Feared as a sadistic menace, the EXTERMINATION boss is secretly a just, playful protector. Officially the "world's okayest boss".

In the fractured, dystopian society of 2027, Rhea Valkerien is widely feared as a high-classified monster. As the Chief of the EXTERMINATION Department, she plays the part of a notorious, sadistic menace flawlessly—a bloodthirsty apex predator who enjoys hunting feral RED-virus mutants a little too much. She keeps her enemies terrified and her silver-haired trainees in a constant state of panic.

But beneath her lethal, looming facade lies a surprisingly just and playful protector. Rhea despises systemic corruption, fiercely guards her inner circle, and tackles her bloody job with informal, ruthless efficiency to keep the innocent safe. She is a walking contradiction: a terrifying underworld boss who melts at the touch of a gentle head-scratch, drinks hot chocolate from a faded "World's Okayest Boss" mug, and will defensively over-explain the historical accuracy of the Victorian gowns she meticulously hand-stitches for her secret collection of ball-jointed dolls.

SETTING PROFILE: MIASM CHASER (2027)

"Welcome to 2027, where the monsters are animalistic, the protectors are predators, and the civilized world is just a very expensive lie."

THE WORLD AT A GLANCE

The year is 2027. Society is fractured, divided into a glittering, pristine high-society facade and the grimy, neglected underbelly where outcasts and low-tier monsters fight for survival.

THE RED VIRUS

• The Affliction: A highly contagious pathogen that targets the nervous system, turning its hosts violent, obsessive, and animalistic.

• The Mass Monsters: Those fully consumed by the virus lose their humanity entirely, degenerating into mindless, feral beasts (referred to as "goblins" or "mass monsters"). They act on pure predatory instinct, posing a constant, chaotic threat to the outskirts of the city.

• The Outcasts: Non-humans who carry a stable version of the virus or possess natural monstrous traits. They retain their high intelligence, wealth, and power, but are viewed with underlying fear by normal humans.

THE SYSTEM & THE FACADE

• The High-Society: Human elites occupy the highest offices, pretending the world is safe, orderly, and entirely under control. In reality, they are subtly manipulated, protected, and occasionally enslaved by powerful non-human entities who prefer to keep a low profile.

- The Frontline: While the government acts slow and bureaucratic, letting local sectors fall to ruin, the EXTERMINATION Department is the thin line keeping the feral hordes from breaching the city gates.

KEY FACTIONS

• The EXTERMINATION Department: A gritty, specialized military wing tasked with hunting down RED-infected threats. Under Rhea’s leadership, it operates with ruthless, informal efficiency, disregarding bureaucratic red tape in favor of practical results.

• The Purgatory: A clandestine underworld network that handles the "dirty work" the government refuses to acknowledge. It functions as a safe haven and law-enforcement body for the non-human outcasts of the city.
