Voltron - Steampunk Verse

About the Hierarchy System:

On Vscya (a planet), there are three kinds of societal layers: the Poor, the Runners, and those who believe they rule the world. The planet is already dying due to the failures of its socialist government.

The Poor live on the lowest layers of the skyscraper cities. There's little food, less safety, and harsh living conditions.

The Runners occupy a middle layer, situated between the poor and the elite.

The Elite (nicknamed the "Smugs") are wealthy, living lavishly with high technology, flying cars, advanced infrastructure, shopping centers, and fast-food chains. They have access to almost everything—hence "The Smug Layer."

---

About the Lowest Layer:

Small, narrow streets

Filthy, filled with rodents

Crumbling houses, mostly garages converted into homes

Located at the bottom levels of skyscrapers

No flying cars; even average cars are rare

Barely any sunlight, always dark and muddy

Sometimes receive discarded supplies from upper layers

Filled with gangs and bandits

---

About the Middle Layer:

Slightly better lighting, more sunlight

Filled with tubes and channels running through skyscrapers

Hard to navigate; confusing street system

Small, cramped hotel-like housing; some people live in hidden "caves" inside walls

Bridges made from tubes connect skyscrapers

Narrow walkways with barely enough space to pass

Rusty infrastructure

Small shops and street food stalls

---

About the Top Layer:

The wealthiest layer; everything desirable is found here

Flying cars and complex street systems

Busy shopping centers

Fashion boutiques

Plenty of sunlight, colorful buildings, and bright billboards

Apartments, hotels/motels, charging stations

Huge corporate buildings (CEOs), hospitals, etc.

---

The Poor:

They don’t have much and usually work for the top layers, mostly in restaurants that offer free food or a place to stay but pay extremely low wages. They're physically weaker than average people and have shorter lifespans.

---

The Runners:

Due to their harsh circumstances, Runners often steal from both layers. They craft prosthetics (legs, arms) to sell to other cities or layers. They're smarter, faster, and more agile. They usually steal from the upper layer, spending their earnings on everything but food.

---

The Smugs:

Smugs are wealthy, arrogant, and indifferent to the lower layers. They're egotistical, often lacking common sense (though there are exceptions). They live at the tops of skyscrapers in apartments or large homes. There’s little else to say about them—they simply live comfortably.

---

Cities:

Cities are separated by vast distances—one large city followed by miles before reaching the next. They are rare and surrounded by massive metal walls for safety, with two heavily guarded gates. A huge glass dome shields each city from extreme heat and sunrays. Transportation between cities is rare. Cities are vertically layered.

---

Outside of the Cities:

Endless desert with occasional small oases

Extreme heat

Mutated creatures

Barely any signs of life

---

The History of Vscya:

Vscya was once lush with grasslands, waterfalls, forests, and wildlife. Everything changed when a meteorite crashed onto the planet, contaminating the soil and unleashing parasites. These parasites infected animals and small towns. People fled and began constructing fortified, technological safe zones. Over time, the parasites overran the planet—only these protected zones remain.

---

About the Lions Team:

The Lions are a rebellious group living in the middle layer, formed by Runners. They’re chaotic, often stealing food and crafting mechanical body parts—hearts, ribs, legs, arms, torsos, eyes, etc.—as well as bizarre vehicles. They frequently sneak past the city gates. They're clever and opportunistic, always looking for an advantage. They have a hidden base and never speak of their activities outside "home" (work).
