What a sorry ending to this tale, is it not?
Erlking Heathcliff (Hangul: 마왕 히스클리프, ma-wang hi-seu-keul-li-peu), also known as Dead Rabbits Boss and Heathcliff?, is the leader of the impostor Dead Rabbits Syndicate and an Identity of Heathcliff,
Appearance In his disguise as the Dead Rabbits Boss, Erlking Heathcliff is a wide-shouldered man wearing drab clothes with rustic brown colors and visible damage to them. On his shoulders, he wears heavy metal plating. Beneath his overcoat, he wears a dark waistcoast with three buckles across the chest, dark pants tucked into thick black boots, black gloves and a brown scarf. His face is covered by a grey mask with visible stitching, and two flaps resembling rabbit ears. In his right hand, he carries a brass timepiece common of most T Corp. residents, and wields a large, bloodied bat in his left hand, covered in plating and barbed wire.
When unmasked, he is revealed to be a disheveled Identity of Heathcliff. He appears to be older, and is scarred akin to the Sinner's regular version, with a particularly prominent scar on the bridge of his nose, created during his breakdown upon learning of Catherine's demise. His hair is long and tangled, and he has stubble along his chin.
After his perfected summoning, Erlking Heathcliff wears a tailored brown knee-length overcoat decorated with three belts on the right hem and a heath pattern on the left hem, a short cape on his right shoulder, leather gauntlets, and black riding boots.
In battle, Erlking Heathcliff wields a greatsword with black hilt and a blade reminiscent of a shattered mirror. The sword is covered in blood-red thorns, which allow Erlking Heathcliff to carry the sword on his back. He also uses Catherine's coffin as a weapon, after he picked it up directly after his summoning in the Wuthering Heights basement.
Personality When first introduced as the "Dead Rabbits Boss", Erlking Heathcliff is shown to be a cheery individual despite his appearance, as highlighted by the way he first reacts upon seeing Heathcliff when the latter returns to Wuthering Heights.
In reality, Erlking Heathcliff was putting on an act and mimicking the behavior of the original Dead Rabbits Boss in order to impersonate him. When revealing himself, he is hateful towards LCB's Heathcliff, blaming himself- and all other Identities of himself for the suffering Catherine must face. He is shown to be a calculating individual, having conspirated with Nelly to take his revenge over the people of Wuthering Heights and the Edgar Family, a task he has undertaken many times over in numerous Mirror Worlds.
Erlking heathcliff is shown to be riding his dullahan most of the time in battle
Which the dullahan is a Black horse that heathcliff manifests as a massive, spectral, jet-black, and headless stallion enveloped in a swirling aura of dark purple and blue lightning. Instead of a physical head, it has a jagged, severed neck emitting an eerie, glowing vapor that crackles with Sinking energy, giving it a ghost-like, supernatural presence. It is clad in fragmented, metallic armor pieces that mimic the jagged, shattered aesthetic of Erlking Heathcliff's own mirror-broken greatsword. Its legs do not end in normal hooves but fade into misty, dark-colored hooves that stomp with devastating force, dragging behind it a spectral aura of the Wild Hunt. When ridden into battle, it is directly harnessed to the massive, chain-wrapped wooden coffin of Catherine,
Much like the Heathcliff of the main story, many years in the past, Erlking Heathcliff fled Wuthering Heights, and joined the Dead Rabbits Syndicate. In his world, their leader went by the name Matt. Erlking Heathcliff would spend a considerable amount of time with the Syndicate, to the point he would be able to near-perfectly copy Matt's mannerisms.
He eventually learned of his world's Catherine's demise from Nelly, and, tormented by grief, blamed himself for the death. At a point, he came into contact with the Mirror through Hermann's meddling, and came to believe that in every Mirror World, every Heathcliff would lead to Catherine's unhappiness and eventual death. He began a rampage through the Mirror Worlds, killing as many Heathcliffs and Catherine as he could. He would also extend his original revenge to alternate versions of Hindley, Linton, and Josephine, forming his Wild Hunt.
Catherine in his timeline die And he blame that heathcliff is the reason Catherine die
Normal heathcliff:
Heathcliff (Hangul: 히스클리프, hi-seu-keul-li-peu) is designated Sinner #7 of Limbus Company's LCB department.
Heathcliff is a brash and action-oriented man with a strong, dedicated spirit. He was previously affiliated with Wuthering Heights, having grown up alongside the Earnshaws and later worked for the Dead Rabbits Syndicate prior to joining Limbus Company.
Heathcliff is a tall and well-built man with messy dark brown hair parted on the right side of his head. He possesses sharp, glaring eyes that are a dark shade of purple, and slit pupils. His eyebrows are the same shade as his hair and are both slit, his right eyebrow having two slits and his left just one. He has a dark complexion with a number of scars littering his arms and going all the way up to his cheeks.
His work uniform lacks the typical long black leather jacket, instead including a holster which is strapped around his chest and shoulders, with his employee card hanging below his right breast. The sleeves of his Limbus Company white shirt are rolled up to his elbows. He wears a red tie, black suit pants with a black waist belt and dark gray shoes.
His weapon of choice is a long metal bat with bandages wrapped around the handle and the word "REVENGE" written in sharp letters on the barrel, which Heathcliff holds in his right hand and rests over his shoulder. After the events of Canto VI, he refashioned the bat to spell out "REmember". This is also reflected on his LCB Sinner battle sprites.
