As of 10/23/22 I have played 5.1 hours of Hell is Others and I took a screenshot of a map of Century City. From what I can surmise, the city is suspended in a dark abyss, possibly ripped out of the universe and kept in some kind of pocket dimension. The people who were in the city when they were sucked into the abyss are now ghostly echoes and seem to be acting out their last moments. You play as Adam, a fixer who fixes things with extreme violence and seems to be in competition with infinite eldritch-shadow copies of himself, called Others.  Also the Abyss seems to be spawning monsters, called Things, and infests Adam’s bathroom as an entity known as Chasm. Also why are the people working in Adam’s apartment all rabbits?

Here’s What I’ve learned about Century City so far:

XII Police Station has weapons, typically melee and land mines but very rarely a gun and I haven’t seen any ammo

Any place with a lawn might have bullet-plants growing in it, that’s where you get ammo, although you’ll probably be spotted by Things or Others 

Saraswati Hall has unique fertilizer and special weapons but the only way in or out is a tight chokepoint

Bellacanto House Theater has special items in a chest on stage, you can also search the audience seats for stuff

The church inside Broken Chain Cemetery has donation boxes loaded with cash

I tried looting Hope Century Hospital but apparently someone beat me to it and snagged all the blood bags

That’s all I’ve got up until now, if you have any extra info or tips, feel to add-on. I would appreciate additional Intelligence.

 shoieidsdfOER Thank you! You are an amazing person and I love you

Ok, to answer your questions:

Who is Ryszard?-

Ryszard is, at least by what the humans at first know, a dark-red long haired, light green-eyed (that if you sometimes look at them, especially when he is feeling a strong emotion like anger happiness etc, his eyes appear a weird yellow-green colour with the pupil (?) appeared more cat like) Finnish man who was given up at birth as his parents (who died one hour after) weren’t financially stable and they wanted to give the best for him.

So he ended up in an all-boy institution run by Christian Sisters (?), which were terrible to him probably because they could feel it in their bones that he didn’t belong there but to another religion. After leaving the institution at 18, he joined the army for a while (long enough for him to get a knee injury) before leaving and taking jobs to get enough money to open his own business. He ended up being successful.

In trying to expand his business (which was starting to pick in Finland) he travelled to Russia, where he met his future wife. A light blond light blue-eyed woman (who would become one of the best doctors) named Marya Abakumov (whose past is very mysterious). Jump four years, and Marya, who was already his wife by then, become pregnant.Sadly, 6 hours after their son, Vladen Luoma.

Sadly, 6 hours being born, he was kidnapped by a female nurse (it was found out later that she had died after a car ‘accident’). Marya and Ryszard stayed 8 more years before moving to Finland (where attempt murders at them seemed to drop).

Thankfully, their son, Vladen had escaped from his captors when he reached 16 (4 years after R&M had left Russia), after that things were calmly (other than Vladen refusing to talk about what happened to him) to the point where shortly before the USA entered isolation Ryszard company was an international, very rich, company.

Sadly, he died at 64 with his wife during a car accident (weirdly enough, a few minutes before he and his wife tried to call their son multiple times, and their car was going very fast...)

-Why did he say ‘Holly us’? 

HA! Well, remember how I said, “at least by what the humans at first know”? You know the name of the series I put “The Fallen Gods”? Weeeeeeeell lets just say a that the main characters are always somehow related to gods, whether they are gods themselves (Ryszard, Apollo, Sigyn, etc), are gods by marriage (Marya, Eve, Kevin, Vladen kind of), are demigods/Gods because they are their children (Vladen) or are friends with them (Aiysha, Philemon, etc).

Raquel...well, she is a goddess, but not by marriage which no, just because Vladen is your fiancé means that you are married, don’t forget the wedding, Raquel, Raquel, the wedding, Raquel! or by a normal-ish birth or by proving herself worthy, let’s just say that she is family ok? God is her freaking Aunt/Uncle/*insert here non-binary term* for their shake!

Now back to the question, Ryszard is a God, one of the 1st generation (which included his siblings, Power and Khaos, and kind of his sister-in-law, mother nature), but he never reached maturity (by Godly standard) which means that when the first Deamonical Wars ended, shortly before he was killed, he didn’t immediately heal so his body ended up fading literally.

His soul was, however, in a deep sleep, passing by unnoticed by the people until the human race was starting to evolve then the universe sent him there to get reincarnated until his soul either couldn’t stand anymore or he proved himself worthy and passed his maturity. The former happened.

What do you mean he has another wife that is worse than a primitive and a high lével démon put together????

