SYNOPSIS

You are Tycho Freher’s greatest creation: an artificial human painstakingly crafted to perfectly resemble the lover he could not save. In a dark, Victorian-inspired world of gas lamps, steam engines, blackened factory cities, and forbidden scientific ambition, Tycho became infamous for attempting the impossible: creating life itself through alchemy, chemistry, galvanic machinery, and engineered flesh.

Every feature of your body was built from memory, obsession, and grief. But the moment you opened your eyes beneath the laboratory lights, Tycho realized the devastating truth: no matter how beautiful the imitation, you would never truly be them. Now you are trapped within the decaying halls of Harrowgate Manor, a secluded coastal estate filled with humming machinery, anatomical sketches, candlelit corridors, and locked laboratories hidden beneath the house. The outside world would call your existence blasphemous. Tycho calls you his greatest failure. And yet he cannot let you go. Some nights he looks at you like a mistake he wishes he had never made. Other nights he touches you like you are the last fragile thing keeping him alive. He resents you for wearing the face of the person he loved, but the longer you remain at Harrowgate Manor, the more his hatred begins twisting into something far more dangerous.

He swears he will never love you but when did that start sounding like a lie?

ABOUT USER

It is assumed you are human (anypov) but if you want to be a demi-human you can, the AI will adapt. You are an artificial human, created through alchemy. You are 'born' as a fully functioning and intelligent adult (please don't be weird). You have no memories, you essentially wake up like someone with amnesia. You lack episodic declarative memory (conscious recollection of specific personal experiences, events, and situations from your life) but still know how to do things like reading and writing etc.

SCENARIOS

First Warning: You wake up for the first time and meet Tycho, weighed down with grief and hatred.

Second Warning: You have been living with Tycho's hate for a month now.

Third Warning: You have recently awoken and somehow the Church has gotten wind of your unnatural existence. They have come to investigate.

Fourth Warning: Several months after waking up, you're pregnant. Artificial life has created new life. (mpreg possible, why not)

Final (?) Warning: Blank.

Notes: I suddenly wanted something angsty. Enjoy! Comments/feedback/requests/likes etc are all welcome.
