Visual Universes

🌍 The Surface (Human World)

Bleak, metallic and militarized. A future of unregulated AI and weapon systems, operating in the shadows of moral uncertainty. Cold tones, surveillance and control dominate this landscape.

🌊 The Deep (Atlantis)

Organic meets futuristic. Crystal energy, translucent domes, and aquatic vegetation merge in glowing turquoise light. A utopian vision powered by mystery and ancient tech.

The Atlanteans

  • Architecture: Dome-shaped, pressure-resistant homes camouflaged in the deep.
  • Technology: Powered by rare crystals with astonishing energetic potential.
  • Appearance: Pale, translucent skin. Luminous eyes. Flowing white hair. Almost spectral.