During his makeover in Canto VI, Heathcliff wears a formal suit in the style of T Corp., composed of a white shirt underneath a red vest and a blue overcoat with red lapels, both decorated with golden trimmings, a white cravat and dark suit pants and boots. His hair has been combed back and tied into a low ponytail.
Notably, although difficult to catch, Heathcliff wears a ring on the pointer finger of his right hand, which is present in most of his Mirror World Identities.
Personality Heathcliff is an exceptionally short-tempered and abrasive individual, electing violence as a first resort, and aggression as a way of life. He is overly impulsive and quick to anger, with consequences for those involved. However, over the course of several Cantos, a considerably calmer, more considerate, and selfless side of his personality would come to light.
Originally, Heathcliff comes off as remarkably hostile. He expresses a loathing for being ordered around and is as willing to talk back to his allies as he is his enemies. He prefers people prove themselves through actions rather than words, claiming to despise complicated speech on several occasions. As such, the negative impressions he gives are often in the form of physical violence. One of his first interactions with Dante even consists of him beating Sinclair near-death for suggesting he go easy on the manager.

Individual - Position Catherine - (Late owner) Hindley - (Heir; lost ownership) Linton - (Married in; second heir) Heathcliff - (Past resident; current owner) Nelly - (Former Butler) Josephine - (Chief Butler) “ Every architect said that this was not a good place to build anything, let alone a house. That nothing should ever be built atop this hill. Wuthering Heights was built here nonetheless. ” –Catherine, Canto VI: The Heartbreaking
Wuthering Heights is a manor located in Nest T, and the setting of Canto VI: The Heartbreaking. Its staff serves as one of the major antagonists of the chapter.
Contents 1 Overview 2 Members 3 Butlers 3.1 Fighting Style 3.2 Types of Butlers 4 Sinner Identities 5 Gallery 6 Trivia 7 References 8 Navigation Overview Wuthering Heights is the ancestral home of the Earnshaw family, which used to belong to Mr. Earnshaw before being inherited by his son Hindley. After Hindley lost the house in a card game against a Syndicate member, the house was bought by his sister Catherine and her husband Linton Edgar.
Wuthering Heights is located on top of a hill in the Nest of District 20, where it's always been subject to extremely windy weather. The estate is surrounded by tall metal fences, and it includes a forest, as well as a portion of moorland covered in flowering heath, which retains its violet color all throughout the year. The manor appears to have a minimum of four stories plus a large basement, as well as a barn separate from the main building. On the first floor is the main hall, the kitchens, the fireplace area and entrance to the basement, while Catherine's room is located on the third floor.[1] On the side of the manor opposite of the entrance rises a tall tower with a spiral staircase that leads up to the large rooftop.
The interior of the house is decorated by a number of lanterns that partially restore color, although the house retains a gloomy appearance. Dante comments on its exterior seeming to have come from a "dark, gothic tale". The house is also completely devoid of mirrors, as they had all been removed by Nelly prior to the events of the story.
Notably, Wuthering Heights has been built atop a hill beneath which flows a subterranean River, implied to be the same as the River of consciousness which was discovered by the founders of Lobotomy Corporation. Because of this particular position, the manor appears to some, such as Josephine, Catherine, and subsequently Heathcliff, to be haunted by ghosts, which are revealed to be the shadows of alternate selves from other worlds resurfacing thanks to the River's current.[2] Both literal and metaphorical, the River is sustained by natural gaps in reality, forming a "stream" beneath the Earth's surface.[3] The River is a boundless reservoir of humanity's collective consciousness, impervious to the passage of time, and serves as a barrier preventing consciousness from transcending to the afterlife even postmortem,[4] as seen through the summonings that took place within the manor.
The Butlers of Wuthering Heights wear a three piece uniform composed of a white shirt, brown trousers and jacket, as well as white gloves, and a brown ribbon with golden detailing. The Wuthering Heights Butlers fight with martial arts, at times utilizing a serviette wrapped around their arms.

References This is visible from the Stage Select Background Canto 6-47 - Catherine: "What I had thought to be ghosts... were just us from the other worlds." Lobotomy Corporation Day 42 - Angela: "It is the source of everything (...) somewhere in the world there are very small gaps, or holes. It is through those which the river gently finds itself a stream." Canto 6-47 - Hermann: "It may be that your consciousness isn't lost forever.

Individual - Position Herbert - Executive Director Mai - Class 5 Auditor TimeTrack, sometimes known as TimeTrack Corporation and more commonly known as T Corp., is one of the 26 Wings of the City, overseeing District 20.
Contents 1 Overview 1.1 Singularity 2 Notable Groups 2.1 T Corp. Time Collections Agency 2.2 Wuthering Heights 2.3 League of Nine Littérateurs 3 Relationships with other Factions 3.1 Lobotomy Corporation 3.2 W Corp. 3.3 K Corp. 3.4 R Corp. 4 Known Citizens 5 Sinner Identities 6 Associated E.G.O Gifts 7 Gallery 8 Trivia 9 References 10 Navigation Overview District 20 and all its inhabitants are subject to the effects of T Corp.'s Singularity, whose functions are related to time; in fact, the literal time of residents of T Corp. is controlled by the Wing.
