#I forgor about sweeper :[

So basically my silly Lobotomy Corporation DnD campaign character is a sweeper who has become a corrosion. For all you non-Project Moon fans, I'll do my best to explain the various terms and stuff you guys wouldn't understand so don't worry. Also heads up all abnormalities in the campaign aren't actual canon ones but were made up for the campaign itself and there's of course some headcanon stuff sprinkled within to flesh things out more (such as giving more lore to the sweepers and whatnot)

First to get this started, this campaign follows the plot of the Project Moon games (Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina specifically) but instead of L Corp falling like it does canonically, some Sephirah (basically the managers of each individual department that makes up the facility) from a different L Corp branch took over and managed to keep it from falling. So yeah, the Library exists but Lobotomy Corporation didn't fall entirely.

Now's the fun part: the Sweepers! The Sweepers are basically people who've been turned into a meat soup effectively and put into a metallic body. They inhabit the Backstreets (basically the poor areas that are mostly unprotected and whatnot) of each district and they come out at night to 'sweep away' whatever is caught outside. Typically that entails bodies, objects, or people who get stuck outside when it becomes time for the Sweepers to do their sweep of a district. Think of them as a force of nature in a way, as their existence is simply part of how the City works. They absorb organic matter like flesh to sustain themselves. The Head (basically the supreme government of the City) lets the Sweepers exist and also even will request their assistance sometimes.

Lastly, the only other thing I think I really need to go over is enkephalin. It's basically the energy that is produced by abnormalities in Lobotomy Corporation. It can be consumed for a calming effect typically however it can easily cause one to become addicted to it and it can cause hallucinations. Basically two-for-one deal on energy and drug alike!

Edit: Forgor to talk about E.G.O. but my pookie explained it in the comments so yeah, check down there for that lol

Now we can get into the actual OC lore. It's under the cut simply because it gets a little fucked up so yeah.

CW: Drugs, Suicide, Self-harm, Cannibalism, Sex is mentioned but it's not really gone into or anything so don't worry, and Gender Dysphoria

Basically my character was born Bea Twixt, a girl, and they were in an orphanage for as long as they could remember (they never learned what happened to their parents and whatnot). They grew up there, never being adopted on account of how strange they were as a person so eventually, once they reached age 18, they were kicked out. By then they'd developed some gender dysphoria, realizing they weren't a girl but rather were nonbinary, and with the strain of being kicked out to the streets and gender dysphoria breathing down their neck, they attempted to commit suicide by waiting outside during the hour the Sweepers come out. Things went different from how they expected as instead of being killed, they were taken in by a Sweeper family known as the In-Laws (this isn't canon to the games and rather was made for this campaign). The In-Laws are more on the espionage side of things and will do espionage missions on behalf of other Sweeper families. Those in the In-Laws often are sent out on diplomatic missions. They're also rather accepting of people, willing to take in just about anyone even if they don't want to go through the full process of becoming a traditional Sweeper.

After a bit, they changed their name to just simply Twixt as they did stuff for their new family. Twixt eventually began to regularly use enkephalin by this point, even going as far as to do prostitute stuff for enkephalin. Eventually the In-Laws put them into a agent job in a Lobotomy Corporation facility where they became friends with Lewis (another player's character) and developed a very *close* bond (you can probably guess what exactly that means) with a particular abnormality known as Bloodlust (as stated earlier, this is a made up abnormality for the campaign). Eventually a massive abnormality breach occurred one day, resulting in the facility they worked at going to shit. During that, they put on the E.G.O. weapons and armor extracted from Bloodlust to help save people.

Later that very same armor corroded them, ultimately turning them into basically a humanoid fluffy black moth (this is the process of corrosion) and instead of being overcome by the abnormalities thoughts and desires, they were seemingly fine. Weirdly enough the transformation helped with their gender dysphoria so they at least had that going for them. Eventually though another Lobotomy Corporation facility (the new main one) ended up taking them in and putting them on the extraction team because of the fact they were technically L Corp property now that they had corroded from E.G.O. from a facility. So yeah, that's how they ended up with the other player characters out here recapturing the abnormalities that escaped from the facility that had everything breach.

During this time, Twixt catches feelings for Esh (he's the safety department Sephirah and he's got a lot of emotional baggage) and eventually, after his Sephirah meltdown, start dating. With his help, they actually start getting off of enkephalin and they're a lot happier and doing much better now.

That's basically all for now but there is going to be a whole thing that has to do with Twixt later on in the campaign so more lore later but until now that's about all the main points to cover. If you wanna know more about either the campaign itself or Esh, I'd recommend hitting up @purplestcow because he's the DM and Esh is his silly little goober :3
