Environment Concept

I have decided to base my environment on the protagonists individual perception. So first I must create a simple story for the character and environment...

Story

The protagonist is an 81 year old survivor, he manage to avoid death when earth was hit by a huge asteroid. This asteroid killed the majority of life on earth and split the planet into hundreds of tiny pieces, the protagonist managed to cling to a rock and avoid death. 6 months have passed and he now inhabits this rock as it tumbles through space.

· Defined hallucinations - As the vividness and intensity increases, the imagery eventually becomes fully defined in their appearance ranging from stylized to realistic in appearance. Transformations will also manifest themselves as fully detailed and within a person’s direct line of sight.
· Breakthrough hallucinations - Once the hallucinations become sufficiently elaborate they eventually become all encompassing. Short breakthroughs into hallucination start to happen with increasing frequency and length as dosage is increased. Beginning with random flashes of spontaneous psychedelic scenarios. Eventually increasing to permanent, ever shifting alternate realities and a complete disconnection from the real world,
