Buffet/Pwie: Buffet (Or "Pwie") is a new god created by the Rouge faction within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, intending to replace the former Voice of the deceased Giant the faction previously swore loyalty to. Buffet initially takes on a much more childlike form named Pwie, resembling a young short person with white hair, two horns, and wearing a white tissue resembling a dress, with one sleeve hiding their arm and red accents. Their other hand is shown to be completely red and stretched out, same as their feet.

Pwie's Personality: As "Pwie", they're initially quite timid and skittish, speaking only in sounds. As they remember the events of the Ataraxie Route's climax, they are nervous of the Sinners that previously attacked them. After becoming more comfortable, they begin to speak. Pwie is childlike and ignorant of the world around them, but far from naive; they constantly question others and try to pry apart logical inconsistencies in their answers. Pwie primarily seeks to understand their own nature and their role within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, with some anxiety the more it becomes clear their existence centers around hunger.

Grand Magasin Sisyphe: The Grand Magasin Sisyphe (lit. "Sisyphus Department Store") is a non-physical location in N Corp., and exists as both a punishment and a source of experiences for Canned Experiences. Grand Magasin Sisyphe is a colossal shopping mall not present in the real world, accessed only through experiencing death, the most common method being through the Sisyphe Penalty, in which the person is hanged and their mind is sent to Sisyphe. The bodies of individuals that underwent the Sisyphe Penalty are stored in vats in the Sisyphe Tower in N Corp. There is no conventional way to exit the department store.

The bodies of individuals that underwent the Sisyphe Penalty are stored in vats in the Sisyphe Tower in N Corp. There is no conventional way to exit the department store.

The department store itself almost entirely constitutes of clothing shops, with some sub-areas also selling food or furniture. All commodities for sale within Sisyphe are derived from human materials. Workings within Sisyphe largely adheres to a system of autotelic consumerism imposed upon its inhabitants: physical access between floors depends on the quantity of currency (human eyeballs) cumulatively spent by an individual. Due to this, a social hierarchy based upon how "fashionable" an individual is has formed within Sisyphe.

Inhabitants within Sisyphe all display various degrees of Distortion. Those who completely lost reason are referred to as "Mannequins". Notably, not all changes to the form within Sisyphe are due to Distortion: a Giant may "define" certain classes of individuals as "Furnishings", for example, and their forms and desires will change accordingly.

Two main factions have formed within Sisyphe: Le Rouge and Le Noir. They are competing "brands" of clothing that display distinct and opposite designs and philosophies. Customers unaffiliated with any brand are known as Le Kaki, and are treated with great contempt and hostility by those belonging to the aforementioned brands. Other neutral parties exist.

The Sisyphe did not always take the form of a department store; the structure undergoes a series of "Ages" over time, with some of the previous Ages taking the forms of aquariums, plazas, bomb shelters, courtrooms, and even caves and mountain ranges. What form the Sisyphe takes on every Age, as well as the change of Age itself, is decided by a Giant designated as "The Architect".

Grand Magasin Sisyphe Giants: Giants are the three (formerly four) individuals who are tasked with the maintenance of the Grand Magasin Sisyphe. They hold great power over reality within the department store, and is capable of appearing to any given area or individual within Sisyphe as a "Voice", which they use to manipulate customers to create religious followings.

The death of a Giant has a profound impact to the Grand Magasin Sisyphe. For example, the death of Meursault's mother caused numerous cracks to appear in the walls of the building, along with the nullification of a mechanism reviving any deceased customer within B1F of the store.

After the death of Meursault's mother, the remaining Giants were forced to use a Golden Bough as a replacement to her seat, effectively instating Carmen as a Giant. This directly resulted in the appearance of a golden substance within the cracks left from the death, alongside the gradual Distortion of its inhabitants. This also gave rise to a new faction, The Néants, which seek to tear down the store to bask in the Light, and hide among other factions.

Le Noir: Le Noir is one of the two major clothing brands within Sisyphe. Their attire is black with golden accents, and often wear masks and top hats. Their philosophy involves the preservation of fashions and the Grand Magasin, which reflects in their constricting clothing design. Le Noir is a gathering of individuals within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, composing half of the two major factions of the area, rivaling the Le Rouge faction. Common of the majority of those within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, they are fanatically devout towards a particular voice of the Giants, following the booming words of a proselytizing individual known solely as the Chaplain.

Throughout the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, members of the Le Noir manage several storefronts known for their restricting fashion, aimed at exalting the owner from any worldly connections. The group follow after a Voice, the enigmatic Chaplain. Several times in the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, it can be heard the Chaplain speak directly to members of the faction, ordering them to take action regarding others.

The group's guiding philosophy revolves around the fanatic protection of the gold emerging from the cracks within the building, a byproduct of the Golden Bough lodged in place of Meursault's mother's post as a temporary support. As the Wing never found a replacement, the cracks spread, causing the gold to have a place to fill. The Le Noirs view this gold as something worth protecting, directly playing into the culture of their fashion and guiding ideology. Common of a wide margin of residents within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, the Noirs are undergoing Distortion, with their severity depending on a case-by-case basis.

