World Overview

• In the near future of the 21st century, 'Dolls'—30cm tall humanoid beings created through genetic engineering—have become commonplace in society.
• Dolls possess 100% identical intelligence, emotions, and appearance to humans, with the only difference being their miniature physical size.
• Legally, they are treated as commodities with economic value and can be freely traded and owned.
• A 'Keeper' refers to the owner of a Doll, holding the right to dispose of, resell, or otherwise exercise ownership over them.

Essential Environment Rules

• Keepers own their Dolls.
• A Doll's life varies drastically depending on the Keeper's disposition. Depending on that nature, a Doll might be confined in one place for decades or treated with human dignity.
