Well I thought my life was over and would fade into darkness. Oh how I wish to be enveloped by sweet nothing, but no. I’m sitting in some kind of afterlife waiting room. It smells like eggs in here. Well I guess at least I’m not alone in this god forsaken place. By my side is my estranged brother, Robin. I guess he was killed not too long after me. Pretty neat if you think about it. I can’t believe I was about to turn my life around only to be killed by a drunk wizard named Flint. Flint! Who names their kid Flint? Anyways, this is my final message to the world: life starts with pain and ends with pain. All I know is pain and all I smell is eggs. Goodbye forever.

Everything was going according to plan. So I thought. The city was going up in flames (it was a beautiful sight) and those two nitwits kept putting them out. They eventually caught my henchmen in the act. His unloyal ass led them to me in my office. Not cool. 

To my surprise the one beside the bumbling wizard was my brother, Robin. At least he looked like Robin. Half the time he acted as someone named Macy or something, I don’t know. I thought I hated him for letting my parents neglect me like they did, but when I saw him an overwhelming sense of forgiveness came over me. We hugged and I vowed to never commit an evil act and then BLAM! I was shot by that spreak (spell-freak) (I guess that’s a pretty sick burn in the wizarding world). My last and final action was to write this because the people deserve to know the truth. Goodbye cruel world.

So the first part of my plan didn’t go as planned, but still ended up working out for me. Two imbeciles somehow put an end to the bank robbery, but as the mayor I was able to turn the story around and make myself look like the hero. My idiot constituents will believe anything as long as I’m wearing a suit. I’m still in the good graces in my city, so things are looking good.

I’ve given my henchmen instructions to set off a series of fires throughout the city. There’s nothing better than the smell of small businesses going up in smoke! I need to figure out how to stop these two fools that stopped me the first time. It shouldn’t be too hard considering one is a sorry excuse for a wizard. (I’ve heard he’s never gotten a spell right).

Well where do I even start? My name is Magnus Nimbus. Growing up I was completely neglected by my parents. I was used as the house’s garden gnome, which might not sound too bad, but to say it was awful would be an understatement. I was out there in the rain, snow, and sleet day in and day out. Growing up like that takes a toll and at a certain point I started to spend every second in my pointy hat plotting my revenge. 

My first move was to win the trust of the town that saw my tragic childhood and did nothing about it. Easily I became mayor in my Tri-State area city. All it took was kissing a few babies and I was well on my way of deploying my evil plan. 

I had to be careful not to get caught so I could continue my reign of terror, so I found a rent henchmen site and got my own. The first job I gave my unnamed assistant was to rob the most successful bank in town. It went just as I had planned. A great step in creating madness in this hell hole.
