my idea was for a slig hero. not very original, you might say, but this slig was involved in an accident, and is unable to use Vykker mechanical add-ons, such as pants and wings. add to this that he is one of many sligs who have been demoted to slaves to replace the rapidly disappearing mudokons, and you begin to see his problems.
it all began like this. one day, Drak [as i'll call him] was on patrol where he worked, when he overheard a conversation between two executives, about what to do about the vanishing slaves. when he realised what they were planning, he ran. several Drones gave chase, and Drak fell off a high wall. he broke his spine at the waist, and cut off the nerves which controled his pants. shedding the pants, he began to make his escape. [that was the opening cinematic]
after escaping from his place of work [this is in the mid-game cinematic, like the one after the Stockyards], Drak realises that he has no idea where he is, and runs off into the forest, where he meets EITHER Abe & co OR some native arboreal sligs. and i'll leave the rest to your imagination.
