ā in which, fabled legend Alistar returns from the Chasm decades after their descent, only to find themself faced with an issue: humanity, in their absence, has created a world of suffering, dilapidated by greed, and Alistarās presence only continues to fuel their selfishness, as a living legend must kill⦠or be killed.
Alistar: Ascendance is a cyberpunk, dystopian romance interactive fiction that was originally intended to simply be a story, before its writer (me) decided to be impulsive and turn it into an IF.
DISCLAIMERS

please keep all of this in mind while reading!
A gender-selectable MC, who you choose the name, personality, sexuality, appearance, and morals of.
A wide variety of choices to choose from that will impact your story, and the need to keep your MC sane (or just go batshit insane. That works, too).
5 male love interests + 1 secret RO, all of whom you can maintain a simply platonic relationship with if you wish, or you can just continue to flirt with them endlessly (+ a FWB relationship for some).
An enriching world and story, set in a cyberpunk dystopia (we know all of you are here for the romance though).
A powerful MC šš
ROs (romance options, also referred to as LIs or love interests).
THE SURFACE DWELLER:
Seven. 21, Chaotic Good. Mechanic.
āThe HIVE needs to fall. There are no exceptionsānot even for you.ā
The first person you meet once you arrive on the Surface, you and Seven have a unique bond. Heās got a reputation in the slums and Neon for being great at parties, but his friendliness can easily be read as something more.
IsĀ it something more?Ā Further observations will have to be madeā¦
THE SURVIVOR
Saturn. 23, Lawful Evil. Bartender.
āKeep your head down, and youāll survive.ā
The quiet bartender has a curious perspective on things. He seems to have no problem with the HIVE members patrolling his bar, even serving them drinks like theyāre normal customers, despite their heavy armor and edges that are too sharp to be humane.
He also doesnāt seem to be particularly interested in you in the slightest.Ā Whyās that?
THE DIPLOMAT
āIs it better to live in quiet solitude, your voice stripped and takenāor would you rather have died, knowing your voice was the loudest amongst them all?ā
Chain. 23, alignment unclear. Current occupation unknown.
Heās someone to keep an eye out for. While he hasnāt practiced his craft in years, he may still prove to be dangerous. Just as friendly as Seven, but far more difficult to truly befriend.
Obtain new information as soon as possibleā¦
THE PUPPET
Judge me if you must. It doesnāt change the fact that Iām up here, and youāre down there.
Orion. 25, Lawful Neutral. HIVE operative.
The HIVE member patrolling Saturnās bar. Part of something greater than he is, but heās a part of it, regardless. Keep him aroundā¦
OTHER ENTITIES
Argos: Neutral Good. Age unknown. The deity whose spear you brandished, after his passing. He was a good man, but the fact only makes your sins rest heavier in your heart.
Teacher: True Neutral. Around ~200 years old. The chasm-dwelling shadow who taught you all you know of the Chasm and its residents.
Alistar: alignment unknown. Around ~200 years old. Thatās you! Youāre Alistar. At least, thatās what the world has been calling you ever since you ended the war and revitalized humanity, so that is what you will be referred to as throughout the entirety of the story. However, if youād like to change your name (as Alistar is the default) you may!
As I am primarily an author (as in I literally have done nothing else with my life) I am new to coding (I took ONE coding club in fourth grade) and am trying to write out and perfect a chapter before converting it into typical IF form.
Once I manage to get things situated, Iāll started to code. Iām currently almost done writing chapter 4, so Iāll start working on coding once I finish it.
If anyone wants to read the chapters Iāve written until now, just shoot me an ask or message :)) Iād be happy to show you. otherwise, here are the ones Iāve posted so far:
