==Setting==
The series is set in a fantasy medieval kingdom where humans, beasts, and demi-humans (half-human beasts) coexist. Airships roam the skies, railroads sweep the landscapes, and war-torn ruins have now been converted into fun-filled amusement parks. Magic exists in various forms and humans are able to utilize its powers through training. The Kingdom has just celebrated fifteen years of peace, where humans were the victors of a long-fought struggle against the invading Demon Army. A hero had emerged in the eleventh hour and single-handedly vanquished the Demon King, ending the bloodshed between the two armies and saving the Kingdom from annihilation. 
In these prosperous times, however, roving adventurers still form in various groups and roam the land to fight beasts, but merely to make a decent living — magicians, swordsmen, healers, treasure hunters, bards, and even beastmasters are often in demand within the Kingdom. Currency is given to them by the Kingdom in gold (G), where 1G is equivalent to 120 yen (or $1 US dollar). A king carries the central authority over all affairs and is aided by various Kingdom officials, including a high priest.
Although humans, beasts, and demi-humans all live together, they do not share the same language and are often unable to communicate with one another. And in a world where spiritual entities interact with the material, it is known that all human beings possess a soul: a non-material substance that binds their existence in the physical world. If an individual becomes critically wounded from battle and on the verge of death, the soul may escape the damaged body. It is the job of priests to resuscitate such a body in order to prevent its soul from "leaking" out, and ultimately rendering an individual lifeless. 
Despite harmony among all living creatures, there are some who believe a union between humans and demi-humans can only be precarious at best, and dangerous at worst. 
===RPG Real Estate===
The RPG Real Estate agency is an extension of the services provided by the Kingdom. With its office located in the central business district, the role of RPG Real Estate is to provide townspeople housing options suited to their individual needs. When needed, the agency can also be used directly by the Kingdom to settle housing matters during a crisis, where refugees, perhaps numbering in the hundreds, are in need of a roof over their heads. All requests are made in advance by phone or drop-in visits.
==Characters==
The shortness of the characters' given names is likely a homage to early RPGs, where names are limited to only 4 phonetic symbols. With the exception of Kotone and other quasi-Japanese characters, all names are stylized in katakana.
