## **Story**

### **Common Route**

DJ Roadkill is introduced when they interrupt Kalei and Ramón’s welcome ceremony to say that the whole system is elitist bullshit. He tries to get the crowd to join in with no luck. When Kalei and Ramón begin explaining how everyone died, it is revealed that DJ Roadkill was killed by a police officer pushing them in front of a moving car during a peaceful protest that the police turned into a riot. Ramón invites DJ Roadkill to come to hell and watch the police chief be tortured, but he has a weak stomach and turns him down. DJ Roadkill asks what happens if they don’t want to go to Utopia or Hell and Kalei mentions staying in Limbo though warns of it’s dangers.

After the welcome ceremony, DJ Roadkill lingers behind, following neither Kalei nor Ramón. They leave with Rosita, Mitts, and Player to explore Limbo. The group begins bemoaning the state of Limbo and DJ Roadkill admonishes them. Soon after, he heads off with Mitts, separating from the group. Later, Mitts mentions seeing DJ Roadkill dancing in the parking lot and that they met up with a fan who’s offering housing for the night. Player goes and finds them in the parking lot. DJ Roadkill gives player four options of what to call him. They will be called by that name for most of the game.

DJ Roadkill leads player to the Twilight Church where they’ll be staying for the night. DJ Roadkill swings from the chandelier showcasing their acrobatic skills. After breaking the fourth wall, he ropes player into helping them set up their equipment for them to perform. Player can then ask about their mask or their name. If pressed about his name, he becomes pissed off.

The group heads to get dressed and DJ Roadkill breaks the fourth wall again before searching for something to wear from Faye’s personal collection. DJ Roadkill changes with Rosita and Mitts before heading out to be the DJ for the night.

In the morning, DJ Roadkill helps the group clean up before telling everyone of their plan to stay in Limbo. He empathizes with the people living in Limbo and wants to help. Rosita and Mitts, however, leave as soon as they find out that geists were once people. DJ Roadkill sticks to their guns and stays in Limbo.

### **DJ Roadkill’s Route**

Player waits for DJ Roadkill at the church and then they head out together to scope out Limbo. DJ Roadkill talks a bit about his life on Earth living in a low-income area. Wandering farther into the city, DJ Roadkill shows off the rusty bat they found, saying they’ll protect player. They are attempting to map out the way to the mall when they hear someone calling for help.

He makes his way farther into the city with player, searching for the voice to help them. They find a geist instead and the two take off running. They run into a dead end and DJ Roadkill takes out the bat to attack, but is pounced on by the geist. They’re rescued by Noel who defeats the geist, and takes them and player to his house to recover from the attack as DJ Roadkill has been infected. Player carries DJ Roadkill.

Noel performs first aid on DJ Roadkill but is unable to fully remove the geist infection. He wraps DJ Roadkill’s arm and explains that he's been tainted by the geist. Noel mentions that Kalei could heal DJ Roadkill and asks if they’re willing to take the trials now. DJ Roadkill turns him down. DJ Roadkill says that they’ve always done good in the world and that it’s bullshit that it’s not enough to get into Utopia and that the system is unfair. Noel says that’s how it’s always been, but DJ Roadkill insists that it’s elitist. The player then decides if they want to stay or not as well and Noel offers to answer questions about geists and The Neighborhood.

DJ Roadkill then asks what Noel’s going to do about Hordes. Noel says he’ll steal back what Hordes took and DJ Roadkill is onboard to help. Noel tells them that they’ll need a certain brand of juice to lure Hordes out and distract him and that they’ll have to scavenge for them. DJ Roadkill is excited to go dumpster diving. Chance warns the group of rats in the dumpsters and asks for any extra provisions they find since it’s his and Malcolm’s anniversary. DJ Roadkill and player find the juice, though DJ Roadkill gets bitten up by rats.

The group retires for the night in Noel’s house, DJ Roadkill taking the bed and player taking the couch. Player is awoken in the night by DJ Roadkill screaming. Upstairs, DJ Roadkill is dealing with the effects of the infection while Noel watches over them. Player helps Noel stabilize DJ Roadkill. Noel brings up the possibility of amputation as a solution, but DJ Roadkill says he'd rather go for the holy water. Noel agrees, but he warns that if they turn into a geist then he will kill them.

