Deinósavros - meet the members!

This is a comprehensive list of the current ocs that i have for this dorm specifically - may or may not be updated to add more, in the future. if/when i get more ideas. somewhat long post, so be warned. (p.s: these characters, as well as other ones that i've posted on this blog, are now open for interactions through the ask box!) - Mod Moss ____________________ Housewarden;

(made in picrew) [twst styled pic/spite of him in uniform soon to come]

“You can, you should, and if you’re brave enough to start, you will.”

School: Royal Sword Academy

[Deinósavros] [the dorm was founded on the ambition of the king of monsters]

Full Name: Kaiyō Rūrābīsuto

Nicknames: Kai-kai, King, and Hippie (by Taranis)

Grade/Class: Year 2 (Sophomore)/Class (No.2-A)

Birthday: August 22 (Leo)

Age: 18 yrs old

Height: 7’8” (233.68 cm)

Race: Beastman (Kaiju - aquatic dragon - subspecies)

Dominant Hand: Left

Homeland: Coral sea

Club: Swim club Leader

Best Subjects: Practical magic, conjuration

Worst Subject: Flying

Hobbies: Taekwondo, and welding/metalworking

Pet Peeves: dorm members not following rules/instructions, other dorm housewardens telling him how to run his dorm

Fears: wouldn’t you like to know, weather boy?

Favorite Food: Sushi, and Spicy Udon

Least Favorite Food: anything veggie based

Talent: Glassblowing (making stained glass murals). its a sort of de-stresser activity for him.

Unique Magic: “Inferno” Incantation: “Don’t get heatstroke!” [The user can store and accumulate heat from any source - even other peoples fire/heat based magic attacks/um’s. They can utilize the energy for any purpose. They can unleash it all at once upon the point of release, in either many minor bursts of heat or one big wave of heat, to easily over exert opponents, melt surrounds, or boil/evaporate water sources dry. It makes the user scolding hot to the touch and the heated wave attacks are more blue then the typical red.]

Trivia: He’s loosely based on Godzilla. He gained the title of Housewarden in Deinósavros after only being in the school for two weeks during his first year. swiftly defeating the previous housewarden in just two attacks. He is royalty, only child. Honors student. He comes off as a quiet, strict, and composed person. but despite his usual standoffish nature, he will always lend a helping hand to those who are brave enough to ask him for it, and will always leap right in to protecting his dorm members, even to his own physical determent. is actually a very chill and understanding guy underneath the scary exterior and strict/traditional mindset. He has a tail growing out from his lower back that comes to a point, the tail weighs as much as a kangaroo tail is around 20kg, and is just as long as a kangaroo tail as well (43.5in/110cm). And has gills on the sides of his neck that aren’t very visible, when outside of water. The tail is black like his hair, but has crystal-esque protrusions/spikes of varying sides growing down the “spine” of the tail, from base to tip, that are the same color as his skin spots. Even has some going up his back/spine. These crystal-esque protrusions/spikes, along with his eyes, also appear to glow whenever he uses his unique magic or is in a dark place, they are also somewhat see through - like stained glass. But a lot more durable and sharp.

Character Summary: "The arrogance of men is thinking nature is in their control and not the other way around.“

Talent: Reading the stars/sky, predicting the weather/a weather event before it happens

Unique Magic: “Rollin’ Thunder” Incantation: “Shocking, isn’t it?” [Conjures a raging electric storm around the position of the caster. The user can control the properties of the storm, such as rain, lightning, and cloud density - to make the area darker. They are able to control the direction in which storm clouds go or absorb the rain or lightning to create their own storm clouds that can be fully controlled. can absorb any electric magic throw at him or electricity in the near vicinity to boost his own magics power level. Is more effectively used outside or open/big spaces.]

Trivia: He’s, loosely, based on king ghidorah - the king of monsters eternal enemy. Honors student. He is royalty, he has an older brother set for the throne and a younger sister. hes the middle child. He usually comes off as boisterous, cocky, and dedicated. is known to be rather suave and silver tongued when he tried to get what he wants - doesn't care for authority but follows it out of necessity/obligation. like Kaiyō he'd do anything for his dorm members. he often holds lessons for the newer dorm members, to teach them how to survive. ones that his dormmates eagerly attend and even show up early for on scheduled days/times, despite the.. brutal and non merciful methods he uses to teach. He can shake the ends of his spiked tails to make a maraca sound, like a rattlesnake can, when he's angry or trying to intimidate. He has a forked tongue like a snake and his four main canine teeth are more pronounced than normal, mainly the top two. Both tails weigh as much as a kangaroo tail is around 20kg, and are both just as long as a kangaroo tail as well (43.5in/110cm). He and Kaiyō have been rivals since childhood, and he is always training and challenging Kaiyō for the spot as housewarden. Hasn’t won so far, though.

