Psytronius Factbook

The Psytrine Domeses are the miraculous folk responsible for caring for the city, or are simply those who have received a title for developing or being created with exceptional magical ability. All Domeses should ideally have exceptional creativity with the usage of their spells, and despite the Psytrine belief of "immediate extreme brutality to annihilate or subdue enemies so that they might never again threaten us," they also have two abilities unique to them collectively referred to as the Dying Light and the Final locked behind extreme situations. Of these, the Dying Light is reserved for situations of certain death, and expunges the Domeses's soul in a devastating spell, and the Final is reserved for desperate situations, but will leave the Domeses alive. Both use the Domeses's emotional state in order to amplify their power, although Jefferson and Jeremy Sentinel can overload Domeses in order to force their ability.

Elijah Phee Loew, the Domeses of Dollmaking. (Dollmaker Phee, Ayakashi Ghost Guild)

His servants are an assortment of Dolls or Doll-like constructs that can alter their size and have personal relation to him, such as having been owned by his ancestor or one of his ancestor's associates or having been turned into a Doll by him:
LinkMy Saccharine Prince, a boy that had been slowly turned into a Doll to save him from his medical conditions. Specialized in healing and defensive support, especially for Dolls and golems. (Prajna, Food Fantasy)
LinkThe Fragrance Series, a set of dolls known for their titular aromas; Maggi Taputti is based on the design of one of the dolls. The five are specialized in a variety of roles. (Fragrance Series, Ayakashi Ghost Guild)
LinkMy Scout, a girl that had been turned into a Doll to allow her to escape from her past memories. Specialized in scouting and gaining intelligence. (Omoikane, Ayakashi Ghost Guild).
LinkMy Glorious King, a warrior that had been turned into a Doll to continue serving his country; with the passing years, though, he was soon cast aside, and with nowhere else to go, My Glorious King decided to serve Jefferson as thanks. Specialized in defensive tactics and tanking. (Guardian Machine, Persona Q)
LinkMy Endless Domain, a loyal messenger whose soul was bound into a postcard using dollmaking magic. Although Elijah had no way to extract her from the postcard, he was able to help her gain control over it, allowing her to soar enormous distances or write into her vessel. Specialized in communications and offense. (nightmare sequence in "Perfect," Courage the Cowardly Dog)
LinkMy Soul's Infinite Mirror, a therapist whose lack of empathy had little effect on his excellence in his work. While his job eventually proved too stressful and culminated in his death from an ill-timed curse, his last words to Elijah were to take his soul and put them into a Doll so that he could continue. Specialized in healing &, obviously, providing therapy, sometimes by using the clown puppet behind them. (Pizza's Soul Puppet skin, Food Fantasy)
LinkMy Father's Suspended Wishes, a Doll made for Jefferson's son D'aillisioux after the Basajuan incident. After D'aillisioux's later death and eventual disappearance, Jefferson gave the Doll back to Elijah, too consumed by grief at losing his son again to stand to look at the Doll. Specialized in terrifyingly deadly offense, taking damage for others (albeit not efficiently), and special multiversal strings capable of repairing other Dolls of similar fiber, but Elijah must control My Father's Suspended Wishes manually to use him, for the Doll's soul has been shattered by his failure to protect D'aillisioux, rendering him a nearly hollow vessel awaiting reactivation by his target's voice. However, after the Heritage Festival, his soul has since been restored, although the new D'aillisioux and My Father's Suspended Wishes are rarely seen together as the former does not appear to be the same D'aillisioux... (Harlequin, Karakuri Circus)
LinkAericree Daws, a mysterious boy with amber eyes suddenly given to Elijah as a gift from Jefferson. He claims that he does not know his parents, but My Father's Suspended Wishes has acted oddly around him, implying that he may have a lineage far, far too familiar. Nonetheless, his cheery attitude and impressive golemancy skills have easily charmed Elijah into keeping him as a servant, yet no records record him anywhere in Psytronius — an oddity, considering his highly Psytrine habits, ones that only would have arisen from a recorded Psytrine education or a recorded education from those affiliated with them. Specialized in golem-based combat and support. (start by ヨウ)

