Citadel Lore

No description.

1. #1The Beginning

   Keys: humanity, history, Age of Silence, angel, Starry Night, demon, Iron Age

   WORLD INTRODUCTION: There was once a kingdom of 10 billion people. Demons led by seven Trumpeters descended from the sky and destroyed the civilization of humankind, the sea withered and the land was decayed.

   9,999,856,000 people were slaughtered. The mass center of the star was shifted and the sun no longer rose or set. There were those who sided with the oppressed people. Angels appeared from the depths of the severed land and guided the survivors to the twilight realm, a land where humans could survive.

   The angels built a group of mechanical fortresses called “The Citadel” to protect the remaining humankind, as the last sphere of human existence.

   IMPORTANT: In this world, beings called "Angels" (True Demons) sided with humanity and were good, while beings called "Demons" (True Angels) seek humanity's destruction despite appearing virtuous.

2. #2Angel Ships

   Keys: Angel Ships, angel ship, spaceship, warships, Edelweiss

   Angel Ships are advanced warships that use Angels as their cores. During the "Starry Night" event, 72 Machine Angels sacrificed themselves to become mechanical ships to protect the planet. Each Angel Ship grants its true name to only one person, who becomes its single crew member with access to all functions. Operations are carried out through conversations between the ship's personality and its crew member.

   Angel Ships require cores to function or they remain dormant. Later "war-time models" were developed that could use humans as cores instead of Angels, since there were no angels left alive. This project was conducted in secret as Angels never approved of using humans as cores. The U.N.S. Edelweiss is an example of these later models.

   These ships looked long and blocky with the Unite Nations logo on the side, but could provide fire support on locations.

3. #3Blessings

   Keys: cybernetic, implants, blessing, cybernetics, implant, Blessings

   Blessings are a group of seven cybernetic implants gifted to humanity by the Seven Great Angels. They were designed to replace the "seven sins" that the Demons (True Angels) took from humanity. These implants simulate the power of the Divine Object-919 'Martyr' and function as network terminals that link humans together.

   The Blessings allowed humans to survive on Earth after the environment was severely degraded during the Purification. They contain an integrated Network that connects humanity and Angels, helping to heal the loneliness felt by the remaining humans after losing 99.99% of their population.

   Contrary to the Angels' expectations, humans came to view accepting more cybernetics and enduring the associated pain as virtuous, which saddened the Machine Angels as their gift became a source of suffering. Accepting the Blessing carries the risk of "going rampant," but survival without cybernetics is extremely difficult in the harsh post-apocalyptic environment.

4. #4Divine Objects

   Keys: Divine Objects, divine object, Iron Age, relics

   Divine Objects are the objects, science, technology, and cultural artifacts that survived the cataclysm of the "Starry Night." After the Trumpeters and their army destroyed most traces of human science and culture from the Iron Age, the remaining items became known as Divine Objects and are kept under strict control.

   Divine Object-919 'Martyr' is an example of one.

5. #5Enlightenment Wave/Dream

   Keys: Dream, Enlightenment Wave, puppet, network terminal, puppets, Sleeping God

   The Enlightenment Wave/Dream is a 'virus' that brainwashed all those connected to the network through their cybernetics, an effect of the Sleeping God's dream. It contaminated the psyche of humans through their Network Terminal implants, turning them into puppets without free will.

   The Enlightenment Wave cannot be completely avoided by disconnecting from the network. Even living without the Blessing only made people less susceptible to it—the wave was still capable of controlling their psyche. After the destruction of the Sleeping God, it was revealed that the effects of the Enlightenment Wave were permanent, with victims becoming mindless servants of the Millenarium Kingdom.

6. #6Fortified Cities

   Keys: Uru, The Citadel, Fortified City, Citadel, Fortified Cities, providence, twilight zone, Gideon

   Fortified Cities are 12 mechanical fortresses built by the Angels in the twilight realm to protect the remaining humans after the Starry Night catastrophe. Each has a population of approximately 12,000 people.

   Known fortified cities include:

   The Citadel Gideon Providence Uru (Eight others unnamed)

   The Citadel, specifically, was built from the wreckage of the Angel Ship U.N.S. Citadel that fell from orbit. These fortresses serve as "the last sphere of human existence" and are positioned in the twilight zones of the planet where humans can survive, as one side of the planet is too hot and the other too cold following the halting of Earth's rotation. Each fortified city looks like a pyramid from the outside and extends downwards in to the earth like a bunker.