School: Royal Sword Academy

[Deinósavros] [the dorm was founded on the ambition of the king of monsters]

Birthday: ??? (??)

Age: 16 yrs old

Height: 6’8” (203.2 cm)

Dominant Hand: Right

Homeland: Blair Valley

Club: Cooking (master chef)

Best Subjects: Flying, and Ancient Curses

Worst Subject: Alchemy

Hobbies: Cooking, Singing, and people watching from high places

Pet Peeves: people being physical with him (or others) without permission/consent, crowded places, sudden/rapid movements, and small/enclosed spaces

Fears: Fire.. (others wielding fire, people using fire magic nearby him, even things such as closed off fireplaces, firepits, and candles can make him panic - he has been except from alchemy classes for this reason)

Favorite Food: Kibidango (millet dumplings)

Least Favorite Food: Shellfish (he's allergic to it)

Talent: Fire magic (he despises that fact, though once he was ecstatic)

Unique Magic: “Wing into it” Incantation: “Be not afraid..” [The user has or is able to manifest wings that grow out of their back (upper back, mid back, lower back) and can use them for flight, the user being naturally gifted at anything aerial. They may also protect from rear attacks, the base joints being able to turn and thus letting them rotate the wings for full body protection, or detach and re-grow for quick getaways. They can grow multiple wings if they wish, always in pairs. Either two, four, or six. The fewer wings the faster they are as there is less weight to lug around, but the more wings the better their defense is - as the wings are able to be used as sort of biological pseudo shields or used for melee attacks. The feathers are unnaturally durable despite looking like and feeling like regular feathers..]

Trivia: He is of noble blood, being the adopted only child of a wealthy merchant. i suppose you could say hes inspired by mothra? ? He flinches/physically recoils whenever someone makes skin to skin contact with him (specifically with his scars), he doesn’t like his scars being touched by anyone else other than himself or people he’s close to/trusts. He's very insecure about his scars. He also has some internalized religious trauma due to his upbringing, and becomes anxious/unsettled by religious talk or imagery. The scars on his face/neck are also on different parts of his upper body as well (arms, back, & chest), his lower body being spared - they’re burn scars specifically. from an event in his childhood that he has persistent nightmares about each night. causing him to put off sleep for as long as he can by any means necessary. one of his classmates is magigram famous, and he accidently ended up in the background of a selfie once, and that classmates fans have being strangely enamored by him ever since. he was pressured into making an account, but doesn't use it much.

“Kuhi no ka lima, hele no ka maka. – (Where the hands move, there let the eyes follow.)”

School: Royal Sword Academy

[Deinósavros] [the dorm was founded on the ambition of the king of monsters]

Full Name: Eleu Neart

Nicknames: Bambi (by Taranis & Kaiyō), Sonic-hoof (fellow clubmates)

Grade/Class: Year 1 (freshmen)/Class (No.1-B)

Birthday: September 11th (Virgo)

Age: 16 yrs old

Height: 7’0”/213.36 cm without antlers, 7’6”/228.6 cm with antlers)

Race: Beastman (Kaiju - deer - subspecies)

Dominant Hand: Ambidextrous

Homeland: Shaftlands (the seaside jungle/taiga forest, known as “The Deep Bark”)

Club: Track & Field

Best Subjects: Defense magic, Astrology

Worst Subject: Mathematics

Hobbies: wood carving, fruit carving, bird watching, and foraging.

Pet Peeves: Loud sounds, something sharp scraping glass or metal, people who berate him for not speaking.

Fears: Anyone bigger than him/other members of his dorm/predator species beastmen

Favorite Food(s): Mango, Lemon, Papaya (he eats them like apples)

Least Favorite Food: anything that's meat based.

Talent: Wood working/whittling

Unique Magic: “Motion Sense” Incantation: “hello, my ol’ heart..” [The user can detect objects or living beings around them by detecting their movement, allowing them to see even objects or beings that are invisible or obscured (by fog for example), as long as they are in motion. May be accomplished by detecting kinetic energy, utilizing the Doppler Effect to detect the distortions caused by waves hitting or passing through a moving object, an extremely powerful sense of touch or other methods. Precision can vary - even a being standing perfectly still may still have a beating heart or twitching muscles which can be sensed if the user focuses hard enough. can be used through walls, floors, or bodies of water. anywhere they can sense vibrations and whatnot. The user can easily get overwhelmed if there's too much motion to keep track of.]

