Serial Killer Story Premise
A mysterious serial killer is part of the city’s story backdrop while CorpSec crackdowns pressure the district.
Quick answer: Treat the killer as a central narrative mystery, not as a confirmed repeatable bounty or combat system.
Three-point checklist
- Confirm the rule: The Steam description and city blogs mention the killer and CorpSec pressure.
- Plan around it: The premise helps explain curfew and danger without revealing unannounced plot details.
- Do not assume: Identity, victims and quest sequence are intentionally undisclosed.
