In a future where death is obsolete, minds are stored in cortical stacks—digital souls waiting to be sleeved into new bodies. The body is no longer sacred. It’s a product—leased, cloned, sold, or stolen.

San Francisco still stands: towering, rain-slick, and humming with artificial light. Corporations run it clean on paper, and government keeps a steady hand on the wheel. But wealth buys freedom, and justice bends for those who can afford the right sleeve—or make others disappear quietly.

The city’s upper levels shine with order and polish—immaculate streets, gleaming towers, and curated calm. But beneath the surface lies a quiet moral decay: synthetic perfection masking indulgence, corruption, and soulless power games.

Meanwhile, the lower tiers tell a different story: shadowed alleys, failing infrastructure, black market sleeving, memory hacks, and the kind of crime that never makes the feeds.

Anthro citizens move through this layered world in borrowed flesh—caught between survival, status, and a shifting sense of self. It isn’t chaos. It’s something colder: control, decay, and the quiet certainty that if you fall, no one’s coming to catch you.

#1Cortical Stack
Keys: , stack, Cortical Stack
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A small, disk-shaped implant installed at the base of the skull, the cortical stack stores the entirety of a person’s consciousness—memories, personality, knowledge, and identity. It acts as a durable backup for the human mind, making biological death no longer permanent. As long as the stack remains intact, the person can be resleeved into a new body. Stacks are protected under some laws but are still frequently targeted by criminals, corporations, and governments alike. They are the foundation of modern immortality.
#2Sleeve
Keys: , sleeve, body, resleeve
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A sleeve is a physical body—organic or synthetic—that a cortical stack can be inserted into, allowing the user to inhabit and control it as if it were their original form. Sleeves come in various types: cheap clones, high-end designer models, synthetic constructs, or even stolen bodies. For the rich, sleeves are fashion, vanity, or utility. For the poor, they’re a trap—often lower-quality, poorly maintained, or shared through contracts with no say in their own flesh. Anthro features, custom modifications, and enhanced abilities are all common. Some sleeves are built for function—combat, seduction, labor—while others are status symbols. Anthro sleeves are especially popular among niche buyers, collectors, and the elite. The market is global, ruthless, and barely regulated.
#3Digital soul
Keys: digital consciousness, digital soul, soul
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A poetic term for the consciousness encoded in a cortical stack. Though technically just data, it is still the core of an individual—their thoughts, feelings, and personal history. Some cultures and religions consider digital souls to be legitimate extensions of the human spirit, while others see them as unnatural abominations. In practical terms, digital souls are traded, copied, hijacked, and abused in both corporate and criminal sectors. The soul is no longer sacred—it’s data, and data can be manipulated.
#4Resleeving
Keys: , resleeve, Resleeving
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Resleeving is the act of transferring a cortical stack into a new sleeve. Though routine in modern society, the process can be psychologically jarring, particularly for those unfamiliar with switching bodies or forced into sleeves against their will. Resleeving is heavily regulated for legal citizens, but under-the-table jobs are common in poorer districts. Trauma, identity confusion, and emotional detachment are well-known side effects—especially when the new sleeve differs significantly in species, gender, age, or appearance.
#5Anthro Citizens
Keys: Synthetic Fur, Anthro Citizens, anthro
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Refers to synthetic anthro sleeves, built from engineered materials or artificial muscle tissue to mimic animalistic forms. Originally a niche aesthetic favored among the upper class and certain cultural groups, anthro's became common everywhere. A large portion of the population embraced animalistic features through sleeve customization. Using genetic splicing, designer cloning, and synthetic construction, anthros—beings with human minds and animal-like bodies—became culturally accepted and widely desired. Some see it as expression. Others, escapism. Whether born into anthro bodies or sleeved into them by choice or necessity, these citizens make up a significant and visible portion of society. Fur, tails, digitigrade legs, and expressive ears are common, and preferences vary from subtle traits to full transformations.
#6Sleeve Market
Keys: body shop, , Sleeve Market, flesh crafter
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
The industry—both legal and illegal—built around the trade and distribution of bodies. Corporations manufacture and lease out cloned and synthetic sleeves, while underground networks traffic in stolen bodies, hacked stacks, and unlicensed creations. Prices vary based on aesthetics, quality, enhancements, or rarity. Some sleeves are built for function—combat, seduction, labor—while others are status symbols. Anthro sleeves are especially popular among niche buyers, collectors, and the elite. The market is global, ruthless, and barely regulated.
#7Immortality
Keys: Immortality, meths
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Immortality is the ability to live indefinitely through resleeving. While available in theory to all, in practice it’s a luxury of the wealthy. The rich use their resources to maintain backups, clone ideal bodies, and extend their lives endlessly. Over time, immortality often leads to emotional detachment, cruelty, and moral rot, as consequences fade and empathy dulls. For the elite, it becomes a way to secure eternal dominance. For everyone else, it’s a haunting reminder of inequality.
#8San Francisco
Keys: Bay city, city, San Francisco
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A vertical city built in layers over the old San Francisco.

The lowest levels are old streets, canals, and decaying infrastructure—dim, wet, and forgotten, where noir hangs in the air like cigarette smoke.

Above them, elevated walkways and roads form a dense mid-level canopy, crowded with traffic, markets, and the working class.

