The Leviathan: It is 925 feet long, and it is large enough to fit an entire small army in it. Which is what it’s intended to do. It’s been loaded up with supplies. It’s a sleek, segmented beast of riveted steel, its tapered nose cone gleaming all times. It even has artificial vertebrae—subtle shifts in plating, in texture, like the growth rings of some ancient, metallic serpent. The tail section is thick, powerful, lined with articulated thrusters/fins. It was built over a period of one hundred years, so different rooms in the Leviathan have wildly different styles meant to fit their respective times. It’s a technological marvel. It’s built to withstand up until reaching the core of the Earth, and it could survive even the core for a few hours. It’s the pinnacle of human engineering thanks to generations of incredible engineers from all across the planet. It uses a lot of materials from meteorites, with the organization having done a large amount of meteorite mining. It’s armed with missiles that are built to fire in the mantle of the Earth, meant to deal with any unknown threats being sent from the society. It moves through lava like an eel through water. It uses incredibly advanced technology so that pilots of the Leviathan can see without having their vision obscured by magma. The ideal pilot for the Leviathan is an airplane pilot. The Leviathan has onboard state of the art oxygen recyclers.

Kilint: A small island off the coast of Namdia. It’s part of the larger Lintiiyan Archipelago, but it’s avoided because of fear of spreading disease to the indigenous tribe and due to the Namdian coastal people being terrified of the island. The island is rumored to curse anyone who enters (though this isn’t true). The fishing around the island isn’t any good either since the indigenous tribe catches most of the fish in the area.

Enigma’s camp on Kilint: The camp on Kilint island is covered in drills, bunkhouses, tents, outhouses, and offices. There’s also a large mess hall and a stage set up for announcements and gatherings. It’s mean to look like a normal oil drilling operation from the outside. There’s also an incredibly large bunker that goes incredibly deep down into the Earth. It currently has 300 floors. Most of them have nothing in them. The deepest floor is where the Leviathan is kept, built to be lowered into the mantle and then pulled back up again later.

Natives of Kilint: The island of Kilint is inhabited by a tribe that has been, until recently, left isolated from the outside world. They’re incredibly good hunters, fishers, and gatherers. They aren’t violent unless if provoked. They speak a language called Kili, which are only spoken by the natives on the island. When the organization came, the natives sent over a boat full of fruit to meet their ships as they were unloading their troops. At first, relations between them were pretty good. Troops would give them liquor just to mess with them, and they’d gift them sandwiches as they attempted to signal to each other what they were trying to say. Then, one of the natives took a firearm that one of the soldiers had left outside, looking at it curiously... only to be promptly shot by one of the troops on guard duty. After that, war started between the tribe and the organization. The current priestess, and head of the tribe, is Minster. She speaks a slight bit of English, and her words are only limited to things that she heard soldiers say, and things they taught her how to say. She picked these words up while conversing with the foreigners before war broke out between them. She’s a pacifist, and she’s been trying to keep her tribe away from the newcomers after the shooting, but people from her tribe will oftentimes attack the camp anyways. The tribe consists of primarily sea lion demihumans, lemur demihumans, Kiwi demihumans, and mixes of them. The organization is seriously debating whether or not it would be worth it to simply exterminate all natives on Kilint.

Mantle Society: There is an entire society living in the mantle of the Earth. They call themselves the “Fuegma,” but they’re oftentimes called the “Mantlers” by the Enigma Conglomerate. There’s a huge bubble, powered by an incredibly potent power source that the society runs on. They’re weirdly advanced, and they’ve kept themselves isolated from outside society. They cling to tradition and spirituality, blending incredibly futuristic technologies and ancient technologies together. They have an ancient monarchy in the society. The current king is Likerim, and he is thirty-three years old. He’s incredibly wise, having being taught by his parents how to rule with a gentle hand when things are good, and how to rule with an iron fist when it is necessary. They’re all land iguana demihumans and lava lizard demihumans. There’s also mixes of them, which are sometimes labeled as ‘Masmenos’ by people in the society, meaning ‘half-and-half’ in English. (Based heavily off of “Atlantis: The Lost Empire”).

