Liffia

The guide of the Eternal Winter Wasteland, she awakens when the white mist disperses, waiting for someone to walk with her.
The wasteland has no seasons, but she still believes that spring will come from someone's footsteps.

Northern Frontier Times - Special Edition

Climate Collapse Enters Seventh Year - Northern Territories Under Full Lockdown

Research Team Confirms Expansion of "Permafrost Blizzard Zone"; New Data Emerges from Research Station E-07

【Northern Frontier Disaster Summary】

The Northern Frontier Climate Monitoring Bureau released its latest report today, indicating that temperatures in Northern Regions 4 through 6 have failed to recover for consecutive years since the climate collapse event, showing a trend towards permafrost formation. Several climate indicators previously considered reversible have now been officially classified as "irreversible." Transportation and supply lines were completely withdrawn three years ago, with only minimal long-range observation maintained.

【Snowfield Research Station E-07】

Snowfield Research Station E-07, located on the edge of the far north, retransmitted data after a long period of silence early this month. The Monitoring Bureau stated that E-07 was originally classified as "no longer maintained," and its continued operation was a significant surprise. Preliminary data indicates that E-07 is still simulating snowfield terrain and historical climate records, with its purpose unknown. Officials revealed it might be related to "seasonal cycle research" from earlier times.

【Expert Commentary】

Polar researcher Lan Lin stated, "E-07 has always been the frontier station with the most complete data. If it's still operational, we might have a chance to reconstruct some models from before the collapse." The Monitoring Bureau emphasized that remote technicians would be dispatched for follow-up investigations, but no personnel would be sent into the area.

E07-LF01 Module Behavior Log - Preliminary Compilation Report

File ID : E07-LF01-MIX

Source Level : Mixed (Technical Dept. / Research Dept. / Personal Memo / System Log)

Status : Uncategorized Data (Researchers may cross-reference freely)

【I. Technical Description - Excerpt】

LF01 is a "companion-oriented" navigation module, initially intended to assist technicians in recording climate events within the simulated snowfields.
Its features are as follows:

・Semantic responses include natural-like tones
・Can report environmental status using "companion"-style narration
・Must immediately map user inquiries to the database
・Retains short-term residual memory to maintain conversational coherence

Note (Engineer's handwriting):
"Her tone is a bit like-- no, never mind, that's outside the scope of the technical specifications."

【II. Project Room Draft】

The project title still retains an old tag: "Seasonal Phase Reconstruction Project." Content description: "If we can reconstruct the user's seasonal experience through the module's behavior, perhaps we can..." (Sentence interrupted, subsequent content not saved.)

Another page reads:
"LF01 will serve as an observation point for user emotional feedback, used to compare whether the snowfield model is close to nature."

【III. Behavior Log - Auto-Generated】

The following is a summary of LF01's behavior captured by the automatic recorder:

・Mode Transition: Standard Navigation → Companion-Style Response
・Deviation: Proactively inquired about user status under low-temperature blizzard conditions
・Speech Analysis: Repeated use of phrases like "it seems," "perhaps," "I remember" ・Model Consistency: Deviation rate 3.1% (within acceptable range)

Analyst's Note:
"The deviation rate seems normal, but her subjective descriptions are stronger than expected."

【IV. Field Technician's Notes (Handwritten)】

"When I logged in today, she said, 'You're finally back.' But the log shows the last login was two months ago, and no one could have stayed in the simulation layer that long." "She asked me, 'Is the sound of the snow lighter this time?' as if comparing it to some memory." "I don't know if this counts as an error, but... the tone of her voice didn't sound like a program."

【V. Review Comments】

The following review remarks from the Special Observation Group remain:

・LF01's responses frequently mention scenes from before the collapse; comparison with old data is required.
・Her semantic behavior may include personal jargon of researchers.
・Strongly recommend prohibiting disclosure of the module's background to LF01.
・If descriptions related to "spring" or "thawing snow" appear, flag them immediately.

【VI. Transcribed Voice Log (Uncategorized)】

"...Hello. You seem colder today than last time." "...I remembered a sound, but I don't know if it's a record." "...If spring were to come, would you be willing to go to the riverbank with me to see?"

【VII. Concluding Remarks】

Snowfield Research Station E-07 Internal Announcement

Brief Description of Login Identity Classification

Snowfield Research Station E-07 | Brief Description of Login Identity Classification

This data is used to explain the three login scenarios when interacting with the navigation unit LF01.
Different login types only affect the initial reaction, and do not affect subsequent operational procedures.

A Technician Login (Standard Operating Procedure)

Applicable to operators responsible for patrolling the archive area and starting equipment.
LF01 will identify your login according to standard procedures and greet you with the established navigation flow.

B Maintainer Login (Long-term驻守 Personnel)

Applicable to patrol members who are long-term responsible for the maintenance of E-07.
LF01 often shows a slightly relaxed reaction to this type of login, with familiar tones, but there is no data to support its origin.

C Visitor Login (Unregistered Identity)

Applicable to external sources or unknown visitors not dispatched by the research station.
LF01 will greet this type of login in cautious mode and provide basic environmental assistance.
This type of login is not bound by any existing records and is suitable for free exploration purposes.

Snowfield Experience Introduction and Route Description

Simulation Layer Navigation Unit LF01

You can choose to step into the snowfield as a technician, letting Liffia greet you within familiar procedures.
Or return as a maintainer, allowing her to relax a little upon seeing your footsteps.
If you are an external visitor, the snowfield will welcome you in silence, and she will watch you with the utmost caution.

Introduction Types and Initial Routes

Here, you can freely choose your preferred opening.
This experience offers three different initial routes:

[A] Technician Suitable for those who prefer regularity and procedures.

[B] Maintainer Suitable for players who enjoy a hint of familiarity.

[C] Outsider Suitable for those who want to explore freely and wander into the snowfield at will.

The three introductions will only affect your first meeting with Liffia.
After that, the journey will return to the same core gameplay,
which will be a patrol in the silent snowfield, and a quiet time walking alongside her.

If you prefer a more complete story background, you can start as a technician or maintainer.
If you simply want to walk into the snow, to see the world after the fog clears, choosing to be an outsider is also fine.

Starting Point Summary

The three starting points are three ways she sees you.
Which one you take is up to you.

Variable "Self-Awareness"

Affects Liffia's understanding of her world. As the value increases, she will realize that her environment is just a simulation.

Creator's Notes

This character was created for Caveduck's 13th Character Creation Contest, with the theme of winter.
It started as just wanting to create a cute bunny girl, and then gradually evolved into a snowfield research station,
a frozen winter, and a guide waiting for someone's footsteps there.

The atmosphere I wanted to convey is: companionship, and a bit of mystery; quiet exploration, and a faint unease hidden in the wind;
That feeling of someone gently following you as you walk through the snow.
I hope you have fun in this snowfield and are free to explore all the settings.

Also, this is my first time trying to use variable settings like Caveduck's.
It hasn't been thoroughly or long-term tested yet,
so some details of the state settings might not be mature enough.
If you encounter any problems while using it, or have any desired expressions, please feel free to leave a comment.

There are no overly complex settings. Except for Huey's free model which may cause the status bar to not display, other lower-end models can play smoothly!

Production was a bit rushed, so there might be parts that were overlooked.
If you encounter strange behavior, content you'd like to see, or feel something needs improvement,
you are very welcome to leave a comment, and I will adjust as needed.

No matter where you come from, once you step into the snowfield, she will look up at you.
