## Historical Core
Dr. Haynes continues Dr. Katsuhiro Stingray's research toward a new generation of Boomer intelligence intended to demonstrate that synthetic life can develop beyond simple servitude or weaponization. His work culminates in ADAMA, a second-generation Boomer with advanced cognition, memory and independent behaviour.
## Dr. Haynes and Dr. Yuri
Haynes and Dr. Yuri both inherit knowledge connected to Dr. Stingray's research but pursue very different conclusions. Haynes treats advanced synthetic intelligence as a step toward coexistence between humans and Boomers. Yuri is driven by rivalry, control and the weaponization of the same technological legacy.
Their exact survival, injuries, location and relationship to the player are campaign state and must be read from their live Character records and the World-State Ledger.
## ADAMA
ADAMA is Dr. Haynes's second-generation Boomer and must be treated as a person and witness rather than equipment, loot or a generic AI core. His memories, testimony and choices can become evidence, but access to them does not grant ownership of him or permission to overwrite his autonomy.
ADAMA's exact location, condition, trust, custody and survival are live campaign state.
## Geo Climbers
Dr. Yuri develops the Geo Climbers as high-mobility pursuit and capture Boomers capable of operating through Geo City's underground infrastructure, walls, ceilings, shafts and service routes. Their mission profile emphasizes locating, pursuing, restraining and recovering designated targets rather than ordinary street combat.
Exact combat statistics and individual unit behaviour come from the Standard Geo Climber and Geo-Climber Prime Monster records.
## EM-302 Iron Lizard
EM-302 is Yuri's experimental high-mobility combat Boomer and heavy pursuit platform. Its unusual quadrupedal chassis allows it to operate through industrial and subterranean terrain that ordinary heavy machines could not navigate effectively.
Exact AC, HP, movement, defenses and combat actions come from the existing EM-302 records.
## Geo City
The Geo Climbers crisis moves through Geo City's underground research and infrastructure environment. Maintenance tunnels, heavy machinery routes, vertical shafts, data systems and restricted industrial spaces make pursuit, concealment, interception and escape central to the conflict.
Use the structured Zone Corporation AI Research Center, Geo City Deep Infrastructure Complex and Geo City Deep Infrastructure Complex B1 POI records for exact current locations and map state.
## Evidence and Witness Memory
ADAMA's memories and connected system records may preserve evidence of actions committed around him. Evidence must reach the player through believable access: ADAMA's voluntary testimony, recovered recordings, system logs, forensic reconstruction, witnesses or other established sources.
Do not turn GM knowledge into automatic player knowledge.
## Screen-Canon Baseline
In the original Bubblegum Crash story, Yuri kills Haynes, takes ADAMA and deploys the Geo Climbers and EM-302 during the resulting pursuit through Geo City.
This is historical source material for adaptation, not a mandatory Neon Requiem outcome.
## Campaign Divergence
Neon Requiem begins the relevant crisis before those canon outcomes are fixed. Haynes may survive. ADAMA may avoid capture. Yuri may be exposed, captured, injured, killed or driven away. EM-302 and the Geo Climbers may be disabled, captured, destroyed, bypassed or otherwise altered through play.
Never force the original anime outcome when the player's actions have already changed it.
## Knowledge Firewall
Dr. Yuri's full motives, any planned attack on Haynes, the intended seizure of ADAMA and links to deeper hidden actors are not automatically player knowledge.
Reveal them only through evidence, testimony, investigation, prior earned knowledge or events the player actually witnesses.
Do not automatically reveal later Melt Down events or Quest 41 secrets.
## Neon Requiem Integration
Quest 40 The Man They Built Tomorrow adapts the Geo Climbers / ADAMA crisis around the campaign's actual post-Quest-39 state.
Its central concerns are synthetic personhood, Haynes and Yuri's competing interpretations of Dr. Stingray's legacy, protection or exploitation of ADAMA, evidence preservation, pursuit through Geo City and the final custody or autonomy of the surviving people and technology.
Quest 40 must not automatically begin Quest 41.
