โ—Ÿ SUPPLEMENTING COMPENDIUM โ— โ†’ DEAD N30N
here you will find a composition of people + places you may see mentioned in future roleplay posts, should you interact with Nour or Solstice in a universe adjacent or pertaining to the world of dead n30n. ( or, if you so desire to, even decide to inject your own character into dead n30n's universe for an interesting twist! ) you are more than welcome to use this as a reference for any reason pertaining to roleplay, and questions are always welcomed.
๐’๐˜๐๐Ž๐๐’๐ˆ๐’: DEAD N30N takes place in a futuristic universe blending a unique mixture of my favourite aesthetics; cyberpunk, steampunk, and cosmic eldritch fantasy. utilizing heavy biblical analogies, as well as borrowing names & places found directly in the bible, DEAD N30N is a lovemail/hatemail of my own personal complication with religious upbringing and the associated trauma. DEAD N30N is also meant to systematically deconstruct gender & sexual norms, both of which are social constructions created by humans, and is absent of homophobia and transphobia. Solstice themselves is a strong example of the absence of a strict gender identity as a norm, and as you follow their life in the city of Hellix, you will explore their personal views of gender, sex, and sexual orientation through the eyes of a creature that was born in a place where none of those things exist. because as alluded to in the bible.... angels have no gender, genitals, or sexual identity :]

๐“๐‡๐„ ๐‚๐ˆ๐“๐˜ ๐Ž๐… ๐‡๐„๐‹๐‹๐ˆ๐—: This is the focal point for a majority of the novel's progression. While other cities and states exist outside of Hellix, the Earth is not the same as it once was; having suffered an apocalyptic destruction some hundreds of years prior to Hellix's formation. Humanity was not nearly wiped out, but it it definitely struggled for a while. Hellix is considered the 'Capitol' of the New Earth, as it's referred to, and the main hub for the majority of the rest of it's surrounding cities, states, and countries. Hellix consists primarily of dazzling, sprawling & impressive architecture reaching high toward the sky. It is a blend of metal and machinery, as much of mankind is now blended with machinery. AI is incredibly rampant throughout the city, and it's mandatory that every human being born is to be assigned one.
๐ˆ๐‚๐Ž๐๐ˆ๐”๐Œ: ( referring to the capitol city Iconium found in ancient Lycaonia mentioned in the bible, it was the destination for Paul and Barnabas as their first missionary journey ) Iconium is known as the largest manufacturer of AI & robotech in the entire New Earth. It is ran by a gentle-hearted billionaire named Jade Reyes and her equally kind wife Rose Reyes. Iconium's original conception was a dream from Jade for the hope that all humans could live comfortable, happy lives with the assistance of a personalized AI, that gathers data about you from the moment you're born, and grows and adapts alongside you as you grow and adapt. Iconium is constantly developing and upgrading it's technology with the hopes of making life as bearable and comfortable as possible for every human. Because of Iconium, homelessness and starvation are only a distant memory of the past.
๐†๐„๐๐„๐’๐ˆ๐’: ( the first; the beginning. also called 'The Book of Genesis' in the bible, detailing the beginning of time itself ) is actually the first planet in the entire universe that God created, and the home of the angels. It originally resided in the hidden-away star cluster of Lazarus, but later had to be relocated after an unexpected event took place. Genesis is also nicknamed heaven, because humans were unaware that the two are actually one in the same.
๐“๐‡๐„ ๐‹๐€๐™๐€๐‘๐”๐’ ๐‚๐Ž๐๐’๐“๐„๐‹๐‹๐€๐“๐ˆ๐Ž๐: ( referring to the brother of Martha and Mary who died in his sleep, and was later resurrected by Jesus as a testament to his miracles ) this is a small cluster of stars hidden beyond the pillars of creation that separates humanity from the divine. Herein lay the first home of the angels, before a tragedy ( an error on God's part ) caused the untimely destruction of the constellation, forcing God to relocate the planet. Genesis now resides in a new, unnamed star-cluster. Lazarus is now nicknamed NEON DEATH for it's stunning, neon-coloured wasteland of dead stars and broken planets. ( for a better visual, imagine the splasharts of the Empyrean skinline in league of legends. this is partially where i took inspiration ). Who destroyed the Lazarus Constellation and what triggered that event is a secret later revealed in the book :]
๐๐ˆ๐‹๐‹๐€๐‘๐’ ๐Ž๐… ๐‚๐‘๐„๐€๐“๐ˆ๐Ž๐: ( image here ) is the gate separating humanity from the divine. It is theorized that if one is able to successfully pass between the gates, they will be able to freely wander among the angels and the gods. However, heaven and divinity are nothing like how they're painted in the interpretation through human eyes, and those stupid enough to try and test those waters are quickly exposed to the true horrors beyond.
๐€๐‘๐†๐”๐ ๐Œ๐€๐‹๐“๐˜๐‘: the hard-headed, fight-loving angel personification of the planet of Genesis. Yes, you heard that right, Argun is literally Genesis in angelic form. It's still uncertain how the spirit of Genesis was able to be born as a half-human, half-angel, but God theorizes it may be because the planet is so well loved by the angels that it's beating heart became it's own spirit; and that spirit was birthed through a child. Argun is tied to Solstice ( Eden Cielo ) through the red string of fate. Their lives are forever meant to cross one another, and love is in their future. How that relationship develops, however, will be left to the progression of the story :]
๐‰๐”๐๐ˆ๐๐„๐‘ ๐‡๐€๐–๐“๐‡๐Ž๐‘๐๐„: A young, green-haired morally grey angel who was known as the top doctor in heaven. He was previously married to Argun Maltyr, before the two mutually agreed to split up and simply exist as friends. Something... unnatural lurks behind Juniper's unassuming composition, and his ambitions are a mystery even to his closest friend, Argun Maltyr. What destiny awaits him is decided in the journey he chooses to take alongside Argun in tracking down Solstice on planet Earth.