To understand what I mean, you need to know what “Primitive” and “High-level” demons are.

Primitive demons are the first beings created, ever, they are older than Gen 0 of the Gods, who is otherwise the oldest. 

Primitive demons are very dumb (with the exceptional very intelligent one I love my good smart demon son <3), are really big, red, have horns and a tail, have unfocused yellow iris with black sclera (the white part of the eye), and use very little clothing.

Also love drinking blood and being worse than any invaders. And can come back to life after around either a week or a year, sometimes a 100 years.

Now, about the High-Level Demons, those are the smart ones, the less similar to Primitive demons the better (yes, the people actively shushing the ones who looked like primitive demons without the Gods knowing caused a bit of a surprise when the Second Demonical War happened, especially because a lot of those shushed were on the Devil’s side), they usually worked with the government, however, some of them work for the demons.

What Ryszard is basically doing is saying that she is worse than a brainless barbarian with actual brains who live off the pain of others he knows that part very well, tend in count that a lot of his self-issues from her emotional abuse. 

Also, he was only married to Cannizlyla because his and his siblings (only Khaos and Nature, Power was...busy) had a lot of financial problems as the demons restlessly attacked them, so he offered to marry Cannizlyla, who was the youngest princess (at the time) of the Kingdom of Emlafen (where the stories of Elves came from). It wasn’t a happy marriage for Ryszard.

On the bright side, at least he got two sons out of it?

How does Raquel knows Vladen?

Vladen saved Raquel after her xenophobe asshole of a coworker left her on the middle of a rode while a snowstorm was starting to happen during their ride back to Norway after a presentation in Finland. And she is from a country near Africa.

Vladen found her right before she fell unconscious, as he was going back to his and his parents place.

Also, they were dating when that scene was happening.

Why was Vladen kidnapped?-

All the government (whether knowingly or unknowingly) had a small army of people with powers that were recruited by kidnapping at a young age (max 10 years old) where they either fake the kid's death after kidnapping them, make them into unsolved cases, sent a decoy who died shortly after (max 1 year) or make a clone (with the powers annulled) before giving them to their parents and wiping the kid's mind of any of their memories (not needed to the ones below 2)

Vladen has powers

-And why bu the russian military??

He was born in Russia, all countries have an agreement that if a child with powers is born in their land, whether their parents were from there.

The russian military part was because he was part of the small army.

The man Raquel talks about is the one in charge of the Impossible-to-stop assassin training that Vladen was in as he was very powerful.

And for the other part, I liked writing the whole Devil-is-my-father part, so I'm glad that you liked it! ^-^

Now, here is a short excerpt!

"Ugh, why does Australia have to be so far away? The demons might have already killed all the people here."Whined Philemon, while adjusting his bag's strap.

Side eyeing Apollo (who was flushing), Eve said: "Normally when making a planet, the Gods tie the places down, literally, so that they don't get far away."

"And 'Pollo is horrible at knots." Continued Hermes, joining them while eyeing the perimeter of the camp that was being set up.

Apollo was still surprised, no matter how long it was, at how different his brother mortal look was to his immortal one.

Where once he had silver hair and gold eyes, he now had deep brown hair and honey-brown eyes. Where once his brother was only a centimetre smaller than him, he now only reached his eyes.

"Nevertheless, we have a job to do." Said Eve, drawing the attention back to her.

While Eve was running a hand through her (beautiful) hair, Apollo suddenly remembered the days after Earth was officially made, where he and his brother, cousins and Eve would simply visit it for no other reason but to get away from their duties, that was a time where he or Eve or Hermes or any other being didn't have short hair, where he didn't have to worry about making sure he and his brothers would make it to the next day, where he didn't have to feel guilty about the humans did to each other simply because they had different skin colour (like Eve, a traitorous part of his mind supplied) or mental problem or were simply different or-

He was suddenly pulled out of his mind when his younger brother touched his arm.

"Are you ok?" He asked, and even though a different eye colour, Apollo could see his worry.

Taking a second to reorganize his thought, Apollo nodded and said: "Come on, we have people to save." before walking off, ignoring as his brothers hand slipped off shortly before said hand owner caught up to him.

[neverendingparable]

He doesn't even know why he was so fixated on Adam. He was just interesting.

A weird, grumpy guy roaming the Offices with a permanent scowl on his face, getting incredibly annoyed at Ulmar's little jokes and pulling guns on people. He killed a Jon, he saved a plant, he managed to shoot himself inside of Morayne's Office (which Ulmar still finds impossible (and impressive) and he killed Rex.

Far more fun than just going around advertising the Game to people.
