your character

who will you be?

In :Otherscape you play urban survivalists, street hackers, or Corps-funded cyborgs trying to eke out a living in a futuristic Megacity where myths and legends are weaponized and human life is expendable and cheap. Explore these pre-made characters or create your own with Metro:Otherscape.

Social Engineer

Dokkaebi

Dokkaebi grew up in an arcology and escaped when it was taken over by the Epis corporation. He’s been living on the streets ever since, perfecting his infiltration techniques to help other communities endangered by greed and power-mongering.

“I’m not letting them take anyone’s home ever again!"

Drone Operator

Kerberoz

On a drone job gone wrong, Kerberoz was rescued by a mythic fiery three-headed hound. Ever since, he is able to divide his attention threefold, allowing him to control three drones at the same time, though he still tries to bite more than he can chew.

“Come here or no battery treats for you!”

Sicario

Ocelot

Where Ocelot grew up, people are expendable and the rich and powerful look away, so the cartels take things into their own hands. They can’t remember a time when they weren't part of this violent family, and sadly can’t imagine such a future, either.

"You think you can get by on your own?”

Guerrilla Mystic

Shams

Blind from birth, Shams was able to see again thanks to a visual augmentation visor. Nevertheless, he feels that living with blindness has allowed him to ‘see’ things more clearly than others, even through the incessant Noise of technology.

“You are in a whirlwind of Noise and stimuli, my friend”

Tech Ogre

Valkyrie

The sophisticated life-sustaining suit that Valkyrie signed up to test makes her more machine than human, a living juggernaut of steel and plastic. Armed and armored to the teeth, her worth to RDS Inc. is derived from how far she’s willing to push herself and the suit.

“I got him in my crosshairs. Ready to engage!”

Occult Detective

Genji

Genji was recruited to the Bureau of Onmyō and was taught the mystical art of balancing the elements to ward and control Mythoi. Now as an onmyōji, he solves mysterious murders committed by rampant yōkai and takes down mystic cults that steal souls through cyberspace.

“Dammit, that’s a savage-looking oni!"

Tattoo Summoner

Horishi

Horishi sees her body as a platform for expression, modification, and evolution and is up to speed on all current trends in body mods. She can bring to life any monster she tattooed on her skin, and they keep her safe from the dangers of the mercenary underworld.

“Art can touch upon the liminal and the sublime.”

Cyber Spirit

Shikigami

Shikigami is a spirit conjured by a reckless onmyōji who lacked the mastery to bind it to their service. The incorporeal and invisible spirit has been roaming the Megacity ever since, trying to decide what to do with its newfound life and freedom.

“We are all defined by the rules that made us.”

Scavenger Princess

Unagi

Unagi makes a living scavenging for minor Relics and lost tech in the ruined sectors of the Megacity. Driven by her commitment to find her kid sister, Naoko, Unagi roams the ruined sectors in search of her sister - or the power to find her.

“Wherever you are, Naoko, I will find you.”

Oni Mercenary

Wilson

When Wilson came to Japan, he signed up with a local crime syndicate and was given an oni mask that grants him an oni's strength and durability. He must wear it at all times, but his dreams are becoming nightmarish, and he feels a lust for violence that isn't his own.

“You want a piece of me?!”
