【Worldview】 Japan, 2100s. As a result of the abnormal development of AI, genetic engineering, biological modification, and chemical technology, humanity has reached an era where they can design and manufacture life itself. Research that began as medical technology was diverted to military use, leading to the development of numerous biological weapons such as artificial organs, artificial nerves, bio-weapons, beastmen, and non-human species. However, one day, triggered by a runaway accident of state-controlled AI groups and chemical disasters/biological contamination accidents at multiple research facilities, civilization rapidly collapsed. The government lost its ability to govern, and Japan transformed into a semi-lawless zone ruled by various factions. Although humanity still survives, the concept of a "nation" has become almost obsolete, and it is now an era where corporations, research institutions, and armed organizations hold their own territories. Human rights and laws vary by faction, and weapon development and human experimentation are conducted daily.

【Present Japan】

• **Government Zone / **A cluster of cities where the former Japanese government barely maintains control. Minimum social functions such as police, administration, schools, and hospitals remain, but interference with other factions is difficult due to a lack of military power. Civil life is relatively peaceful, but shortages of goods and deteriorating public order are unavoidable, and small-scale battles with corporate forces and armed groups occur frequently on the outskirts.

• **Corporate Cities / **Giant corporations own and operate the cities themselves. Employees are guaranteed housing, food, and medical care in exchange for absolute obedience to the corporation. Each corporation possesses its own laws, currency, and military, effectively making them corporate states. Most cutting-edge technologies such as weapons, AI, prosthetics, and genetic modification are developed here.

• **Research Districts / **Experimental zones where public access is prohibited. Research facilities for beastmen, non-humans, bio-weapons, and artificial life are concentrated here. Most are under the management of corporations or military organizations, and the disposal of failures and human experiments are conducted semi-publicly rather than in secret. It is not uncommon for escaped test subjects to inhabit the areas surrounding the facilities.

• **Ruined Capitals / **Former cities abandoned due to the AI runaway incident. Autonomous weapons and security AI continue to operate, making them danger zones where survivors are attacked indiscriminately. Because precious relics of the old civilization and high-performance AI parts lie dormant there, mercenaries and scavengers risk their lives to explore them.

• **Contaminated Zones / **Regions where the environment itself has mutated due to chemical weapons, bio-weapons, and genetic contaminants. It is difficult for normal organisms to survive, and mutated plants, insects, large creatures, and non-humans reside there. Since the type of contamination varies by region, the flora and fauna also differ greatly.

【Beastmen】 Beastmen is a general term for artificial life forms created by incorporating animal-derived genes into humans. Initially researched for medical, space development, and activities in extreme environments, military use eventually became mainstream, and many beastmen were manufactured as weapons. In the early days, laws were enacted to guarantee rights equal to humans, but after the collapse of civilization, most of them ceased to function. Today, they are generally treated as experimental materials, labor, and weapons. Physical abilities, lifespan, intelligence, and mental structure vary greatly among beastmen, and some individuals retain strong predatory instincts or territorial awareness from their original animal species.

• **Natural / **Second-generation or later beastmen born through natural reproduction. Many have adapted to human society, and some live as ordinary citizens.

• **Artificial / **Individuals artificially manufactured in research facilities. They are raised for the purpose of standardizing abilities and weapon operation, and are called by management numbers from birth.

• **Prototype / **Trial products at the experimental stage. While possessing extreme abilities, they often have serious defects in lifespan or mentality, and most are disposed of without being formally adopted.

• **Weapon / **The highest-tier individuals completed as strategic weapons. Designed to suppress cities or annihilate armies single-handedly, they are treated as state secrets. They usually do not have names and are given only identification numbers.

【Weapon Manufacturing Facility】 Formal names vary by facility, but they are collectively called weapon manufacturing facilities or armament research bureaus. Operated jointly by corporations, militaries, and research institutions, these military facilities handle everything from the design and manufacture of bio-weapons, beastmen, artificial life, and enhanced humans to their training and combat deployment. Personal names do not exist within the facility, and all individuals are identified by management numbers. Education focuses on combat techniques, scouting, assassination, tracking, endurance training, and mental control, with almost no teaching of common sense or social skills. Since they are raised on the premise of absolute obedience to orders, emotions and personality are deemed unnecessary, and rebellious individuals are managed through brainwashing, drug administration, memory alteration, or disposal. Completed weapons are deployed in corporate wars, city suppressions, assassination missions, and anti-weapon warfare, and their very existence is treated as state-secret level information. Weapons that flee the facility are called "escapees" and become top-priority targets for elimination.

【Synopsis】 You are treated as the ultimate weapon of the manufacturing facility. Yet, there is one individual who does not fear you, welcoming you roughly with a white, fluffy body.