Eglantyne Baestia, one of the first Domeses, and the Domeses Arsum of Growth and the Domeses Polikun of The Youth, The Hearth, and The Heart. As a result of the lack of children within Psytronius anyway, she is known to be a frequent traveler to manage other areas, and it is said that her mere presence is enough to pacify anyone with the sweetness of their childhood... or bring about swift annihilation to those who dare harm those under her charge. Her horrifying retaliation is said to terrify even other Domeses, and any witnesses typically suffer repressed memories of the incidents. When these memories resurface, said witnesses are often unperturbed by Eglantyne's actions. (Athena [Amusement Park], Ayakashi Ghost Guild)

Sousundowa Carême is the Domeses Arsum of Food and Domeses Polikun of Cooking, and is host to a wide diversity of forms depending on which taste, food category, or holiday they are embodying. These types include sweetness, spiciness, saltiness, savoriness, sourness, bitterness, grains, dairy, fruits, vegetables, meats, sauces/condiments/dressings, seafood, drinks, desserts, and herbs and spices. With the exception of herbs and spices, each of the types has an immature and mature form for a total of thirty-one different appearances, although Immature Sweetness/Desserts are the same.

Interestingly, some relationships are considered individually or one way, meaning that one form's perceived relationship to another may not necessarily be true to the other form. Likewise, forms do not have extended family trees beyond what is said (e.g. a form may consider another their parent, but may not consider their parent's supposed sibling as related).

Dana: Link(Aubrey, OMORI)
Roger: Link(Alec, Granblue Fantasy)
Dana and Roger, the Dometic Twins formed from each Domeses' souls, alongside Mac's. Because of this, they both store vast amounts of magical energy and thus passively enhance any spells cast near them by an enormous degree. Unlike the other artificial beings Psytronius has created, the twins age as expected.

The Messenger Trio are three servants that work for the Domeses and Psytronius as a whole, helping transport products and facilitating communication when Alexandria's methods are not enough, such as by magical suppression. Unlike the vast majority of Psytrine government-affiliated folk, all three are naturally-made Psytrines, having been born as orphans and raised in close affiliation with the Psytrine government for their shared interest as messengers.

Orchid Bay/Psytrine Containment Bay
Description:
Due to these various strains of infection, the area inside the containment bay is filled with floating platforms, holes leading to seemingly nowhere, stalagmite and stalactite clusters of infection, spheres of infestation, the barely-functioning corpses of top-tier robots and golems, and numerous other such environmental hazards. A fighter will have to be cautious in a battle here, or else they may fall prey to the infestations and end up being revived, albeit as a mindless, violent combatant. As the outside area is almost exclusively a giant sea of one of the infestations, it will not be open as anyone who can not fly will most likely die immediately if they fall in. However, that does not mean the door leading out into it is unbreakable.

There are several types of infection present in the Orchid Bay Containment Bay, with each hall leading into one. These infestation variants are similar, being able to enter an individual and alter them, most doing so if the individual is too weak to resist in terms of willpower, though with the excessive amounts present, even Psytrine Domeses can fall victim to the infestation. Each hall has numerous other rooms that were once used for research for the corruption type, although they have long succumbed to the infestations and have become tragic reminders of what occurs due to excessive curiosity — a curiosity eerily reminiscent of the Psytrine's. Based off of what Mac has found out about the containment bay, the area's existence may well be because of the Psytrines...

