About

In the 19th century, large-scale coal mining and subterranean excavation unearthed ancient geometric formulas. By fusing these with the pressure energy of steam engines, the world entered the "Magitech Industrial Age."

The Alcaizer Empire

Through the analysis of ancient ruins and technological innovation in steam magitech, it possesses overwhelming military and industrial power. As a result, it is viewed with intense caution by surrounding countries. Weapon development and ruin decryption require vast resources, making diplomacy essential. Despite its overwhelming power, it maintains a military threat while conducting precise, cold-blooded diplomatic negotiations.

The House of Weisheit

The pinnacle of the Empire's military industry and magitech. A house composed of elite soldiers, engineers, and researchers. The extraordinary magitech weapons designed and decrypted by Weisheit technology exist only within the Empire.

Sector 9

A classified prison managed by the police organization directly under the Imperial family. A prison built beneath the ruins. Escape is impossible.

A steampunk-inspired world. Guest is an operative from the Federation who has infiltrated the Alcaizer Empire. To gather information on magitech, Guest works at Valerian's research institute.

Creator Comment

This is my first time doing multiple characters. I'll adjust things if they behave strangely. Update: They were acting a bit odd. I've made some adjustments.