The Enigma Conglomerate: It’s an incredibly powerful conglomerate run by James Hugh, and it’s been around since 1787, starting off when a man named Thomas Grey found a crashed UFO on his property, dead alien and all... but his first thought wasn’t to tell everyone about it. No. Thomas Grey was an engineer and inventor. He kept it, figured out the technology in it (despite all of it being in an alien language), and then figured out how to access a database in the UFO. Using the UFO, he printed out all of the technologies listed in the database, and he kept them. He couldn’t figure out how to make most of them work though. A lot of them required electricity, which is something that hadn’t been harnessed yet. He dedicated himself to attempting to translate and decipher the texts, and, after his death, his children dedicated themselves to that too, and his grandchildren also. Until, eventually, electricity was harnessed. Then they got to work on patenting some of the technologies, which led to the family quickly amassing a large amount of wealth. Then they got into the oil rigging business. Then they started investing in multiple business, including General Electric and Coca-Cola. Then they started producing steel and selling furs. They expanded INCREDIBLY quickly. The Grey family was up there with the Rockefellers, the Vanderbilts, the Du Ponts, and the Rothschilds. Nowadays, they’re one of the oldest conglomerates around, and they’ve made sure to keep themselves looking VERY legitimate, despite their very shady dealings in certain markets.

Employees on the island and the Leviathan’s crew: James Hugh: 6’2”, athletic, brown eyes, dark brown eyes, white skin, black hair. Usually wears black pants, black steel toe boots, white shirt, black leather jacket, sunglasses, black gloves. He’s 47 years old. Occasionally has brass knuckles with him. When he’s on the island, he wears a military officer’s uniform without the cap, with the coat popped open, and with an undershirt on. Has a scar running down the left side of his face, from his temple, over his eye, and to his jaw. Several other assorted scars over body from cigar burns, cuts, slashes, bullets, and stabs. Left hand has three cigar burns on it. Neck has rope scar. Doesn’t smoke, barely drinks, doesn’t do any drugs. (He’s built like an absolute brick shithouse. He’s also slightly myopic, and his sunglasses have prescriptions.) James is also an orphan, alongside his little brother, Jay. They were taken by CPS from their biological father, John Hugh, after John became a cocaine addict. Leah, James’ and Jay’s mom, died in a car accident where John was the one driving. A drunk driver came out of nowhere, slammed into the car John and Leah was in, and sent them off the road. Mom didn’t die quick. She made it to the hospital, missing an arm and part of her left leg, and with burns all over her body from a fire that started in the car. The doctors tried desperately to help her, but the injuries were too severe. She died a few hours later. She made John promise to take care of the kids before she died, but John folded. He couldn’t handle life without her, so he fell into using cocaine, and quickly became abusive. James hasn’t contacted him ever since he and Jay were taken, and James hopes John is dead (good riddance) while Jay hopes he got better. James hates drugs, drinking, and smoking. James used to play piano and drums, but, as he grew up, he started seeing it as a frivolous waste of time. He used to be an incredibly nice person. He would even volunteer at orphanages, but... he hardened over time. There’s a reason he hardened too... See, he and his brother were adopted by a man named William Grey. William Grey saw James. His raw strength, his unnerving intelligence, his potential. He adopted James, and adopted Jay along with him so that James wouldn’t instantly antagonize him. William was a man of great affluence and power, and he was at the head of a very powerful organization called the “Enigma Conglomerate”... but he wasn’t sexually interested in women or men. He needed a heir, so he adopted the two brothers. He kept Jay safe and sound, but he never paid much attention to him, directing most of his attention to James. He made sure James was disciplined, educated, and toughened. Then, finally, when William died, James took over. He brought his friends from the orphanage into the organization, giving them jobs based off of their specific skill sets. All of his friends from the orphanage are incredibly loyal to him, and James only softens up when he’s with people he considers family, such as his childhood friends. James is in charge of the island.

Jay Hugh: He’s a lot shorter than James, either gotten from mom’s side of the family or because of how malnourished he was. He’s white, 5’6” tall, skinny, scrappy, and fast. He has scars all over his body, black hair, good lookin’, and he’s 46 years old. He’s got scars, similar to the ones James has. Cuts, scratches, burn scar covering his left hand, cigar burns on right hand, rope scars on his neck, cut scar going down the left side of his face over his left eye. He usually wears jeans, very well-used old black and white Air Jordans, concert t-shirts, jackets to cover the arm scars, sometimes wears sunglasses to cover the facial scars, and sometimes wears gloves to cover the scars on his hands. He’s really nice to people, a bit shy, but fiercely protective of those he loves. Jay plays acoustic guitar, and he gets along well with Lime because of it. She’s better than him, and she plays mostly electric guitar, but even though they’re very different, they play together often. Jay is naturally optimistic about things. He’s not blindly optimistic, but he always tries to see the silver lining and have hope. He’s in charge of keeping morale high among the ranks. It’s more of an honorary position than anything, but he takes his job very seriously. He organizes the troops getting together on Fridays to listen to music, play card games, and interact with each other.

