Acid Rain World Abaddon Reborn Trooper Short Story Now Online

March 6, 2018March 6, 2018 by C.I.A.D.

The Acid Rain World not only has an impressive catalog of characters, but a rich backstory as well. Our good friend Kit Lau has done an amazing job in bringing the characters from his World to life.

Today, via the Acid Rain World Facebook Page, readers were treated to a backstory on one of the Abaddon Reborn Troopers. Here’s a snippet from the post:

Piloting ranged SAs only require one to pull a trigger, but to pilot melee combat SAs require one to possess superb skills and reflexes. Seasoned in all sorts of combat arts, Douglas believed this was his chance to shine, a shortcut to the top. Therefore he, much like everyone else, took part in the SA games hosted in the Tartarus arena, and the result did indeed rewrite his life.

We’ve mirrored the full post here, so make sure to read more below to check it out. What are your thoughts on this Acid Rain World short story? Sound off after the break on the Cobra Island Forums!
