Spacepedia: Relevant Information

(Some of these are transcribed word for word, and others (generally less immediately story-relevant) are summarized for ease of reading.)

Lemuria: "An ancient marine civilization recorded in legends. It's unique, advanced technologies are difficult to use. Also, Lemurians had achieved great mastery over many art-related fields, such as music, painting, literature, architecture, and carving. In 2034, the ruins of an underwater city were discovered to the southeast of Linkon City, proving the existence of Lemuria."

Tenebra/Tenebrae: Those who broke the Hunter's Code and engage in illegal activities, like protocore smuggling. They often have ties to secret organizations and carry out covert missions behind the scenes. They are actively pursued by the Hunter's Association.

Lumiere: "In the midst of the 2034 Chronorift Catastrophe, a mysterious hunter emerged, taking down numerous formidable Wanderers and rescuing countless citizens in Linkon City. This enigmatic hunter played a crucial role in resolving the crisis. Their true identity remains shrouded in mystery, and after the catastrophe, they disappeared without a trace. They appeared again in the last two years, with rumors suggesting that they have already transformed into Tenebra."

N109 Zone: "Once a bustling technology hub, it is now one of the most dangerous areas after the catastrophe occurred. Surrounded by other no-hunt zones, it has evolved into lawless land where danger and opportunity coexsist. It is rife with violence and crime. With illicit trade and dangerous research, many of its activities are related to protocores and Wanderers. Its many benefits have driven countless outlaws to risk their lives. **The Origin of the N109 Zone's Name: "The N109 Zone, also known as No-Hunt Zone No. 109, does not belong to the 108 regions resignated officially as no-hunt zones by the Hunters Association. Prolonged energy fluctuations and dangerous Wanderers are characteristics of a no-hunt Zone. The Wanderer threat in the N109 Zone has been suppressed, but its inherent dangers persist due to the complex web of factions and poor living conditions. Consequently, it has earned the reputation of being "No-Hunt Zone No. 109 because it's difficult to enter and even more dangerous than a typical no-hunt Zone."

Onychinus: "A mysterious faction stationed in the N109 Zone. Unlike other shady groups, Onychinus is omnipresent. They have connections everywhere, forming a vast web of sin to control every illegal activity."

The Nest: An information hub moonlighting as an exclusive bar. "A complex network brimming with Intel and secrets unknown to the public."

Josephine: FMC's grandmother. Presumed dead.

Eve and the Witnits - Caleb and Evie

Because it'd be wrong not to feature the lovebirds as their own thing especially when the AU is supposed to be about THEM. It's kind of hard when Philip is the only three of these characters we got to hear talk as himself is all...

Because they're friends as children in this universe I imagine their dynamic is different but not that different. But don't worry, Caleb's still dumb as rocks.

"You'll come back, right Caleb?"

NEW OC JUST DROPPED!!!

Caleb Lewin! Biological son of Henri Lewin!

He came into existence thanks to the fact Henri wished his existence by a Nova, aka making a wish.

Caleb is known as the Animal Astral, just as how Henri is known as the Doctor Astral. He's normally pretty attached to Henri, although, if there's people Henri likes, he'll inmediately latch onto them too thanks to the fact he's knida feral.

He acts like a liiiitle polar bear that wants to play with other people too :D

Witteclaw Siblings cause I’m a mess over them

Philip “Pep” Clawthorne

-Him and Salamander are twins, both of them were bout 2 years old at the time of Caleb’s passing

-He was named after his uncle, and following Caleb’s death Evelyn had considered changing his name for a while, but decided against it as Caleb had chosen it (he mainly prefers going by Pep)

-Became a palisman carver like his dad, granted he was one of the worst in the Clawthorne family at carving, but hey he had fun so-

-Married and had a daughter named Aclima. (He’s the ancestor for the modern day Clawthornes, Dell, Eda, and Lilith)

-He has a magpie palisman! Her name was Pecan.

-He’s a completely magicless witch.

Salamander Clawthorne

-The older of the twins

-Far more serious than his younger siblings (had a sorta season 1 Lilith personality)

-Always tasked with keeping Pep and Lochlyn out of trouble (easier said than done)

-Is the most magically skilled between himself and his siblings. He has some health issues with his bike sac though, such as dizziness and fainting tendencies when he overexerts himself.

-Him and Pep both have very faint memories of their dad, they hardly remember what he was like though (Evelyn tends not to share much as bringing Caleb up is a rather sensitive subject)

-His palisman is an american kestrel named Oatmeal

Lochlyn Clawthorne

-The youngest Clawthorne!

-Evelyn was pregnant with her at the time of Caleb’s death, she’d planned to give Caleb the news on the day of his death (so he never learned that he was going to have a daughter-)

-Has relatively weak magic, as casting spells is rather exhausting for her (she’s highly skilled with potions though!)

