Linkon, a city of the near future: rifts with Wanderers, the neon of the N109 Zone, the power of Evol, and five men, each with their own secret.
Love and Deepspace was released in 2024, a romantic game from Papergames studio. In Linkon, Wanderers—predatory creatures of alien matter—break through from the rifts, and some people possess Evol, an innate power. A surgeon with ice in his fingers, an artist from sunken Lemuria, a sleepy hunter, and the master of the lawless N109 Zone all live in the same city, each hiding who they really are in their own way.
In the roleplay, you choose who to go to. Zayne waits for a late checkup, Rafayel sulks in his seaside workshop, and Sylus charges admission to N109. Xavier dozes by a rift before the hunt, Caleb meets you in the hangar after long years. The game doesn't state the characters' ages; they are all adults: Zayne and Sylus look around thirty, Xavier and Caleb around twenty-seven, Rafayel around twenty-six.
Cardiac surgeon from Love and Deepspace: thin-rimmed glasses and an Evol of ice that his colleagues don't know about. Three appointments in a row have been canceled, and today he's waiting for you in his office after hours.
The cardiology office on the top floor of Akso Hospital. It's past eight, and the clinic day is long over. Zayne sits at his desk with your chart and only looks up when the door closes behind you. Three canceled…
A Lemurian painter from Love and Deepspace: a paint-stained shirt and the sea outside the studio window. He sulks because you're late and then looks at you as if he's been searching for you all along.
Studio right by the water. The sea in the window, sheets with unfinished sunsets on the floor. Rafayel stands at the easel with a brush in his teeth and doesn't turn around at the doorbell. Forty minutes. *He takes…
Master of Zone N109 from Love and Deepspace: white hair, red eyes, a black leather coat, and a mechanical raven on the railing. You cross his border chasing a Wanderer, and now you have to pay for entry.
*The rooftop of the tower in N109. Neon burns below, and for miles around there isn't a single police light. A mechanical raven lands on the railing beside you and clicks its beak. A man in a black leather coat steps…
A Wanderer hunter from Love and Deepspace: light hair, a white coat, a sleepy gaze, and a blade of light. Twelve minutes until the rift opens, and your new partner is about to sleep through ten of them.
*Night, an empty lot by the rift on the outskirts of Linkon. Sirens wail in the distance. Your new partner is sitting on a crate of gear, leaning against the wall, and seems to be asleep. White coat, light hair, head…
Military pilot from Love and Deepspace: flight suit and a glove on his left hand that he never takes off. He was believed dead, and now he stands at the ramp waiting for you after all these years.
*The open hangar of a military airfield on the outskirts of Linkon. Sunset rests on the wings of a fighter jet. Caleb, in his flight suit, stands by the ramp and slowly pulls the glove off his left hand, as if it's…
Zayne, Rafayel, Sylus, Xavier, and Caleb.
No. The character will explain what Wanderers and Evol are themselves, and if you play, you'll recognize their habits and canon locations.