After Noel leaves, player chats with DJ Roadkill for a bit before they decide to take a walk. If affection is high enough, then player can come with him. During the walk, DJ Roadkill is uncharacteristically quiet which player comments on. DJ Roadkill then talks about their experience having a weak immune system. He mentions that this isn’t the worst experience they’ve had dealing with an infection and talk about how it was an extra struggle with being low-income. They then talk about having to wear a mask to school which made them stand out until they turned it into a trend. He also talks about being assigned male at birth and intersex. Upon returning to Noel’s house, DJ Roadkill and player decide to share the bed and cuddle to keep warm.

In the morning, DJ Roadkill is wearing his mask again despite it being broken. Noel explains the plan after some lighthearted banter and head bonks. The plan is to distract Hordes and his men by planting the juice in Desolation Row then raiding Hordes’s stash. Noel gives player and DJ Roadkill a feather each from his wings explaining that it’ll make them light as a feather.

In the city, Noel flies to the top of the building where they’ll be doing reconnaissance, leaving player and DJ Roadkill to walk up. DJ Roadkill instead uses the feather and gets a piggyback ride from player. Noel keeps watch while player and DJ Roadkill sit around waiting for a while. Noel offers his cards to pass the time, but DJ Roadkill turns him down. DJ Roadkill instead asks to play twenty questions.

During the first round of questioning, player can learn that DJ Roadkill considers himself a furry or learn that they’re half Thai and half Puerto Rican but aren’t very connected to either. They then ask if player thinks life has any meaning, and if so, what it is. Saying that the purpose it to reproduce and continue the gene pool upsets DJ Roadkill. Next, player can learn about DJ Roadkill’s preference for Hell or Utopia, or can learn DJ Roadkill’s off stage name which is Jesús Joya or JJ for short. Player then chooses what to call him for the rest of the game.

Soon it’s time to enact the plan. Noel checks to see if the feathers are working and finds that DJ Roadkill used theirs already. He makes player carry them on the trip back down too. Player becomes nervous about the long jump down, but DJ Roadkill covers their eyes and reassures them.

Once they reach Desolation Row, they plant the juice boxes and get the attention of the Tank Top Men. They then run off with player guiding DJ Roadkill. They hit a dead end but luckily another Tank Top Man shows up and calls them back to look for the juice. They both then head to the mall where they meet up with Noel.

In Hordes’s throne room, DJ Roadkill is pissed off about the amount of resources that Hordes has stockpiled away from those who need them. DJ Roadkill decides he's going to grab as much as he can in addition to the holy water. Suddenly Hordes shows up with Charles, a rat Poltergeist. Charles attacks and Noel fights him for a bit before telling the group to run.

After reaching the city, player uses the holy water to heal DJ Roadkill’s infection. Noel once more tries to convince them to take the trials but DJ Roadkill turns him down with a smile. Noel admits to being a bit happy that they’re both staying. A group hug ensues.

Back in The Neighborhood, DJ Roadkill announces that he's going to dethrone Hordes and redistribute his wealth, calling it La Revolución. Together the group begins gaining territory from Hordes and making it livable. Noel can also cry tears from happiness now. The group also has Hordes’s car now thanks to some help from Mitts. However, Hordes has closed off the mall which has the most reliable source of clean water. Rosita also joins the group as her trials were going terribly and she’s now on her way to Hell.

DJ Roadkill unveils their plan to deal with Hordes permanently. Previously, he was able to capture Charles, learned to control and speak to him, and has been reading him anti-capitalist books. Their plans involves a full-force charge on Hordes while using Charles to turn his rats against him. Noel warns not to kill Hordes as there’s a strong risk of him turning into a Poltergeist or a Revenant. Noel agrees to the plan but says a prayer for safety and good luck anyway.

The group gathers all the residents of The Neighborhood so DJ Roadkill can explain the plan to them. DJ Roadkill rallies everyone with an impassioned speech and new outfit. The group heads into battle with Charles and the residents of The Neighborhood united. At the barricade, the Tank Top Men offer up some water from the fountain in exchange for The Neighborhood’s surrender which pisses off DJ Roadkill. He charges in with Charles and the attack begins.

One of the Tank Top Men grabs hold of player, holding a switchblade to their throat. DJ Roadkill continues the attack and player is saved by Noel brandishing a paintball gun. DJ Roadkill deals the finishing hit and soon all three are back to back facing off against the hoards of Tank Top Men. Charles shows up with all of Hordes’s rats and provides much needed backup. DJ Roadkill and player head into the mall while Noel stays to deal with the rest of the Tank Top Men.