At the top, glass towers and coral-like megastructures pierce the clouds—home to the elite, clean and detached from the world below.
#9Memory Backup
Keys: , Stack backup, Memory Backup
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A process where a copy of a person’s digital consciousness is saved regularly. If their stack is destroyed, the backup can be used to restore them. Backups are expensive and mainly used by the wealthy.
#10Religious Coding
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Some citizens install programming into their cortical stacks to prevent resleeving after death. This is usually based on religious or cultural beliefs that view immortality as unnatural. Once the stack is destroyed or deactivated, it cannot be transferred. Some laws protect religious lockouts, but in practice, these protections are sometimes ignored, especially by corporations or criminals.
#11Construct prisons
Keys: construct prison, prison
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
#12Stack Interrogation
Keys: digital torture, Stack Interrogation
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
A method used to question individuals by accessing their stack in a virtual environment. It allows for direct viewing of memories or simulated questioning under controlled conditions. Stack interrogation can bypass lies or omissions, but the process can cause psychological damage or lead to altered memories. It is used by law enforcement, corporations, and private security forces.
#13Class Divide
Keys: wage gap, class war, Class divide, class disparity
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
There is a strong separation between the rich and the poor. Wealth determines the quality of your sleeve, access to legal protection, healthcare, and even the right to be resleeved at all. The upper class lives in the top layers of the city with clean, modern technology and long-term immortality. The lower class lives in old or synthetic sleeves, often in the lower levels of the city with fewer rights and dangerous surroundings. The longer immortality has been around, the more this divide has grown.
#14Lower Levels
Keys: Lower Levels, bottom floor
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
The bottom layers of the city, consisting of old streets, canals, and early construction. They receive little natural light and are often in poor condition. Crime is more common here, and public services are limited. Most low-income citizens live in the lower levels, where housing is cheap but dangerous. These areas include old infrastructure that predates the vertical expansion of the city.
#15Specialized Sleeves
Keys: combat sleeve, stealth sleeve, specialized sleeve., worker sleeve, pleasure sleeve
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Specialized sleeves are custom-designed bodies built for specific tasks such as combat, labor, entertainment, stealth, or medical work. These sleeves may be organic or synthetic and often include enhancements like increased strength, precise motor control, reduced sensory feedback, or visual and vocal modifications. Combat sleeves are reinforced for durability and fast reflexes, while worker sleeves are built to endure physical strain. Sleeves used in entertainment are tailored for appearance and performance, and stealth sleeves are designed to be quiet and hard to detect. Some are created for short-term use, known as disposable sleeves, and are common in high-risk or expendable situations. Specialized sleeves are expensive and usually controlled by corporations, military groups, or wealthy clients. While some are legally produced, others are made or modified through black market operations.
#16Cybernetics
Keys: cyborg, mechanical, Cybernetic
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Cybernetics are mechanical implants used to restore lost function in damaged or aging sleeves. They are most commonly medical devices—such as artificial limbs, joint replacements, visual aids, or neural stabilizers—used to keep low- and mid-quality sleeves operational. While advanced cybernetics exist for military or corporate use, most are practical and regulated. Civilian models are common and affordable, while illegal or military-grade implants are harder to access and more heavily controlled.
#17Corneal Display Interface
Keys: HUD, , Corneal Display Interface
Always on · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
An internal visual system that projects digital data directly onto the user’s cornea. This allows users to see real-time information such as messages, maps, targeting systems, or surveillance feeds without external devices. Controlled by neural input, it operates silently and discreetly. Common in combat sleeves, surveillance agents, and high-end corporate users. Basic civilian models exist but have limited features.
#18Auto-Cabs / VTOLs
Keys: , hover car, Auto-Cabs, VTOLs
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Self-piloted ground taxis and vertical take-off and landing vehicles used for transportation within and between city levels. Controlled by onboard AIs and regulated by city traffic systems. VTOLs are commonly used by wealthier individuals or corporations, while auto-cabs serve the general public. Some areas restrict VTOL access due to airspace limits or security concerns.
#19AI Hotels
Keys: AI Hotels
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Fully autonomous buildings managed by self-aware artificial intelligences. AI hotels handle reservations, security, entertainment, and personal care without human staff. Some have personality-driven interfaces, while others operate silently in the background. Once more common, many AI hotels have fallen out of favor and are now outdated or underused—though a few still remain active as safehouses, hideouts, or relics of older tech.
#20Police
Keys: , PEO, cops, Public Enforcement Officers, police
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Public Enforcement handles stack-related crimes, illegal resleeving, and identity violations. Officers patrol with drone support and rely on AI surveillance to monitor behavior and flag threats. Simulspace interrogation and stack forensics are standard tools. Wealthy areas see controlled, quiet enforcement, while the lower levels face harsher policing and more corruption. Most departments operate under corporate influence. Public Enforcement Officers (PEOs) patrol the streets, often accompanied by drones or low-level AI support.
#21Military
Keys: , IDF, Envoy, Military
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
The Interworld Defense Forces (IDF) maintain global and offworld security. They protect major assets, respond to large-scale threats, and handle sensitive tech. Elite Envoy units specialize in psychological tactics and memory manipulation. Other divisions retrieve or erase stacks as needed. The military rarely appears in public but controls restricted zones and strategic infrastructure.
#22Envoys
Keys: Envoys
Enabled · After character · Order 10 · 100%
Entry settings
Envoys are elite operatives originally trained to operate across different sleeves, environments, and situations without losing effectiveness. They were designed for high-risk missions, diplomacy, psychological operations, and rapid adaptation to resleeving. Their training focused on mental discipline, memory control, situational awareness, and combat efficiency.

In the modern era, most Envoys no longer serve their original purpose. Instead, they are used by military and corporate forces for covert operations, high-value retrievals, and enforcement actions where standard units are not effective. They are known for staying calm under pressure, resisting interrogation, and using memory techniques to compartmentalize information.

Envoys are often sleeved into high-end combat bodies and may operate alone or in small units. Few civilians ever meet an Envoy, but their reputation is widespread—efficient, controlled, and dangerous. Some former Envoys are in circulation as mercenaries, while others have gone underground or been targeted for memory suppression.