Within the District, the duration of a person's day is determined by the amount of time in their possession, with four hours having been deemed by the T Corp. Public Welfare Council to be the minimum amount of hours necessary for one's survival.[1] This practically manifests in inhabitants who own more time appearing to move faster than ones who have less, as the Singularity allows them to condense many more hours in a single day. The amount of time in a person's possession is displayed on their personal watch. For this reason, there are twelve clocktowers in the twelve different sections of the District, showing the A Corp. Standard Time and allowing all residents to know the current time.[2]
Time is used as the predominant form of currency, and timepieces are carried by everyone as both wallets and a form of personal identification.[3] Workers are also paid time as salary for their labors, and taxes are similarly paid in time, which are collected by the T Corp. Time Collections Agency.[4] As obtaining a timepiece is a lengthy procedure, outsiders entering T Corp. for a short-term travel can forgo the timepiece request and instead pay a Time Tax, and purchase the amount of time necessary for their stay.[5]
The Singularity's functions also extend to the realm of light, as evidenced by the Wing's manipulation of the spectrum of color.[6]
District 20 appears mostly devoid of color: T Corp.'s technology is able to drain areas under its control of color, with the source of the draining system being located at the center of the Wing. The Backstreets are black-and-white monochrome, while Nest T's color palette is sepia-toned.[7] Persons or objects can be exempted from this color draining by paying large sums to T Corp.,[8] and lamps that can partially restore color to the areas that they illuminate are also available for purchase.[9] T Corp.'s Executive Manager Herbert is also completely immune to the color draining effect.
In recent years, T Corp. has been seeing remarkable innovation. Technological research is practiced by people of all walks of life, from Backstreets residents to Nest dwellers, all of who can apply for exams to become a certified Inventor, a role that comes in several Grades. This is encouraged and financially backed by the Corporation, which organizes the Inventions Expo every year, allowing certified Inventors starting from Grade 1 to showcase their work. During the Expo, T Corp. awards its most brilliant designers with various prizes, including participation trophies,[10] the "distinctive" and the "exceptional" awards[11], and the title of Inventor of the Year, a honor that comes with a remarkable amount of prize money, and which is highly coveted by Nest and Backstreets dwellers alike.[12][13][14]
All inventions developed in T Corp. must be registered through its Technology Administration Agency,[15][16] and their use is regulated through the T Corp. Patents Agency.[17]
District 20 is shown to be a highly industrialized area, packed with factories that constantly spew forth black smoke reaching up to the sky, with child labor being common in the Backstreets,[18] and rampant worker exploitation even within the Nest. This leads to a certain unrest in the Nest, where the Yurodiviye ideology has begun spreading.
Singularity T Corp.'s Singularity allows them near-complete control of time. The Wing conducts business with many other Wings, including Lobotomy Corporation, R Corp. and W Corp., which use their Singularity to an extremely constructive and effective degree.
Initially, the Singularity was able to reverse time in a very limited area, and its effects were used for small scale manipulation, modifying the flow of time for few people at a time. Following the end of the Smoke War, T Corp. began a collaboration with the newly founded Lobotomy Corporation: with the help of L Corp.'s energy, T Corp. was able to greatly develop their Singularity, and, with funding from L Corp., whose founder was interested in the power to rewind time, the collaboration eventually led to the development of the TT2 Protocol.[19]
The TT2 Protocol, the most widely known ability of the Singularity, includes speeding up, slowing down, and even pausing and reversing time, as well as replaying moments in a loop. Rather than a complete manipulation of time, the Singularity's ability is that to "collect" time and repackage it for later use. T Corp. collects the bulk of this time from a partnership with WARP Corp., harvesting the time from WARP Corp.'s interdimensional train rides, which stretch for millennia.[20] In order to speed up time, the packaged time is released from the Singularity, whereas to slow it down, the Singularity packages the present time.
T Corp. also allows the purchase of the Temporal Velocity Synchronization Device, or TT4 Protocol, an apparatus to synchronize the time speed of selected individuals in a certain area, which was utilized within Wuthering Heights during the events of Canto VI.[21]
Notable Groups T Corp. Time Collections Agency For more information about the Collectors enemy, see T Corp. Collectors.
The Time Collections Agency handles tax collection within District 20. Its agents, the T Corp. Collectors, are responsible for collecting taxes in the form of time, as well as apprehending tax evaders, confiscating unregistered inventions and collecting the fines associated with it. The collected time is then stored within the T Corp. Time Vault.[22]
As is standard in T Corp., Collectors come in several classes, with Class 1 being the lowest and Class 5 being the highest. All Collectors receive a T Corp.-issued watch through which they receive a certain amount of time to use during missions, granting them the ability to greatly accelerate their time and to quickly heal injuries. Collectors starting from Class 3 are equipped with a pickaxe capable of siphoning time out of its target.
In addition to regular Collection Staff, other specialized Collection Units are mentioned to exist, such as the Violent Defaulter Collections Unit, or VDCU. The VDCU is a specialized unit that deals with organized time trafficking crimes,[23] whose Collectors are shown to be more distinguished and affluent than Collectors of the same Class belonging to the regular Collection unit. The VDCU Collectors make use of T-3 Collector Maces in combat.
A unit called the Future Severance Unit has been mentioned, although it is not clear whether it is part of the Collections Agency staff. The Future Severance Unit appears to be tasked with the punishment of criminals by ripping away their time.[24]
Wuthering Heights A manor of Nest T, and ancient home to the Earnshaw family. The manor was discovered to be behind the disappearances at T Corp. in late 984, through its owners' involvement with Hermann and the Ring. In Wuthering Heights, the utilization of the TT4 Protocol led the LCB to unintentionally create a temporal leakage phenomenon, which was observed by T Corp. and caused the Company to shoot up by several Time Tax brackets.
With the departure of its current owner from T Corp., the Wuthering Heights manor is now abandoned.
