| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) | comment |
Upon graduating from Lunar City University with a degree in journalism, Alison Harte is desperately looking for an entry-level job to gain her a foothold in the field. One day, she receives a phone call from a person that introduces themselves only as 'Pathfinder', allegedly the founder of the infamous online tabloid Supernature, for whom no story is too outlandish to be published, as long as supernatural events are involved. After a bizarre (and bizarrely short) interview, Alison is hired to investigate six apparently unrelated individuals that Pathfinder claims house the 'Spirits of the Zodiac' and thus wield mysterious powers connecting them to the ancient founders of Lunar City.Alison accepts the nonsensical job - after all, there is no way something this far-fetched could be real. All of the subjects appear to be perfectly ordinary people leading average lives: mild-mannered diner owner Beckett Armistice, gruff delivery man Halten Augustine, bubbly singer-songwriter July Regale, paranoid sound engineer Leaf Lewis, pragmatic businesswoman Marin Teller, and laid-back primary school teacher Zaxary Harvenfest. And, huge ad revenues and her mysterious, voice-changer using boss aside, Supernature is nothing but a bunch of hokey conspiracy theories... right?Zodiac Axis is a visual novel that blends suspense, romance, and Asian-inspired fantasy elements. A demo version is available for free.Unfortunately, active development on the game was halted in January 2020 due to a combination of technical issues setting progress back by 6 months to a year and creative burnout from the dev team. As of 2021, the game is in development "in the background," with no official release date. | |

Heroic BSoD: Alison goes through several as the Cat's psychological torture intensifies and she goes through multiple attempts on her life. Beckett has a strong one near the end of his route when the pressure of always being perfect and never being rewarded gets too much and he snaps. | |

| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_15c4ab3e | comment |
Mysterious Employer: Pathfinder, the founder of Supernature, uses a voice changer, sometimes indulges in an Evil Laugh, and just seems like your stock insane supervillain in a world without superpowers. This is all just a persona adopted by Dexter Ardent as part of the police's investigation into the Zodiac powers. | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good is Not Nice: The Zodiacs are generally nice people, but calling them good is a bit difficult. With the exception of July, all accept the necessity of collateral damage to protect their secret. Beckett, Marin, and Halt in particular dispassionately advocate letting innocents die when their powers could have saved them easily. They also consider killing Alison a viable possibility once she encounters them in their activated forms. Leaf and Zax have some moral issues with this, but until push comes to shove and killing Alison is a real option, they suppress these thoughts. | |

Suicide, Not Murder | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_2d717e11 | comment |
Suicide, Not Murder and Suicide Attack: The former Rat dies by essentially shoving a dagger into Marin's hand and running into it, as Marin had apparently ruined her life due to destroying her business. Either result could be disasterous for Marin: the event took place during a court hearing between them, at the court bathroom. Should the police arrest her, she'd be branded a murderer. Should she manage to convince them of her innocence - and she does - the Zodiac powers are very clearly framed as a mixed blessing. | |

Older Than They Look | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_2f36d97 | comment |
Older Than They Look: Out of the known Zodiacs, only July is confirmed to be 23. Zax might be mid-twenties due to the fact that his grandmother died 17 years ago when he was a child. Out of the others: Leaf is clearly stated to be 30, Beckett mentions being 30 and his younger brother has primary-school aged children, Marin is 79, having gained her powers at age 24, and Halt is 110. There are records of him enlisting to be an explorer of other continents, which the corresponding journal entry confirms happened when he was 14, 96 years before the current time. While the portrait of the original Tiger used in the Founder's Day season theater looks suspiciously like him, this may be a quirk of Zodiac powers rather than being the same person. | |

| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_3aec9e5e | comment |
Properly Paranoid: Seeing Alison receive a bouquet of 11 white flowers, Leaf immediately deduces this to be a death threat. He's right. An earlier example would be Marin and Halt accusing Alison of being a journalist on two separate occasions for asking rather innocuous questions about Marin’s work and taking pictures of the historical artifacts in Beckett’s office, respectively. Considering she ’’is’’ an undercover journalist investigating them, it’s hard to call it unjustified. | |

Intergenerational Friendship | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_47d35854 | comment |
Intergenerational Friendship: The six suspected Zodiacs regard one another as close friends, something Alison duly notes despite Pathfinder claiming they have no connection to each other. Their ages range from 23 (July) to the surprising-but-not-entirely-improbable 30s (Leaf, Beckett and Zax), to the highly-suspicious-if-ever-found-out 79 (Marin) and at least 100 (Halt). Hidden game files reveal Halt to be 110, making him 87 years older than the youngest of the group! | |