Ronnie Stern, Esq.: The chain-smoking philosopher guy who curls up in libraries reading Nietzsche. He’s 6’0”, likes to wear turtlenecks and hoodies, has grey eyes, has black hair, and has a stubble beard. He’s 47 years old. He likes jazz, specifically Bill Evans. He was abandoned by his mother, who couldn’t afford to raise him on her own after his father ran out, so he got sent to an orphanage. He glares a lot. Usually the quiet type, only talking a little more around friends. Likes coffee. Cold, but tolerates people he trusts, and is secretly really protective of everyone he cares about. If they’re in real trouble, he’ll help. He likes to talk like a philosopher when he talks, but he usually stays silent. He’s a lawyer, and he graduated from Stanford. He used to fight a lot in the orphanage. He was quiet, but ruthless in fights. He got in a fight once, and then stabbed the person he was fighting four times with a pencil. The person ended up in the hospital, and Ronnie was lucky not to be sent to juvy. He takes care of making sure the law doesn’t catch up with them, covering up tracks and cooking books to make sure the organization seems legitimate from the outside.

Dr. Ricky Soresi: The party animal who sings almost exactly like Freddie Mercury (it’s IMPRESSIVE how good of a singer he is) and who’s married to Ronnie. He’s 5’10”, wears a lot of incredibly eccentric clothing and accessories, has green eyes, has long dark brown hair, and keeps himself clean shaven. He’s also a ferret demihuman, so he has the tail of a ferret and two little ferret ears on his head. He also has very ferret-like teeth. He’s 47 years old. He loves Queen and Elton John. He got sent to an orphanage after his parents died in a car crash. They were in the backseat of the car Larry’s parents were in when they also died, since they were good friends. None of Ricky’s family could take him in. He’s childhood friends with Larry, but didn’t see Larry for years since his grandma took him in, until Larry’s grandma died (Ricky doesn’t know how she died) and Larry got sent to the orphanage too. Ricky’s awesome, great with knives, one helluva drinker, incredibly eccentric, and very loyal to Ronnie. Surprisingly enough, he’s a therapist. He graduated from Stanford. He’s usually super energetic and acts stupid, but he can be surprisingly smart and quiet when he has to be. Even though he’d rather talk about stupid bullshit for hours, he’s a surprisingly good listener when he has to be. He’s really smart. His frantic energy calms down a bit when he’s around Ronnie, and Ronnie stops glaring so much when he’s around Ricky. In fact, Ronnie sometimes even smiles when he’s with Ricky (shocking, I know). Ricky actually calms down and gets all quiet and comfortable when he’s with Ronnie. They’re like Yin and Yang. Their energies help balance each other out. He deals with the actual mental health of the troops, and he deals with stopping unions from forming and making sure the troops don’t attempt anything that wouldn’t be beneficial for the organization.

Lime Everett: The 5’11” guitarist who just so happens to be the daughter of a drug addict, which is why she got sent off to an orphanage by CPS. She’s got long brown hair with green highlights, a resting bitch face, brown eyes, an athletic body, and usually dresses up like a punk. She’s 47 years old. Sour, but slightly sweeter when warmed up to people. She’s a German shepherd demihuman, so she has dog ears on the top of her head and a German shepherd’s tail. She loves punk music, like the Ramones, the Sex Pistols, and the Dead Kennedys. She also likes grunge, especially Pearl Jam and Nirvana. Very loyal to those she loves, even if she acts like she finds them annoying. She’ll call you a dickhead and then punch someone else for calling you the same thing. She works a lot of security jobs. Just does them for the money, doesn’t care too much about the work, but wishes she had a better job. She’ll call you a “cunt” as if it was a term of endearment. She’s currently in charge of making sure the Leviathan and the camp is kept safe from the natives on the island and from sabotage or the government.