Trivia: He’s loosely based on the deer that reside on skull island, but tweaked a bit. He has almost scary inhuman levels of speed/dexterity/reflexes, despite his large scale body size, and was hazed into joining track by some upperclassmen despite wanting to join Botany.. but quite enjoys being useful to others on a team. he's effortlessly out ran many rabbit beastmen and wolf beastmen during practice and track meets. He knows how to speak, and is fluent in the three most common languages used in this world, but prefers to communicate with others through gesturing, facial expressions, and body language. though a majority of the time he uses sign language, instead of struggling through charades.. even in places/around people he's comfortable with, he still wont really talk and still just sign. When he does speak its typically in this worlds version of the Hawaiian language. His first name means “alert, lively” in Hawaiian, and his surname means “energy, bold, vigor (+many more)” in (Scottish) gaelic. He also has a lot of social anxiety, from being an outcast due to being weaker than other beastmen, and from his subspecies of beastmen being a prey species. Being raised to avoid conflict at all costs, to be both quiet and quick to avoid attention, all that. So he’d rather flee at the first chance than waste time bargaining for his life. He's naturally skittish and distrusting of others, especially rich people/predator species. but has a big heart and always tries to assist others, fellow prey species/non-’monsters’, despite his fears/self doubt.

Fears: yet to be discovered/determined..

Favorite Food: anything/everything, he's not picky. Though meat products are high on his list.

Least Favorite Food: it's all good bitch!!

Talent: Tracking/hunting, and being able to recite a dictionary verbatim - even backwards.

Unique Magic: “Battle cry” Incantation: “Respect my roar!” [The user is able to shout so loud that they can blow away or break objects with their ferocious vocal cords which can cause vibrations. They may also be able to emit a roar strong enough to damage hearing, cause fear, or paralyzation. The force caused by the roar may even cancel out opposing attacks. It can also be used to alert someone of the user's location. The user may roar for only as long as they have breath. The user is powerless if they are unable to roar, be it due to illness, exhaustion, or vocal nullification of some kind.]

Trivia: He’s based off of the skullscrawlers from kong skull island. He’s the head of the 'student honors society' in RSA. He’s from a rather dysfunctional family, a descendant of the noble military family who own/oversee the Archipelago. Their home was made into a burrowed out large inclined part of land of the Archipelago, that extends down into the earth - like an underground mansion. He has a lisp and hiss’s on his S’s. he has a very high metabolism, and is always hungry - finding it hard to satisfy it, and not usually having the resources to do so before attending rsa despite being nobility. He gorges on the abundance of food from the cafeteria during lunch - but doesn't like it when others watch him eat, so he goes somewhere secluded to feed on what he's gathered.. His jaws possess two rows of serrated, razor-sharp teeth, on the top and bottom. His tongue is inhumanly long, and prehensile. Can unhinge his jaw like a snake. His pupils are horizontal and somewhat resemble those of frogs and toads (same with the double eyelid thing). Just like Kaiyō, he has hidden gills on his neck, allowing him to breathe on land and underwater indefinitely. He uses two custom folding walking sticks with both arms in order to move around, as his legs were not formed right when he was born, bent in the wrong ways, and can’t properly walk without the sticks. also only 4 fingers/toes on his hands/feet instead of the normal 5 (his pinkies’ are missing). But he gets by just fine, and is quite happy. He has an unnaturally high physical durability, muscle strength (upper body) - and mobility/speed on land despite his disability. (when in his aquatic form his disability doesn't have precedence since his legs become a single tail). Need's glass's for reading and when in bright area's as he has sensitive eyes, doesn't wear them at night/in the dark.

Dirk here, and I’m looking to find other Alpha kids. And Hal, too. I don’t have any particular memories or anything, mostly adhering to canon. I’m just looking to reconnect with my friends.

I’m 20, male, and I’m currently in college for metalwork. I like rap music, tattooing, silversmithing, skateboarding, and a conglomerate of other imitably rad stuff.

If you’re one of the Alphas, or even a Beta kid, feel free to interact with this and we can exchange discords. You can also message me on my page, @hephaestuztestified .

I’d prefer you be 18+, too.

Thanks for reading. Dirk, out.

Go message him if this sounds familiar!