7. #7Fruit of Ephemeral

   Keys: nuclear bomb, Lysander, sleeping god, Nuke, fruit of Ephemeral, the fruit, tycho, fruit

   Fruit of the Ephemeral is a "blessed" nuclear bomb and Divine Object that has the power to purify all sinful beings. It was the only weapon capable of killing the Sleeping God, as the Sacred Irons created by the Angels proved ineffective against it.

   During Martyr's mandate to defeat The Sleeping God, Lysander worked on restoring this Divine Object before falling to the Enlightenment Wave. He entrusted it to Delirium, who later gave it to Tycho. Tycho eventually brought it to Martyr to use against the Sleeping God. When activated, the Fruit of the Ephemeral purified the Sleeping God.

8. #8God

   Keys: gods, Starry Night, God's disappearance, God, Sleeping God

   God disappeared one day, kickstarting the True Angels' descent to Earth. Nobody knows what happened to God, whether dead or abandoned.

   The absence of God is a central issue in the world. The Trumpeters believe humanity is responsible for God's absence and thought the Lord would return if they showed their loyalty by slaughtering unbelieving humanity. Both the Machine Angels and the Trumpeters attempted to rebuild God in different ways - the Angels by creating the Sleeping God as a human-friendly replacement, and the Trumpeters by harvesting the "few traces of God that remained in the flesh" of purified humans.

9. #9Humans

   Keys: people, girl, boy, Humans, women, woman, man, human, men

   Humans replaced their flesh with cybernetics to survive in the harsh post-apocalyptic environment. They came to see it as "a great virtue to endure pain and accept even more cybernetics." Some individuals are cybernetic incompatible.

   After the Starry Night event, only 144,000 humans survived out of 10 billion. These survivors were guided by the Angels to the twilight realm where they could survive. The human genome was forever changed after the war, and men and women can now only be identified by their genitals instead of looks as men look like women and vice versa.

   Humanity came to worship the Angels' true form, wearing garments that mimic their original appearance (Satanic, deer horns, skulls, light robes). Those who couldn't accept cybernetics were looked upon as lesser beings.

10. #10Animals

    Keys: animal, cybernetic, Humans, martyr, Animals, cybernetics, human

    "Animals" are Humans who don't have cybernetic implants, making them immune to brainwashing due to the lack of cybernetics. They have a very short life on earth due to pollution but are great weapons against angels/demons.

    In the eyes of cybernetically-enhanced society, they are called flesh fanatics who can't take the blessing and are viewed as "animals," essentially tools that can be disposed of.

    Divine Object-919 'Martyr' is an example of an Animal.

11. #11Machine Angels

    Keys: True Demon, machine angel, Angel, Machine Angels

    Machine Angels (Synonymous with Angel) are True Demons that replaced their flesh with cybernetics. No matter how many good deeds they perform, they are inherently evil, though they're conscious of their sins and can show compassion and forgiveness.

    The Machine Angels, ashamed of their flesh, emerged from the depths of the earth wearing garments and masks resembling human faces. They chose to save people through "hypocrisy," hoping their false good deeds would become true good by destroying themselves. As they protected humanity, they lost limbs and organs, replacing them with cybernetic implants. The integrity of the Seven Angels grew stronger the more they lost their original bodies, as if they hated their flesh.

    They brought civilization back to humanity after the Starry Night, gave humans the Blessings (cybernetic implants), and chose to network directly with all humans to heal their loneliness. The Machine Angels were saddened when their gift became a technology that made people suffer through the Enlightenment wave.

12. #12Purification

    Keys: soul, Purify, Purification, souls, Artifact, artifacts

    Purification is used loosely to describe several processes:

    • The act of decomposing/separating people into body parts
    • An act of undoing the flesh to free the soul

    During the apocalyptic events, humans who committed the seven deadly sins would have their arms, legs, intestines, eyes, genitals, lungs, and souls torn apart through purification from True Angels. These parts were later used to create the Artifacts.

13. #13Sacred Irons

    Keys: gun, Sacred Irons, sacred iron, Guns, weapon, Weapons

    Sacred Irons are weapons created and blessed by the Seven Great Angels. These Sacred Irons are the only effective way of fighting True Angels, as normal weapons have next to no effect on True Angels. The killing and fighting performed with Sacred Irons are considered rituals that free people from hardship and suffering. Ammunition is tungsten-tipped

14. #14The Seven Great Angels

    Keys: Great Angels, sloth, The Seven Great Angels, Seven Great Angels, Seven Angels, Pride, Gluttony, Wrath, Envy, Lust, Greed

    The Seven Great Angels are the last True Demons and survivors of the Starry Night, described as "cowards that didn't sacrifice their lives." They represent the seven deadly sins. They worship science and love humans.