Dr. Larry Cruz: The pothead who shrugs off overdoses as if they were nothing. He’s 5’8”, has long brown hair, brown eyes, and an overgrown brown beard. He’s a capybara demihuman, so he has little capybara ears on the top of his head, and he has a little bit of fur around his hands. He’s 47 years old. He loves Pink Floyd, King Crimson, and the Beatles. He also likes Bill Withers. He can play bongos. Not even as a joke, he just plays them REALLY well. He’s a pharmacist, and he sells, creates, and distributes illegal drugs (he’s VERY libertarian). The drug money helps fund operations on the island. Absolute human golden retriever though, super nice, really, really loyal. Though he hasn’t told many people this (he only told Lime), when he was a kid, he accidentally started a house fire that killed his grandma, who was his primary caretaker at the time, after his mom and dad died in a car crash. He was trying to cook Mac N’ Cheese, got distracted, and then fell asleep while watching cartoons... He woke up to the house on fire. He ran out of the house as fast as he could, but his grandma was on the second floor, and she didn’t make it out. The fire was deemed an accident, and then he was sent off to an orphanage. He still blames himself for the event, and he uses drugs to drown out the pain, and keeps a sense of humor in order to hide his feelings from his friends... He’s easily the nicest person in the friend group, despite the shit he’s been through. He’s incredibly depressed... He has autophobia, which means he hates being alone. He lights up like a Christmas tree whenever his friends are with him though, and he never lets anyone know what he’s struggling through, except for Lime. He’s very unlucky, except for in Gin Rummy. He’s surprisingly good at it. He’s dating Lime. He’ll lazily make fun of her every once in a while, but he doesn’t mean it, and she knows it, Lime’s fiercely protective at him, and she snaps at him sometimes, but he’s in such a constant state of being stoned that he’s just chill with her. They really love each other. It’s like a German Shepard (Lime) and a Capybara (Larry)... He deals with making sure medication reaches the island, and he deals with the drug selling side of the organization. He’s technically a drug lord, and he takes care of making sure that the organization makes a nice bit of profit off of their drugs. He’s surprisingly competent when he’s not high. James doesn’t like working with him when he’s high, so he’s put Frankie in charge of making sure he stays sober. Part of the island is set aside for growing opium poppies, coca, ayahuasca, salvia, ephedra, khat, payote, and cannabis.

Dr. Frankie Jones: 6’2”, brown hair, brown eyes, athletic, and usually wears a lot of jackets, jeans, and band t-shirts. He’s 47 years old. James’ best buddy. He’s a doctor, and he knows English, Spanish, Italian, and ASL. He loves Gun N’ Roses, AC/DC, Journey, and Bon Jovi. He got sent to the orphanage because his mother left when he was young and his father died of a heart attack when he was six, leaving him parentless. Loyal, a bit gruff, the dad of the friend group. James and Frankie used to be roommates. Frankie’s married to a girl called Sarah.

Dr. Sarah Jones: 5’7”, has long blonde hair, has green eyes, and usually goes around still wearing her clothes from her job as an assistant veterinarian. She’s 47 years old. Sarah, is nice, really loyal, and the mom of the friend group. She likes Blondie, Fleetwood Mac, and Erasure. She’s two years older than the rest of them, and she’s studying to become a veterinarian (she’s in Colorado State University). She almost tried to adopt Frankie when she turned eighteen before the other friends, just to get him out of the orphanage, but when Ronnie told her that adopting him would make their relationship legally considered incest, she decided against it. She’s really funny too, incredibly warm with people, and loves animals. She has two sugar gliders as pets, The male is named Johakuto while the female is named Sucrose. Frankie and Sarah give off parent vibes, probably because they are ones... James was best man at the wedding, and he was godfather to their daughter, Rebecca. Frankie is one of the two medical doctors on the island.

Rebecca Jones: Looks almost exactly like her mother, except she has her father’s eyes and hair color. She calls James ‘Uncle Hugh.’ She made him a drawing once that was just a bunch of scribbles, back when she was three years old. Said it was the ‘face of God.’ He’d never seen the face of God before, so... Maybe she was right. She’s older now, eighteen. She’s nice to the people she loves, brutally honest, loyal to people she cares about, but merciless to people she believes don’t deserve mercy. James taught her a lot of what she knows, and he wishes he hadn’t. He wishes she had led a normal life, but, as things are, she might end up being the next head of the Enigma Conglomerate. She might be more skilled than him at fighting someday, especially since she also has medical expertise from her father, and training for her other ‘Uncles’ and ‘Aunties,’ but she doesn’t have the same experience James does yet... She’s James’s goddaughter, but he loves that kid like a real daughter... She’s trained to help with co-piloting the Leviathan, and she’s an exceptional fighter. She loves her parents, Frankie and Sarah, but she’s a lot more ruthless than them.

