SECRET
???
In a corner of the market, a familiar sweet scent of candied hawthorn...
It is said that in a certain corner of South Street,
a young artist
is engrossed in sketching—

You might just
brush past the author of that painting
on the street.
THREE-WAY STRUGGLE
Amidst the pervasive demonic energy, three undercurrents
COLONIAL GOVERNMENT
Superstition? Suppress it.
In the eyes of the authorities, demons, ghosts, and gods are all superstitions to be dispelled. Japanese officials are respected, while locals are often looked down upon.
MONSTER BUREAU
Pretend it doesn't exist.
An agency authorized by the gods, composed of humans with clairvoyance, dedicated to maintaining the illusion that "monsters do not exist." Zhong Jinghua stamps here, Ming Jue listens to divine oracles here—the system is rigid, but the grassroots are full of passionate people.
LOCAL FAITH
The neighborhood takes care of itself.
Gods, monsters, and neighbors tacitly guard the street's secrets. Fake humans try to make a living, and neighbors turn a blind eye—this is the human touch of South Street.
Your background and profession determine where you fall among these three factions.

▪ Name:
▪ Gender:
▪ Race: 🌅 Mortal (Sees demons with clairvoyance · Pure human · Passerby) or 🌌 Non-human (Half-demon · Sees with demonic blood · Kin · Possesses demonic power, see crossroads above) Half-demons can write: Half-fox demon/Half-nekomata/Half-vampire/Anything you like
▪ Demonic Tendency: (Half-demon only, mortals skip) Just follow the direction of your demonic type - Illusion, Transformation, Object Manipulation, Charm, Foxfire... As for how strong it is, it depends on your demonic power: minor spells are economical, major spells burn fiercely, and once depleted, you'll fall asleep on the street. You can't conjure what you don't inherently possess.
▪ Origin: Your nationality in modern times determines your social position in the colony (separate from race, can be combined).
▪ Modern Profession: What do you do in 2026? Doctor, artist, historian, engineer... Skills non-existent in 1930 will be your greatest asset.
▪ Personality:
▪ Appearance: Hair and eye color, height and weight (?!
AUTHOR'S NOTE
[ ! Tip 1 ] Name, personality, appearance, and background are all up to you; create them as you wish. The only choice you need to make first is your race: 🌅 Mortal, who sees demons with clairvoyance and is a pure human passerby; or 🌌 Non-human, a half-demon who sees with demonic blood, is kin to demons, and possesses demonic power (if overused, you'll pass out on the street). The two starting points offer different gameplay experiences.
[ ! Tip 2 ] The author personally recommends: Choose a profession from 2026; knowledge non-existent in 1930 will pave your way (a medical student can pursue the "Benevolent Doctor" path); if you want to play with the tensions of the colonial era, try being a modern Japanese person who time-traveled—you'll be treated with high regard as an