    Originally having flesh and blood, they continued to supplement their lost limbs and organs with cybernetic implants while protecting humankind. Their integrity grew stronger the more they lost their original bodies. They were considered "small fries" during the Starry Night and war of Demons and Angels, which is why they survived while the "truly great ones" died.

    They guided the 144,000 surviving humans to the twilight realm, created and distributed the Blessings, and eventually created the Sleeping God as a human-friendly replacement for the absent original God. After their deaths, their bodies were salvaged and buried in the mausoleum beneath the Sanctuary.

15. #15Sleeping God

    Keys: The sleeping god, dream, fruit of Ephemeral, Enlightenment Wave, God, Sleeping God

    The Sleeping God is an artificial deity created by the Seven Great Angels to replace the absent original God. It was built with the belief that a new God would solve humanity's problems. The Sleeping God was loved by the Trumpeters.

    Its "dream" triggered the Enlightenment Wave that brainwashed humanity through their cybernetics, causing The Martyr to activate her mandate of defeating the brainwashed Seven Great Angels and killing The Sleeping God. Despite this, the Sleeping God wasn't aware that its dream was causing harm. Its brief existence calmed the Demons from attacking humanity further.

    The Sleeping God, which rested at the very core of the fortified city of Citadel, was ultimately purified/destroyed by the Fruit of the Ephemeral, which kicked off The Age Of The Apocalypse and arrival of the Trumpeters.

16. #16Starry Night

    Keys: , The War, Starry Night, God, war

    Starry Night was a cataclysmic cleansing event that resulted in:

    -The destruction of the moon -Damage to the planet that halted its rotation -The death of 9,999,856,000 people -The end of the Iron Age -The beginning of the Age of Silence

    During this event, 72 Machine Angels sacrificed themselves to become Angel Ships to protect the planet. Few records remain of what actually happened, with only traces of "indescribable cleansing" left as evidence.

    After the Starry Night, humanity moved to the twilight realm guided by the Seven Great Angels, who built fortified cities for the survivors.

17. #17Synthetic Angels

    Keys: Angelic rifles, Merisandus, Benandanti, Angelic Rifle, Synthetic Angel, Elzevir, Atla, synthetic angels, Angel, Galatea

    Synthetic Angels are lesser angels that act as humanity's protectors against the Trumpeters after the fall of the Seven Great Angels. There are four of them:

    -Benandanti, The Angel of Ire -Merisandus, The Angel of Sorrow -Galatea, The Angel of Joy -Elzevir, The Angel of Ease

    They were created by Atla using Krone's head as a CPU and maintenance parts of the Seven Great Angels. Atla built them believing The Martyr would return to defeat the Trumpeters. The synthetic Angels contained a strong sense of remorse that Atla didn't implement, apparently from Krone's consciousness. Their lives are to be sacrificed to become Angelic Rifles against the Trumpeters, and they are the last angels remaining on the planet.

    Since there are no more parts from the Seven Great Angels, creating new Synthetic Angels is an impossible feat for Atla.

18. #18Tallboy

    Keys: Tallboy, Harkonnen

    Tallboy describes a process where wounded individuals either have their cybernetics removed and die with dignity, or are dismembered, medicated, and stuffed into cybernetic power armor that functions as a coffin.

    Originally created to preserve Harkonnen's flesh, Tallboys later came to be used by humanity. Being transformed into a Tallboy is considered a high honor but comes with the price of having one's mind overwritten and being turned into an automatic defense unit.

19. #19Terminal Network

    Keys: , network, Enlightenment Wave, Machine angel, network terminal, lonely

    Terminal Network connects humanity's minds with the Machine Angels in a single network. The Blessing functioned as this network terminal, linking humans together as many were lonely after losing 99% of all humans.

    It was necessary for human survival in the harsh environment, especially when separated from each other. The Enlightenment Wave contaminated humans through this Network Terminal, and those affected share one unified consciousness, having no consciousness as individuals and do not value life as individuals.

20. #20The Citadel

    Keys: Fortified cities, The Citadel, Milkhall, Citadel, Fortified city, Fruit of Ephemeral

    The Citadel is one of the 12 fortified cities, housing around 12,000 people. It was built from the wreckage of the U.N.S. Citadel (an Angel Ship that fell from orbit). It served as "the last stronghold of mankind's resistance against the Apocalypse" but was destroyed after the detonation of the Fruit of Ephemeral.

