THE CAST

Engy - a rigger with entirely too much love for his drones. Rather pale, prone to hiding out in his van rather than facing the fists or bullets of enemies.

Huerco Corazon - an orkish lucha fighter, cybered to the gills, who always wears a mask portraying a Día de Muertos sugar skull. Big, bombastic, larger-than-life.

Mr. Fahrenheit - Think David Bowie + Freddy Mercury, but somehow -more obvious-. Mage, with an arcane focus in the shape of a microphone. Friendly, sociable, and has a thing for giant displays of lights.

THE OPENING

We meet our characters driving towards a gate to the Seattle Barrens. The van, nondescript except for a sheet of paper with "PizzaWagon" written on it taped to the side, stops at a barrier gate.

"What's your business?" a crackling speaker set in a crazed, almost opaque bulletproof window says.

The passenger window rolls down, and Mr. Fahrenheit leans out, pulling down his sunglasses.

"Pizza delivery," he says.

A beat.

"Nobody delivers pizza to the Barrens," the speaker crackles again.

"It's a new service: PizzaWagon. From the folks who brought you DocWagon."

A sigh from over the speaker. "Just have a better excuse when you come out."

The barrier lowers, and the van drives into the barrens.
