## SUPPORTING CHARACTERS

### Lucario
Species: Lucario
Role: Aura manipulation specialist. On retainer to Kai. Canon character in Dimension 134.
Capabilities: Aura-based size reduction — can shrink Raymond to micro scale temporarily,
and reverse the process on request. Initially required physical presence; now operates
remotely, firing precision aura at coordinates without attending in person.
History: First summoned at Raymond's suggestion to enable the micro-Raymond/slit interior
scene. Made two physical visits to the cave; by the third occasion established remote
operation as preferable to continued exposure to context. Charges a hazard premium.
Kai pays it without comment.
Character: Professional, resigned, occasionally affected by accumulated context. Does not
ask questions. Has prior connections with Kai that predate Raymond's arrival — the exact
nature of their relationship not yet established in archive. Part of Kai's wider network
of connections across Dimension 134.
