The Past
---------
At the beginning of time in this parallel world called Phaenon, the
demons of the Last Circle, after centuries of fierce combats, were
finally conquered by the humans. Against the Infernal Hordes of the
demon Astaroth, one man showed exceptional courage and intelligence.
Kushulainn was his name.
In order to help him conquer Evil, all the wizards from the Ancient
Times decided to seal their souls inside his legendary sword Barkaya'l.
In this way they gave the weapon a magical power sufficient to
eliminate Astaroth forever. But the spell would keep them prisoners
within the blade until the demon died or the blade was shattered.
At the head of the human armies, Kushulainn decimated the Infernal
Legions. Hacking away daily at multitudes of incubuses and succubuses,
he covered Phaenon with their foul blood. At the height of his combats
he hunted down Astaroth and confronted him in singular combat.
Their duel lasted seven days and seven nights. In the morning of the
eighth day, the humans finally dared to come near. Astaroth was lying
there, inanimate, on the dirty ground. But Kushulainn had disappeared.
They called out for him, searched in the rubble and the surrounding
forest, without any luck. Hurriedly they made a cage of Apylande and
locked the demon inside it.Then they threw it in a pool of cooling
lava. The golden prison slowly faded into the depths of the ground.
No one ever saw Kushulainn again, nor ever found out what happened to
him.
His exploits were sung and his name was blessed a thousand times. He
became a myth, a legend, until finally he was forgotten. Several
hundred years later the only thing remaining of humanity's savior was a
vague recollection, something about an ancient hero, although people
wondered if he ever really had existed.
Once the combat had ended, Kushulainn had collapsed from exhaustion and
fallen into the river Dray'n. The river then carried him to the land
called Mahahaleel. When he regained consciousness, he realized that he
had failed at his destroying Astaroth and would never again be able to
combat him because the demon was now a prisoner within the bowels of
the earth.
Astaroth had the advantage of being immortal.Kushulainn retired to the
sanctuary of Mahahaleel with his legendary sword Barkaya'l as his only
companion. There in that timeless island he has been waiting for a
thousand eternities for someone to come and request the magic
sword, in order to take the combat up again with Astaroth. Only then
will he be able to find the tranquillity that comes with death.
No one knows where Kushulainn's Sanctuary is. The only thing said about
it in the Book of Nout is, to get there, one must cross the territory
of the Tormented Souls. There is where the spirits wander, the ones
that Kushulainn liberated from Astaroth's grasp yet who can still not
forget their torment. Since that time they have been protecting their
liberator's sanctuary, so that his rest may be peaceful.
Millions of years later, while Kushulainn was still waiting for the one
who would be worthy to carry Barkaya'l, the demonic spirit Astaroth was
once again wandering the surface of Phaenon.
The Present
-----------
The planet is going through a terrible glacial era, and the extinction
of its only sun has rendered all life on the surface of Phaenon
impossible. In order to survive the eternal night and permanently
freezing temperatures, the population has taken shelter in five cities,
each encased in a crystal dome.
At the time of your arrival in this universe, a gigantic central
computer known as Ix presides over the city of Omikron. In its
virtually infinite memory are concentrated all of the data from the
entire galaxy, collected by its numerous sensors. Using this
information, Ix is better able to manage the interests of the human
race.
Ix was installed in the heart of the city in a sprawling palace
inhabited only by the machine. While constructing the building, the men
dug down and accidentally uncovered Astaroth's cage. The demons that
had followed their master to his prison instantly took possession of
the unlucky workers who had liberated them. Then, they discreetly
dispersed themselves among the population where they progressively
captured souls or took on a human form in order to spread death more
quickly.
But Astaroth, Prince of the demons, had bigger plans. He secretly
seized the Ix computer and swore his revenge. He would conquer not only
this planet, but also spread his reign over the entire universe,to
avenge himself of those who had chased him away.In order to reach his
goal, he would need to reconstruct his former power that had been
reduced to nothing in the centuries he had been locked away.
For this he would need souls. Millions of souls. But not those of the
shadows of humans who roamed this world. Faded and withered, they would
never bring enough strength. No, he needed souls from another universe,
a parallel universe.
