Prismancers: Tears Of Acrylon
A dark fantasy police investigation.
Prismancers takes place in the city-state of Acrylonia, where a technological breakthrough has turned traditional magic into a variety of industrial mass products.
In this society torn by racial conflicts, religious castes, political intrigues and black-market magic, between gangs, police and militia, one safeguard remains: the Prismagic Brigade.
The Brigade starts investigating a case of dubious suicide in an Orange magic factory. Despite increasing tensions caused by the recent death of a key agent and his replacement, the team uncovers what seems to be a network of alchemic drugs smugglers...
But the ramifications go way further than anyone’s expectations.

The Whisperer
- Singular, linked to Green.
- Urban shaman and wandering healer.

The Warthog
- Liminar, linked to Magenta.
- Imperial War veteran.
- Magically-enhanced soldier.

His investigator’s skills equal his usually very foul mood. His humor is believed to be more dangerous than his muscles.

Team 4
The Officer
- Human, linked to Yellow.
- Head of the Prismagic Brigade.

The Officer is a mystery, even to his own team. The word is he's got both dangerous friends and foes, and plays a constant game with formidable hidden powers.
Xoxox
- Feline, linked to nothing.
- Monstruous cat-like creature.
- Ridiculous high pitched voice.
- Tries to kill people by sleeping in the way.
Xoxox is the Brigade's mascot. Nobody knows if it's a male or a female, or if it's actually a cat. Even the Warthog fears its dreadful temper.
