The visionary romanticism of Percy Bysshe Shelley shaped early narrative experiments. His treatment of creators and their creations, the weight of ambition, and the consequences of reaching beyond sanctioned limits all run through VESSELBORN's thematic core.
The speculative density of Masamune Shirow informed how VESSELBORN approaches technology, politics, and world scale systems. His layered approach to depicting civilizations, where economic pressures, military doctrine, and ideological conflict operate simultaneously, became a structural model.
The execution owes as much to entrepreneurial discipline as creative ambition. Percy Miller demonstrated that ownership, vertical integration, and continuous output could turn a regional operation into a lasting enterprise without external dependence. That blueprint informed how VESSELBORN is structured: owned infrastructure, no outside stakeholders, continuous release, long term scalability.
VESSELBORN
A science fantasy universe set on Geba, a brown dwarf planet in a trinary star system. The property spans six thousand years of fictional history: civilizations, wars, belief systems, and technologies developed with internal consistency as the governing principle.
The work is concerned with limitation and what it takes to surpass it. Its characters build capability through discipline and sustained effort. Strength appears as outcome, not inheritance.
VESSELBORN is the principal property of Cuby Holdings LLC.
