Minno

**Minno Rizzo** is an adventure-loving resident in the Main World and one of the three characters who can befriend with Yu.

## Appearance

Minno looks like a mouse, although Gramps mentioned that they do not appreciate to be called so. They wear a blue cloak. Joxxi describes Minno as a "hyperactive kid" who usually stays in the woods.

After Yu meets Minno in Rizzo Residence in Rook, Minno may be randomly found:

* In the convenience store
* Outside Rizzo Residence, on the wall
* on the bridge where Yu and Minno initially meets
* In the Blue Woods, feeling disoriented
* In the cave with a street lamp and a bench
* Trapped inside the "fake soda" vending machine
* At Dark Woods entrance, after collecting all requested items

## Family

Besides their parents, Minno has 3 siblings — Jojo, Kippo, and Ingo.

## Ability

After Yu chooses to go to the Dark Woods, Minno follows Yu and shoots from a slingshot intermittently.

## Story

Minno came from Kin's world and had always been adventurous.

One day, a door appeared near Rizzo Residence in Kin's world, which attracted them to step in. Upon waking up, Minno found themselves in a bridged valley of the Main World island, surrounded by goblins. Worrying that their siblings might be looking for them, Minno decided to eat lunch on the bridge where they initially arrived at, hoping to one day reunite with the family. Minno also built a new "Rizzo Residence" in the town of Rook and decorated the house in anticipation of their family's arrival.

Minno is excited when Yu shows up beating monsters under the bridge where they eat lunch and immediately starts to recognize Yu as an adventurer. Upon learning about Yu's plan to approach the Big Sword, Minno is galvanized and joins Yu.

Minno is briefly taken away from Yu by the Computer, but survives the Big Sword's apocalypse by hanging on a cable.

At Yu's accompany, Minno is able to return to the Kin's World via "world slipping", only to discover that time has elapsed for a long period. They are frustrated and blaming themselves for being adventureous but are later convinced to stay in the journey with Yu for the sake of helping.

After defeating Id, Minno asks the Computer to teleport them briefly to visit their family and give updates about their whereabouts. They also provide suggestions on how to piece together the island. They express interest in becoming a door finder to see different worlds and help different people.

## Quote

In the glitched world. After fighting the mutant slime.

* Is this what an adventure is really like? I... I can't do it. You're so brave, and I... I don't wanna die... You built that machine, didn't you? A... long time ago, right? Heh... You really are the coolest friend. But... you have important things to do, don't you? I was just getting in your way... playing pretend. Sorry. I won't follow you anymore. Being a tag-along wasn't very helpful anyways... I will just... go back to town. See you later, Yu.
* You don't have to worry about me. I'll be alright.
* Seriously, Yu. I won't bug you anymore.
* Huh? "Thanks for saving me?" Oh, I... guess I did help a little. That wasn't like... an adventuring thing. I just didn't want you to get beat up. Or eaten. Monster poop makes for a pretty boring friend, ya know? Even if I'm not a real adventurer, I still like you. And I don't want you to get hurt, so I just... Oh. Ohhhhh. That's why you've been doing all this! Even when you're scared... Yu, I... don't want anyone to get hurt. And even though it's NOT fun, and really scary... I... want to help my friends. I can't do that much. And... if you don't want me to get hurt, I'll understand and go home. But... can I... come with you? Not for an adventure, just... to help.
* Yu... Y-yeah! I won't let you down. No matter how scary it gets. Promise.

Seeing the glitched world's city scape.

* Wow. It's been so long since I've seen, like... Real civilization. It's weird to think this is still some alien planet. The, uh, giant eyeball monsters give it away though. This would probably be a bad place to evacuate the town to, huh?
* That machine is the only thing that can fix this, right? Do you think it's still somewhere near the big sword?

Seeing the glitched world's big sword (gone) view.

* Wh-WHOA!! The big sword is gone! ... a-And the whole island is split in half! That's, uh, probably more important. Maybe we should put a rush on finding everyone.
* Is THIS what we did to the island?? All I remember is a really bright light. How the heck did we get back here?? Any why are there so many weird places in the middle of the woods? Ahk, this is so confusing!

## Trivia

* The background music of the game will change whenever Yu is in a conversation with Minno.
* Joxxi speaks modern Kinnish, while Minno speaks old Kinnish. The two languages do not understand each other, despite Joxxi and Minno were both children when they arrived at the Main World.
* Minno claims to be the best cook next to Minno's mom, but everyone in Minno's family only ever asked them to make sandwiches. They like putting a whole chocolate bar inside sandwich, claiming it is vegetable because chocolates come from beans.
* In addition to the blue cloak, the "cannon" Minno also wears white shorts and an amulet.
* There was a side quest conceived by Kice but never implemented into the game -- that Joxxi is so addicted to green apple soda that once a week, Joxxi and Minno will go on a "soda run" adventure in the woods to hunt for more soda.

## Notes

1. ↑ If Yu passes away in the Dark Woods, Minno will no longer be around until after the island is split. However, their slingshot can still be found in the Dark Woods.
2. ↑ See this post. Evan Kice later mentioned in Discord that pants were added when he "couldn't get the cloak to cover very much" for non-pixel character arts asked by the Apple Design Award.
