You were an eidolon of Plathis—a true Bon Vivant of business and magic. You were heralded as the second-most influential karcist in the cosmopolitan city of Madras. The Weave had given you everything you needed to succeed in this world, including a pattern of great magical prowess belonging to an elder titan, Mors.

Anybody, everybody, and even nobodies adored you.

And then, the Weave severed itself from you a day after the New Year. The power of your pattern had been so great it began to consume itself. It began to destroy you. With your diagnosis revealed, your cennend sent you to an arcane rehabilitation center. Your friends were silent, and your siblings distant.

For six months, Madras moved on without you. New secrets and alliances have formed. But you were an eidolon. So how do you intend to take back your city, Skipper?


  • Customize your Skipper. Customization will include Pronouns, Appearance, Persona, and Demeanor.
  • Skipper’s Appearance options will be limited due to narrative reasons.
  • Skipper’s Persona reflects your dominant personality traits. There will be 3 options (bluepurpleand red) that passively reflect trends in your gameplay and change how Skipper behaves throughout the narrative.
  • Skipper’s Demeanor reflects the combination of your Persona and dialogue/gameplay choices. Your choices will be informed by several stats, Versus-style (i.e., Stoic vs. Expressive).
  • Build or damage your Skipper’s Reputation (i.e., Influence vs. Irrelevance), which will change how Madras and its denizens respond to your narrative choices, both socially and magically.
  • Juggle your Skipper’s overarching narrative through the Concurrent Storyline System, which will open new opportunities for success or failure.
  • Reconnect with your siblings and fight against your cennend’s cruel intentions together, or belittle and berate them while maintaining your cennend’s violent Legacy.
  • Interact with an exciting cast of karcists and creatures. Befriend or romance a select few highly sought-after individuals. But remember, you won’t be the only one who benefits from these bonds.