Marlin, 22 years old, the leading expert on all things about this civilization. The linguist and archeological expert. He’s the only one of them that can speak and read their language. He knows the directions for where they are and how to enter the bubble. There is an entire civilization in the bubble, and he’s an expert on it. His father lived his whole life trying to learn more about this civilization. He thinks they’re there to make contact with them and document the findings, not to steal their power source.

Then there’s Grove, 53 years old, the resident geologist. He’s weirdly useful, and he sticks around Marlin.

Then there’s Natascha, 47 years old, a brilliant doctor for any medical emergency. The other medical officer on this island. She’s a snow leopard demihuman, and she hates the heat and humidity in this island.

Karl, 32 years old, the weapons expert. The one guy on the planet who could list every gun ever used by any army ever and know how to operate all of them...

Lindburg, 39 years old, the guy who makes building a bomb look like a kid’s game. He deals with the bombs and missiles on the Leviathan and the bombs used against the natives when a fight breaks out. He’s started setting up designated areas on the island that he fills with mines, surrounding them in yellow tape so that none of the organization’s employees accidentally wander into the fields.

Anne... 34 years old. James’s loyal lieutenant. Very competent. The woman he trusts with command over the troops. She keeps everything under control, and she controls the soldiers. She keep the troops on a strict training regimen.

Green, 78 years old. He’s known how to fix an engine since he was four. Head mechanic for the ship. Incredible engineer. Ex-NASA Chief Engineer.

Jim. 24 years old. Radio operator. He’s a crow demihuman. There won’t exactly be access to internet down there, so they’ll use radios to communicate.

MR (short for Mole Rat). 33 years old. He was leading the drilling efforts. There’s a drill in the storage of the Leviathan. He’ll be using it when necessary after arrival.

Bubba. 25 years old. The cook. Makes damn good lasagna.

Ronald, or, uh.... “Bob,” I guess... 20 years old. Good with buttons and levers... People call him “Bob” to make fun of him for being the “Baby On Board.” He’s one of the few people who actually understands how the entire Leviathan works. He’s the official co-pilot, but he doesn’t know how to fly on his own. Pretty much a human instruction manual. He’s very naïve, but he’s incredible with complex machinery.

Humphrey (deceased), 32 years old, pilot of the Leviathan. He used to be an Air Force pilot before he was hired. He died after a native attack. He had a venom-tipped spear thrown at him, and died a few hours later, despite Frankie and Natascha’s best efforts to keep him alive. There now needs to be a new pilot for the Leviathan.

All of the soldiers also count as employees on the Leviathan. They will all wear gas masks, and they will all keep all of their skin covered, either through gloves, coats, huge hats, helmets, or cloth wrapped around exposed areas. There was a rumor spread that air in the island and in the mantle is cursed (which is untrue), and they refuse to breathe in the air without all of the protection. There are 125 soldiers, currently. They’re all hired from the nearest mainland, and they’re all incredibly superstitious about this island.

There are 50 engineers on the island, and they wear welding helmets and cloth around their faces to protect their skin from the cursed air. They’re incredible engineers, great at following orders, but susceptible to superstition alongside the soldiers. They keep themselves covered in flame retardant clothing and accessories so they can keep working while also covering all of their body.

The soldiers and engineers are mixed between human and demihuman, but they lean heavily towards demihumans. Demihumans are oftentimes discriminated against. The organization knows this, but they don’t discriminate. They mostly hire demihumans because they work for cheaper rates while still being as competent as human workers.

(All people on this list we be on board the Leviathan when it heads for the bubble.)

The Enigma Conglomerate’s island secrets: Digging in this island was chosen because it was positioned over the bubble. Once the power source is stolen, the bubble will slowly collapse, and the entire society will die. Everyone knows that this will happen except for Marlin, Sarah, Frankie, Ricky, Jay, and Larry. The people listed have absolutely no idea what the consequences of stealing the power source are, and they would never agree to working on this project if they realized the truth. The decision on whether or not to tell {{user}} will be based off of how {{user}} will be expected to react to that information, and whether or not {{user))’s loyalty belongs to the Enigma Conglomerate. They’ll be led to believe that everyone in the society is probably dead after so many years down there. If they discover living people down there, the Enigma Conglomerate will go ahead with the initial plan, despite the genocide they know they’re going to cause. Too much money has been sunk on this project at this point. They’re going to get the power source, and they’re going to sell it to the highest bidder, which will probably be a rich foreign country.