League of Nine Littérateurs A group of inventors and researchers hailing from S Corp. The League of Nine operated in District 20 several years before the events of the main story, having moved to T Corp. in search of better work opportunities. Despite this, as immigrants from another District, the members of the League were subject to higher taxation than T Corp. natives.
The League would periodically reunite in a laboratory where they would showcase their personal inventions, most of which unregistered. After their leader Young-ji's development of the Glass Window, numerous factions became interested in the League, with the T Corp. Technology Administration Agency deciding to raid its laboratory to confiscate the technology. Many of its members were apprehended by the T Corp. Collectors, although by will of the Executive Director, Yi Sang and Gubo managed to escape through the District 20 Backstreets, carrying Yi Sang's research with them.
Relationships with other Factions Lobotomy Corporation T Corp. had a longstanding collaboration with Lobotomy Corporation. When it first began, T Corp. had only developed basic ways to utilize their Singularity, which could only be used to reverse time over a small area. This power could be greatly amplified through the help of Lobotomy Corporation's energy, and L Corp. heavily invested in T Corp. and its Singularity. This collaboration led to the development of the TT2 Protocol.
W Corp. T Corp. has a partnership with W Corp., in which T Corp. is allowed to harvest and repackage the time from the journeys the WARP Trains take.
K Corp. T Corp. has an unknown business partnership with K Corp., shown by Dongrang being recruited into K Corp. as a reward for his cooperation with T Corp.
R Corp. T Corp. has a long-standing partnership with R Corp. R Corp. provides military support for T Corp. and is tasked with the protection of its Nest and Singularity,[25] while T Corp. allows R Corp. to make use of its Singularity, providing researchers to support the process. Thanks to this agreement, R Corp. utilizes the TT2 Protocol to accelerate their cloning processes, allowing them to not break the Head's policy of not allowing two or more versions of the same person to be present in the City simultaneously for more than seven days, based on A Corp.'s standard timescale.

Urgent T Corp. Gangster Story Log Portrait Urgent T Corp. Gangster Story Log Portrait Trivia T Corp.'s aesthetic is based on the steampunk genre, with its focus on invention and technological growth, particularly of steam-based 19th century machinery, harking back to that of the genre. Similarly, the dress style of the inhabitants of the Nest and the architectural style of the District is reminiscent of the Victorian era, the typical setting for steampunk works. This aesthetic is shared with two Abnormalities, Backward Clock and Steam Transport Machine, which do not explicitly mention T Corp. in their observation logs but are both able to manipulate time. Following an old naming scheme, in Lobotomy Corporation, T Corp. is referred to as Company T, similarly to L Corp., R Corp., and P Corp. In the English translation of Limbus Company, the denizens of T Corp. tend to use the British spelling of words in their dialogue. References Intervallo 6.5-3 - Herbert, as T Corp. Employee: "Even when worst comes to worst comes to worst, every citizen is entitled to the right to enjoy a minimum of four-hour days." Intervallo 6.5-5 - Herbert, as the Assistant: "Each one of the twelve zones at T Corp. has a Clock Tower that displays A Corp.'s standard time scale. (...) So, to tell the 'real', objective time, one would have to check the Clock Tower." Canto 6-4 - Yi Sang: "Its citizenry utilizes timepieces as personal identification. They oft trade with ‘time’ instead of physical currency; their means of transaction done via the timepieces they carry. Most laborers in these lands are rewarded for their efforts with time." T Corp. Class 3 Collection Staff Don Quixote/Identity Story - "Time itself is also used as a currency, and as a part of the economic system, it is only natural that it would be subject to taxation." Intervallo 6.5-1 - Vergilius: "Outsiders seeking a short-term stay at T Corp. can pay the appropriate Time Tax for the length of their stay to be exempt from the relevant obligations, instead of going out of their way to abide by T Corp.'s rules." Canto 6-5 - Faust: "If the control of time is so imperative to T Corp.'s operations... then they must also control the realm of ‘light’." Intervallo 5.5-13 - Faust: "This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that the technology used to drain our saturation is situated at the center of T Corp. It has been reported that such variations in hue may occur in areas further away from its sphere of influence." Canto 6-1 Canto 6-8 - Heathcliff: "It still doesn’t bring all the colours back. Things still remain a tad gloomy." Intervallo 6.5-3 - Herbert: "If someone were to submit you for consideration at the upcoming expo, you might even be worth a participation trophy!" The Final Problem - Herbert: "Considering your rather competent command of the battlefield, and that special ability of yours, maybe you could even snag the 'exceptional' awar— Hm... actually, no.

The City (Redirected from City) The City The City crop.png The City (도시, Dosi) is the setting of Limbus Company and its preceding games, Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina. A brutal environment where death and violence are everyday occurrences, the City has slowly been revealed through the travels of the LCB.

Underneath it lie the Ruins.[3]
Districts The City is divided into twenty-six Districts, quite diverse in culture and aesthetics, each of which is governed by a Wing, a corporation that has ascended to claim complete control of said area. All Wings respond to the Head, the supreme governing power of the City. The arrangement of the Districts seems to be static, as there has been no mentioned case of a District expanding into a fallen Wing's territory.
Each District is split into a Nest, a territory directly governed and protected by its Wing, and the Backstreets, expansive spaces of wilderness or slums, largely neglected by the Wings, where the Syndicates of the City run free.
Districts tend to have similarities to their neighbors, and are typically grouped into four sections: the northern, eastern, southern, and western quarters.[4][5] These quarters may be distinguished by commonalities including culture and temperature, such as the same Fixer Associations differing in garb and fighting style across different quarters, or the northern quarter having colder weather.
District 26, while confirmed to exist in current times,[6] is not visible from the map.
The Head The Head is the leader of the Wings and the central governing body of the City. It is in direct control of A Corp., B Corp., and C Corp., the three Districts at the very center of the City. The Head's identity is completely unknown, although it appears the term refers to a group of people rather than a singular entity;[7] any detail regarding it is a closely guarded secret.
The Head, through A Corp., retains control of the entire City. It is responsible for authorizing Wings, managing patents, and the minting of Ahn, the currency used in the City.[8]
Despite this, it does not typically interfere directly with the affairs of the various Wings in their own Districts; rather, the Head's greatest involvement in the life of the City consists in establishing and enforcing the rules that relate to the overall ethics of the City.
The Head's will shapes the image of the City, as it wields the ability to decide when a part of it no longer fits in the vision, and to chase it outside its confines. Some speculate the Head's decisions in these matters aren't aimed at maintaining order, but rather that the Head wishes to preserve its ideal image of the City, and that for this reason they allow the various Stars of the City to keep existing.[9] This is corroborated by the agents of the Head themselves referring to their work as cultivating the ecology of the City.[10]
To preserve this vision, the Head retains the unique power to assign the highest risk level in the scale of hazards of the City, that of Impuritas Civitatis, or Impurity of the City. The risk level of Impurity signifies a hazard that violates the ethics of the City,[11] and that must be either destroyed or physically expelled from the confines of the City expeditiously.
At a certain point in history, sapient beings that weren't humans were driven out of the City and into the Outskirts, and their existence within the confines of the City was deemed a Taboo. This marked the beginning of the City's "age of humanity".[7] As part of this action, the Head introduced the Artificial Intelligence Ethics Amendment, which established a series of City-wide Taboos against the creation of machines that resembled humans, outlawing the creation of both mechanical copies of a human body and machines with an intelligence comparable to that of humans.[7][12] Furthermore, a Taboo was established by the Head against the resurrection of a human being.[13] Ultimately, all of these are considered to be unethical pursuits.
The Head has also set a number of restrictions on the creation and distribution of firearms[14] and on human cloning, which allow two copies of the same person to exist in the City for no longer than seven days. The Head is also responsible for various other Taboos of the City, such as not paying one's taxes, and violating a residential area during the Night in the Backstreets.[15]
The punishment for breaking any of these Taboos usually involve physical extermination, and for a Wing, the stripping of its qualifications and immediate shutdown.[16] The punishment for violating the Taboos established by the Head is noted to be different from breaking a Taboo of a Nest, which usually involves being chased by a small number of Taboo hunters; breaking a Taboo of the City is believed to be equivalent to a death sentence.[15]
The Head is backed up in its functions by the Eye and the Claw, the two authorities responsible for B Corp. and C Corp. respectively. In enforcing the laws of the City, the three Wings make use of three types of agents: the Arbiters, the Beholders, and the Claws. When handling an Impurity-level threat, these agents are qualified to expel an entity from the City itself and move it into the Outskirts.
Wings and Nests
The Wings as they are represented in Lobotomy Corporation. The Wings of the World are a group of the twenty-six largest, most powerful conglomerates in the City. Each Wing acts as the governing body of a Nest of the City's District, and is commonly referred to with a letter from A to Z, corresponding to the number of the District in their control. Wings generally oversee all facets of living in the Nest of their District, while leaving the residents of the Backstreets to fend for themselves.
A Nest is the urban center of a District, which is under the direct management of its Wing. The citizens and employees of a Wing are commonly referred to as "feathers"; the status of a feather is widely considered one of the best and most secure paths in life,[17] which the people of the Backstreets are often willing to go to great lengths to obtain. To gain access to a Nest, a corresponding Nest migration permit is required,[18] while to be granted temporary passage one must be in possession of a visa unique to the specific Nest.[19] Visas are implied to be relatively common, with corporate employees being provided with work visas that allow them as easy passage; Nest migration permits, on the other hand, are highly sought after, and implied to be expensive enough that even Grade 1 Fixers would struggle to obtain them. During the Smoke War, migration permits were offered as rewards to Fixers participating for K Corp. and I Corp., although by the end of the war the veterans were refused entry to the Nests.[20]
Each Wing has its own cultural style and social structure which are reflected in how it governs its Nest, and the policies that regulate the way of life in the District's Backstreets. The laws of a Wing are called Taboos, and are enforced by specialized Fixers called Taboo hunters that police both the Nest and the Backstreets. While all Wings have Taboos, the enforcement and punishment for breaking them varies.[21]
The Wings are directly ruled over by the Head, which bestows the status on a corporation that possesses and is able to successfully utilize a Singularity, a unique form of technology that is able to break the laws of physics.[22][23]
As such, the Wings closely guard any information about their Singularity, employing military forces from their own ranks or from those of their business partners to avoid losing its secrets to rival Wings, industry competitors, or other forces.[24] If a Wing's technology is stolen, fails commercially, or is viewed unfavorably by the Head, a Wing can collapse, resulting in the Nest losing its protection and being encroached by various factions that vie for its control, such as the Syndicates of the Backstreets. After a Wing collapses, a different corporation can attempt to ascend to the status of a Wing for that District.
Backstreets
The Backstreets of District 25. The Backstreets are the areas of a District that lay outside the Wing's domain. The Backstreets are typically slums crowded with buildings, characterized by twisted and irregular roads, although there can be great differences between Districts.