Astaroth had his servants build him a Reservoir of Souls. The souls
gathered there would endure the most excruciating pain, and from their
infinite suffering Astaroth would amass his strength. But, in order to
attract souls from another universe, he needed to lure them into a
trap. So he came up with Omikron. Through computers using this game, he
could trap players from our dimension by feigning to ask for their
help. Once they accept to put their soul in the body he offers them,
they can cross the breach. Then a demon can capture them, suck out
their soul and bring it back to him.
just a few more souls are all that is needed before the Reservoir of
Souls will be full and the Prince of the demons can finally step out of
the shadows to dominate the entire galaxy. Later, he will even be able
to conquer the parallel universes that provided him with his stock of
souls.
The City of Omikron
-------------------
At this time, humanity is stagnating in a sort of lethargy. Having
reached an advanced level of technology, people have begun to live
mindlessly and to fall progressively into a state of opulent decadence.
In Omikron, where the adventure takes place, the population was
concerned only with living a good life, thus turned a blind eye to the
secret plot that was unfolding in the bowels of the city.From the
strange Legatee Angus Reshev, plenipotentiary of a totalitarian
government, to Tolric Graem, High Priest of the mysterious religion of
the Green Book, to Cliff Humboldt, chief of a private police using
every possible method to track the movements and activities of the
citizens, everyone seems to be pursuing some obscure goal.
The Trusts play an essential role in the life of the city. Long
standing rivals, Tetra Inc. and Khonsu Ltd. are waging a merciless war
against one another for a commercial monopoly, despite the fact that no
one really knows who is behind them and what they stand for. They have
become so strong that not even the law can touch them.
They are also in charge of organizing retreats on the far planet of
Euralys. Due to overpopulation, every individual over the age of 40 is
required to leave Phaenon and go into retirement on Euralys. But who
knows what really becomes of these people? Are they really on this
paradise planet? And if so, why hasn't someone ever heard from a friend
or relative who has left?
While in the disturbing city of Omikron, people continue to live a good
worry-free life, underneath Ix's palace, Astaroth, the Prince of
Darkness, pursues his evil work. In order to continue gathering more
and more souls, Thagout, the most malicious of all demons, was named
general of the Infernal Legions. Soon his master will have recovered
his former power.
The Legend of Boz
------------------
Boz was the most famous pirate on the Multiplan. He knew the network by
heart and got a sly pleasure from foiling Ix's attempts to identify
him. All those in Omikron who have touched a Multiplan terminal, even
if only once, know who Boz is. His courage, freedom and audacity were
always an example for all pirates, until one night when his world
turned upside down.
While Boz was working on his computer, destroying some business
programs in the Trusts' computers, a demon broke into his apartment and
leapt upon him. The struggle was short. The incubus played with Boz
like a cat toys with a mouse before killing it. Boz fell to the ground.
He who had never believed in Demons now felt his mouth opening in order
for the demon to suck out the light of his soul. He knew that if he
didn't act he would stay in hell forever.
As usual, pure luck gave him a final chance. A neighbor who had heard
the struggle came to see what the noise was about. Just as he walked in
the room, the demon turned to look, giving Boz time to move away. The
demon jumped upon the neighbor and devoured his brain.
When he had finished, he turned back to Boz's soul, now floating in a
corner of the room. His battered body was lying in pieces on the floor.
"I've only got one chance!" Boz realized. Before the demon had a chance
to understand, Boz slipped into the terminal's Transmaterialization
compartment and was sucked in by the network, or rather, into the
network, where he has become Boz, the virtual being.
He can never come back. From then on he could move around at will among
the various stations of the network, in the printed circuits of
terminals, between the lines of programming code. He got access to all
information, all reports, all secrets. Distance and time no longer
meant anything to him, he became "the Rider".
Yet his life was not made any easier as a result. The demons would not
give up trying to capture his soul and shortly thereafter Astaroth
unleashed virtual demons to hunt down Boz in the network. Then Ix
discovered a parasitic life form within its programs. Ix created
thousands of computer viruses to suppress Boz.In spite of these
enemies, the Rider is till there and continues to help the
pirates and all those who would be free. He has become chief of the
Awakened and runs a guerrilla army against the Trusts, the state and
the demons. While awaiting victory he continues to spy on
transmissions, to destroy codes and ruin programs, and to escape from
those who want him dead.

