Hi, Guyy here. As I stated in my announcement post, I would share the writing I pulled from Chance, what was set, and the plan I had for his story. I’ll be telling the story mockup we gave and explaining other facts about him that would have been elaborated upon.
Snake Eyes
Glamour. Prestige. Immense wealth. As a young robloxian, Chance had been conceived into a life of luxury, where his every need was met, and he had everything a young child could ever dream of. Born ambidextrous, his parents had considered it to be a sign that their child would grow to be a great successor to their fortune and estate.
He’d constantly get himself into dangerous situations, just to get the feel of adrenaline coursing through his veins, even if it caused him to be in serious trouble with his parents. He’d been reprimanded and scolded many times, and yet he never changed.
Once he was of legal age, he was soon handed his parent’s casino; the same one he once visited frequently as a child.
A group of users named Pheedy, are17, and ITrapped had set free Ellernate, Minish, and Dignity, which had started a huge manhunt for all the users involved.
Except for ITrapped.
ITrapped wasn't suspected of being a part of the incident. Every media outlet was covering the incident live, which would include all of the users being shown to somehow disappear in front of everyone when they got cornered by law enforcement.
With all the chaos that had happened, everyone assumed the Darkheart had disappeared at the same time this incident occurred, but the sword had taken hold within ITrapped himself, which amplified his greed and malicious intent.
As 3 years passed, Chance stumbled upon ITrapped when he entered his parent's casino. After a quick round of Poker and a round of bloxy colas though, they quickly hit it off. Chance had no idea they had so much in common with them, how similar their tastes were. He thought he had made a great friend.
But the only reason ITrapped chose to approach Chance in the first place was because ITrapped had learned that the casino owner's son was a dealer working in the establishment. He wanted to get close enough with Chance to eventually be led to their estate, as it was rumored that their parents had the key to Banlands, as well as a key to a massive vault holding all of their wealth.
Chance always saw ITrapped as a close friend. Someone he could talk to about anything, anything at all. ITrapped saw them as nothing more than a pawn. Once he reached his goal, he’d make sure to end this so-called “friendship” immediately. But as three months went by, and their "friendship" was still going at it, he grew impatient, restless, wanting to get rid of Chance quickly and figure out the rest himself.
Seeing an opportunity to “test his luck”, ITrapped talked Chance into several games of Russian roulette, in hopes that the gun would go off on them and he’d finally be rid of him. What he wasn’t expecting, however, was Chance’s luck making him always be the last person standing.
They would always smile throughout each click and gun blast, no matter how much it scared them, as he could only feel the exhilarating rush he got from each game. With shot after shot, Chance always won. It irritated him.
ITrapped quickly got fed up, and after another game of Russian roulette with Chance surviving, the two exited the building, with Chance having a big smile from the wins he’d accumulated over time. Right when he was about to boast, ITrapped stopped him.
The two disappeared that night, with Chance's last memory seeing the darkheart manifesting into ITrapped's hand before rushing forward.
Next thing he knew, he awoke in someplace different.
(Thank you to Ram (@IDrawStuffz22) who helped write a detailed backstory)
(This backstory is pretty old and some stuff did get changed around which I have taken out from the original as well. The Next section will have the more update info)
- Chance would have never been written to be a gold-digging gambler. He would have been greedy somewhat. Best way I can explain it is that he’s greedy for bigger winnings and for exciting games (which is why he kept doing life-endangering games)
- ITrapped was gonna be written as a major plot point in Chance’s lore to show how lonely Chance felt due to him being around the wrong crowd before he got ahold of the Casino
- If you know anything about Octane from Apex Legends you know that he blew up his legs due to an incident because he tried to do a dangerous stunt to beat a top record. I took that inspiration for Chance as to make it so even though Chance KNEW what he was doing could end his life he kept going because he was cocky enough to keep testing his luck every time he won.
- Chance’s parents would be helicopter parents so he wouldn’t really pay attention to anything they would tell him about how to run the casino. So when he got the casino he didn’t know how to run it well so he would laze around or be unproductive (like gambling at his own casino)
- Another part of his story. Spade was a nice idea I had for Chance as I made Chance as another way to show Chance’s wealth as well. The bunny type Chance has is pretty expensive as they eat alot and need a big space which Chance could afford and provide as well. I wanted to show that even though Chance has these bad traits at heart he’s a good person he was just around the wrong kinds of people when he was younger.
What do you mean his Parents were Helicopter parents?
- Chance’s parents would always monitor and judge every little thing Chance did. They did it out of love but to Chance, he felt trapped and would often find himself in the wrong crowd which led him to dangerous situations that always ended with him getting sent back to his parents' house with no repercussions as you can guess because they were rich.
What’s ITrapped’s Role in the lore?
- The False narrative. ITrapped only pretended to be his friend for his own goals. Chance took their friendship for granted as they felt like they were given an actual friend for once who cared for them. ITrapped might have brought Chance to an actual game of Russian Rolette and that would have been a catalyst for any sane person’s friendship with ITrapped. As mad as Chance was he couldn't shake that good feeling of adrenaline when he won and every time he survived a gunshot. So inevitably he went back to ITrapped.
What’s Spade’s role in the lore?
- The good Chance left behind. Spade was something in his life that he genuinely loved with all of his heart and would do anything for his bunny. When Chance would have a bad day or would break down in his own private quarters he always found comfort in playing with Spade or just holding him.
What was the plan for Chance?
- I planned to explore more into his subsurface traits that are considered bad. Dive into what makes him seek out adrenaline-inducing situations, why he kept being around the wrong people, etc. I also planned on diving into the relationship with ITrapped and Chance even further to show the manipulation Chance was put through by ITrapped. I was going to leave up their relationship to the interpretation of it being platonic or romantic as it would have been better to see how people took the information given to them about these two. I would have planned on showing more traits of Chance being insanely lucky which to those around him would make him look like a walking anomaly.