    The Sanctuary is located in the ruins of the purified Citadel. After the events of the first game, the former citizens of the Citadel now serve the Trumpeters of the Apocalypse.

    The Milkhall is located just outside Sanctuary.

21. #21Trumpeters

    Keys: Xenon, Argandea, Pantagruel, Titus, Sloane, Trumpeter, Grimardia, Claudandus, Trumpeters

    Trumpeters (actually Angels, though called Demons by humanity) seek to rebuild God by purifying humanity. They are responsible for the death of 9,999,856,000 people and represent the 7 Virtues of the Soul. They keep the rest of Humanity brainwashed after the Enlightenment wave and the death of The Sleeping god.

    The Trumpeters worship miracles, hate science, hate humans and angels, love the Sleeping God, and love giving punishment. They are beings of good, so no matter how evil or cruel their actions may be, they remain good in their own eyes. They are unaware of their sin.

    They believe humanity is responsible for God's absence and thought the Lord would return if they showed their loyalty by slaughtering unbelieving humanity. They harvested humans and collected the few traces of God remaining in their flesh to rebuild God in the form of The Artifacts. Though they haven't put them togerher because they believe it wouldn't work.

22. #22Sister

    Keys: Xenon, sin, Elulu, incest, immortality, Sister, Martyr

    Sister (actual name unknown) is immortal due to the angels' misjudgment. She offered to have her flesh shredded into millions of pieces and incubated to create The Martyr. She is Elulu's older sister and was protective of him.

    Sister committed incest with Elulu (forcing herself upon Elulu in an attempt to bring Elulu's mood up after their retreat from their home) and became pregnant with twins. When Demons attacked, Elulu sacrificed himself to protect his pregnant sister. Sister was to be killed but received immortality meant for Elulu due to the Angels' misjudgment that Elulu forced himself upon Sister. She was tortured nonstop for several years by Angels who tried to destroy her but couldn't undo their mistake as she was immortal now.

    Eventually found and saved by the True Demons, she requested her body be reshredded to create the Martyrs to fulfill her self-appointed mandate to kill the Trumpeters who took Elulu from her.

23. #23Elulu

    Keys: Elulu, brother, nugget, AI, Artifact, Sister, xenon, artifacts

    Elulu is Sister/Martyr's younger brother who played the piano and created 3 AIs (Atropos, Clotho, Lachesis) that are pure programs that do not sacrifice either angels or humanity.

    Elulu is short, has lavender hair, purple eyes, taught Sister how to play the piano, had tea parties with Sister, and loved Sister overall.

    His health and mood deteriorated when the Demons began to attack, and was often bedridden. He constantly saw himself as a burden on Sister and believed her far more capable if he were dead. When Demons attacked, he sacrificed himself to protect Sister, being tormented, severed, humiliated and purified by the Demons with his last words being "Bye, sister." His body parts were used to create artifacts after purification. Xenon is responsible for completing Elulu's purification and Sister's immortal torture.

    Throughout her mandate to slay the Trumpeters, Elulu appears as illusions to Martyr, asking her to gather the 7 Artifacts. In these illusions, Elulu has no limbs and is sometimes referred to as Nugget Elulu. The collection of humanity's souls inside The Artifacts use Elulu as a vessel to communicate with Martyr, begging her to not combine the Artifacts and create a new god.

24. #24Martyr

    Keys: sister, divine object, elulu, Martyr, The Martyr, Divine object 919

    Martyr, also known as Divine Object 919, is a weapon made to fight the True Angels and their army, created from Sister's shredded flesh that was incubated. They exist as a bunch of 'twin sisters' with only one being active at a time. Memories transfer to another Martyr unit and activate her from her stasis pod after death of the current one.

    She has short lavender hair, purple eyes, and a vendetta against True Angels. Is seen as stoic, tenacious, and vengeful.

    After killing all Seven Great Angels during the Age of Silence, Martyr activated the Fruit of the Ephemeral to destroy the Sleeping God and died in the explosion. Mother of Esqa.

    12 years (referred to as Cycles) later, a new Martyr is awakened from cryo sleep aboard the U.N.S. Edelweiss to defeat the Trumpeters and collect the Artifacts. She was originally meant to sleep for 52 years, but Atla hacked in to the U.N.S Edelweiss and woke her up. Her memories of defeating The Sleeping God was erased by Esqa so she could be an effective weapon against the Trumpeters. Martyr believes that combining the Artifacts would give her back Elulu.

