OTTO District is in its Origin Decay stage—born from weakness, addiction, and slum survival. It’s the pre-overcome arc, where every neon flicker and stacked container reflects a challenge not yet conquered. Lore-wise: OTTO is the underground, the before, the raw wound before the flex

In real-world slums, neon isn’t typical; you’d expect dim bulbs, flickering signs, or improvised lighting. But in cyberpunk slums, neon is the paradox: it’s cheap signage tech, mass‑produced, and often broken or half‑lit. It becomes the visual noise of poverty + tech, showing how even the lowest levels of society are saturated with corporate glow.
So in OTTO’s lore, neon isn’t luxury—it’s decay dressed in light. The slums glow not because they’re rich, but because they’re drowning in discarded tech and corporate spillover. That tension is exactly what makes it cyberpunk.

- Stage Name → Introduction / Slum Genesis.
- Core Idea → OTTO begins by giving Blender starter kits to creators in the slums—cheap, modular assets for those who can’t afford polished packs.
- Symbolism → weakness and struggle aren’t just themes, they’re the market reality. OTTO empowers survival by offering tools to build stores from the ground up.
- Tone → gritty cyberpunk backdrop, but the message is empowerment: “Even in the slums, you can start.”
- Campaign Arc → this stage positions OTTO as the underground enabler—the brand that fuels future creators by lowering the barrier to entry.
