I really know nothing about things like sprites and really anything having to do with games, but I've sort of ignored this game so far but felt that I ought to get involved in some way. So if I'm gonna make this character, I could use some help. Any volunteers?

Complicating matters is that because I'm getting involved with this so late in the game, I missed out on a lot. It would be very helpful if somewhere there was an easily accessible comprehensive summary of the plot of the game, since I can't find one easily…

For that reason, I don't really know how compatible the following background story will be:

Mic was a traveling musician who played with his brother wherever he could get a gig. Because the brothers hailed from New York, they often found themselves playing in the city area. They had finally made it big; a record company had just signed them, and they decided that they would play one last gig somewhere in the city the night before they were due to report to the studio.

Then tragedy struck.

In the middle of the gig, two suspicious characters in the club got into an argument which soon turns into a gunfight.

A stray bullet hit Mic's brother, instantly killing him.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" cried Mic, throwing down his guitar and launching himself at the gun-wielding men, blinded by fury.

That was the last thing he knew before he was knocked out cold.

---

Since then, Mic has become a sort of an underground crime fighter, largely abandoning his musicianship. He fights any crime he can, for he feels it is his responsibility to prevent the innocent from befalling harm as a consequence of the actions of the foolish or evil. His true mission, however, is to track down the two men responsible for his brother's life…

I can't really continue it from there because I don't really know the general story of the game. How do all of the characters meet up in the story? I would probably say that my character should accidentally get entangled in the plot of the game while chasing down a seemingly inconsequential character who perhaps could actually be a villain in the game? Again, it's hard for me to say…if someone could summarize the plot for me real fast that would be great.

As for things like sprites and gameplay, I completely put that into the hands of somebody with more game-making expertise than myself.

So yeah. Is there anything else I need?

[MessengerOfDreams]

Hmmm... the whole Mic's brother dying thing sounds a tad familiar... *coughTRCcough* but you put twice the effort into it that anyone else, even I, did.

[MICrophone]

Yes, and it also sounds similar to the TLT Background Stories. And thanks…I guess that means you all put two minutes in to your stories, cause I put like four into mine.

So will my background story work in the game?

[MessengerOfDreams]

I don't see why not. Just fix it so you wind up at Niklaw's Tavern the night of Runouw's anniversary/kidnapping.

[MICrophone]

So that's the plot? Thanks…so where is the Tavern located? In the game, I mean. Is it in a real place? Or not…?

[MessengerOfDreams]

It is. Runouw.com is a city.

[MICrophone]

And this city is located where? A fictional place? In America? Some other country?

[MessengerOfDreams]

Fictional Place.

[MICrophone]

OK…let's try this then…

One day, about a year later, Mic was tipped off by another underground crime fighter that one of the men responsible for his brother's death could be found in a city called Runouw.com. So Mic immediately took off for the city, and by evening that same day arrived. Figuring a bar like joint was the best place to start looking, he entered the first one he saw, a place called Niklaw's Tavern…

Good?
