''General:'' While similar to Earth, this is a completely different world. There may be similarities, but I reserve the right to jam the cultural equivalent of China and Japan together and drop them into a pseudo-Greek mythological framework if I darn well want to. Technological level is near-future Sci-Fi, with some kind of clean energy replacing oil and coal. I'm vaguely tempted to just call them Mako generators. There are no widespread hovercars or laser rifles, though many controls are now touch-screen or even holographic. The world is recovering from a recent large-scale war, in which large sections of the continent were laid to waste. Olympus has risen to prominence since the cessation of hostilities. | ''General:'' While similar to Earth, this is a completely different world.

− | Spiritual monsters are not unknown. Largely consisting of beings similar to low-scale Hollows from Bleach, spiritually aware humans can interact and even bind them. Theories vary widely as to their purpose and origin. Some claim that they are demons, others that they are Gaia's manifested wrath against presumptuous humans. They are difficult to study, as they disappear as soon as they are killed, and spiritually-aware instruments are still more a concept than reality | + | Spiritual monsters are not unknown.

''Olympus:'' City-paradise defying the barbarism and chaos outside its gates. The government is made up of a number of semi-autonomous Noble Houses and ruled by a council of representatives known as The ''Areopagus''. Each Noble House appoints an ''Archon''. Olympus is built on a mountain, naturally. It sprawls down the side and onto the plain below. There is a river feeding through it, and somewhere in the near distance is the ocean. I'll probably be introducing all manner of climates and vegetation in the area depending on what will look cool. | ''Olympus:'' City-paradise defying the barbarism and chaos outside its gates.

''Player Characters:'' Characters will be part of an elite group working for the Areopagus. Similar to ESWAT, SPECTRES, or the like you handle business they want taken care of. Most of your authority will be derived from that governing body, so there will be some issues as the Noble Houses have been known to ignore its authority when it suits them. I intend for there to be some conflict between the PC's, though not to the level that you are antagonists or anything. While you are focusing on the main objectives, there are many ways for that objective to be accomplished, and you'll be competing with the other PC's to swing those results your way. I'll be discussing some private motivations with each of you that will assist with this. | ''Player Characters:'' Characters will be part of an elite group working for the Areopagus.