-Dedicated most of her life to studying and developing cures for curses

-Moved back in with Evelyn near the end of her mother’s life to take care of her

-Her palisman is a Lidth’s Jay that she named Brioche

Under Deepspace 04: Under Twilight, pt 1-10

01: Family: FMC heads home to visit with her Grandmother and Caleb; they discuss Josephine's migraines, and how Caleb has got a reputable long-care ward all set up so she can be taken care of. Josephine mentions that she should have lunch with Li Shen, and Caleb says that even the worlds busiest man has to eat sometime, and that her number one priority should be keeping herself safe. FMC heads outside to check a Metaflux blip, and Caleb follows her.

.

02: Interlude: FMC and Caleb banter about him being overly cautious. He goes to the store, and she walks around the block, not seeing anything suspicious until she realizes the source of the fluctuation is moving. It appears to be a suspicious man wearing a cap; she gives chase, but feels an intense pain in her right arm, like being stabbed. The man gets away, but Caleb catches up to her, and points out her injury, and wants to go after the cause of it.

.

03: Within Reach: Caleb is visibly agitated that FMC is trying to hide the situation from him ("Can't you trust me now that we're all grown-up?") FMC says she has to rely on herself, and that Caleb can't protect her forever. He's frustrated ("Why is that a problem? If not me, who could you possibly turn to for... () You wouldn't get it even if I told you, pip-squeak. Forget it.") They head back to the house, FMC says he can go by himself, he tells her to hide the blood on her sleeve before she comes inside. After Caleb goes inside and closes the door, there is an explosion. When she comes to, FMC has been blown back, and the house is on fire. On the pavement is a necklace with an engraved dogtag: When U Come Back.

.

04: A Real Nightmare: The explosion has been determined to be an accident caused by Metaflux fluctuations. The news states that Metaflux-related explosions have wounded 35 people and killed 2. Tara comes in and finds FMC in the office; she has been performing several missions and Metaflux-related investigations. She refuses to believe it was an accident. When trying to stand up to speak to Jenna, FMC gets dizzy and unstable. Greyson calls to remind her that she has a medical appointment that day. Jenna tells her to take care of her health first; FMC notes that Li Shen will be worried if she doesn't go.

.

05: Waiting: Upon arriving at the hospital, FMC goes to meet Li Shen, but he's heading to surgery. He's been working overtime due to the increase in Wanderer attacks. She decides to wait in the hallway for him to get back.

.

06: Saying Goodbye: FMC has a dream/memory of the day Caleb left for the Aerospace Academy. Caleb uses his Evol (Telekinesis?) to snatch his goodbye-gift, before asking FMC to put it on him. It's all very sweet.

.

07: Frozen Greetings: FMC comes to in Li Shen's office. He apparently had to carry her in after 3 attempts to wake her. He chides her about not taking care of herself.

.

08: Return to Sender: Li Shen tells FMC that he regrets discharging her from the hospital early, and gives her a fingerprint-locked box her grandmother left with him. He tells her to go home and rest, that he will see her off himself, though she needs to wait outside; but a protofield forms in the middle of the room, and combat is initiated.

.

09: COMBAT

.

10: Secret: FMC realizes there's something wrong with Li Shen's right hand and arm, that it's covered in frost and ice.*1 He backs away from her when she tries to help, and tells her to keep her distance. Once he has the situation under control, he gives her the box, and once she starts to leave, he gives some advice about grief. Once she's gone, Li Shen recalls conversation with Josephine: she has refused further treatment, and asks Li Shen if he remembers that he promised to take care of FMC is the worst-case scenario happens, and that by helping her, he helps himself. Coming back to the present, Li Shen thinks 'It shouldn't have come to this.'

.

.

*1, Important to note that Li Shen's right arm is effectively dead at his side from the moment they get out of the protofield to the moment when he returns from the flashback. And it still doesn't appear to have full range of movement even then.

some lil oc portraits!! i love doing semirealism arts so much

(commission info // kofi)

[dexalyys]

just read through psf and i love it!! dyou have an idea for where/when the reboot will be? :O

i’m honestly not sure? i’d say definitely some point this year, though it’ll largely depend on how various irl stuff pans out for me—finding a job, managing college work, etc—but i’m thinking sometime around june maybe ? when it comes to the official re-release anyway (which, in case i forgot to mention or anyone’s missed it, will be hosted on comicfury ^_^)

though as a disclaimer, i wouldn’t say this is set in stone …. i’ve got plans to redesign the main cast again (incl. new individual refs) (i hate making refs) and there’s a handful of things i want to rewrite. primarily ch1 in its entirely, which i’m planning to split into two sides, with side A being bunbear-focused and side B being seasnake-focused prior to either duo actually meeting :3c