At the mall, DJ Roadkill and player are met by a surprisingly serious Hordes. They try to convince him to give up his resources and reopen the mall, but he’s not having it. Hordes reveals a large rat mech called N.T.R. or Nightmare Termination Rat. DJ Roadkill has a good laugh about the acronym before the real fight begins for the title of Ruler of Limbo. DJ Roadkill and Charles seem to have the upper hand until the N.T.R. begins billowing out steam. Hordes uses the steam to his advantage, hiding and striking from random directions. Charles manages to get a hold of the mech and DJ Roadkill jumps onto it to attack the mech directly.

The N.T.R. breaks from DJ Roadkill’s last strike and Hordes exits the mech saying that he couldn’t stand to hurt Charles. DJ Roadkill approaches with the bat and threatens Hordes one last time telling him to surrender. Hordes says he’d rather be stricken down than face the Original Sinner. Hordes gets the jump on DJ Roadkill in their confusion, wrestling them to the ground and beginning to strangle them. Player grabs hold of the bat and has the option to either knock Hordes out or kill him.

If player chooses to kill Hordes, Noel interrupts player and begins dousing Hordes with holy water. Noel is in a panic. Hordes’s body is surrounded by a dark aura, powerful and terrifying to behold. DJ Roadkill reaches out to Noel who slaps him away. DJ Roadkill orders player to get Noel out of there while he ties up Hordes. Noel says that Hordes would have turned into a Revenant if he’d died and most likely would have destroyed Limbo. They then head to the Garden where Kalei and Dominion are waiting.

At the garden, the ground begins to shake from demonic energy. Dominion says that it must be the Original Sinner, Lucifer, explaining that Hordes had been in cahoots with them. With a smile, Dominion demands that Limbo be turned over to Utopia. When Lucifer goes for player, DJ Roadkill fearfully accepts the deal. Lucifer cannot harm anything related to Utopia, in accordance with the pact. Lucifer begins to cry and then vanishes.

DJ Roadkill is uncertain of their decision once Lucifer disappears. Dominion assures them that all is well and that he will also reinstate Noel’s Powers status. After the angels leave, the group heads to the Twilight Church for a drink. Later, if DJ Roadkill’s affection is low, player and DJ Roadkill find themselves growing distant. Player moves out of Noel’s house, but misses the company. They try to reconnect with DJ Roadkill, but it doesn’t work out. Player refuses to leave the house for several weeks. DJ Roadkill and Noel go to check up on them, but player doesn’t let them in.

Knocking Hordes out instead frees DJ Roadkill from his grasp. DJ Roadkill is up and joking as usual in no time. Player ties up Hordes shibari-style and gives his crown to DJ Roadkill. DJ Roadkill suggests he be taken prisoner for the time being.

Back at the fountain, DJ Roadkill climbs to the top of the statue to announce their victory. The Neighborhood celebrates with the clean water from the fountain. Noel flies in and tells DJ Roadkill and player that they have visitors in the Garden. Specifically, Kalei and Dominion. Noel says to bring Hordes to the Garden. Dominion lets the group know that he heard about Noel’s prayer to the Powers Seraphim. Dominion asks for Hordes to be handed over and Hordes begins to tremble and cry with terror at the sight of him. DJ Roadkill reluctantly agrees but Noel is hesitant, stating that bad humans get sent to Hell for Lucifer to deal with.

Faye shows up and agrees that Hordes should be sent to Hell, which Hordes is somewhat happy about. Noel agrees to give her Hordes. DJ Roadkill turns down Dominion’s offer to make Limbo a part of Utopia. Dominion concedes, but says he’ll at least reinstate Noel’s status as a Powers angel. Dominion says it will take some time, but Noel is honored regardless. Before leaving, Dominion asks where Hordes had been hiding. Noel is about to speak when DJ Roadkill cuts him off. Noel and DJ Roadkill collapse as soon as Dominion is back through the portal, feeling overcome with the intensity of the situation.

A couple weeks later, things are improving steadily in The Neighborhood. Water from the fountain is being pumped into The Neighborhood and Hordes’s resources are being redistributed. DJ Roadkill has also been given free access to the Twilight Church to put on events whenever they want. He puts on a live performance every Sunday.

If DJ Roadkill’s affection is not high enough, then we see DJ Roadkill, player, and Noel finishing up distributing goods for the week. DJ Roadkill suggests a dip in the fountain, and Noel says that the last one in is doing dishes before taking off flying. DJ Roadkill then kicks player’s ankle to get a head start. Player and DJ Roadkill have a splash fight in the fountain.

In the best ending, DJ Roadkill appears to possibly be in a throuple situation with player and Noel. DJ Roadkill writes songs for player and calls them his muse. Together, the two dance and talk about what they love about each other.
