Main Character Discussion.

I'd recommend staying somewhere we're familiar with, a country we know with customs we know and names we know.

And by that, I mean a little project that most likely won't have anything to do with out VN as of yet.

By the way. From the sounds of it, our MC has moved from another country. We need to decide which country, and a name from that location.

E.G. If he's American or British, he most likely needs an English name, like John or Steve.

Fine hes french and his name is Cedric.

Considering he moved away because he got attacked by a gang which later appears again in the VN i'd figure hes just Japanese but moved to a different town.

So if he is Japanese i got another name to consider. Takuma which mean "expand, open" representing how he need to open and expand in friendship.

That would make more sense. Japanese name would be suitable for that.

Japanese name...
Taro
Also Every time I see that I'll think takumi in my head

i think we need to go with a gangster name like Ken Yamazaki

SunnyDay wrote:So to summarize what you guys have spoken about:

The MC is a doesn't-take-shit-from-no-one kind of character. I'm guessing the gang at his old school are constantly beating him up for fun, but he does try to stand up for himself.

One day he did something to piss off the gang and to get him back, they poured acid down his back during a science/chemistry lesson and it left him severely scarred, and he's very self conscious about the scarring down his back. And not long after this event, he moved school/city/country.

Am I on the right track here?

Actually what this is what i had in mind about the MC. MC is a trouble maker or a delinquent Ditches classes and like to fight. Even though he doesn't take crap from anybody, he cant stand others being picked on. So one day he see's a kid being picked on by a typical school puck bullies. MC being the hero delinquent, beats the crap outta them, telling them to screw off.

Turns out the bullies are part of a street gang. Them being the little pussies, they go and tell their leader. Leader gets pissed and orders them to kidnap the MC. MC gets caught but not without a fight, after a long fight. The gang manages to overcome the MC an win. Therefore they torture him, beat him and burn him. MC manages to survive but is forced to relocate under the witness protection thingy. There he moves to a new town or city and lives with distant relatives or friends. Life starts a new.

I like it but i think we can tweak it, leal beats up bradd after bradd nails the MC, MC then goes around meeting the girls and stuff, flirting with them and shit. After that the gang from MC's original school arrives and me, leal and mc fight them alongside some of the girls, after the fight there is a band (boysXkiss - made up of me and leal) to play out act 1 apart from if you go down Big Tits route (thank leal for the great name) and she doesnt show to the fight and you get shot and die.

Makes a good rough version for the main plot, I think.

I just want to make sure Holey, but will that all be going down in the first act, and afterwards, you'll be going down one of the females route straight after?
