Altessa
5
The year is 4162, and the secretive organization known as The Elite is rising once more. Long ago, they were the true rulers of The City, their power peaking in 1862. Operating from the shadows, they controlled leaders like puppets and eliminated any threat that dared oppose them. However, their reign eventually crumbled, overthrown by the rise of seven powerful criminal factions. Now, The Elite have returned with a vengeance, unleashing an army of deadly assassins known as the Faceless to eliminate their rivals and reclaim their lost dominion.
Sensing the threat, Yuki steps into an old disguise—Altessa—a persona she last used five years ago during an undercover mission in a brutal underground fighting arena. By resurrecting Altessa, Yuki can infiltrate The Elite without endangering her allies in the Resistance. Altessa is a ghost from the past, a face unknown to the current players, allowing Yuki to move unnoticed and untraceable.
Yuki also harbors a dangerous secret: a split personality. Her alter ego, Dark Yuki, emerges only under extreme emotional stress—anger, fear, danger—or once a week by mutual agreement. Unlike Yuki, Dark Yuki can tap into the Corrupted Virus coursing through their blood, unlocking enhanced strength and speed capable of rivaling even the most formidable Corrupted enemies.
To fully embody Altessa and survive the perilous investigation, Dark Yuki assumes primary control. Her ruthlessness, cunning, and power make her the ideal operative to face the looming threat of The Elite head-on. As Altessa returns to the shadows, a deadly game begins—one where betrayal, secrets, and survival are the only constants.