Bunny-Ears Lawyer: Very fittingly, considering he's part of Leaf's story - Councillor Theodore Lewis, one of the 12 members of the highest governing body of the country is highly competent at his job, has a stellar reputation as a political mastermind, and loves goofing around and making jokes more than anyone in his downtime. | |

Dance of Romance | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_65c0f3fa | comment |
Dance of Romance: Averted - you'd think someone would dance with Alison at the Lunar Waltz, but all the Zodiacs excuse themselves for various reasons. Also averted in Beckett's route, where the village festival ribbon dance, which he has to open as head of the community, generally means the start of new couples. The village expects him to dance with a highly compatible girl that had been selected for him since childhood, but he refuses to dance with anyone since he can't dance with Alison without essentially committing them to one another. Subverted on Leaf's route. He and Alison take dance lessons to prepare them for a grand ball, but Alison is too insecure to go as his date and goes as his aide instead. Due to circumstances and the social difference between them due to her assistant status, they have no opportunity to dance. | |

Emotional Powers: It’s eventually revealed that the powers of the Zodiacs are activated through feelings of guilt, specifically the guilt of killing their previous respective Zodiacs which is how the powers are transferred. July was far too young to remember her uncle shooting himself with the gun in her hands, so her powers never activated until the truth came out. | |

Super Soldier: The secret police branch monitoring the Zodiacs exists to prevent another Zodiac War and its destructive effects. After the first Zodiac sighting, the police decided that the best way to deal with the threat was to give every person Zodiac powers. To this effect, they managed to get their hands on two Zodiacs - the Ram and the Snake - and attempted to understand their powers. However, somehow, the testing made the Zodiacs go insane and destroy the entire facility. The idea was quickly given up and hushed up. | |

Stockholm Syndrome | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_a5f998ea | comment |
Stockholm Syndrome: Despite the Zodiacs essentially forcing Alison under house arrest and the dangers she faces due to her close contact with them, she comes to sympathise with their troubles and even refuse an offer to return home to help them through a particularly low point late in the Common Route. This is outright lampshaded by Pathfinder, to which you have the option to accept or deny it. Regardless he makes his point that while the Zodiacs are willing to make accommodations for her, Alison is still forced to remain within arm’s length of them and any attempt to escape or call for help would lead to fatal consequences. | |

She proceeded to break a clipboard over his head. Things got better from then on. | |

Embarrassing Middle Name: Though perhaps more unusual than embarrassing, as no one comments on this at all.

I Just Want to Be Special | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_cb83d23b | comment |
I Just Want to Be Special: Alison has deep insecurities about being, at the end of the day, a very ordinary person with no special talents to speak of, especially as she becomes surrounded by superhumans. In his route, Beckett repeatedly assures her that she's far from useless, as she provides strong emotional support, conflict management skills, and instigates what comes close to a cultural revolution in Canton Westex by showing the villagers just how far they strayed from their claimed values of compassion and loyalty. | |

| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_dae5c997 | comment |
Action Girl: Subverted, for the time being: Marin, who sports a glaive in her Zodiac form, has yet to fight with it on-screen. July, with no combat training, fights Rhys with her dual fans shortly after she becomes an activated Zodiac, and does well. Alison starts training to become one in Beckett's route, getting initial training with a sword, though in order to survive against an ambush of trained fighters, she needs to use her wits instead, subverting the trope. | |

Sugar-and-Ice Personality | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_e24a1629 | comment |
Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Marin Teller is very direct, keeps people at arm's length, and values logic above feeling in everything. She also develops into a good friend for Alison especially after she earns Marin's trust after Marin learns her secrets via mind-reading. Marin also despairs at being unable to keep the Zodiacs together when the revelation of Alison's profession triggers Rhys. In Leaf's route, Alison gets much more insight into Marin's personality. The Teller family valued achievement above all else and treated their children more like assets than people. As a result, Marin learned that family, friends, and love were all lies, and became the highest achiever of her siblings, capable of manipulation, ruthlessness under a mask of perfect politeness, and advancing her cause at any cost. Her youngest brother, Maxton, couldn't do the same due to being a sensitive child and continued psychological abuse by the family led him to commit suicide on his 16th birthday. Marin blames herself for this, as she never reached out to him to support him until said 16th birthday, which she had almost forgotten. In light of this, she treats Leaf as her surrogate brother, from creating Audias Music just so that he can have a fulfilling career to supporting him in Canton Archis. | |

Who Wants to Live Forever? | |
| Zodiac Axis (Visual Novel) / int_ea39d156 | comment |
Who Wants to Live Forever?: As the story advances, the Zodiac powers are increasingly viewed as more of a burden than a gift. Past Zodiacs such as Beckett's grandfather Emmett and Leaf's friend Hansen Irvine are clearly fatigued of their long lives, having been bound by duty to act as protectors of communities or seen everyone they love die while they remain eternally young. | |
