WHAT DO YOU SEE IN YOUR REFLECTION?

In a world where human trauma manifests as Grievances, the greatest danger isn't what's on the headlines: it's what lurks inside ourselves.

Benjamin wishes he were invisible, mostly so he could stop navigating social interactions that are just as painful as fighting monsters. To the world, he's an amputee survivor; to himself, a rotting zombie just trying to blend in. Despite his desperate search for normalcy, he's stuck in a reality where everyone seems to want him-either alive as a pawn or dead as a target.

Akane thinks she's always right, blaming everyone but herself. A force of nature from Hawaii, she hides a crying child behind a mask of creative insults and the firm belief that there is no problem in life that cannot be solved with a spear. She'll stop at nothing to find the truth, even if she has to break the rules.

When the "Backstage" bleeds into the neglected town of Antioch, a pacifist fighting his own reflection and a weapon fighting the world collide.

Self-Image is a sarcastic and cynical look at the monsters we create, the secrets we're too afraid to share, and the fractured world we live in.
