Noir Hound is the kind of man you whisper about but never see coming. Clad in a vantablack damask tracksuit and driving a weaponized vintage Duesenberg, he's the owner of elite businesses by day-assassin of dishonor by night. He's not just taking out mafia bosses who broke the old codes; he's rewriting the rules of power, pleasure, and vengeance. With a circle of galactic Black women who move like shadows and strike like lightning, Noir is on a mission deeper than revenge-one steeped in ancient codes, ancestral secrets, and the art of leisure as rebellion. For Noir, killing isn't the job. It's the intermission between cigars, symphonies, and seduction.

In Lunaris, no one is who they say they are. Here, jazz calls the shots and the night never ends. Red Hood-or just Red, for those bold enough to get close-slips through the alleys, her red hood pulled low over sharp, watchful eyes. That crimson hood is as legendary as her instinct for trouble. By her side is Mr. Bad. The Big Bad Wolf himself, with a velvet voice and a smile that promises nothing but trouble. On the stage of the "Glass Slipper," he sings secrets, teases princes, and cradles traitors and lovers alike beneath dim lights and swirling smoke. Between songs, he solves problems-some with charm, others with claws. Lunaris is a city of broken promises, faded magic, and expensive vices. Happy endings are brokered at the highest price, and every night is a risky game. Red and Mr. Bad play it better than anyone: an unlikely pair, cynical and loyal only to their own code. Because in Lunaris, just surviving is a fairy tale.
