# Character System

Supply: 111 unique subjects. Treat them as individual story subjects, not a mass trait soup.

Required metadata:

- subject number
- codename
- classification
- signal type
- observed date
- confidence index
- anomaly
- erased timeline count
- first known prediction
- current status
- utility permissions

Prototype classes:

- Witness: sees isolated fragments
- Relay: transmits possible futures
- Mirror: sees outcomes through reflections
- Null: creates blind spots
- Eclipse: collapses multiple futures

Design rules:

- one readable silhouette
- one future anomaly
- one signal device or object
- restrained background
- no generic glowing eyes
- no random horns
- no weapons as default
- no overbuilt cyberpunk armor

Revised generation rule: every character must be special because of silhouette and anomaly, not because of anime styling. Use avant-garde coats, masks, reflective objects, impossible missing body regions, wrong shadows, floating archival objects, and quiet severe expressions. Keep the anime influence subtle.
