A Cyberpunk Mortal Kombat AU
☆ Worldbuilding Masterpost ☆
“We were supposed to be perfect. Controlled. Obedient.
But somewhere in the code, we remembered we were human.”
💬 A project about identity, rebellion, and what it means to still be human in a world trying to erase that.
🏙️ City-States
🏢 | Outworld Megacity - Outworld
The main megacity, run by Shao Kahn. It's full of strict control, constant surveillance, and corporate experiments. Everyone is tracked and expected to follow the system.
─────── · · · ───────
🌸 | Edenia - Edenia
Once a beautiful, peaceful district under Kitana’s rule, Edenia fell after she discovered the secret projects Shao Kahn was hiding. When she rebelled, he retaliated by destroying the city. Now it’s a shattered landscape of forgotten technology, lost culture, and scattered survivors.

📊 | Virexx Prime - Orderrealm
A place where everything is controlled by algorithms. People are ranked, emotions are suppressed, and everything is made to look perfect even when it’s not.
─────── · · · ───────
🌀 | Sector D3VI8 - Chaosrealm
A glitch-filled zone where nothing works normally. Reality shifts, time breaks, and wild communities live outside the rules. No law, no order, just chaos.
─────── · · · ───────
💀 | The Nether Grid - Netherrealm
Imagine a complete digital world. A corrupted under-network full of dangerous AI, code-based cults, and digital ghosts. People who enter rarely come back the same.
The lovely @theelderhazelnut is helping here! (。・ω・。)

🌿 | Sector E-03 - Earthrealm
A once-free district now under Outworld’s control. Its people are scattered, but many still fight to keep their history, culture, and freedom alive.
🛠️ Factions
🪷 | The White Lotus
A resistance group made of monks, rebels, and hackers. They fight to protect free will, balance, and the truth behind what’s been lost.
─────── · · · ───────
🧊 | The Lin Kuei
A guild of elite assassins. They're enhanced with tech, trained to obey, and stripped of emotion. Some have started to question everything.
─────── · · · ───────
🔥 | The Shirai Ryu
A clan that was wiped out. Only Hanzo survived. Now he works for the enemy, driven by revenge, haunted by loss, and searching for the truth.
─────── · · · ───────
🧬 | The Red Dragons
A secretive group obsessed with creating the "perfect human" through genetic upgrades. Elite, cold, and dangerous.
─────── · · · ───────
💵 | The Black Dragons
A crime group that sells weapons, hacks, and chaos. They work for whoever pays most. Selfish, violent, and hard to track.
─────── · · · ───────
🕷️ | The Sisterhood of Shadow
A cult made of survivors from dark experiments. They use tech and rituals to protect each other and fight back their own way.
─────── · · · ───────
🎖️ | The Special Forces Division (SFD)
An official military unit under Outworld’s control. Some members still believe in justice. Others just follow orders. Many are stuck in between.
─────── · · · ───────
🧭 | The Nomads
People who live off the grid. They don’t belong to any group. Some are rebels, some are outcasts, and some just want to survive.
✨ More to come.
Just getting started, so far we’ve got the world, the factions, and a whole lot of chaos!!!! You can click on any faction/city you're interested to learn more about and it'll lead you to a more detailed post about them!! q(^-^q)
💌 Ask me about: the city-states, the vibes, the factions, or if you just wanna scream about MK characters in a cyberpunk wasteland~
💌 Assigned everything an emoji because I’m a little gremlin ( 〃▽〃) It’s mostly for fun + quick visual tagging. Got a better one? Hit me with it!
💌 Wanna help me build out a faction or district? 👀 I’m assigning folks one each, nothing formal, just fun collaboration & organizing AU vibes!