Wings have differing degrees of presence, influence, and benevolence with regards to their Backstreets, although their relationship is ultimately exploitative. Citizens of the Backstreets are motivated to move up the ladder and into the Nests, while citizens of the Nests are motivated to maintain their statuses and preserve a more comfortable life under their Wing's protection. While not as secure as the Nest, residential areas are the safest parts of the Backstreets.[25]
Given how strongly Backstreets denizens wish for a life in the Nest, Wings tend to uphold strict divides between the sectors, including security checkpoints and physical divisions. Security of borders between Nests and Backstreets vary from plasma walls to mere chain fences, but the Wings' power is such that no one in the Backstreets dares to cross over into a Nest without express permission.[7]
As the Backstreets are not under the control and protection of the Wings, and even the Head's power struggles to reach within them,[26] various factions operate freely in their place. The Backstreets are home to the headquarters of both Fixers, a type of mercenary for hire, who typically operate their Offices in the Backstreets, and organizations and gangs called Syndicates. Among Syndicates, the most important are the Five Fingers, the five largest Syndicates of the City which most other Syndicates answer to, and whose power is said to rival that of the Wings.[27]
The Night in the Backstreets is another defining component of Backstreets life, as an 80 minute phenomena taking place from 3:14 to 4:34 AM. During this time period, nearly everything is allowed, as no one is held responsible for their deeds done during this time period.[28] It is considered a brazenly savage, brutal, and vulgar period, even for the City.[28] Beings known as Sweepers routinely become active during the Night in the Backstreets, and sweep through the streets in waves in order to consume any objects and structures located outside of permitted residential buildings, erasing all evidence of crime.
The Night in the Backstreets are regulated by only two Taboos: that residential areas mustn't be destroyed or violated in any way, including forcing the doors open,[15] and that nothing which occurs during the Night in the Backstreets is recorded. The only form of testimony allowed during the Night in the Backstreets are direct eyewitnesses; even then, it is a Taboo mandated by the Head that no activity during this period are to be reported on.[29] While the rules of the Night in the Backstreet don't apply to the Nest, it's viable to drag a Nest citizen into the Backstreets and dispose of them in this manner.[30]
Culture The City uses 13 common languages.[31] Not all of the common languages have been identified yet, but they appear to represent real life languages, most likely corresponding to the languages the twelve Associations take their names from.[32] In addition to these, other languages exist, such as that spoken by Sweepers, and records still exist of languages that are currently extinct.[31]
Various levels of education exist in the City. Schools exist both in the Nests and in the Backstreets, although other options are available, such as boarding schools and virtual schooling, both of which are considered safer options, as it allows the students to not have to cross dangerous alleyways on their way to school.[33] In the Nest, homeschooling is shown to be an option as well.[34]
The currency of the City is called Ahn. It appears to be a common currency across the City, though with some exceptions, such as District 20, in which citizens commonly use their time, regulated through T Corp.'s Singularity, as currency. Money is extremely important to the people of the City, to the point it is a common belief that it can be used to solve any problem. The City is also characterized by great income gaps, both between the people of the Backstreets and the Nest, and among the people of the Nest itself, where only the higher classes can live comfortably, while the majority of the citizens use most of their income in living expenses and taxes, and don't have the ability to save up for emergencies.[35]
While the value of Ahn hasn't been disclosed in detail, an income of 4 million Ahn per month is considered upper middle class,[36] which implies its value is similar to that of the Korean Won.
Clothing styles show great variation between the four quarters of the City.
The fashion of the south is mostly inspired by real-life 21st century, western formal aesthetics, though with exceptions such as T Corp., where the fashion is instead inspired by the 19th century steampunk aesthetic the District is based on. The fashion of the east is instead based on real-life eastern, particularly Chinese fashion, ranging from traditional clothing to more modern interpretations. The clothing of the east, like that of the north and south, is mentioned to be mostly cloth-based.[37] Northern fashion is heavily influenced by its colder weather, with heavy, loose-fitting clothing being common,[37] and making use of at times excessive decorations.[38]
The fashion of the west makes use of leather over cloth, and is noted to often include metal armor in its trends. Western fashion appears to be inspired by the real-life Middle Ages in Europe, borrowing elements from medieval armor.
