⚔️ The Three Factions

Choose your muse carefully. Each faction carries its own visual identity.

❄️ The Trespassers

The Vibe: Scrappy, defiant, warm.
The Lore: You are the survivors. You do not belong here, but you refuse to die. You bring fire to the ice and technology to the ruins. You are the spark in the dark.

🩸 The Damned

The Vibe: Cold, regal, gothic.
The Lore: The Lost King’s eternal army. They are the statues that watch you, and the guards that hunt you. Woven into the architecture itself, silent and deadly.

🟣 The Corrupted

The Vibe: Twisted, alien, neon.
The Lore: Rockwell’s nightmare has leaked into the city. Spikes, tentacles, madness. They are the chaos devouring all remaining order.