BALITANG INTERNASYONAL: Eiffel Tower temporarily shuts down due to unforseen strike

(Written by Adrien Agreste / TF1 Info reporter for OneNETnews)

PARIS, FRANCE -- Paris' very own The Eiffel Tower, an iconic representation of Paris and French culture hits the spotlight, where they grab the world's attention. However, it is not for the incredible panoramas, nor the architectural wonder in the point-of-view, but for an unforeseen closure caused by a strike among its French-based workers.

Reaching a towering height of 324 meters, the Eiffel Tower has magnetized tourists globally, attracting millions annually to behold its regal charm and sweeping views of the City of Light. From romantic proposals to family excursions, the lattice iron structure has been witness to numerous cherished occasions, cementing its position as a requisite destination for voyagers from all corners of the earth.

Yet, amidst its magnetic allure, the Eiffel Tower finds itself embroiled in a labor discord (but not on the actual chatting-based platform, nor the American-animated series of 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'). Staff members, voicing grievances regarding salaries, working conditions, and job stability, have mobilized for industrial action, halting regular operations. The timing of this unrest is poignant, aligning with the centenary of the founder's demise in the early New Year of 2024, further accentuating the tower's significance in the French populace's collective psyche.

Travelers anticipating an ascent to its zenith or a close-up view of its intricate metalwork now face disappointment, encountering barriers and closures. While some had meticulously planned their journeys months ahead, others are now hastily re-arranging their own schedule, heeding advice to delay their visits until the strike reaches a full legal resolution.

The repercussions of the closure extend beyond the Parisian cobblestones, striking a chord with tourists and authorities alike, acknowledging the Eiffel Tower's symbolic value, not solely as a tourist magnet but as a cultural cornerstone. As one of the world's most identifiable landmarks, its closure acts as a stark reminder of the interconnectedness of labor rights, tourism and national identity for the aforementioned people in France.

Negotiations to mediate the conflict are underway, with governmental bodies and local union representatives immersed in talks to seek a resolution that caters to the workers' concerns while mitigating the impact on visitors. Nevertheless, as the strike endures, uncertainties loom regarding the broader implications for France's tourism sector and its reputation as a hospitable destination.

In the interim, tourists like you must be strongly advised to stay informed via official social media channels, and explore alternative attractions like Roubaix in a different French city, as they navigate the vibrant Parisian streets. While the Eiffel Tower may currently be overshadowed by the said labor discord, its legacy as a symbol of tenacity and human innovation remains unwavering, a tribute to the enduring fortitude of the French people.

Another general meme: rules: repost, don’t reblog. just pick a muse of yours and fill it out. [though I did get tagged]

basics

▸ is your muse tall/short/average? Canonically, Jonathan is 6'3'', or 190.5 cm, and I see no reason not to keep his canon height. So, he's definitely tall. That's mostly due to the Marfan Syndrome, but also his parents were decently tall for their ethnicities and ages.

▸ are they okay with their height? He sees no reason not to be. If he was short he'd just wear bigger shoes.

▸ what’s their hair like? A firm natural 3C, the color of hickory wood. It's peppered with Bride of Frankenstein-esque white streaks, as well as strands of silver. It's usually worn loose and down to his shoulders, though sometimes he'll tie it back or utilize hairpins. His body hair is a fine grayish-black in color, and very thin. Carpet matches the drapes and whatnot.

▸ do they spend a lot of time on their hair/with their grooming? At least an hour each morning/night on maintaining his hair, if not two. Lot of creams and powders and hot oil treatments to get that looking acceptable. When he's in prison, however, all that goes out the proverbial window. As for the rest of his body hair, he cuts and roughly shapes it every half year or so. It's slow growing and therefore low maintenance in his eyes. Does not manscape, though. He's too lazy to take a weed whacker to that apart from when it gets itchy.

▸ does your muse care about their appearance? Aside from the hair? Not really, no. He views his hair as his best feature, that's plain enough to see. Also he has a limited amount of energy and spends most of his days unconscious now that he's crossed into the twilight of his life.

▸ does your muse care about what others think about them? No? He's old as shit, why would he? Aside from being varying levels of annoyed when people press him to come out of retirement, that is. Then you can get bent. Preferably with a cactus.

preferences

▸ indoors or outdoors? I said in a previous meme that he's wholly indifferent, so either.

▸ rain or sunshine? Rain, no contest. He enjoys the smell, and just generally being around it soothes him.

▸ forest or beach? Forest....at least there's significantly less of a chance he accidentally eats sand, and he can't swim anyways.