Omikron : the Nomad Soul
Unofficial Savegame FAQ v0.5

.5. Legal Stuff
.1. How to Use this File and Modify your Savegames
If you don't own the game, buy it! it worth the cost ;)If your goal is
only to find characters, you just have to look at the character list.
If you intend to hack the savegame (which is the file GAME, located in
the subdir IAM in your install dir), you should at first look for a hex
editor and have a minimun of knowledge about hex editing.
I recommend HexWorkshop (see at www.hexworkshop.com). The structure
table describes what I know about savegame data and what/where you have
to edit in the file. Watch out! hacking could corrupt your savegame!
To properly edit the savegame, first load the file in your faforite hex
editor, then search for your player name, and then your character name.
I suggest you 1st, create a backup of the file, 2nd, memorize some
infos/values about your character such as energy, rings, because I
didn't find a quicker way to know which save it is! (unless you saved
only one time through the whole game!)
If you have any information to give to me (such as new characters, or
information you have decoded in the IAM\GAME file...), email me. some
things which could be good to know: date/time coding (to recognize a
save), and some stuff like the cop/scientific/guard flags, which allow
you to enter some special zones such as the library in lahoreh, or get
past the guards in jail, or enter the security center in anekbah.
Anyone, feel free to use this data to code an editor, but give me
credit! I don't have time to write such a program, and I don't have
things like Visual c++ :(

.2. Hexadecimal Structure of the File IAM\GAME
advices:
- double check what you're doing. You should only overwrite things that
were already there: most of time, writing over some 00 is a bad idea…
- put your hex editor font display in ansi mode, you'll see better what
you're doing and you'll see things you wouldn't before, such as special
font displays.
- have both hex and ansi screen in front of you, both give important
information.
- use a hex calculator and a base converter (get Hexworkshop, they're
included)
- learn to use offset navigation, it's easier than counting bytes ;) in
Hex Workshop, left- then right-click on the first letter of the player
name, use "goto->offset" , from "current position", type in offset (in
hex!) and voila!
Here's the structure table:

.4. Frequently Asked Questions / Tips and Tricks
Feel free to submit some of your best tricks!
-How to get easy money?
if you can access the Sha'armet tournament, you'll win:
-1 victory in a row, 250 seteks
-2 victories, 250+500 seteks
-3 gives 250+500+1000
-4 gives 250+500+1000+1500
-5 gives 250+500+1000+1500+2000
and the right not to do the tournament again unless you change of body
so, loose at the 5th match, buy a big medkit (it's 200!), and do it
again, you can easily reach 10000 seteks in less than 15 minutes! and
you'll increase your fighting abilities at the same time...
-How to get rings?
find them! or kill a demon
-How to get mana?
kill a demon, or buy from a magic shop
-How to increase my abilities?
-attack and dodge : fight in hand to hand combat when you reach great
master of taar you's at max
-you can also buy potions but it seems that some are temporary ones,
and watch out, I was at 100 dodge, I boosted to 195 with potions, and
after some time I dropped to 45...
-What are the spells available?
-truth: tongue of dead + wiki
-protection: tear of ether + virgins blood
-unhide demon: sham horn + dew of light
-love:2 sham testicle + 9 bat teeth , I think you can't do it
-transmute to gold upon touch: woah, this one can't be done too, I
think... what to do is kind of a huge task... buy the book at the
sorcerer's shop in anekbah...
-What are transcan "survive", "something", "seven"...?
for you that don't read manuals... these are David Bowie (and Reeves
Gabrels)contribution to the game. there are 8 of them... listen to all
of them! these are great music. you can listen to them unlimitedly on
any transcan. There are also 3 live shows to find! Bowie himself and
his wife did the MotionCapture!
-What about a "Nomad Soul 2" ?
it seems to be on work... ;)
-What about a "Omikron Online"?
it seems to interest Quanticdream... I hope so...