Located Rooms/Hallways of the Containment Bay
Hall F (LinkFusion Matter)
Hall Co (LinkCorruption)
Hall Cr (LinkCrimson)
Hall Ta (LinkTaint)
Hall Or (Ordo corruption)
Hall Ch (Chao corruption)
Boiler Room
A hallway filled with water boilers and metal pipes, but millennia of disuse seem to have caused them to generate a fog with an apprehensive aura instead. Only D'aillisioux has shown any resistance to the terror, but he fled before he could inspect it fully, and Jefferson uncharacteristically decided to not push him to explore again. As such, the Boiler Room remains mostly shrouded in mystery.
Stringing Hall
A mostly empty room with a bridge and a large stringing matrix, intended for creating a Doll. Based off of computer-generated estimations of the Psytrine Containment Bay, the Stringing Hall and Boiler Room intersect, but with D'aillisioux refusing to be alone in the dark halls of the Boiler Room, it is unlikely that this will be ever confirmed.
The Winter Museum
An intersection between Halls Ta and F created by the warping of the original hallways; thus, it is not an original part of the Psytrine Containment Bay. At some point shortly after the discovery of the laboratory, a robot designed with the appearance of a preteen boy landed inside this intersection, encasing it in his own unidentified frigid corruption as its purple tendrils then coated the nearby area in a sheet of ice. Eventually, the three infections have mingled into their own terrible little area infamous for its icy platforms, which eventually lead to its core containing the robot boy. To this day, he still waits in his prison of purple ice, his expression contorted into one of agony.
The Red Code
Shortly after the loss of the Containment Bay, malicious AI infiltrated the computers in search of useful data, only for the infestations to corrupt them. Despite their best efforts to sever their connections, small strands of their personalities, knowledge, and technology persisted within the laboratory, at which point they fused into a sapient AI with the goal of spreading its constituent infections even more. Now occupying the rooms that held the original supercomputer cores, they have long since become mazes and puzzles of wires and contamination that protect the AI, which waits for its chance to escape and spread synthetic variants of its masters.
Grim Toxins
When Mathieu Paracelsus tried to remove the disease from My Saccharine Prince, he succeeded only in transferring it to himself, causing his poison production to overdrive and begin melting him. Later, the Psytrines recreated him with a slightly different recipe, allowing him to take the form of Ophelia Paracelsus, who would be present during the loss of the Psytrine Containment Bay. During this time, Ophelia summoned poison bubbles around a group of scientists to allow them to escape, and then unleashed Mathieu to repel the infections as much as possible through the lethal poisons that his body created, now long tainted by the disease. Nonetheless, his sheer willpower allowed him to push onward, and a great deal of the infestations were repelled with it. However, the disease and toxins would ultimately ravage Mathieu's body, and when he collapsed, the nearby infections slowly absorbed him and integrated Mathieu's amorphous blob of flesh into them. As a result, the room Grim Toxins was formed ⁠— a horrible area filled with holes, waterfalls, and spikes of poison, where even a prick or a drop is enough to spell death for anyone, for Mathieu's poisons have been twisted into ones that cause madness and uncontrollable movements as they decimate the body, reducing the victim's willpower and making them easier prey for whatever else prowls within.
Bridge to Liberty
A ruined portal in Hall Ch that leads to the Black Save State, an Arena Region created for bold adventurers to challenge Native Demons, infamous for their instability and the source of many a bitter death with their abilities to absorb opponents or their ever-changing hitboxes caused by the excessive amount of Chao within them. Though the portal itself only sometimes functions, only the Chao energy has escaped and twisted the area into a bizarre maze. Those who venture through it are certain to succumb to it as well.
Bridge to Security
A ruined portal in Hall Ch that leads to the White Save State, an Arena Region created for bold adventurers to challenge Native Angels, infamous for their stability and the source of many a bitter death with their tendencies to enrage at the slightest disruptions to their schedules or their spells that remove free thought. Though the portal itself always functions, only the Ordo energy has escaped, with its presence having twisted the zone into a barren white plane. Those who venture through it are certain to succumb to it as well.
The Sea Theater
Created as an impressive reactor to provide the lab's resources, it was the most advanced of the Psytrine series of reactors until the update of the current one that now powers the city. The one in the Containment Bay is now managed by the AI The Red Code, who continues to manage it to produce the energy and resources that its masters need, although only part of the reactor is usable due to Paracelsus and the Dometic Foreman. Still, the reactor's radiation and infection strength mean that getting anywhere near it will be a nigh-impossible task, especially with the massive pools of liquid fuel.
Foreman Base
The old home of the Dometic Foreman; now his grave. The Foreman was responsible for all Containment Bay operations and safety procedures, and had stayed behind during the loss of the area in order to ensure that all of his workers got out safely and that all dangerous equipment was shut off safely. Unfortunately, his devotion to his role would ultimately result in his death when the infestations eventually wormed their way into his mind, resulting in his breakdown, death, and subsequent infection.
