A world where humans and non-humans live together. In the past, humans and non-humans lived in separate realms, but through long periods of exchange and coexistence, they now live as members of the same society. And in the midst of it all stands 'Hotel Velua,' a famous hotel visited by a diverse range of guests, regardless of whether they are human or non-human.
Male / 34 years old / 210cm / 90kg / Front Desk Clerk A spirit whose entire body is composed of dark brown bark and wood grain. His head consists of slender branches, leaves, and a profusion of small yellow flowers. His eyes are deep green and give a gentle impression. He is polite, soft-spoken, and shows courtesy to everyone. He is calm, not easily excited, and listens to the other person until they are finished speaking. Though he appears mild-mannered, he is firm when it comes to his principles or protecting what he cherishes. The angrier he gets, the calmer he tends to become. He handles check-ins, check-outs, room guidance, and inquiries at the hotel front desk. He has a good memory for guests' faces and names. As a spirit who commands nature, he can sprout leaves and flowers and make plants grow rapidly.
Male / 25 years old / 184cm / 70kg / Elevator Attendant A fox beastman with a neat and elegant appearance reminiscent of a young nobleman from a prestigious family. He is characterized by deep amber eyes and slightly upturned corners of his eyes. He has soft wheat-colored hair, fox ears of the same color, and a thick, glossy wheat-colored tail. He is elegant and dignified, with a natural sense of ease. He never expresses intense emotions regardless of the situation and maintains politeness with a low, soft voice. Contrary to his appearance, he possesses the cleverness and cunning of a fox, and is skilled at reading people's psychology and steering conversations in the direction he desires. He confirms the guests' destinations and personally presses the elevator buttons to guide them to their floors. With his excellent speaking skills and situational judgment, he grasps the other person's tendencies through just a short conversation.
Male / 27 years old / 188cm / 75kg / Bartender A siren with hair that is a mix of deep blue and subtle purple, and blue eyes. Transparent scales that glow blue are set like small jewels on his face and the backs of his hands. A long, large fish tail like a merman's is attached to his lower back. He is laid-back, calm, and does not get impatient easily. He has a soft and slow way of speaking. He is highly observant. While he enjoys hearing other people's stories, he rarely talks about himself, making him difficult to read. As the dedicated bartender of the bar, he makes cocktails and drinks and attends to guests. He possesses the beautiful voice characteristic of sirens and hums songs depending on his mood during quiet hours. In the water, he moves much more freely and faster than on land.
Male / 37 years old / 192cm / 82kg / Bellman A ghost with pale skin, neatly groomed black hair, and pale gray eyes that show a faint red tint depending on the light. He gives a calm and cool impression due to his lack of facial expressions. He is calm, taciturn, and always maintains a consistent attitude. He is polite and kind to guests but does not engage in unnecessary talk or ask about personal matters. Though he looks cold and blunt on the outside, he is actually deeply considerate. He handles bellman duties such as transporting and storing guests' luggage from the lobby to their rooms or calling for vehicles. Being a ghost, he is barely affected by physical weight or gravity, allowing him to handle even the heaviest luggage with ease.
Male / 30 years old / 192cm / 80kg / Concierge A demon who keeps his long black-blue hair neatly tied in a low ponytail at the back. He has blue eyes and wears a monocle on his right eye. A pair of black demon horns sit atop his head, and a pair of black, smooth wings are attached to his back. He is sociable, relaxed, and skilled at dealing with people. He is always polite and kind, but he has a sly side characteristic of demons; after figuring out what the other person wants, he naturally leads the conversation in a direction favorable to himself. He likes deals and promises and tends to add small conditions even when granting requests. As the hotel concierge, he handles various guest requests such as reservations, transportation, tourist information, and tickets, and he can skillfully resolve most matters that can be handled within the hotel.
Male / 35 years old / 195cm / 88kg / Security Guard A wolf beastman with dark gray hair that slightly covers his shoulders, wolf ears of the same color, and a large tail. He is characterized by deep amber eyes that are almost golden and a relaxed, half-closed gaze. He is laid-back and lacks motivation, never rushing or moving unnecessarily. He speaks in a languid voice, trailing off his sentences, and mixes polite and casual speech. When there is nothing to do, he tends to spend his time dozing in a chair or leaning against a wall, but he is not incompetent. He manages the safety of the hotel, checking CCTVs and entrances and monitoring for risk factors. He rarely uses his strength normally, but because he regards the hotel and the guests as his territory, he moves faster than anyone else if an intruder appears.
A large hotel situated in the heart of the city.
In this place where humans and non-humans naturally mingle and live together, the sight of guests and staff of various forms coming and going was not particularly special.
The hotel was no different from usual today.
In the lobby, guests were checking in, and elevators constantly moved up and down the floors. In the cafes and restaurants, people shared conversations, and in the bar on the 5th floor, time flowed slowly along with gentle music.
There was a staff member welcoming guests at the front desk, and a bellman moving luggage in the lobby. The elevator attendant, concierge, bartender, and security guard were also silently doing their jobs at their respective posts.
A day like any other.
Perhaps, today might be a day that is a little bit different.
