Jimmy
Lee
Our
main man. Jimmy Lee was a rising star in the world of video
game competition until one day his best friend Woovelt died.
Jimmy Lee first met Woovelt in California sitting on top of a San
Francisco Rush Arcade machine. While racing with Woovelt at
his side, he set world record times in San Francisco Rush.
Ever since their meeting, Jimmy has had much success in the
International Gaming League. Although he has not yet attained
the rank of game "Master", quite a few spectators believe this
young 14-year-old gamer has the potential to become
one.
Unfortuanately, one day Jimmy
discovered Woovelt shattered to pieces. Heartbroken
over
his friend's
death, Jimmy has sworn off video games. With his talents
dwindling he does little more than spend his days staring at a static
TV screen occasionally uttering the word, "Calfornia" (where he and
Woovelt first met.) Will Jimmy ever fully recover from his
friend's death and find out if he has what it takes to become the next
Master?
Woovelt
What
can be said about Woovelt that the picture doesn't already
explain? To many he just looks like a little plastic
box. Not many people seem to believe he is more than that.
But to Jimmy, he is his closest friend who's been at his side through
the good games and the bad games. It would appear that he was
killed by being crushed by something unknown. The only clues
are his shattered remains. Jimmy still carries the shards of
Woovelt in a plastic bag close at his side.
Billy
Lee
Billy is the cousin of Jimmy Lee. He is a bit of an eccentric
gamer(although, who isn't). He revels in video game lore to
an obsessive degree, to the point that some people can't even
understand what he's saying. Though not a particularly
skilled gamer, Billy's knowledge of video game lore is second to
none. He has been very supportive of Jimmy's quests in gaming
and seems to be the only other person beside Jimmy who believes that
Woovelt exists.
Since recently moving back into Jimmy's town, he has tried to get Jimmy
to start playing video games again. One day, when he visited
Jimmy's house he discovered that Jimmy's misunderstanding parents
intended to send Jimmy to a home seeing how he could not get over what
they perceived as an "imaginary friend's" death. Fearing what
could happen, Billy decides it's time for Jimmy to escape.
Billy later convinces Jimmy's parents to reconsider their decision as
he starts to get Jimmy back into gaming again.
Rhythm
As
the name implies she's got rhythm. A gamer well grounded in
reality, her specialty is in music oriented video games. She
bested Jimmy in a Dance Dance Revolution match at a video game
decathalon held at Edgar's house. However, she also saw the
great potential he had as he dominated 9 out of 10 games in the
decathalon. And he did so coming nearly fresh out of
retirement. Impressed by his skills, she helps support Jimmy
in making his return to gaming.
DarkDOOM
Not much is known about this mysterious figure that some gamers call
"The bane to all of gaming". His mere presence inspires fear
and his gaming skills have been known to drive some opponents
mad. Just the utterance of his name can send shivers down
most gamer's spines.
Gary
A relatively unknown gamer in the International Gaming League, Gary has
won quite a few victories locally. He usually plays games by
his own rules and has even been dubbed by some as "The Game
Shark". Will Jimmy be able to beat Gary at his own games?
Other notable figures and lore in the world of The
Master.
Masters
There have been very few Masters in the history of gaming and it is the
most prestigious title a gamer can earn in the International Gaming
League. Many gamers strive for this title but never reach
it. Even fewer gamers can maintain their status as
Master. A Master is a gamer who is good at just about every
game out there. It is not enough to be a Master in a singular
gnre of gaming, a Master must demonstrate a high caliber of skill
across the board. Only one gamer can hold the title of Master
at a time. Due to the challenges involved a Master is a very
rare breed.
Minions
These mysterious figures are the loyal henchmen of DarkDOOM.
Though not quite as intimidating as DarkDOOM, their presence strikes
fear in most gamers.
Gamers
The
variety of gamers that Jimmy faces in the gaming decathalon at Edgar's
house.
International Gaming League
The
official videogame league that organizes and holds international
competitions. It is at the championships where gamers go to
prove themselves. In the past, Jimmy was the champ in his
region but ulimately lost in the final rounds. Will Jimmy
ever get back what it takes to become a competitive player in the
International Gaming League?
