[ STAR-STUDDED ACES ] The main cast of characters, as well as any future additions to the cast, will identify as ace or on the asexual spectrum. While there's no "real" reasoning for this, I feel like I must quote a very important woman on my inclusion of ace and aro characters as my protagonists:
"I just think they're neat!" - Marge Simpson
[ THREE PATHS ] Choose between three different characters to play as. Experience the story from different points of view. Explore the different parts of the bunker and befriend your fellow bunkmates.
[ FREE TO BE ME ] I am fairly new to interactive fiction and the many different programs used for it, but I plan on players to change the gender of the character they chose to play as. I might expand this more so players can change the gender of everyone else as well, but I have no idea how to do that. As of writing this, all three characters will remain as male.
[ AN EXPANDING CAST ] As of yet, there are only three characters available to play as. Hopefully, there will be a few new characters to play as in future updates.
LAWRENCE (m)
asexual
The Librarian with an ACE-CENTRIC personality. From basic math to the philosophical complexities of terraforming Mars, this man knows it all! Well, sorta.
Waking up in a mysterious bunker with fellow abductees, Vincent and Abel, Lawrence finds the yellow walls of their bunker grow in their capacity and threat. With the bunker playing host to both man and beast, Lawrence is quick to use his book smarts to get them out of danger before the three lose their minds.
ABEL (m)
aromantic
The Medical Student with a BR-ACE-ING diagnosis. Unable to remember much before waking up inside the bunker, this medical intern attempts to suture together his memory and sanity.
The yellow walls of his holding room give Abel an unwanted sense of familiarity. In Seattle, Paris, and even Greece, pictures of Abel can be found throughout the many rooms of the underground bunker. At least he thinks it's him. With the help of his fellow bunkmates, Lawrence & Vincent, Abel hopes to solve the mystery of his faulty memory before something faulty befalls them.
VINCENT (m)
grey-asexual
The Newshound with the ANONYM-ACE source. Having only heard of situations like these amongst his fellow reporters, Vincent finds himself in the middle of a scoop that he cares not to be in.
Based on the news stories of people who woke up in situations like this, Vincent is not liking his odds at escaping the yellow walls of the bunker. Thankfully, he's not on his own. He hopes with his bunker friends, Lawrence & Abel, and his own inquisitive nature, they will have higher odds of escaping the bunker. Hopefully beating the odds of whatever else lurking within these yellow walls finding them first.
