the depth EXPLORER
origin story
In the cold, steel underbelly of <literally enter any city that thinks they’re the centre of the world>, where the city’s depths hold secrets that the surface could never imagine, Fathom emerged from the shadows of forgotten tunnels and abandoned subway lines. This city, known for its towering skyline, hides another world below—one of dark corners and deeper mysteries, where Fathom makes their home.
Fathom’s mentors were the echoes of forgotten conversations, the cold drafts that whispered secrets from one end of the tunnel to the other, and the lost souls who wandered too deep and never found their way back. From these, Fathom learned the value of exploring the depths—not just of the physical world, but of the mind and soul as well.
Fathom’s skill is in their ability to navigate these depths, to seek out the truths that lie buried beneath the surface, often uncomfortable and unsettling, but always necessary. They do so with a determined calm, knowing that the only way to truly understand the world is to dive into its darkest corners, unafraid of what they might find.
Fathom often seeks out Mire, the Inertia Sentinel, in the deepest, most forgotten parts of the city. Together, they explore the places where time seems to stand still, Fathom pushing forward into the unknown, while Mire sinks further into the weight of what has been left behind.
