Proxy

Description

Overview

Proxies are guides-for-hire who help others, usually Hollow Raiders, to traverse Hollows. Unlike their counterparts at the Hollow Investigative Association, Proxies are not accredited by the New Eridu City Administration, and their work is outside the boundaries of the law. They often complete jobs too risky or shady for the HIA to take on.

Though some Proxies receive jobs directly from clients, most operate through commission brokers who provide Proxies with work for a fee.^[2] Proxies are also loosely bound together by the Proxy Network, aka Inter-Knot, an online platform where users can share advice and post or accept commissions. Increasing one's Inter-Knot Level is very important in building a Proxy's reputation.

Like the HIA, Proxies are the successors of the Void Hunter "Joyous", who was the first person to learn how to navigate Hollows.^[3]

The most famous Proxy within New Eridu is Phaethon, a sibling duo who achieved "Legendary" Inter-Knot status prior to their account credentials being stolen by someone else.^[4]

Trivia

Etymology

• The Chinese name for Proxies is 绳匠 Shéngjiàng, "rope artisan", which fits the theme of Hollows being mazes and Proxies navigating them with data-traced paths. This is likely a reference to the mythological Greek Labyrinth, which Theseus escaped by retracing his steps with the ball of thread Ariadne gave him.
