the narrator from the stanley parable as one of the scrybes in inscryption. this idea is not fleshed out at all but i just wanna see them interact so badly lol
he’s like leshy in terms of his flair for dramatics and how much he values storytelling, but the way he approaches it is so similar to how p03 approaches gameplay. he doesn’t just care about the story (if you pick up stuff around his set the way you do in leshy’s cabin and attempt to use it, he definitely would not let you the way leshy does. “no no no, where did you get that? that isn’t part of the game, i’m confiscating it--”). he cares about his ideal story. i could 100% imagine him ranting to grimora about the player not doing what he wants while she just sips tea and occasionally gives a noncommittal “hm.” narrator playtesting with leshy and giving each other comments and critiques on their stories, both civil and polite yet not taking ANY of each other’s advice. he’d absolutely have arguments with p03 just because p03 will needle him about his strategy and he HAS to defend it. i have no idea how he’d interact with magnificus other than not understanding how to play his card game and them being slightly judgmental about each other’s sense of aesthetics.
(also, i love the idea of the narrator’s cards all having references to the stanley parable. the adventure line™ with sprinter and bifurcated strike sigils, the bucket destroyer with steel trap and/or touch of death. the figurines are definitely cards though i have no idea what they would do. he gives you the option to choose the bucket as one of your starting cards, and he also gives unsolicited advice on which paths you should take whenever you play.)
honestly i mostly just wanna see the narrator and leshy hanging out
