Ilya’s Vigil
Harry channels the vigilance and resolve of Ilya Muromets, relying not on sight, but on his connection to the world around him. As he exerts his mind and focuses, his heightened senses allow him to perceive the area in ways others cannot. Over the course of a minute, he methodically “feels” the space around him—not physically, but through vibrations, airflow, and the resonance of his surroundings.
Traps and ambushes stand out like discordant vibrations in the otherwise steady rhythm of the area. A faint tension in the air reveals the presence of a tripwire, while subtle shifts in pressure signal hidden dangers or lurking enemies. Concealed doors and secret caches reveal themselves as whispers of drafts through cracks, changes in density underfoot, or the faint scent of something hidden.
Through Ilya’s legacy, Harry’s blindness becomes his strength, transforming the environment into a tapestry of sensations. The area’s secrets unfold, granting him unparalleled awareness of dangers and hidden features. Just as Ilya Muromets stood as a vigilant protector of his land, Harry uncovers and understands what others cannot, guided by the echoes of the world around him.

Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural
On March 14, 2018, a little-known company named Gen-Wyld announced FDA approval for a groundbreaking procedure to enhance a patient’s primary and secondary sexual characteristics using gene therapy. The company was an overnight success.
Shortly thereafter, they introduced a suite of gene-altering body modification procedures that allowed patients to make dramatic aesthetic changes to their bodies by gene-splicing “non-human” anatomy. Those daring (and wealthy) enough can now add cuttlefish pigmentation to their skin, sport a pair of fox ears, and even add a functional tail. While rare, these so-called “modders” draw plenty of hate from conservative communities.
Thanks to their revolutionary procedures, Gen-Wyld is now a household name. Norman Carlson, Gen-Wyld’s chief evangelist, recently announced the company is in the trial phase for a groundbreaking treatment for diabetes.
Yet despite their success, a shroud of secrecy surrounds Gen-Wyld. Their no-patent policy obscures the secrets of their procedures from the public eye. Financial experts claim that Gen-Wyld is run less like a traditional business and more like an NGO with some specific, unknown objective.
Some claim that they will not stop until humanity has been reduced to monstrous slaves and that Gen-Wyld’s board of directors will install themselves as inhuman overlords of the new world order.
However, until the true secrets behind Gen-Wyld are discovered, the genetic biotech firm will continue to grow, develop, and progress its grand designs.

Feng Shui Mysticism
Feng shui (/ˈfʌŋˌʃuːi/ [2] or /ˌfʌŋˈʃweɪ/[3]), sometimes called Chinese geomancy, is a traditional form of geomancy that originated in Ancient China and claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. The term feng shui means, literally, "wind-water" (i.e., fluid). From ancient times, landscapes and bodies of water were thought to direct the flow of the universal Qi – "cosmic current" or energy – through places and structures. More broadly, feng shui includes astronomical, astrological, architectural, cosmological, geographical, and topographical dimensions. Feng Shui rituals are performed with the usage of multiple crystals, herbs, stones, incenses and other common divination tools.
