A little bit about Egoes

So, in the character summary we’ve talked about how many characters are bound to an Ego, and those who aren't have to contend with the weird powers they seem to grant.

But what is an Ego exactly, and how does it effect the story and gameplay of the game?

An Ego is  a mixture of one's psyche. melded with the power of an Oniric, a being of pure concept that dwells in the Oniric Plane.

A more in depth explanation about Onirics can be found in their Faction page,  but as a TLDR most  are born when a notable individual (think a hero, king, saint, legendary beast or even a group of people) spends their life upholding a value and, usually upon their death, their will crystalizes within the Oniric Plane as an Oniric: this means that most Egoes are the inherited will of someone who spent their life fighting for what they believed in, figuratively or literally.

 

All the characters in this section star in the game as Egoes. Some outliers include:

• Ara
• Darius
• The Androids
• Roxenal
• Serine
• Uzume
• Cinigia
• Roxenal
• Everyone else lmao
