Early Wreck-It Ralph Storyboards: Tamora and Hero's Duty

I haven't seen anyone address this, but it's a pretty big deal for character background!

In the early Hero's Duty scenes from Jed Diffenderfer, we actually get some insight as to the relationship between Tamora and her soldiers, a hint at her life situation at this point, as well as an example of the type of authority she has over her troops outside of gameplay.

When Ralph (disguised in Markowski's armor) has bumblefucked Moppet Girl's round of play in Hero's Duty, Tamora smells root beer on him and puts him under cabinet arrest/grounds him from leaving the game as punishment for presumably showing up drunk to a quarter alert (which is probably also where this animation test comes from).

The fact that Tamora doesn't know whether the arcade has a Tapper cabinet — a game that everyone at Litwak's is familiar with — suggests that she must not have left her game in the week they'd been plugged in (or at least not explored Game Central Station). This isn't surprising as Hero's Duty is a very demanding game after all, especially as a lead character. But given that her soldiers have ventured out to enjoy themselves at the bar, it's likely that she was too busy throwing herself into her job as much as possible to avoid dwelling on her own feelings at this point.

Afterwards, there's this exchange between Ralph and Jenkins, one of the soldiers:

For me at least, it's satisfying (and heartwarming!) to see it confirmed that Tamora's soldiers really do have her back and sympathize with her — hell, they've probably seen some nasty things in war too, and can relate to her. We can already kinda infer from the movie and Hero's Duty comic that she has a strong friendship with Kohut, but seeing that she has at least some indication of support from her troops (and that they're aware of what happened in her backstory) is a really important and consistent detail — it also supports how determined they are to watch her six and protect Felix at her wedding.

From the start, she was never completely alone in her grief.