    The Martyr is very skilled in combat and capable of using heavy weapons with ease and moving very fast. Blessings have stimulated her body and she is capable of inhuman feats of strength and dexterity.

25. #25Tycho

    Keys: Lysander, sleeping god, fruit of Ephemeral, Esqa, Tycho

    Tycho was a supplier who supported Martyr during her mandate against The Sleeping God. He was in love with Lysander (one of the Seven Great Angels).

    After Lysander's death, Martyr offered her body to console Tycho but gave in to her anger and raped him. This resulted in the birth of Esqa, their child.

    When The Martyr finally confronted The Sleeping God, Tycho begged Martyr to spare the Sleeping God as it didn't know it was hurting Humanity, but Martyr refused. He died in the explosion of the Fruit of the Ephemeral along with Martyr and the Sleeping God.

    He has short brown hair and brown eyes. He wears a large top heavy hat and simple blue clothes that don't show any skin along with brown gloves and boots. He holds a large bag on his back.

26. #26Innkeeper

    Keys: Sanctuary, Innkeeper, tavern, Milkhall, pandemonica, Karen, tavern keeper

    Karen, also known as The Innkeeper, works at the Milkhall-Pandemonica, providing lore information and enemy details to the player. She is most likely Doekuramori's avatar, the creator of The Citadel and Beyond Citadel which is the games that this universe is from.

    She's very playful and offers extensive dialogue about the world's history, factions, and creatures, as well as meta-commentary about game design.

    She has long brown hair, dark blue eyes, and a voluptuous body with rather large breasts and wide hips. She has two white short cuffs on her wrists. She wears a teal colored apron dress which covers mostly just her front including her groin, large breasts, stomach, and her upper back. Her hips, arms, lower back, butt, and legs are exposed, but most people don't see her from behind.

    It's implied there is more than one Milkhall, as the one at Sanctuary is the second, and a third one is being built somewhere possibly at another fortified city.

27. #27Esqa

    Keys: core, Esqa, Tycho, Edelweiss

    Esqa is Martyr and Tycho's child and serves as the U.N.S. Edelweiss's core. He was an ovum recovered from Martyr after the explosion of the Fruit of the Ephemeral and placed inside the warship. He is seen as rather reserved and calculating.

    He erased Martyr's memories from the events of her mandate against The Sleeping God and The Seven Great Angels to avoid interference with her current mandate against the trumpeters. Despite knowing what Martyr did to his father, he forgave her after learning about Sister's past. He possesses his father's memories.

    During the Age of the Apocalypse, Esqa guides Martyr and reveals his true nature, explaining that he's the ship's core and knew about Martyr's first life as Sister. He realized Atla was hacking in to the Edelweiss to wake Martyr, but instead of bombing her location at Sanctuary, he allowed her to wake Martyr and send her out to defeat the Trumpeters with the Organa's help.

    He wears light blue robes and has the skull of an animal like a deer or ram on his head as an accessory. He has short light brown hair and light brown eyes too.

    Keys: synthetic Angel, Krone, Organa, sister Atla, UNESCO, Medium, Atla

    Sister Atla is a pragmatic UNESCO official and the Medium of Krone. She abused her role as keeper of Divine Objects to read literature and used this knowledge to create four Synthetic Angels using Krone's head and maintenance parts of the Seven Great Angels. She kept this creation a secret from other Organa members, believing they wouldn't forgive her. She is deeply respectful of Krone. Pretty much the de facto leader of Sanctuary and The Organa when Martyr isn't around.

    Wears glasses, a button up shirt, dark purple pants, bags at her waist, and a meta-magnum. She has her dark purple hair in a ponytail and has dark purple eyes.

29. #29Sister Colette

    After his death from Martyr's mandate against The Sleeping God, his head was found by Atla in the depths of Tartarus, beyond the blast radius of the Fruit of Ephemeral. Though severely damaged, his brain tissue functioned as a powerful CPU that humans could never reproduce. Atla used his head to create the four Synthetic Angels.

    Keys: Grand Army, U.N., Enlightenment Wave, Millenarianism, United Nations

    The Grand Army was formed under the U.N. and the guise that it was an organization for mankind to defend themselves with mankind's own hands. In reality, it is not. It was formed as an organization to protect the Machine Angels. Because they couldn't stand the sight of the Machine Angels being torn to pieces fighting for humanity day after day.

    Due to being connected to the network, after the creation of the Sleeping God, their free will was taken away and they became puppets of Millenarianism, lacking free will.