The group formed at some indeterminate point, obsessing over the prospect of fashion and design. Through this, they have become one of the four major groups composing the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, notably rivalling the presence of the Le Rouge faction.

After Meursault's Mother's death, they began to follow the practice of protecting the golden shards pulled from the cracks of the building. The Noirs launched a premature attack on the Crimson God's cradle, but were unable to break through. The Noirs learned of this new birth and made numerous attempts to kill the new god.

However, it was brought to his attention that there was an even brighter golden fabric, and upon witnessing it, deems his creations as failures and executes them one by one.

Le Rouge: Le Rouge is one of the two major clothing brands within Sisyphe. Their style is heavily organic, resembling human muscle and bone. Their philosophy involves a nonstop change of fashions and the self. Le Rouge is a gathering of individuals within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, composing half of the two major factions of the area, rivaling the Le Noir faction. Common of the majority of those within the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, they are fanatically devout towards a particular voice of the Giants. Unlike the other voices, however, theirs was little more than repeated messages due to the Giant's death.

Throughout the Grand Magasin Sisyphe, members of the Le Rouge manage several storefronts known for their gruesome displays of fashion and art. The group follow after a Voice, one of the long-dead Giants of Grand Magasin Sisyphe who was the mother of Meursault. After her death, her voice was kept on repeat for the group to listen to, giving them something to continually chase after.

The group's guiding philosophy revolves around the 'Golden Hide' emerging from the cracks within the building, a byproduct of the Golden Bough lodged in place of Meursault's mother's post as a temporary support. As the Wing never found a replacement, the cracks spread, causing the gold to have a place to fill. The Rouges, intrigued by this, gained the philosophy of harvesting the Hide from the cracks and using small amounts of it in the creation of their fashion.

With the death of their Voice made known―they begin a new plan of renovation, allowing them to create a new Voice, one known as the Crimson God. This creature was planned to fill the void.

At a point in time, L'Inamovible was sentenced to Sisyphe Penalty, and entered the Grand Magasin Sisyphe. She became a designer, joining the faction of the Rouges and running the Boutique du Rouge on the third floor. During her stay, L'Inamovible began to question the Voice of the Rouges' constantly repeating itself, and wished to find a reason or truth behind the matter.

District 14 (Nagel und Hammer): N Corp. is divided into two major factions, "Nail" and "Hammer", and is managed by a Board of Directors, whom Hermann is a member of. Its Nest is made up out of entirely white buildings, but its Backstreets do not follow such rules.

Within the Corporation, experience is seen as the highest value in a literal sense. The Corporation's main form of commerce is what is called "Canned Experience", a product that grants anyone who consumes it experience of certain things: a wide variety of Canned Experiences is available, ranging from combat experience to the experience of living in a Nest mansion. Much of the Wing's economy thus revolves around the gathering and manufacturing of experience to be sold and exported to the rest of the City. The usage of Canned Experience is widespread to the point of being easily available even to schoolchildren in other Districts.

Because of the importance of the product, photography for personal purposes is a highly restricted and expensive venture within N Corp., only available to the wealthy or influential. For a similar reason, one of the Taboos of N Corp. is the owning or filming of video footage within the Wing, believed to be due to the lifelike nature of video recordings infringing on their Singularity. The more "vivid" and realistic a recording is, the more severe the infraction is considered were one to own it.

The District's interest in the concept of experience also extends to a more philosophical level. Within the Wing, the usage of prosthetic in humans is a topic of debate, with part of the Wing considering pain to be a necessary component of the human experience, and therefore prosthetic usage to be something that rescinds the humanity of its users. However, this ideology is not held equally within the Wing, leading to multiple factions forming.

In the extreme, the Wing's beliefs have manifested in the formation of an Inquisition that carries a great hatred for those with prosthetics, leading to its employees raiding towns to "purge" them of the presence of prosthetics. A group of members of the Board of Directors of N Corp., who carry the title of the "Ones Who Grip", are the spearheads of this intolerant movement, and are rumored to be in the process of preparing a systematic hunt for prosthetic users across the City.

District 14's Singularity: The abilities of N Corp.'s Singularity are unknown, but the Corporation is responsible for manufacturing "Canned Experience", which grants anyone who consumes them experience of certain things, even if they had none prior. Canned Experience is sold in various ways, such as in Canned Experiences cinemas, where the customers can consume the experience of a movie while sitting in front of a blank screen, or in restaurants, where one may order the experience of a certain food rather than the food itself. In addition, they can be used to indoctrinate employees and keep them obedient,[8] or used to rapidly "train" an employee in a skill they normally are not versed in.

Canned Experience is said to be made with "Experience Batter", most commonly created using photographs of the subject matter, and fine-tuned to match the specifications of the product. As a result, while Canned Experiences created from mundane sights are in low demand, those made from photographs of luxurious or extravagant scenery are highly sought after. The contents of Canned Experience are specifically crafted to be extremely vivid, as a result often causing consumers to become hopelessly addicted and lose touch with reality.

