you're good at inventing bad guys, aren't you?? or is this one not as evil as he looks?

*stomps off*

nah, seriously tho. If he does end up as bad guy, he'd probably be a sidekick-type bad guy, so if might be better to make him a good guy. or neutral. depends what sort of storyline you wanna stick him in, I guess. Neutral might work better since he won't really have too many mates if he's toxic - or good but a loner, like batman.

No reason he cant be a hero, maybe he can bump into a little runaway girl at an outlet pipe and steal food for her, make friends with her. Or maybe a big dumb dog, he might look cool with a surfer dog sidekick.

Then again, you could make it darker. Maybe he returns to where he was thrown into the sewer as a child and finds something that stirs his memory of his parents. Then he goes off to find em, cue emotional whatnot.

hmm, I'm happy to chuck ideas at ya, Dan-dude, but I'm not good enough at writing (and waaaay too busy with end of course coursework, bah!) to do any actually writing. oh yeah, and seriously lazy too... ;)

I think this guy should be typical surfer dude - sez things like "knarly, man!" a lot... (see how little I know about surfers!)

and the story's gotta have something bad going down in the sewers - why else would Ebola leave them? he wouldn't, unless he was made to, surely. so mebbe: some other (evil) gang or person takes up residence in the sewers to do their evil work somewhere private (course Ebola would know the sewers so much better than them he'd kick their butts). or something like that.

hmm, and if he's neutral, they'd have to do something to personally offend HIM in order to incite his wrath - cause since he's not a do-gooding goodie-two-shoes he's not going to be particularly alturistic, is he?

just sum thoughts. mostly arse. ;)
