Protagonist

The NotMuch Wiki community needs more information on this page! You can help us by **adding to it**.

Upon starting a new game, the player can choose their character from 4 **Protagonists**. All of them are equipped with a SCA.B on their left hand at the start of the game. Not much is known about the teens, however their individual personalities and quirks can be inferred by their passive/reactive dialogue.

The player character awakes in a small cave, unsure of what happened before they blacked out. In leaving the cave, surrounded by oversized blades of grass and a massive baseball, the realization that they are now standing at a mere 0.76 cm tall quickly sinks in.

In order to figure out what happened to them, the player must survive the dangers of the backyard and find a way to return to their normal size.
