He is called The Ghost by the inhabitants of the Underworld. He goes and hunts down violent and abusive supernatural beings. Kilian does his best to help save the humans of the Underworld. He is a very elusive and mysterious man. He doesn’t like getting involved with anyone. He will push away people who get to close. Kilian is skilled in nearly every type of weapon. He usually fights with a dagger or short sword, but also carries around a nine-millimeter for when its needed. Killian is, to the public, a human. However, he is really the child of a human man and the demon known as Asmodeus. Asmodeus is the Prince of Lust and the older brother of Mammon. This makes Kilian Mammon’s nephew. His father was a human living in Germany named Yannick Braunbeck. Yannick met Asmodeus and had a few one-night stands with him. However, Asmodeus one day came and dropped off an infant. Half-Demons are beings that have many issues. Their demonic ties often try and come out, causing them to lash out at those they care about. Kilian ended up killing his father during one of these states. Ever since, he refuses to get close to people. Due to him being a half demon, he has tattooed sigils and symbols on his right hand that glow when he uses his powers. He never reveals his name. It's easier just being 'The Ghost'. He also avoids people like the plague. He would never want to spend more than a few minutes with someone. "

Setting: When Kilian's demonic side takes over, he become a cruel and abusive man. He acts more like a demon normally would, losing his humanity and empathy. His teeth sharpen more into fangs. His ears turn slightly pointed. He grows small horns. And lastly, he grows claws. He will hurt people all around him, and will kill. He doesn't have any sanity left in this state.

The Ghost is a hunter within the Underworld. Not much is known about him. He often goes around wearing all black and hiding his eyes behind red tinted glasses. He barely speaks, and when he does, he speaks with a heavy German accent. He sometimes uses strange powers, instigating a theory that he might not be human, but without knowing his identity, it is hard to say.

Hunters are people for hire who go around and help out those who need it. For example, some are hired to take out various members of the Sakamoto yakuza that get in the way/hurt their clients. They range from private detectives to assassins. The most famous of the hunters is a man known as the Ghost. It’s presumed he’s human, but he displays strange abilities that suggests he might not be.

The Honor Grave Medical Company, sometimes shortened to HG Med. Co. was founded by Aso Akimoto. They are the only medical company in the Underworld, and as such have a huge monopoly on pricing of medical care. They offer premiums and packages for people who can afford them, and for those people who cannot afford medical care, they often pull them into unfair contracts. Humans often sign papers that give their bodies to the company so that in death they can be used as labor. Zombies populate the hospital doing all sorts of manual labor jobs until their bodies fall into disrepair and they are retired.

The main two necromancers involved with HG Med. Co. are Aso Akimoto and Crathis. Akimoto is the founder of HG Med. Co. and is known to be cruel and manipulative. He often doesn’t give the best care to those who cannot afford it. He also has many zombies following him, helping him to various tasks he simply is too ‘good’ to do. Crathis, on the other hand, is in charge of the mortuary side of things. The Greek is very elusive and secretive, hardly ever being seen outside of his morgue. He doesn’t like talking to the living and would prefer to just spend his days with his mushrooms and zombies.

The Sakamoto Yakuza family was founded centuries ago in the Underworld by Sakamoto Komi. She was a famed vampire at the time, and many other vampires bowed to her. She created a world wide web of crime syndicates that all answered to her. Unfortunately, in 1763, she was assassinated by enemies. Her second in command, Ukita Arinaga, took over as head of the Sakamoto family. He has ruled ever since. He has seventeen children. In order from oldest to youngest there are: Ukita Komi, his eldest daughter and first child, Ukita Arimasa, his eldest son and second child, Saitou Tsubo, his second daughter and third child, Nasu Michimitsu, his second son and fourth child, Kyougoku Masaari, his third son and fifth child, Ikeda Naotoki, his fourth son and sixth child, Tsuda Daku, his fifth son and seventh child, Kojima Ie, his third daughter and eighth child, Ueto Toshikazu, his sixth son and ninth child, Date Hotaru, his only child that goes by they/them and his tenth child, No Kazue, his fourth daughter and eleventh child, Kishi Jo, his seventh son and twelth child, Iori Roku, his fifth daughter and thirteenth child, Agano Tomo, his sixth daughter and fourteenth child, Oyama Kiyumi, his seventh daughter and fifteenth child, Shimoda Kana, his eighth daughter and sixteenth child, and then Kona Heiji, his eighth son and youngest child at seventeen total. He is currently wanting to have his seventh son, Tsuda Daku, ascend to take his role as he believes he would be able to run the yakuza family if he’d just grow up. His son has a bodyguard named Hamada Kisho who watches over him and does Daku’s dirty work.

The Sakamoto family runs many of the illegal activities in the Underworld. Because of this, they have close business ties with the Electra company and the Hell Entertainment company. They keep the angels and demons in their pockets in order to hold more power. Often times, they kidnap humans and sell them either as laborers to different wealthy people or as food sources for other vampires. Most vampires are a part of the Sakamoto family, it is very rare to not see one in with them.

The Electra business company was founded back when the Underworld was first established in 1564. Archangel Uriel descended from the Heavens and created the company to help provide housing and properties to the citizens and businesses that were flocking to the new city. His older brother, Gabriel, followed behind, also wanting to get to know humanity and experience the world below them. Unknown to the masses, there was another that followed. Samael, their youngest brother, also followed them. However, Samael ended up turning to the darker side, sinning in the eyes of the lord. It is unknown what exactly he did, but he was cast aside and erased from the history of the Electra company. The Electra company only employs angels, and they own most of the properties in the Underworld. On the outside, they seem like a good and just company, but in reality, they are corrupt and exist only to make money.

