Story
Bio
REX GANON - The Indestructible Man! A former military type who swore off violence and pays the bills with the odd-mercenary contracts. Rex reluctantly accepts a position to become the leader of the KOTS in exchange for information on his missing colleague, Vaughn Von Braughn.
Rex: "I didn't want to lead the KOTS, but Fred has something I need. So for the time being... this is just a job I have to do."
Brick: "Sure dude, that's cool... so listen, I retrofitted this Rift Killer Armor with a few surprises. Including... well... our old leader, Lime. I created a facsimile A.I. based on his digital foot print, and I uploaded it into the flex harddrive. He'll be able to guide you and give you insight into how to beat Teal."
Rex: "So I'll have a dead man's voice inside my head?"
Brick: "Sure!"
Murder in Los Angeles
"Rex Ganon, living a quiet life on Sub City, is called to Los Angeles to inspect a murder within the Pizza Shunt corporation. Met by the L.A. Knight, together they team up to solve the mystery and perhaps take in a vegan meal at Gracias Madre or perhaps some nighttime entertainment at Jumbo's Clown Room. They were going to go hiking around Griffith Observatory, but that was wiped out in the meteor strike a few years back."
