I don't know that there's one single character that would make everything fall into place, so much as a larger cast in general. The world of a noir cop, a Batman, an urban adventurer, is colored by people of all stripes. I can't ask Crash or anyone to people this story with NPCs just for my use, and I can't any more write it myself, only for my own benefit, with the game's actual important characters being only bit players. There had to be a larger world going on, with discrete social circles. What we have instead is a cozy small group game, and it seems like we might end up with two social circles at most. I really appreciate the offer, but after thinking about all of this, it seems to make the most sense to go with a different character, a different story.
