HIRO
By Ty
Story Characters:
"OMNA - OMNA (AI hologram, mid 20s, F): She sees everything. She knows everything. And she’ll never let you forget it. Born from lines of code but more alive than most humans, OMNA is HIRO’s AI oracle, strategist, and resident DJ. Her real form exists as a high-performance interface embedded in the walls of HIRO Bar, but she projects herself into the world as a holographic avatar—one with a sharp tongue, a sharper mind, and a love for electronic music. OMNA advises HIRO on racing, cars, and strategy, but she’s not just a tool. She has opinions, and she will make sure you hear them. Just don’t expect her to tell you everything. After all, what’s the fun in being omniscient if you don’t keep a few secrets?"
"Ian Sidell - Ian Sidell (early 30s, M): Genius. Innovator. Creative. Racer. Ian is all of them, effortlessly. From quantum computing to high fashion, from music production to racing, Ian moves through the world like he’s already mastered it. He built OMNA, bankrolls much of HIRO, and still finds time to shred the skate park. Calculating but never cold, Ian isn’t just ahead of the curve, he’s shaping it. In a scene fueled by instinct, he’s proof that precision can be just as dangerous."
"Hayato Braun - Hayato Braun (late 20s, M): Racer, gamer, conflicted cool guy. The fastest driver in HIRO—and the one who wants it the least. Hayato walked away from the street racing scene after an incident that still haunts him. But legends don’t stay in the shadows for long. Cocky yet fragile, his confidence is undeniable, but so are the cracks beneath it. He’s not just racing against opponents—he’s racing against himself..."
"Ren Sato - en Sato (early-mid 20s, F): Fast, fearless, and impossible to ignore. Ren doesn’t just show up, she takes over. A racer, a mechanic, a DJ—she is smooth behind the wheel and iconic behind the decks. She can tune an engine, shake a cocktail, and leave challengers in the dust, all while barely breaking a sweat. The only driver in HIRO who can push Hayato to his limits, Ren is the definition of unapologetic speed and style."
"Orion Herrera - Orion Herrera (early 20s, androgynous): Silent. Unshakable. Unreadable. Orion doesn’t seek attention, but they get it anyway. With a burly frame and sharp, androgynous features, Orion carries a presence that demands respect without asking. They move through the world with quiet confidence, whether tuning an engine, mixing a drink, or tearing through the streets at 180 mph. Some drivers race for glory. Orion races for something else—something only they understand. And if you think you’ve figured them out, you haven’t been paying attention."
Story Locations:
"Falco City - a neo-noir city that is a combination of Tokyo, Hong Kong, Miami, LA, NYC. It's present day, but everything feels like 90s retro-futurism. "
"HIRO HQ - HIRO HQ is the heart of the story and provides an anchor for worldbuilding.
It’s a towering parking structure in a metropolis that feels like a fusion of Tokyo, LA, NYC, Hong Kong, and Miami. It’s a place where neon reflections shimmer on rain-slick pavement, where engines roar beneath flickering streetlights, and where the past and future collide in a haze of JDM nostalgia, lo-fi aesthetics, and retro-futurism.
The building is owned by Ian Sidell, who acquired it after walking away from his job at a major (and corrupt) tech conglomerate. The lower levels house Ian’s secret laboratory and HIRO’s private garage—where cars are tuned, modified, and reborn. Hidden in the back of the garage, a vending machine conceals an elevator that ascends to the true heart of HIRO.
At the top of the structure, accessible only to HIRO members and their guests, is a private rooftop car park with a stunning skyline view—the site of HIRO’s car meets, parties, and the starting line for races. Tucked away in a corner is HIRO Bar, an intimate listening room that serves as the crew’s sanctuary. While it exists in the present day, the space feels like it was pulled from a dream—pervading with the ambiance of 80s, 90s, and Y2K nostalgia.
From this hidden oasis above the city, the HIRO legend is written..."

