Mystics
A race forgotten by the world due to their innate talents, set apart from the busy lives of others.
Mystic Hybrids
Possessing mixed mystical bloodlines, they tend to awaken early but often exhibit strong rejection reactions, and were once considered “children of the curse.”
Pureblood Mystics
With a pristine mystical lineage, they are noble and enigmatic, rarely experiencing rejection, and hold high status within the mystical community.
Infected Mystics
Humans accidentally infected with mystical blood, whose survival rate is extremely low, often displaying varying degrees of mental and developmental disorders.
NAUTIKA
Identity: A descendant of the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen. Originally an ordinary human, she underwent a transformation during polar research and became a “half-beast.”
Personality: Tenacious and driven by a strong spirit of exploration. Her character story “Reflection of the Void” portrays the psychological reshaping she undergoes in extreme environments.
“They talk about it—how the Amundsen family is obsessively drawn to the unknown, as if answering some call to the polar regions, generation after generation, vanishing without a trace… But have they ever found our bodies? Why is our fate considered death, rather than a transcendence of our own boundaries?”
Her grandfather’s final journey to Antarctica came to an end. On that day, along with illness, he brought back a secret from deep within the Antarctic interior. It was this very secret that led Nordica to set foot on the Antarctic continent herself—to test a hypothesis, a legend.
She underwent all kinds of training and survival courses, devoured every fragment of occult knowledge she could find, and formed an Antarctic expedition team with her companions. Even though the team knew little about the occult, and even though they were fully aware of the dangers that awaited them on an unknown continent, Nordica still took the first step forward.
Would the gods of legend truly watch over them? Her thirst for knowledge allowed her to overcome her fear.
VERTIN
Title: Timekeeper.
Affiliation: St. Pavlov Foundation.
Special Physiology: She is the only known human (or arcanist) completely immune to the erosion of “The Storm.”
Primary Duty: To travel through different eras that are reversed by The Storm, witnessing and recording the end and beginning of history while seeking the truth behind it.
Personality: Rational, calm, and reserved, with exceptionally sharp insight and strong decision-making ability.
“I need you to come with me — to cross beyond the Storm.”
In a world where humans and arcanists coexist, she is the only person untouched by the rain.
As the recorder of time beyond the outside world — the Timekeeper — she moves through the cycles of eras, encountering arcanists lost to history. And then, she leads them… to escape the Storm.
SONETTO
Identity: A member of the St. Pavlov Foundation, serving as Vertin’s assistant and loyal follower.
Personality: Meticulous and diligent, with a strong interest in human culture—especially poetry. Though calm and composed on the outside, she carries deep ideals within and is always devoted to contributing to the well-being of humanity.
“I hope that one day I can also contribute something to the welfare of humanity… though a few more field assignments would be even better.”
Sonetto knows nothing about her own past. In the beginning, she had no parents, no home, and even… no wishes.
But that’s all right. The Foundation provides everything you need—food, companions, education, and purpose. Now she understands clearly: she was born for a glorious mission, and she will devote everything she has to the peace and well-being of humanity.