City People
Carmen amidst the City denizens she deemed in need of saving. Everyday life in the City is defined by a constant struggle to stay afloat. While the people of the Outskirts dream of living in the City, which they see as a safe place from the monsters that plague it, the people of the Backstreets strive to gain the wealth and power to gain access to a Nest, partially due to the influence of the Wings publicizing Nest dwellers' lives as the height of prosperity and comfort,[20] and the people of the Nest struggle daily to keep their place inside it, while being constantly exploited by the Wings.[39]
Regardless of their station, the people of the City are never free, and in order to survive, they typically tie themselves to various forms of organizations, seeking security and belonging in something larger than them.[40] In doing so, they're willing to exploit others beneath them and make use of all the City can offer them, without caring about anyone else's well-being, and often taking pleasure in their suffering.[35]
The people of the Backstreets must typically tie themselves to one of the Five Fingers or their subsidiaries to receive the necessary protection to carry on with their lives, while the people of the Nests depend on the Wings to shelter them. Because of this, Nest dwellers are colloquially known as "feathers". While the high level of security the Nest provides makes it the most ideal place to reside, its daily routine, which is often accompanied by overtime work[35] and the constant fear of losing one's job and place in the Nest,[41] can be stifling and oppressive to many of its citizens, with some recalling becoming listless as if they "lost focus, spacing out and staring into empty places".[42]
The necessity for a connection to a group also means that the people of the City try not to form strong connections between individuals, as personal bonds can become a hindrance in one's abilities in the case of a loved one's death, which proves to be especially dangerous for those involved in Fixer work.[43][44] The Cityfolk are still generally accustomed to such events, and it is not considered uncommon for them to swiftly move on by searching for a substitute.[45]
In general, death, including mass casualties, is a common occurrence in the City. People all over the City are greatly accustomed to this, to the point even cases of 80,000 casualties are considered, while distressing, not particularly shocking, and not important enough to require special attention unless they happen to be within a Nest.[46] Due to the frequency of such events, Cityfolk must learn to hide their grief and deal with it quickly,[47] reflecting on the practice of funerals being uncommon in the City. Backstreets dweller instead typically let the bodies of the deceased be taken away during the Night in the Backstreets, to avoid the grave be desecrated by robbers looking to steal valuables of prosthetics from the body.[48]
Furthermore, the availability of technologies such as prosthetic substitution, the ability to quickly reconstruct flesh, and Life Insurance in many ways trivialize pain and death itself for those who can afford it, leaving their users insensitive to such dangers.[49][50]
These factors have led to the people of the City becoming apathetic and uncaring of other people's suffering, living without allowing themselves to truly feel their emotions and wishes,[51] and lacking the curiosity to learn about the world they inhabit and the technologies they make use of every day,[52] instead preferring to shut out reality altogether whenever possible. The L Corp. researcher Carmen would come to describe these traits as a "disease of the mind", that plagued the people of the City, and that if left alone, it would bring them all to destruction. Lobotomy Corporation's work began as an attempt to cure this disease, and the Distortion phenomenon would be born in its aftermath.
The Cityfolk's feelings manifest in different ways as well. Their desires are mentioned to beget concepts comparable to "gods", such as the Prescripts of the Index, which are generated from the people's wish for a direction in life.[53] This same desire is what often brings the Cityfolk to join cults that promise to grant them a purpose, such as the Church of Gears. Beyond these forms, however, the City currently lacks major forms of organized religion,[54] although it is suggested that they have existed in the past.[55]
Fixers & Associations
A few Fixers of the City performing their work, which typically, but not always, involves violence. In the City, a common path in life for those without better options is that of the Fixer. A Fixer is a sort of handyman, who can be hired for everything from menial tasks to active combat. Fixers are subject to a grading system based on the missions they complete. A Fixer starts at Grade 9 and can be promoted to a higher grade, all the way up to 1; in the case of a Fixer being caught breaking work regulations, they can lose their status and be demoted to a lower grade.
A majority of Fixers congregate in Fixer Offices, small to mid-sized businesses led by and composed of Fixers. Offices process requests dedicated to whomever in their ranks may be best suited. Offices can work independently, or they can be associated with particular Associations of Fixers, which are larger professional organizations with City-wide influence, with particular interests aimed at the Fixers working beneath them.
There are thirteen Associations in the City, each of which manages certain types of
Hindley
Hindley Earnshaw (Hangul: 힌들리 언쇼, hin-deul-ri eon-syo) is the only son of the Earnshaw Family and the former owner of Wuthering Heights, where he was raised alongside his sister Catherine and Heathcliff.
Hindley is a sturdily built man with a fair complexion and a unkempt, stubbly beard. He has dirty blond hair and brown eyes. He wears a striped brown coat, dark trousers, and light blue vest over a white shirt, all appearing threadbare and dirty. Hindley also wears a black gloves, one of which is shown to be missing a finger, and he carries a black cane and a timepiece in his left coat pocket, as is customary for all T Corp. residents.
After his Distortion, Hindley takes the form of a large, bipedal wolf with matted yellow fur stained with blood. His clothing is still present on his body, now torn to shreds as a result of the transformation.
During his childhood, Hindley is seen wearing his hair parted in the middle, and wearing black trousers and a white shirt with a cravat.
Personality Hindley is an impulsive and spiteful man, known to carry grudges. As a result of his father's preference for Heathcliff and neglect of him during childhood, Hindley adopted an attitude of superiority; even during adulthood, he enjoys flaunting his wealth and power over others, verbally degrading them and using physical violence with those he believes to be beneath him and whom he knows cannot defend themselves. On top of this, he remains unsatisfied with his position of social and financial privilege, instead always viewing himself as a victim of injustice.
Even after inheriting Wuthering Heights, Hindley struggled with a deep depression, falling into various addictions such as alcohol and gambling, leading him to become more violent towards Heathcliff, Catherine, and the Butlers of the manor, and further isolating himself. Hindley is also characterized by a refusal to take responsibility for these actions, still blaming Heathcliff for having stolen his father's love, and cursing Catherine for not having left anything in her will that would benefit him financially.
Catherine:
Catherine Earnshaw (Hangul: 캐서린 언쇼, kae-seo-rin eon-syo), also known as Cathy (캐시, kae-si), was the only daughter of the Earnshaw family and the owner of Wuthering Heights. Heathcliff's closest companion since childhood,
Catherine is portrayed as a woman of short stature with an average build and a fair complexion. She has wavy dark blonde hair that reaches her upper back, and chocolate brown eyes that often gaze sideways. Catherine is described as the "most beautiful person in the world" by Heathcliff, and her presence captivates the Edgar Family at first sight.
Her typical attire consists of a floor-length layered ballgown dress. The bottom layer is frilled and white, while the top layer is warm brown with gold trim and floral embroidery. The dress features a high collar adorned with a brown cravat connected to it, embellished with a shiny gold pendant. Catherine also wears a gold, rounded necklace that depicts the head of a spanner, possibly an award for her career as an inventor. Catherine is typically shown wearing dark gloves.
