BLOODBORN: In a world without Pandora, in a world where dreams did become a reality and David didn’t end up become an assassin to help his mother out – he would want to be an actor. He always loved those old school fighting movies. He could be anyone and look cool on the silver screen, kicking ass and getting paid handsomely to do it. He would not want to become a huge A-Lister, because that came with the loss of privacy and his passion would no longer be a passion but work. He would want to do what he loved, get paid for it and provide for his mother. Get her a nice house, repay her for everything she had done to him while he grew up. It wouldn’t be a flawless life – but it would be calm. It would be devoid of death and sorrow and pain. Just him taking steps to become a great actor and provide for his mother. Do something that would truly bring him a smile to his face. And who knows? Maybe he would have a partner to bring home and introduce to his mother. A partner who would be by his side as much as he would be by theirs too.

PROMETHEUS: In a perfect world, he would have never been a cage fighter. In a perfect world, he would have finished his studies and maybe get a college degree, for no other reason than just to know that he could do it. Lars never had bigger than life plans. He liked to workout. That was his passion. Maybe after getting his degree, he would work as a personal trainer for a couple of years, saving money so that he could open his own gym. A place devoted not just to the physical aspect of a person but also their mind and emotions. Help them be the best version of themselves that they could. It was not a dream with lots of ambition – but a dream where he could cultivate the idea of healthy mind and healthy body. Help others become the best version of themselves, not because he would want to change them – but because he truly believes that everyone should be the best version of themselves always. The world is already a cruel place. It wouldn’t hurt to have someone on their corner. Knowing that they were not alone.

SMOKE: In a perfect world, power would mean everything. There wasn’t a single thing Alistair would have changed. He liked the politics. He liked the behind the scenes moves, the backstabbing, the chances to prove himself superior to everyone else. And he would pursuit that goal relentlessly. Why be a big fish in a small pound when he could become the biggest shark in the ocean? He would pursue his career like a shark after blood. It would not matter whose path he would need to crush or how many people he would need to betray. Such was the life in politics as he had learned since a young age. To have so much power and influence at his fingertips… it would be everything to him. He would not want the center stage, obviously. Let someone else be the mouthpiece. Let someone else be the puppet while he pulled the strings. For every task there was a perfect tool. And Alistair would find all the right ones so that he could have the damn world in his grasp. And maybe... just maybe pursue a side gig as a singer.

SHADOW: In the perfect world, there was very little that Mathias would have changed. He believes that things happen for a reason. The military helped him become the best version of himself while assisting others in need. Someone had to do it. Someone had to do the horrible things so that innocent people could sleep well at night. Kiss their kids and loved ones. Live in a free world. He wouldn’t have changed any of that. Things happened the way they should. A life with no regrets. But in a perfect world, he would have been picked. The man he had feelings for would have seen him as a companion. As someone who was worthy to stand by his side. He wouldn’t have watched him marry someone else. He would be the one at the altar exchanging vows. And when the time came, they would both retire from the military and face the civilian life together. Maybe open a business together. Get a nice house with a white fence, maybe a dog or three. And later… who knows? Maybe they could adopt. Maybe they could have a family of their own, knowing that they did what they could to make the world a safer place for their kids.

gossamer: gossamer never really had a chance. his parents always intended on turning him into an assassin, making it impossible for him to ever live a normal life. but after living in pandora, developing genuine friendships and relationships, he catches himself wishing he had a normal childhood with normal parents that didn't murder people for a living. perry pictures himself with a mundane job, with a boyfriend ( you know who ), and savoring every moment of it.

glamour: glamour lived a comfortable life before pandora. he was an acclaimed thief, with stolen riches and treasures from all over the globe. returning to that life would be ideal, but he would make one change: having max from the very beginning. he missed so much of his son's life, that if he did have a second chance to do everything over again, he would raise the boy from the very beginning.

agent arsenal

agent arsenal had grown up mostly on his own, fending for himself in the wild. this would definitely continued had he not been apart of project pandora. he was content to live on the land, off the grid, and by himself. his friend was the wilderness, and the occasional regular face he'd met during his runs to town. peaceful, quiet, isolated.

agent chimera

the biggest disappointment. it's entirely unclear where agent chimera would be without czernobog, or pandora, to define him. he was robbed of his identity at such a young age, no one knew the boy he was before. robbed of any identity, his potential would be limitless if he hadn't endured these trials.

agent copycat

friendly and easygoing, agent cypher definitely would've thrived in a social field. influencer, therapist, nurse, wherever he could help others, he would. given his beach bum life prior to his contraction within the program, he likely would've spent his summer as a lifeguard, putting himself through school to help those who need it.

agent cypher

agent cypher was pretty content with his life prior to his forcible entry into project pandora. he would've completed his masters in computer information systems, gotten a nice, high paying job, and used his resources to track down his missing uncle. he would've remained quite close to his father, never straying too far, even when it was time to strike it out on his own.

agent hotwire

Max would be living with his Mom, an even more prodigious thief than he already was being able to continue to learn from his Mom working with her in job after job. Using the things they steal to bankroll their lives and take care of each other. In this world Max would be much sweeter and even tempered, less jaded and bitter about life. He would also be much less morbid than he is now and more sensitive to other's feelings having been cared for since he was born instead of half way through life instead.

Boreas got to continue his dance career, he got into that elite dance company, and began to tour the world showing off his skills, launching himself into a level of minor celebrity. Eventually when he retired he would open a dance school where he would teach others the same skills he became famous for.

Asura would be leading the cult high in the mountains that focused on inner and outer balance, he would invite martial arts practitioners from all over the world to join him and in turn would teach them what he knows as well. It would be some where reclusive and high in the mountains where he would continually work on bettering himself or at least his idea of it.
