■STORY
Chromageists
These are beings born of the thoughts, emotions, and memories contained in paintings.
Behind the distinctive, unusual visage of each Chromageist lies a mind missing vital memories.
One day, a boy named Vince wanders into their home: a place known as the "Lost Museum".
Within the museum, he finds a magic pen with mystical powers.
Pen in hand, he draws ever closer to the Chromageists—
to the emotions they hold and the mystery behind their lost memories.
Our hero: Vince, a human boy.
In the middle of his search for his missing older brother, he winds up inside the Lost Museum.
A bit of a people pleaser, he finds himself beholden to the whims of the various Chromageists, though steadily building bonds of trust in the process.
His companion: Novi, a childlike Chromageist.
The first Chromageist Vince meets, Novi's face is made of glimmering lights, and their small form can often be seen floating around.
Novi is quite fond of Vince, and the two bond and grow together as they encounter the memories of the Chromageists.
