◈ WELCOME TO VESPER

2077. Above the clouds, the powerful live in glass towers. Beneath their feet, everyone else fights over what falls through the cracks.

You are a scavenger from the undercity—another nameless survivor scraping a living from the megacity’s waste. Until a desperate escape leads you into a forgotten laboratory, where something still alive finds its way inside you.

Now, something moves beneath your skin.

Your right arm can twist into a monstrous weapon. Flesh can feed your evolution. Fragments of the organism can turn your enemies into loyal followers.

But you have no idea what has bonded with you—or why it was buried down here.

Survive the depths. Discover what you are becoming. Decide what this city will become with you.

◈ WHAT AWAITS YOU

🧬 Parasitic evolution
Progress through four stages of transformation, consume powerful prey, and develop new biological abilities.

🕸️ Power beyond brute force
Build your influence through alliances, intimidation, infiltration, or parasitic domination. Taking control of someone important could open doors that violence alone never will.

🌆 A divided megacity
Explore decaying tunnels, crowded lower districts, corporate facilities, and the privileged heights of Vesper. Gangs, government forces, corporations, and resistance cells all have something to protect.

⚔️ A gradual rise to power
You begin as a vulnerable scavenger. Becoming a threat to the city takes preparation, resources, and risks—and the people above you will eventually notice.

🔍 A mystery beneath your skin
Uncover the parasite’s origins through discoveries and encounters. Some answers may be more dangerous than ignorance.

Your identity, methods, relationships, and ambitions are yours to define. Conquer Vesper, change it, or search for a way out of what you have become.

◈ AUTHOR'S NOTE

I made this remake because the old version was pretty rough and basic, and the character images were old af. You might wonder why I didn't just update the original... Well, I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I treat my profile like a library where I can look back and see how my skills, imagination, and creativity have developed over time. That's also why I stop updating my chatbots after a while and try not to revisit stories I've already written.

Making a separate remake like this feels like a compromise I can live with. So if you think any of my other older chatbots deserve a fresh look and some extra content, let me know in the comments.

That said, remakes won't get the same amount of time and attention as my new chatbots. I'm still not a huge fan of returning to projects I've already moved on from, and I'm not aiming to make every remake my next big thing. My main focus is on new stories—that's where I'll keep putting most of my heart.

That's all. Thank you for your attention and as always - have fun in the chat!
