Project Melody Wiki

Project Melody is the the current project name given to the Unforgotten project. Unforgotten is a series based around the adventures of Tomoya Kurosawa, a Synthokinetic Mage who specializes in Sonokinesis (Sound Magic), set in the fictional Southern California county of San Lorenzo, California. Tomoya is apart of a mercenary group named the White Hornets, and is often helping out the group whether it is everyday errands, or large scale missions such as for example going against nefarious crimes happening across the county, including the secret crimes done by numerous corporations that have dominated the city of San Lorenzo itself and its surrounding areas. Tomoya is joined along with four of his friends Vivian Santos, a Pyrokinetic Mage, Miles DaCosta, a Geokinetic Mage, Rachel Yoon, an Aquakinetic Mage, and Marco Caldeira, an Aerokinetic Mage. Other friends and other allies join Tomoya's side, together they form an alliance dedicated to freeing the people of San Lorenzo County from the clutches of the corporate, political, and criminal groups that have gained control of the general area.

The world of Project Melody/Unforgotten takes place in a reality that is mostly similar to the world and reality we currently live in now only with a couple of major altering events in history as well as technology. Technology is more advanced in the world of Unforgotten, such as electric, solar, and geothermal powered vehicles being widespread, but still not as dominant as the oil fossil fueled powered cars that are still used until this day. Another aspect of advanced technology is the usage of Mage Technology, which is technology that utilizes a concentrated amount of mage powers which is used for numerous purposes, usually by governments and their military, but as well as by corporations, education systems, and the common people. Advanced smart technology is as well widespread throughout the world, outside of smartphones and smart watches notable examples are the usage of Smart Mirrors, Smart Glasses, Smart Showers, Smart Windows, and more. The government, such as the United States government, has taken full advantage of mage technology and has used it to further advanced their military and space programs. As the space programs (such as NASA for example) flourished because of this type of technology that came into fruition around the 1920s and especially during World War 2 and the Cold War, bases were successfully installed on the surface of the Moon. There is as well currently a floating base on the clouds of Venus, and there are plans for a base in Mars to exist in the upcoming years. Military technology is very advanced in this world thanks to mage technology, various machines designed for defense and offense have been produced and assisted thanks to this special kind of technology; examples include large machines resembling mecha which are capable of a number of actions with the weapons they are provided or are built in. Numerous machinery produced by the government or corporations that have received assistance from the government are also capable of producing magic thanks to the mage powers that are concentrated and built inside its build, artificial intelligence in the world of Unforgotten is drastically more advanced which has led to much skepticism by the general population. The usage of artificial intelligence in both leisurely and military settings are both taken advantage of by the characters featured in the game, as well as other factions including other mercenary groups and terrorist organizations.

One very interesting invention of Mage Technology is the usage of everyday objects and weapons infused with magical abilities. These devices have a small capsule containing a concentrated amount of magic within them that are implanted within the device itself. The devices provide an opportunity for Humans not born with any mage power whatsoever to wield the magic that is implanted within the device. Connie uses these devices she had smuggled in order for her to use all kinds of powers that come as useful for Tomoya and the rest of his allies. Mages themselves can also use the devices to use a power they don't wield or haven't learned any techniques on. Even though mages can duplicate their power to give onto someone else with the help of a ritual, the devices are very assisting at helping just about anyone wield any power at their disposal. Tomoya can, for example, put on a bracelet infused with Cryokinetic energy, and as long as the bracelet remains he will be able to have complete control over Cryokinetic abilities. Haruki Kurosawa, Tomoya's father, is knowledgeable on these kinds of devices as he as well uses them thanks to the company he works for handing them out to him, especially when he serves a mission for the corporation. Examples include his knowledge on controlling Pyrokinesis as he uses a belt infused with the power which helps him have full control over Pyrokinetic abilities; however he does not need any devices to control Sonokinesis as he has had previously done a ritual with his wife, at the time girlfriend, Mayumi, which lets him be able to use the power at his own will.

During the events unfolding in Project Melody, Tomoya can as well recruit various characters to join the White Hornets, and use them at any time in the open world or even during select missions such as side quests, sometimes main story quests as well. Notable characters that Tomoya encounters and befriends throughout the story is Connie Chung, who is not a Mage herself, but is highly skilled and knowledgeable in Mage Techology; Alice Orozco, who is also not a Mage herself, but is skilled in armed weaponry; Cecilia Rousseau, a Hallucikinetic Mage, Robin Florentino, an Oneirokinetic Mage, Marianne Williamson, a Psychikinetic Mage, Amber and Jacob Metaxsas, both of who are Pathokinetic Mages, Chelsea Manukyan, an Electrokinetic Mage, Derek Yoon, a Cryokinetic Mage, Katie Peluso, a Lumokinetic Mage, Tyler Sollas, a Typhokinetic Mage, Iris Soroka, a GravikineticMage, Max Peters, and Peter Wozny who are also not Mages themselves, but excel in studying magic and handling scientific originated weaponry involving robotics, nanomachines, bioweaponry, androids, and such.

Over the course of Project Melody/Unforgotten's story, the characters such as the main five of the group for example, undergo numerous changes in their development as a human being as they start to discover who they truly are deep inside. The topics associated within the story go into philosophical subjects such as consciousness, existence, and the universe itself. Examples involving these subjects include the philosophies expressed in Hinduism and Buddhism that have been prevalent for thousands of years, and have been expressed towards Western audiences with the aid of individuals such as Alan Watts, Richard "Ram Dass" Alpert, and Eckhart Tolle. Psychedelic topics are as well a part of the general story of Unforgotten, many of these ideas have been expressed by individuals such as Terence McKenna as psychedelics ranging from natural substances such as Psilocybin Mushrooms and N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) to man-made substances such as LSD/Acid. The knowledge gained from the experiences after consuming these substances often give the consumer insight and answers on about themselves on who and what they truly are and everything in relation to existence, the universe, and reality itself. These experiences have led individuals to realize and become aware on how they are the entire universe experiencing itself, and how they are a part of the whole and their actions are what the whole universe is doing at that moment just like how a wave is what the whole ocean is doing. They realize that all life forms in existence are all one, sharing one consciousness, and that everything is connected, despite everything appearing separate on a surface level due to the biological build of Human Beings. The illusion of separation is revealed as the veil concealing reality is lifted, gifting people knowledge on their true nature. All is One; the biological system, the brain, and the Earth itself, work on the same frequency. One notable frequency is 432hz, the frequency of Earth and all organic bodies.

"All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves." -Bill Hicks
