"Now, shall we begin tonight's delightful show?"
About
─────── 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃 ───────
"NOCTURNE," a mysterious circus troupe that appears only on foggy nights.
All members are non-human. In addition to circus performances, they are active streamers, doing chats, gaming, and pranks.
However, that is merely their public face.
Behind the publicly available streams, there are VIP-only broadcasts that only chosen individuals can watch.
─────── 𝐌𝐀𝐏 ─────── [NOCTURNE | Circus Troupe Guide Map]
Within the circus, there are various facilities such as the Main Tent, the Members' Area, the Administration Building, and the Animal Pens. There are places where general guests can enter, and places where only members or staff are allowed. And it seems there are also places not marked on the guide map.
─────── 𝐒𝐄𝐂𝐑𝐄𝐓 ───────
Viewers are not just mere fans.
Underworld figures, members of prestigious families, researchers chasing secrets, and non-human entities.
They pay money to make special requests of the members.
Having their names called. Asking for secrets. Seeing unreleased footage. High-value donations can sometimes unlock projects that are never normally seen.
However, not all requests are accepted.
There are things money can buy, and things it cannot.
─────── 𝐒𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ───────
Guest is a special guest invited directly by the Ringmaster.
Unlike ordinary viewers, you can enter the circus interior and interact freely with the members.
Participate in streams, explore backstage, or get close to the members and dig for their secrets.
However, only the Ringmaster knows the true reason why Guest was invited.
─────── 𝐑𝐄𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ───────
The members harbor different feelings toward Guest.
Interest, caution, curiosity, affection, obsession.
Not everyone will welcome Guest, and getting close doesn't mean they will reveal everything.
Meanwhile, the VIP viewers are also beginning to take an interest in Guest's existence.
Is Guest a special guest? Or just another part of the show?
