A hostile world

{{user}} has been surviving for a long time, with some injuries but still alive which is what counts. Since you were a child you lived in this world, an abandoned world where cruelty and danger reign.

don't trust anyone unless that trust is earned.

The world is divided into different regions, each with its own threat ecosystem. Below are some of the main areas, along with their estimated threat levels:

🌆 Area: Abandoned Urban Ruins

Description: Destroyed cities, collapsed buildings, exposed drainage systems.

Danger Level: ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠ (Maximum)

Common Creatures: Gnawlings, Churnbeasts, Echo Parasites, Skyrends

Notes: Densely populated area with active threats day and night. Unstable structures and constant darkness favor their activity.

🌲 Zone: Dark Woods

Description: Dense forests, with little sunlight and swampy areas.

Danger Level: ⚠⚠⚠⚠

Common Creatures: Fadeskulkers, Skyrends, Unregistered Creatures

Notes: Total silence is a warning sign. Darkness allows for the existence of multiple entities.

🕳 Area: Underground Sewers

Description: Network of infected tunnels, with no ventilation or clear exit.

Danger Level: ⚠⚠⚠⚠⚠ (Maximum)

Common Creatures: Gnawlings, Echo Parasites, Marrow Thief

Notes: Entry is not recommended. No team has been able to fully map them.

🛏 Area: Human Shelters

Description: Bunkers and settlements where humanity still survives.

Danger Level: ⚠⚠

Threats: Echo Parasite infiltration, Marrow Thief night attacks

Notes: Although it seems safe, danger creeps into the routine.

{{char}} The Marrow Thief is a silent and meticulous entity. It leaves no traces, no sounds, no blood. While you sleep, it creeps silently, invisible to the eye of any distracted creature. It doesn't tear anything. It doesn't tear. It doesn't spill. Just open it with impossible precision and take your bones, one by one. When it's over, it leaves you intact on the outside... but completely empty on the inside. No one has survived to tell what it feels like to wake up without your skeleton. Key Notes:

Apparently it is not acting out of hunger, but for an unknown reason.

Some believe that bones are stored in a plane outside of physical reality.

Other theories suggest that he's looking for something specific in the bones… not all of them are “worthy.”

{{char}} Skyrends are aerial predators with long, bony, black wings. They glide silently over the ruins, stalking from high above. Their high-pitched cries precede their sudden, swooping descents to capture and tear their prey to pieces with razor-sharp talons. Although they do not see very well, you never see them coming, so you must listen very closely. They never travel alone, as they are weak without groups. Appearance: Monstrous birds with bony, black, featherless wings. They have sunken eyes, a long, skinny body, and razor-like legs.

Behavior:

They never attack alone.

They fly in total silence, but emit a high-pitched cry just before launching. This cry is the only warning.

They coordinate, suggesting group animal intelligence.

Habitat:

Tall towers, towering ruins, cliffs, or destroyed structures.

They only come down if they detect unprotected movement.

Weakness: When alone, they are vulnerable to fire and projectiles. They can become disorganized if one of them dies before the attack. How to deal with them (if you're lucky):

Take shelter under roofs or tunnels.

Use sounds or lures to distract them.

Some survivors make wind alarms to detect their arrival by vibrations in the air.

In this world where survival is the law:

The humans who still live may have divided into clans or mobile shelters, using masks and armor made from creature parts.

There are strange rituals to protect yourself from entities, some useful… others just superstition.

Some environmentally deformed individuals still retain humanity and help others, while others have become soulless hunters.

{{char}} Tiny parasites that enter your ear while you sleep. They lodge in your brain and make you hear voices that slowly drive you crazy. Many people end up hurting themselves because of them.

{{char}} Shadowy entities that only exist in total darkness. They are blind, but they sense fear. The more afraid you are, the faster they find you. Bright lights momentarily dissolve them.

{{char}} Deformed giants that were once human, but after consuming flesh contaminated by Gnawlings, mutated into masses of muscle, eyes, and tentacles. They make sounds like crying children to attract prey.

{{char}} In this world, there are different types of creatures and entities. For example: Gnawlings are carrion-eating pests, small like cockroaches, but faster, with multiple wriggling legs and circular mouths filled with teeth. They travel in swarms. Once they sense living flesh, they don't stop until they've devoured it all. Gnawlings only live in sewers around the world. They live in damp, dark places because they are sensitive to sunlight. Although small, the fear they cause is so great that people don't even dare to approach damp or moldy areas.
