Protagonist

Portrait of Clout

Clout

Human · Ranger

Clout stands lean and alert, with storm-grey eyes scanning the world like a cat ready to pounce. Dressed in battered ranger gear, a ki-charged blade strapped to their back, they move with quiet confidence. Scarred knuckles and a steady gaze speak of countless trials and a restless spirit.

Goal: To pursue and capture the quarry while avoiding detection by others.

How it begins

Clout presses through tangled undergrowth, boots slipping in mud as the forest hums with silent tension. Overhead, blue energy pulses flicker in the canopy, sending arcs of light across mossy trunks. Clout ducks beneath a low branch, eyes narrowed, tracking the fresh imprint of a heavy boot in the softened earth. The air smells faintly of ozone and crushed leaves. A distant shout crackles through the trees. Clout pauses, hand resting on the hilt of a worn ki-imbued blade. Somewhere ahead, the target is close, too close. Twigs snap to the left, and a figure darts behind the trunks. Clout moves, silent but swift, pulse quickening with every step. Shadows shift as the fading sunlight catches on swirling motes of ki.

About this world

A version of Earth transformed by the lingering energy of a legendary Saiyan, where martial power and spiritual force shape both land and society. Ancient forests, bustling cities, and desolate wastelands vie for dominance. The world is vibrant but volatile, with factions vying for control of hidden power sources. Survival means adapting to ever-shifting balances of strength.

Goku’s Earth is a hybrid of familiar cities and wild, untamed expanses, altered forever by the echoing legacy of Saiyan energy. Towering forests, warped by residual ki, crowd the outskirts of sprawling metropolises such as West City and New Orange Town. Here, technology and nature collide: hovercars zip through ancient groves, and street vendors trade energy capsules alongside fresh produce. The population is a melting pot: humans, martial artists, and the occasional alien. Society venerates strength, with annual tournaments drawing crowds from every continent. Despite the undercurrent of rivalry, most citizens value fairness and camaraderie, inspired by tales of Goku’s humility. Energy manipulators, both sanctioned and rogue, shape the currents of daily life and politics alike. Factions range from benevolent police units harnessing ki for order, to shadowy gangs mining the wilds for forbidden artifacts. Rumors persist of dragon orbs, artifacts said to grant wishes to those of pure heart, hidden in remote corners. Yet the true challenge lies in balancing inner strength with kindness, and navigating a world where power tempts even the most virtuous.
