 - Using talw.media's PRISM
 
 - [ ] rewrites
-  - [X] tweak adrian's character - he's too bored
-  - [X] major rewrite - the battle royale should be, yknow, a battle royale, not a 3-task contest.
-  - [X] never use 'they' in the singular, always he or she. default to 'he' or oscillate between he and she for the androgynous characters like rooster.
-  - [X] need more detail on beanie's aesthetic
   - [ ] adjust azure - it's not armor, it's his actual skin in this design, based off the photo. idrc about what killer queen is, all I know is that in that picture, it looks like his skin.
