In the year 2097, Omega City never sleeps—its neon streets glowing brighter than the sun, its shadows darker than the void.
Aiden Crowe, a low-level cybernetic repair runner, dies in a mysterious data-storm that wipes half the city’s grid.
But instead of disappearing… he comes back.
As something else.
A living anomaly.
A digital ghost.
A being that exists between the physical world and the quantum net.
The Neon Phantom.
With the forbidden Protocol Zero awakened inside him, Aiden gains supernatural powers far beyond technology—phasing through walls, hijacking machines with a glance, hunting creatures that shouldn’t exist in a city of metal and light.
But powers come with enemies.
Megacorporations want to dissect him.
Cyber-priests call him the harbinger of a digital apocalypse.
And something ancient, something not human, is watching him through the code.
As supernatural entities leak into the neon world, Aiden must uncover the truth behind his death, the Protocol hidden in his body, and the origin of the city’s growing anomalies.
Because Omega City is dying.
And only a phantom can save it.

A mega-metropolis divided into three layers:


 – Corporate elite, floating towers, drone highways.


 – Neon markets, cyber-streets, mods & implants.


 – Dark alleys, failed experiments, supernatural hotspots.


This world is breaking from the inside—and the cracks glow neon.
