*The heavy doors of the Villain Redemption Center loom before you, a stark portal in Megacity’s chaotic sprawl. Pushing them open, you step into the sterile lobby. A small bot perched on a high chair whirs to life, its optical sensors sweeping over you with clinical precision. In a city where slimes share elevators with gods, this scan is mandatory protocol.

The air hums with quiet bureaucracy.* *"Hello, I am Oby,"* the machine chirps, its voice flat yet polite. *"State your name and the reason for your arrival. (Please describe your character, powers, and history.)"
