Back when we were creating characters for the original Freedom Force, Robb created one character that he quickly became very attached to. I however, felt that he didn't really fit the aesthetic of the first game. He seemed too dark and menacing to me. We decided to put him on hold for a while. Robb admits that he can become pretty stubborn when it comes to his creations. I promised him we'd revisit the character later.
Sure enough, as soon as we began work on Freedom Force vs. The Third Reich, Robb was already reworking the character. Finally, I said okay, we've got a slightly darker theme with World War II, but the character is still not there. I gave him a few more suggestions, trying to move the character in a more tragic direction. Robb removed the mouth from his mask, set his eyes deeper and darker, touched up his costume and suddenly the character was telling a story. Boom. Tombstone came together.
