Fabula (Character Concept) - Voces Lucis
Vox Designation: 004 Name: Fabula Pronouns: They/Them Ideal: Tale Associated Colour: Black Memory: A Lost Lie Archetype: Troublemaker
Fabula is the second youngest of the Voces and they enjoy making impulsive chaotic decisions. They are the first of the Voces we meet other than the player character.
They hold creativity and adaptability as important values. They dislike people trying to change their stories or make a moment serious.
Fabula feels closest with Spero due to them both having the younger designations. Spero's innocence and whimsical spirit also grants them a natural prowess in telling Tales which draws Fabula's interest. They dislike Amor's perceptiveness and Cogito's need to put everything into neat rules, and they respect Votum's power.
As the Troublemaker, Fabula is our guide through the early stages of the game. They are initially rude and a bully towards Spero but grow to appreciate his own creativity. They place obstacles in Spero's path to help them grow and become his own person.
Fabula's associated game mechanic, Tale, is the ability to interpret the stories of objects and create new ones out of darkness. It is the primary puzzle mechanic of the game and is inherently tied to the Mindscape it takes place in.

Voces Lucis is a concept for a puzzle-roguelite video game about the eponymous group of beings who have lost themselves within the Mindscape. Spero—the newest of the Voces—must delve into runaway trains of thought in order to save their companions and help them remember who they are.
It takes inspiration from Blue Prince, Deltarune, and AI: The Somnium Files, with a sprinkle of The Amazing Digital Circus in there for good measure.