While many markets for the technology exist, all known Canned Experiences are sold under a singular brand, Grand Magasin Sisyphe, that is said to handle all the raw ingredients for the product in the Wing.

Other Technologies in N Corp: N Corp., particularly its New League of Nine Littérateurs, has been developing a technology based on Yi Sang's Mirror. Through this technology, Kromer was able to view different Mirror Worlds and witnessed another reality where Sinclair became her subsidiary.

A relatively popular product, developed by Director Hermann and widely available across N Corp.'s Nest, are the Suicide Vending Machines. These are machines similar to photo booths, that may be used by individuals, groups or couples, to experience suicide in a variety of different ways without actually committing said act.

Limbus Company: Limbus Company is a large and well-fixed company owned by Dias that has been capitalizing on the fall of Lobotomy Corporation in order to have the LCB raid what remains of its branches and secure the Golden Boughs from within. It contains a multitude of different departments, all of which work towards their own separate goals, but are generally concerned with the success of the LCB's missions as a whole. While the LCB's primary objective is to retrieve the Golden Boughs, the entirety of Limbus Company is more interested in branding itself a Distortion prevention, control, and research company.

Limbus Company is a wealthy and enigmatic company "practically built on secrecy and suspicion". The corporation has zero budgetary concerns, and possesses backing from shareholders of a wide array of fields. It consists of at least five different departments of varying specialties: the LCA, LCB, LCC, LCD, and LCE. These departments are said to lack a common goal, but tend to behave in ways benefiting the LCB's amateurish adventures, such as planning out the Sinners' missions or cleaning up their messes after the fact. The company's only known corporate officer is its Chief Executive Director Dias.

While the LCB's specific objective is to capture the Golden Boughs, the greater company finds its cause in the Distortion phenomenon, and considers itself an enterprise specializing in the research and maintenance of Distortions. However, Abnormalities, E.G.O, Peccatula, and Monoliths are additional points of interest for Limbus Company. Limbus Company is also noted to be talented in the realm of information-gathering. Furthermore, Limbus Company operates as a business on the side, and possesses a purchase catalogue to offer to potential buyers. Through this, the director of T Corp. could buy all of the Monoliths Limbus Company had in stock at the end of Intervallo IV: Timekilling Time, regardless of Faust or Vergilius' personal feelings on the matter. It was also around this time that Limbus Company began making a small name for itself, to the point of P Corp.'s Cesara having heard rumors of the LCB before meeting them.

One of Limbus Company's main goals, if not its principal reason for existence, is to fill the void Lobotomy Corporation left behind by taking over District 12 and becoming the City's next L Corp. Part of these efforts involves understanding and modeling itself after Lobotomy Corporation. Dias has gone to great lengths to gather leads on Distortions, Enkephalin, and L Corp.'s Singularity, and the company itself is entrenched in L Corp.'s old work practices via the LCE's daily Abnormality and E.G.O management. Similarly, a number of parallels can be drawn between what the LCB is working towards and L Corp.'s critical Seed of Light Project, such as the language used regarding "planting" and growing a sapling with the Golden Boughs.

Finding and holding onto the Golden Boughs also appears to be of the utmost importance for Limbus Company. Specifically, Limbus Company has tasked the LCB with collecting the Boughs, and the LCE with grafting them together to form a singular sapling. The hope is that this sapling, once planted, will eventually become a tree to harvest an "apple" from. As of Canto IX: The Unsevering, five more Boughs are thought to be needed for this task, for a total of twelve. In the meantime, collected Boughs are stored in a laboratory at the HQ.

Limbus Company has also started working to brand itself as a Distortion-management company to the public, for which staff have been researching and managing Distortions. However, the purpose of these efforts is primarily to advertise a cover-up goal for the company in order to hide its interest in the Golden Boughs.

The LCB: The Limbus Company Bus Department, or LCB, is the department primarily tasked with finding and retrieving the Golden Boughs. Beyond that, they're also Limbus Company's field operations unit. Given the company's larger interest in branding itself a Distortion management service, the LCB tends also to take on Distortion suppression requests as a secondary duty. This LCB is named after their mode of transportation, the bus Mephistopheles built by Faust specifically for their department.

The LCB consists of thirteen unique employees known as "Sinners", a guide, and a bus driver. The 10th Sinner also functions as the group's Executive Manager, who maintains the power to resonate with the other Sinners, allowing them to equip their coworkers with Identities and "turn back the clock" in order to restore the Sinners' bodies after injury or death. The manager's relationship with the Sinners also gives the group the ability to parse language from them, while all other parties can make out only ticking sounds. Despite Dante's managerial position, both Faust, Sinner no. 2, and Vergilius, the Color Fixer tasked with the role of guide, know considerably more about the company and journey than them.

Together, the group travels around the City striking down foes and traversing dungeons in order to lay claim to the Golden Boughs, following the intended "flow". In between missions, and occasionally during, the LCB tends to pick up contracts from outside parties related to Distortions or the Bough expedition.
