Reaper's Diary: Lilly

Hi Reapers, My name is Lars and I am one of the game designers at Fireroot Studios. I'm mostly working on the Story & Scenery in Rogue Reaper. That means I am usually creating the levels, thinking about the story of Rogue Reaper and what we want to portrait with our (upcoming) game. As a storyteller I would like to share some backstory about our main character in this upcoming game.

Lilly's Story

Lilly (short for Lillian) is the playable character in Rogue Reaper. As her father is the Grim Reaper she's never in the spotlights herself. Lilly is fifteen years old when the story of Rogue Reaper starts. Lilly grew up with just her father in the afterlife. Without any brothers or sisters around the house she was used to being alone while her father was doing his duty on earth. Being just with her father also created a strong bond between the two.

The scythe

When Lilly's mother died the scythe of her mother was passed on to Lilly. While Lilly is quite inexperienced with the powers the scythe possesses, she knows one thing for sure. She intents to pass on her mothers legacy. The scythe is equipped with a magical lantern that gives her access to her telekinetic powers.

With Great Power Comes...

Lilly knows as no other that one day she has to replace her father as the Grim Reaper. This puts quite some weight on her shoulders. But she knows like no other that the balance between life and death is the most important thing in the world. If she only knew that that balance is in great danger...
