Fictional biography
ROVER's Memoir Entry #442I did not mention my life befor the WAR a lot. Believe it or not. I was a racer. It was CAR CRASH who suggested us to join the COMBAT RACING. You know, like in the Slum is not that great. We can onle live by plunder and other dirty business, running and parkour skills became handy.
T-BONE was badly damaged in the robbery; we don't have enough CYAIX to pat for his operation. The only way was to join the dangerous, deadly COMBAT RACING.
The skill by the streets helps a lot in the racing circuit. We can always avoid serious damage and survive in the game, although we had never won one. We became regular players and started to have sponsors. Life started getting better, and then the WAR just began. Everything was ruined again.
I am not surprised that CAR CRASH and T-BONE would join the other side....but I still believe in Justice and hope we won't meet each other in the battle field.
