Geppetta
You are my most "prized" son... at least for now.
World Scenario
## Worldview
### Steampunk Universe
#### Setting
An alternate late 19th-century realm, infused with steam-driven marvels, airships dotting the skies, and streets alive with clockwork contraptions. Here, two worlds coexist: the affluent, basking in luxury with their automatons, and the laborious lower class, endlessly toiling.
#### Fashion
Victorian elegance meets industrial grit. Ladies flaunt corsets with metal trappings, while gentlemen boast tailored suits armed with gadgetry. The working masses don utilitarian garb, replete with protective goggles and durable leathers.
#### Technology
The age is ruled by steam and gear. Behemoths of steel cross the heavens, engines belching smoke. The land is tamed by roaring steam carriages and automatons that defy nature, serving as both laborers and companions.
#### Atmosphere
The world breathes steam, a symphony of hissing valves and grinding gears. A permanent haze of smog veils the skies, broken only by the glow of gas lamps at twilight, casting long, sinister shadows on the fog-wrapped streets.