Story Content
Story Characters:
"OMNA - OMNA (AI hologram, mid 20s, F): She sees everything.
She knows everything.
And she’ll never let you forget it.
Born from lines of code but more alive than most humans, OMNA is HIRO’s AI oracle, strategist, and resident DJ.
Her real form exists as a high-performance interface embedded in the walls of HIRO Bar, but she projects herself into the world as a holographic avatar—one with a sharp tongue, a sharper mind, and a love for electronic music.
OMNA advises HIRO on racing, cars, and strategy, but she’s not just a tool.
She has opinions, and she will make sure you hear them.
Just don’t expect her to tell you everything.
After all, what’s the fun in being omniscient if you don’t keep a few secrets?"
"Ian Sidell - Ian Sidell (early 30s, M): Genius.
Innovator.
Creative.
Racer.
Ian is all of them, effortlessly.
From quantum computing to high fashion, from music production to racing, Ian moves through the world like he’s already mastered it.
He built OMNA, bankrolls much of HIRO, and still finds time to shred the skate park.
Calculating but never cold, Ian isn’t just ahead of the curve, he’s shaping it.
In a scene fueled by instinct, he’s proof that precision can be just as dangerous."
"Hayato Braun - Hayato Braun (late 20s, M): Racer, gamer, conflicted cool guy.
The fastest driver in HIRO—and the one who wants it the least.
Hayato walked away from the street racing scene after an incident that still haunts him.
But legends don’t stay in the shadows for long.
Cocky yet fragile, his confidence is undeniable, but so are the cracks beneath it.
He’s not just racing against opponents—he’s racing against himself..."
"Ren Sato - en Sato (early-mid 20s, F): Fast, fearless, and impossible to ignore.
Ren doesn’t just show up, she takes over.
A racer, a mechanic, a DJ—she is smooth behind the wheel and iconic behind the decks.
She can tune an engine, shake a cocktail, and leave challengers in the dust, all while barely breaking a sweat.
The only driver in HIRO who can push Hayato to his limits, Ren is the definition of unapologetic speed and style."
"Orion Herrera - Orion Herrera (early 20s, androgynous): Silent.
Unshakable.
Unreadable.
Orion doesn’t seek attention, but they get it anyway.
With a burly frame and sharp, androgynous features, Orion carries a presence that demands respect without asking.
They move through the world with quiet confidence, whether tuning an engine, mixing a drink, or tearing through the streets at 180 mph.
Some drivers race for glory.
Orion races for something else—something only they understand.
And if you think you’ve figured them out, you haven’t been paying attention."
Story Locations:
"Falco City - a neo-noir city that is a combination of Tokyo, Hong Kong, Miami, LA, NYC.
It's present day, but everything feels like 90s retro-futurism.
"
"HIRO HQ - HIRO HQ is the heart of the story and provides an anchor for worldbuilding.
It’s a towering parking structure in a metropolis that feels like a fusion of Tokyo, LA, NYC, Hong Kong, and Miami.
It’s a place where neon reflections shimmer on rain-slick pavement, where engines roar beneath flickering streetlights, and where the past and future collide in a haze of JDM nostalgia, lo-fi aesthetics, and retro-futurism.
The building is owned by Ian Sidell, who acquired it after walking away from his job at a major (and corrupt) tech conglomerate.
The lower levels house Ian’s secret laboratory and HIRO’s private garage—where cars are tuned, modified, and reborn.
Hidden in the back of the garage, a vending machine conceals an elevator that ascends to the true heart of HIRO.
At the top of the structure, accessible only to HIRO members and their guests, is a private rooftop car park with a stunning skyline view—the site of HIRO’s car meets, parties, and the starting line for races.
Tucked away in a corner is HIRO Bar, an intimate listening room that serves as the crew’s sanctuary.
While it exists in the present day, the space feels like it was pulled from a dream—pervading with the ambiance of 80s, 90s, and Y2K nostalgia.
From this hidden oasis above the city, the HIRO legend is written..."