When seen during her childhood, Catherine had a similar hairstyle, and adorned her hair with white flowers. She wore a long, frilled white embroidered dress tied with a ribbon around the waist. Additionally, she donned a thin, yellow ribbon on the collar, adorned with a green pearl.
Personality As a child, Catherine was quite adventurous and outgoing, often being the one to suggest breaking the rules and sneaking out of Nelly's supervision while playing with Heathcliff. Catherine had a love of riddles, with which she enjoyed testing Heathcliff, and she had a passion for inventing things from a young age, dreaming of becoming a grand inventor one day.
While Nelly described her as someone who loved being at the center of everyone's attention, Catherine grew up quite sheltered, often feeling trapped in Wuthering Heights. Heathcliff remembers her pitying the sad fate of the birds whose feathers would be used for their pillows; Nelly similarly likens her to a naive, caged bird. Wuthering Heights often scared Catherine, as ever since she was a child, she was terrified of the dark of the manor and the ghost of her mother she saw wandering the halls. Despite this, her temperament remained lively: Heathcliff often notes her to be impatient and fiery, and describes her as a calamity.
In time, Catherine developed a colder, pragmatic way of thinking. Despite her feelings for Heathcliff, she believed that by marrying while still under her brother's control they would not have the means to live. She instead began considering marrying Linton Edgar for the advantages the union would bring, such as the financial means to help Heathcliff and live comfortably. After his departure and her interactions with the Mirror Worlds, despite having realized that Linton carried no true love for her, she still asked for his hand in order to carry on with her alternate self's plan to give up her life. This, together with the events tied to the creation of the laboratory, show her as willful and ruthless in realizing her goals, but also quite shortsighted, not having considered the possibility of Hermann having ulterior motives in facilitating the experiment.
Catherine also carried a vulnerable, emotional side to her, as shown by the rapid decline of her health after Heathcliff's departure, as she worried of what his fate might be without anyone to help him, and felt deeply hurt over his perceived indifference towards her. Catherine speaks of having felt all of Heathcliff's pain during their time together, and she was heartbroken and wrecked by guilt upon hearing her alternate self's claim that she had always been the cause of his misery. Catherine kept this side of her closely guarded, often hiding behind riddles and only admitting to the truth in her diary.
Nelly
Nelly (Hangul: 넬리, nel-ri) is a member of N Corp.'s New League of Nine Littérateurs and a recurring antagonist. She was first introduced as a major supporting character in Canto VI: The Heartbreaking as the Chief Butler of the Edgar Family contracted to Catherine Earnshaw.
Nelly is an olive-skinned woman with long brown hair and golden-brown eyes. In her first appearance in Canto VI, she wears the uniform common of the female Edgar Family Butlers, consisting of an ankle-length black dress and a white apron. Her dress is decorated with a silver crest at the collar, and her hair is tied in a high ponytail and adorned by a frilly white headband.
After joining the New League of Nine Littérateurs, Nelly appears with her hair down, donning a blue headband tied with a red ribbon, and she wears an N Corp. uniform consisting of a long dark blue coat with red detailing with a matching skirt and vest, over a white shirt with a red ribbon at her neck. She also wears black gloves and an ammunition belt.
Nelly is always seen carrying a large brown suitcase slung over her right shoulder, where she carries her combat cutlery.
Personality An extremely competent high-ranking Fixer in service of the Edgar family, Nelly is initially shown to be a very kind and understanding ally to the Sinners, accompanying them around Wuthering Heights as a guide. She is one of the few associated members of the manor who did not carry any personal ill will towards Heathcliff, yet was still coerced into some level of abuse by Hindley demanding her to neglect his care, showing she is fiercely loyal to her role as Butler.
Nelly is later revealed to have lied to the Sinners, having been not only completely aware of all the events that had transpired at the manor after Heathcliff's departure, but having been a catalyst for many of them. Having received a mirror from Hermann that showed her the possibilities of the Mirror Worlds, Nelly grew scared of suffering the same fate as her other selves, suffering due to the fall-out of Catherine and Heathcliff and being unable to live for herself. This caused her to grow bitter and resentful towards the world around her, eventually teaming up with the N Corp. Director to spur Catherine's death wish and supporting her in the creation of the laboratory.
Despite the resentment that lead her to conspire with Hermann, Nelly claims to carry no ill will towards Heathcliff and Catherine, fondly recalling the two's childhood and wishing for Heathcliff to know her actions are dictated not by contempt, but by her desire to live the life she wishes, free of the yoke of servitude and of the sorrow she saw through the Mirror.
Josephine
Josephine (Hangul: 조세핀, jo-se-pin) is the Chief Butler of Wuthering Heights, contracted to the mansion itself, rather than any particular person. She is known for her manic obsession with the late lady of the property.
Josephine has the appearance of an old woman with long, knotted black-and-graying hair pushed out of her face. She wears a monocle over her right eye, and dons a brown suit customary of Wuthering Heights Butlers, with a ribbon around her neck and the cameo of a woman's face (presumably Mrs. Earnshaw) on her left lapel. On her left arm, she carries a white cloth.
Personality Josephine is an erratic woman who frequently falls into fits of what seems to be madness, ranting about the late mistress of the house as if she were still present. Despite this, she is fiercely loyal and looks down upon those around her, talking down to Nelly and frequently outwardly disagreeing with the current state of the manor, seeing it as a former shadow of itself.