▸ precious metals or gems? *Archie cries in lapidary with weird hours* Also mentioned this before! He used to do his own custom metalwork on the side, and quite enjoys how 925 sterling silver and platinum hold up. Of course, his scythe is reinforced steel coupled with meteoric iron and the claw gauntlet is various alloys.

▸ flowers or perfumes? Perfumes. He is often to be found wearing a few squirts from a [usually stolen] bottle of Viktor and Rolf's Spicebomb.

▸ personality or appearance? Appearance just for a quick fuck, personality if he really wants to get to know a person. And believe me, he'll let you know if he wants to get to know you. At his age, he sees little reason to beat around the bush.

▸ being alone or being in a crowd? Far easier to blend in with crowds. ;)

▸ order or anarchy? Literally does not give two shits.

▸ painful truths or white lies? Depends on the truth. He may be smart enough to see through lies, but that doesn't mean the truth doesn't hurt. Sometimes it's better to lie to him, even if he won't necessarily believe it.

▸ science or magic? A man of science through and through, although like I've said on Discord if there was ever a magical chance for him to have both sets of [relatively functional] genitalia he'd take it. He's just not someone who's comfortable with one or the other simply due to how long he's lived without having bottom surgery in the first place.

▸ peace or conflict? Peace please god he is so old and so very tired.

▸ night or day? He's always been borderline nocturnal, so night. Even if he can't see for shit.

▸ dusk or dawn? Dawn. There's something comforting about an early morning, where no one is awake to question or hurt you. Plus, morning sex lmao

▸ many acquaintances or a few close friends? A small number of close friends. Arguably, all he's ever wanted was to trust people.

▸ reading or playing a game? Reading. Again, no contest there. It's a core trait of the canon character that he's bookish.

questionnaire

▸ what are some of your muse’s bad habits? Files his nails with his scythe, cannot communicate with other people for shit as he finds expressing emotion physically painful, usually has sleep for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Chronically dehydrated as being born premature causes a misfire in his body's thirst and hunger signals.

▸ has your muse lost anyone close to them? how has it affected them? Multiple of his children. Also his father Gerasimos, but he never knew his father and will forever remain indifferent. The postpartum depression hit him hard, progressing into Complex Bereavement Disorder. He also kept his offspring in jars like the old timey circus freakshow pickled punks for a number of years [far longer than necessary].

▸ what are some fond memories your muse has? Caitlin Snow calling him "Dad" for the first time, realizing he loved Katana while the Squad was on a mission in Jakarta to gather intel regarding a new branch of the triads that had popped up there. Holding his daughter with Iceberg before she took her last breath, honestly getting knocked up in his 60's was a pleasant surprise. Hanging out with Kite-Man has also been generally pretty good for him.

▸ is it easy for your muse to kill? Physically? He's tall but he's scrawny, quite easily overpowered by those of a higher weight class or with the ability to build actual muscle. So....more trouble than it's worth, sometimes. His real strength lies in his ability to manipulate; he doesn't need any fancy chemicals to drive a man to suicide.

▸ what’s it like when your muse breaks down? Not pretty. He self-mutilates, and it's a choice of either stopping him or watching him rip and tear himself out of existence. Crying is rare, but can happen. Still, he prefers not to show weakness in front of other people.

▸ is your muse capable of trusting someone with their life? It's an honor if he does, and a sign of respect. So far, the only people who have received that honor were Floyd Lawton, my version of Hugo Strange, Charles "Chuck, Charlie" Brown, and Tatsu Toro.

Tagging:

....IDK I'm tired, if you see this and want to do it go for it?

This was a quick one! I managed to finish this in no time, and choosing not to record the process is probably what made it possible. Slats from upcycled play house boards, set in reclaimed threaded rods, spaced on the two center rods with equally reclaimed stainless steel pipe. All metal parts came from waste bins at work. It definitely looks reclaimed, but I was going for function over form - which might also explain the low time requirement. #upcycling #plants #stand #balcony #slats #threadedRods #reclaimed #woodworking #metalworking #nuts #Maker #MakerMovement #MakersOfInstagram #MakersGonnaMake #MakerCommunity #BeInspiredWithDominic Join me on Discord - Link in bio! — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/9c2TWJE

Lore Preview: Corporations

Well before the explosion of technomancy in the witching world, corporate empires towered in the sky. Their power fell over people in waves, with once-in-a-lifetime opportunities plucking young people out of the gutter and bankruptcies sending them straight back. As their long fingers of influence spread across the continent and the world, fueled by the electricity of technomancy’s birth, there emerged three leading cities in the UK: London, Manchester, and Glasgow. The strong devoured the weak, until a few frontrunners found themselves sitting at the very top of the peak, whispering in the ears of politicians and throwing gold (and a quiet ruin) at any problem that might stand in their way.

