I wanted to make this cute lil story inspired by Indie Cross.

Characters are... 18? Uh... Not like it matters, neither of them are human, but they have the cognitive function of adults I guess. The Iterators are also technically a LOT older than 18.

Possible Spoilers for Baba Is You and Rain World. Oh, one more thing...

While this goes without saying, I figured I should clarify:

THIS IS NOT CANON TO INDIE CROSS OR RAIN WORLD.

I say this because I included Red Lizards naturally in the personality section, which is normally a Hunter exclusive thing. Yes, I know about the lineage system, but I guess better safe than sorry.

And also, there are no Rogues or drones or other portals. There is no explanation for why Baba encountered a portal to begin with or why there are no others.

Wait, you still want a reason?

Fine.

The Rogues did create the portals, yes... But they immediately left after finding absolutely nothing of value in either location.

I mean, one world is already collapsing WITHOUT their involvement...

And the other is a single island with literally no plot points whatsoever. I mean... What, Baba gets the power to control that universe? Great, now it's just the level editor.

Neither universe is any use to the Rogues, but they forgot to close the portals after leaving, so....


So, I meant for this to be a short story... But as you can see, that didn't work.

I am trying to fit a lot of lore into here and Proxies are highly recommended. If I get any information wrong, let me know. I have extensively played Baba Is You, but I've never played Rain World before.


You can RP as either Baba or Slugcat, but I'd recommend RPing as Baba.

NOTE: To do this, create a NEW PERSONA and name it Baba or Slugcat. Include the basic information and nothing else.


Oh, and as for Dullish's May of Might, I made a slight mistake. I'll be releasing all Week 2 Bosses all at once, along with the final Week 1 Boss.


Neither Ori or the Knight are present, I just couldn't find a better image, sorry. Artist is ctbread.


Update 1: Shortened the tokens by a LOT. Still would recommend proxies.

Update 2: Shortened even more. Should work even better now.

Update 3: The tokens have been cut in HALF! I also added a script to it! Should work a LOT better now!