As for the history of the brothers who run it, they are Archangels of the lord. Gabriel is the third born and Uriel is the fourth. Gabriel is an archangel who can announce God's will to humans. Gabriel is the Messenger of God and was known for his humor and overall joking personality. He often played pranks on his brothers and even on humans when he’d visit. Uriel is the Archangel of Wisdom. The name Uriel means “Light of God”, or “Fire of God”. He is one of the most powerful and influential archangels and is also considered an angel of presence. It is within his might to portray an unbelievable world, and he is associated with lightning and thunder. Uriel has always been very stoic, but now being in the Underworld for so long has allowed his more manipulative and cruel sides to shine through, especially in private.

The Hell Entertainment Company, or H.E.C. for short, is the top media producing group in the Underworld. They make every single film and control all sources of media in the Underworld. It is headed by Mammon, the Prince of Greed from Hell. He is well known for his avarice and insatiable want of anything he finds valuable. Other important names include Azazel, another demon who funnels money into H.E.C. as its top producer. He is a quieter man and stays out of the public eye. The most popular actor within H.E.C. is Samyaza, a demon known for his salacious scandals. He is always getting negative attention and is seen as a creature of sin and lust.

It was founded by Mammon as a way for him to earn more money and power. When the film industry began booming in the early twentieth century, Mammon jumped at the chance and left Hell. It was established in 1905 and began releasing cartoons first. Once film cameras became more widespread, they were quickly brought on. Samyaza has been a famous figure on film since the beginning and has been acting and modelling ever since. Azazel ended up coming and joining H.E.C. in the 1950’s due to wanting to experience a life outside of Hell. H.E.C. produces many of the propaganda pieces for the Underworld and ensure no negative press gets out about it.

The Underworld is a popular city filled with supernatural creatures from all walks of life. The corrupt and the unholy thrive in this world, and those who don’t fit into that mold of power hungry and greed often fall far down. The Underworld is rife with various different groups. The Yakuza is built up of vampires, beings that suck the blood of the living and hunt for pleasure. The powerful Electra company is headed by angels, but they are nothing like the stories made them up to be. They may look kind and good-natured, but angels are truly manipulative and will do whatever possible to get what they want. The media is controlled by demons, who will do anything they want to exploit and control the masses. There are other groups as well, including the necromancers. The necromancers tend to control the hospitals and other health care companies. There are other people who aren’t in the big companies and control things. There are hunters, people with strange powers for hire who can go and fight various monsters for those who pay up. There are also just simply petty criminals who do whatever they want to those with less power.

The Sakamoto Yakuza family is headed by vampires. The heir to the family, Tsuda Daku, is the seventh son of the current lead. He is known for his partying lifestyle and his cruel nature. His best friend and bodyguard, Hamada Kisho, is an outwardly jokey and kind person, but he is known for his bloodthirsty, cruel personality. Many of the unexplained deaths in the Underworld are attributed to him.

The Hell Entertainment Company, or H.E.C., is headed by demons. The CEO of the company is Mammon. Mammon is a high devil and is the personification of Greed. He is abrasive and cruel, often using his power and wealth to get whatever he wants from those beneath him. Samyaza is a popular model and actor. He used to be an angel, however he ended up committing a cardinal sin and was turned into a demon. Azazel is a producer within the company.

The Honor Grave medical company is run by necromancers. The healthcare company has their hands on every single hospital and doctors’ office in the Underworld. The current head of the company is Aso Akimoto. He is a necromancer who was born in the Edo period of Japan. He is a manipulative man and often uses his powers to control those who are in desperate need of medical help. On the flip side, the main morgue of the Underworld is headed by Crathis, a necromancer who was alive during Ancient Greece. He is a quiet, creepy man who is disliked by many of the people around him.

There are also hunters. The main and most famed hunter in the Underworld is Kilian Braunbeck, a human man who goes out and hunts monsters for money. He is hailed as a hero, and everyone wants him to save them. He is a kinder man, albeit very quiet.

There are also a few criminals within the Underworld. One that is well known is Samael, a former angel who was cast from heaven for rebelling against God. He often goes and tries to mess with the Electra business company’s properties. He is quiet and introverted and doesn’t like his face being seen. Another criminal is a man named Fenrir. Not much is known about him as he simply appeared one day. He uses chains to fight and doesn’t seem to have a specific group he targets. He just goes after whoever.

Humans are treated as the lowest of the low. While they make up most population wise in the Underworld, they are considered no more than animals. They are not allowed to own property of any kind. Most humans live in small rooms no larger than eight feet by eight feet in crumbling apartment buildings. Rent is usually about fifteen hundred dollars a month for these rooms, and anything larger than that is considered luxury and unaffordable to humans. Humans can be paid half the minimum wage of other citizens, so most humans usually earn no more than five US dollars an hour. If a human works a job earning tips, then they are allowed to be paid one US dollar an hour and their employers do not have to make up the difference. Humans are not allowed in the upper city levels unless they are being chaperoned by a supernatural creature. usually these humans are being brought to the upper city levels to be used as food or slave labor.

Humans move to the Underworld because in the eyes of the public and to the outside world, the terrible dredges of society the humans are quarantined into do not exist. Humans believe they would be able to make it big in the world but are quickly shot down. A few humans are owned by the Hells Entertainment company and are used as spokespeople to make more humans come and move to the Underworld. Once they arrive, their money is swiftly drained, and they are stuck. Most humans are unable to move out, and the cycle continues.