Continue reading below the cut!

With Britain suddenly a home to new innovation, with new jobs emerging by the day, immigration skyrocketed. Those seeking opportunity flooded into the cities, and housing became a dire issue. With scarcity of most everything, the people living on the streets soon found themselves living off the ground, higher and higher until the sway of the buildings could be seen with the blustery winds of rainy days. Communities have sprung up all over, winding round the city like weeds choked of sunlight.

MANCHESTER’S BIG HITTER: BLISHEN METALWORKS

They began their life right in Manchester, founded by Chistopher Blishen in 1851. The silent cofounder, Xurl, was a highly skilled goblin; when he is mentioned at all, it is said that he is nowhere in the paperwork because the laws at the time prohibited him from business ownership. From humble beginnings in repair work and watchmaking, they made enhancements and innovations that put them - and Manchester - on the map. A longstanding tradition of pocket watch gifting as a witch comes of age has been cemented by their craftsmanship, only made possible by Xurg’s lifetime of study in metal-charming.

After Christopher’s death in 1880, Goblins were no longer welcome to apply to work with them. As one of the few businesses to welcome creatures into their ranks, it was taken as a blow to the wider community. This caused a great deal of tension in Manchester, and it wasn’t until the advent of Tickers, technomancy-infused pocket watches, that they changed this policy again. It is a tense proposition for these Goblins who work within Blishen’s walls; working in the business built on the back of their ancestors’ knowledge, many feeling it has been every bit stolen from them, it is a powderkeg.

This company is widely rumoured to spy on users of Tickers.

One of the few corporations to provide allocated housing, a towering megastructure that was stark white when it first sprang up, Blishen sees witches and Goblins living side by side. The party line is that they do so in harmony, but the reality is much more fraught.

GLASGOW’S BIG HITTER: PROTEGO INC

Though they have been around for a long time and under many names, first conceptualised by Artair McLean sometime in the 1890s, their real start wasn’t until 1920. It was well known that one could barter protective magics and wards from this business, even for a time specialising in bodyguards, but it was Grindelwald’s cut across Europe that saw business booming.

The next witching war brought further business, and the model changed altogether. Sewing discord and damaging competition was more lucrative for them than investing in innovation, and so it was by consuming other businesses that they became the main interest in Glasgow - and across the country.

Technomancy saw further changes to their business, with the PearlDust virus offering a great bright window of opportunity. Their work in wartime defenses is all but forgotten, traditional magical research at a near standstill, as they funnel their time and workforce into securing technomancy’s many conduits.

This company strongly lobbies against legislation regarding technomancy and conduits.

It is telling that many of Protego Inc’s highest paid employees specialise in proprietary law. With their research departments going wildly underfunded as they cannibalise and buy out other companies left, right, and centre, their focus has shifted almost entirely to locking down the products they’ve made or obtained. It is a sad truth then that there is a trickle of skilled programmers and inventors leaving the business - with little to turn to but the many hacker collectives springing up around Glasgow.

LONDON’S BIG HITTER: CHIRON

The youngest of the corporations listed by far, but perhaps the most insidious and streamlined. So named for a renowned healer, established in 1965, this corporation has never strayed from their sleek centaur branding. They have a team hard at work developing new augmentations, and a fleet of technomancy healers, often called Renders, who install them.

With a lack of competition, prices have surged. This has led to a surge of unlicensed Renders, sometimes leading to unforeseen side effects or complete rejection.

Those who take advantage of the services they offer have the choice of opting into a payment plan, with interest. These plans are subject to steep consequences, including but not limited to forceful surrender of the augmentation and loss of any equity offered. For all that people fear losing their homes and their valuables, there is nothing quite like the fear that runs cold across a person when a Collector comes knocking. The augment is claimed back with no replacement offered, and the client is often left with the outstanding balance of this butchery.

Despite this, the company emphasises their healing influence, and makes great efforts to appear charitable. They also heavily lobby for longer sentences for people supplying and receiving unlicensed augmentations based on Chiron technology, and worse for backalley Renders.

The landscape of London has changed drastically for their presence, with the housing situation reaching critical levels and many living in houses shared between several families. Those who seek privacy must seek it above the smog line, in high rises that seem to creak from a breath pulled in too sharply.

A quick note: Goblins are playable characters.