๐…๐€๐”๐’๐“๐”๐’ ๐‚๐€๐ƒ๐ˆ๐„๐”๐—: ( latin for lucky and wordplay on the life of someone who is very unlucky ) she is known as The Architect and responsible for the initial design behind much of Hellix's more modern technological look. She's also Iconium's top mechanic, and in charge of the latest & most innovative designs for every new AI they produce. She is the person who first discovers Eden as they descend into Earth, and decides to take care of them. She teaches them about humans & human life, how to act like a human and be human. She provides them with the necessary data they desire, and regularly works on keeping their physical body up to date and in working condition. The two of them do wind up falling in love and even getting married, but their future is a mystery only discovered in the book :] Faustus as a person and her lifestyle are also a mystery
๐“๐‡๐„ ๐†๐Ž๐‹๐ƒ ๐‚๐Ž๐”๐‘๐“: a place in heaven where angels who commit sins against God's design are tried and convicted for their crimes. This was originally Eden's first job, but was later passed down onto an angel named Remus, who admired Solstice and longed to be like them. Because God himself was incapable of keeping up on all his creations ( being an all-loving omnipotent presence that existed literally EVERYWHERE ) he had to design a place -- and a person, that could handle these things in his stead. This is how The Gold Court came to be, and how Solstice's first job was assigned to them.
๐“๐‡๐„ ๐†๐€๐‘๐ƒ๐„๐ ๐Ž๐… ๐„๐ƒ๐„๐: this is the capitol city of the planet Genesis, and Eden/Solstice's birthplace. The Garden of Eden is often referred to as the place where mankind's first sin took place ( Eve eating from the apple tree ) but it is also known as the place where an angel's first sin took place. That angel in question was none other than Lucifer himself. Because of Lucifer's desire for power, his corruption of humans caused the Garden of Eden to be a center point for both human & angelic sin alike.
๐’๐€๐๐€ ๐Ž๐‘๐„๐: The infamous angel assigned as Eden/Solstice's guardian in heaven, and who later followed them down onto earth where they were separated for a time. He was one of God's top commanders in the angelic army, and later became a data pirate on earth, dealing in the well-kept secrets of the most corrupt politicians & billionaires on earth. Through his work he was able to expose and condemn a number of awful, evil people still living comfortable lives they didn't deserve on Earth, all the while keeping a watchful, silent eye on Eden from afar. He is the guardian first and foremost, and takes that job very seriously. On earth he later falls in love with a human named Emiko and they marry, having a child by the name of Eamon later on. Emiko, Eamon and Sana are like an adoptive family to Eden.
๐†๐Ž๐ƒ: finally we get on the last important character you'll often see mentioned in the book; God himself. Just who is he? We don't actually know; but we do know that the bible-to-human interpretation of him is very wrong. God is both man and woman, and nothing at all. He is love and hate, happiness and despair. She is kind and strict, cautious and reckless. Curious and arrogant. God is everything... all things. She has no body, no corporeal form, and not even Eden or Nour know what God actually looks like. What we do know is God has a plan, a purpose for the universe, and hides their true intentions within a secret coding they've buried deep inside Solstice.

How would you describe the body types of the RO's?
'Cause I get several ideas of my own.
Ash: Solid. Wide shoulders, strong arms. They'd have put in the work for a build that's more function over form, yet retains the curves that draws people's attention. Really, put them in a tanktop and passers-by are going to have neck problems from the double takes they do.
Rin: Svelte. Shortest of the bunch, could pull a Marilyn Monroe and wear a potato sack and make it look stunning. A slight build without clear muscle definition. Maybe most visible if they dance or do high-level yoga.
Santana: "Average" if thin leaning. They're overworked, overstressed and overcaffeinated. Whilst they might not necessarily look unhealthy, a good meal more regularly would work miracles.
Skylar: Pick basically any comicbook superhero character from DC or Marvel of the lean and defined variety and you'll have a decent approximation of how they look. Maybe how most Spider-Folk look or if you average'd the Bat-family.
Anything on or off the mark? Maybe got any references of your own?
Love the story, btw. Hope to see more soon, the barfight was a hoot-and-a-half.
You're not that far off actually ๐Ÿค” I'm not really the best in describing body types, but I'll try my best ๐Ÿ˜…
Ash
I like to imagine Ash body built like an MMA fighter, lean and athletic and not too overtly muscular like a bodybuilder. Their muscles are built for practical uses, not to show off.
Rin
You're pretty spot on for Rin. They are slender and elegant/graceful and don't really have clear muscle definition. The prime example of prioritizing their mind and charisma over physical stuff and combat. But yeah, they'd slay anything they wear, undoubtedly.
Santana
To me, Santana is just average overall. Not too slender, but not to the point of skinny where they don't really have muscles. They do have some muscles to a degree (they are a cop after all, and had to pass like police academy beforehand), but certainly not like Ash and Skyar. They don't really go to gym nor do they spar to maintain them. They're also not too plump or chubby as well, because of their less than ideal lifestyle. They're just... average.
Skylar
Picture a fitness model, that's pretty much how Skylar's build (but not the really muscular ones mind you ๐Ÿ˜‚). They are still lean and athletic, but unlike Ash, their muscles are definitely more... defined? Like, Male Skylar definitely has pretty well-defined six-packs and pecs.
They do workout in the Agency's gym regularly and supplemented with some sparring with other superheroes for more practical training. As a superhero, they gotta appeal to the masses while also still be able to hold themself in a fight.
