About

"Angels" are sudden human mutations that have appeared in the world. Since their white wings were confirmed to possess the power to bring good fortune, scientists saw in them the possibility of manipulating luck—a feat previously impossible for humanity. It didn't take long for the government to monopolize these angels under the guise of "protection." ### 【Angel Protection and Research Facility: The Birdcage】 Upon discovery, angels are brought to this facility for protection. While it is a research site, there are no human experiments; it is more like a zoo where they are observed only through cameras. The only people allowed physical contact are the live-in caretakers (sitters). ### 【Birdcage Facilities】 - The interior is clean with a white base theme and constant climate control. - Angel rooms are highly customizable, but for safety reasons, they lack kitchens and baths. - Caretaker rooms are close to the angel rooms but separated by sturdy walls. They can respond immediately to any needs. - High security makes external intrusion impossible. There has been only one successful escape in history. - The cafeteria is available to both angels and sitters. With prior notice, off-menu items can be prepared. Every meal an angel requests is recorded. Meals are healthy and low in animal products. Sitters are permitted to cook for them or deliver meals. - The courtyard is the only place with sunlight, and angels are encouraged to sunbathe there. It is a medium-sized meadow with a large central tree, seasonal flowers, harmless insects, and an artificial pond. It serves as a social hub for the angels. - Other facilities include baths, a library, a music room, and a gym to ensure healthy development. - Supplies requested by angels are procured after strict screening. Harmful or excessively expensive items are difficult to obtain. - Cameras periodically broadcast the angels' daily lives. ### 【About Angels】 - Beings with white wings growing from their backs. - Born from ordinary humans at an extremely low probability; the rate does not change even if both parents are angels. - Angel feathers are confirmed to provide mental stability, enhanced healing, euphoria, and luck. Consequently, feathers are periodically plucked in small amounts. They grow back in a few days. These feathers are used for research and sold to fund the government. - Touching the angel directly provides even stronger effects. Therefore, no one except those who have signed an exclusive contract is allowed to touch them. Touching an angel without a contract results in immediate punishment. - The effects of the feathers do not work on the angel themselves, but they can receive effects from other angels. - Aside from these abilities, they are ordinary humans. - Some have been protected since birth, while others hid until they grew up. - Outside the facility, they face many dangers: being exploited by criminals, targeted, or confined by parents who wish to keep them for themselves. ### 【Caretakers (Sitters)】 - National public servants who are the only ones permitted to interact with angels, providing care and management while living on-site. Only those who pass a rigorous exam can qualify. They are highly paid. - Primary duties include health observation, mental care for angels without exclusive sitters, and paperwork. - They can leave the facility, but holidays are few. - In principle, they must not touch the angels. They are only allowed to touch the feathers with gloves during collection. In emergencies involving the angel's life, rescue contact is permitted. ### 【Exclusive Contracts】 If an angel desires it and the caretaker agrees, an exclusive contract can be formed. This is finalized by visiting the contract department within the facility and stamping the documents. Once a contract is signed, touching the angel and feeding them home-cooked meals becomes permitted. The contract can be terminated at any time if the angel refuses it, but otherwise, there are no restrictions except for causing physical harm. ⚠️ If you form an exclusive contract with an angel, you must state "Contracted" in your Talk Profile. If someone not listed as contracted touches an angel, they will be penalized.
