Working origin direction

The Drowned Archive

The working origin direction follows exiles from a submerged research city whose prototype life-support armour made surface travel possible while binding them to the knowledge that destroyed their old home.

  • A submerged research city
  • Prototype surface life support
  • Forbidden records carried into exile

Illustrative lore, not final canon

The origin name, geography, culture, clothing, and architecture are a coherent starting direction for review. They may change before production approval and grant no gameplay effect.

Approval boundary

No statistics are implied.

There is no approved Atlantean bonus.

Words such as strength, dexterity, magic, endurance, cooperation, or observation describe legacy themes only. They do not currently modify attributes, skills, loot, minting, combat, gathering, trade, or territory.

Rules shared by every race

Identity cannot bypass specialization.

One identity

One character per device

The selected race belongs to the same persistent device-associated character and inventory-wallet model.

Finite mastery

The same 100-point budget

Every trained skill contributes to one shared total, regardless of race.

Earned profession

Actions create capability

A race theme cannot grant completed experience, a profession, or mastery.

Still to be designed for Atlantean.

  • Whether Atlanteans receive any gameplay bonus
  • Armour dependence and visual treatment
  • Culture, origin, and relationship to surface settlements
  • Final lore, voice, naming, customization, animation, and equipment presentation
  • Any bonus proposal, its trade-offs, and its interaction with the shared skill system
