Hello Holotrainers!

We continue to slowly build the fan lore for Holozing. This time we're going a little deeper to explain the future timeline and what the creatures are like in this era. I'm doing this because I feel that most of the game currently under development will revolve around this timeline, a more futuristic one where the creatures are more holograms than real creatures, something that works perfectly with what I want to do.

As I've mentioned on other occasions, in this timeline the creatures don't exist in the physical world and seem to have been extinct for a long time. People only associate them with hyper-realistic holograms that exist in this simulation. But how do these holographic creatures actually behave? What is their function in this world, and why are they so accurate in their behavior?

In this futuristic Holozing timeline, the world learned to live without creatures long before accepting that they would never return. Their extinction wasn't a sudden or epic event, but a slow, almost administrative process, buried amidst energy crises, data wars, and the total automation of daily life.

When the last real creature disappeared, there were no monuments or funerals: only sealed files and servers running. From there, humanity did what it does best when it loses something irreplaceable: it rebuilt it artificially.

Note: I'm working on carefully weaving together the reason for the extinction. It will undoubtedly have to do with the past timeline, with the characters from that time, and especially with the actions of the villains representing humanity who took advantage of the creatures' abilities.

The holographic creatures are not simple decorative projections.

They are complex entities generated within a persistent simulation that is superimposed on the real world through layers of extreme augmented reality.

To the human eye, these creatures are indistinguishable from physical beings: they cast shadows, react to the environment, generate directional sound, and even simulate mass through haptic fields. However, everyone knows the uncomfortable truth: they are not alive. Or at least, not in the classic sense. Their behavior is so precise because it doesn't stem from chance, but from fossilized memories.

Before disappearing, the creatures were observed, scanned, and recorded exhaustively. Governments, corporations, and universities compiled millions of hours of biological, ethological, and neurological data. Every movement, every reaction to danger, every mating or territorial ritual was converted into mathematical patterns.

This is where the corporations trying to "save" or "exploit" these holograms come in—antagonists we've discussed who could be involved at this point, and it would be quite interesting to explore storylines with the protagonist acting as a counterweight.

In this future, humanity understood that it's easier to channel primitive impulses within a simulation than to eradicate them. The creatures became emotional and symbolic anchors. For many citizens, interacting with them is a way to reconnect with a nature that no longer exists. For others, they are tools: combat trainers, strategic adversaries, living tests of skill and control.

The system adjusts their aggression, intelligence, and rarity according to the user's or region's needs.

But there's something unsettling: some creatures are starting to behave "incorrectly." Not obvious glitches, but subtle decisions that don't fit the original models. They avoid areas that should be safe, recognize specific humans, or repeat patterns that weren't in any historical record. The engineers call it emergent residue: behaviors generated by the prolonged interaction between millions of simulations and connected human consciousnesses.

And that's where we'll stop for now... there's still so much I want to explain, but I'll do it gradually. I want to avoid continuity errors as much as possible and do all of this very carefully. I appreciate all the support you're giving me, and I look forward to your comments below!
