The Protagonist Dies is a quest taking place during a mostly defensive war that the Alliance leads against an aggressive species known as 'pinkos'. And yeah, the protagonist actually dies (both of them). By Bromeliad.

Story

The Protagonist Dies is a space operatic story set in the Rastin-Vresch Continuity. It originally starred John, an unassuming Qal janitor unexpectedly promoted to a Gunnery Sergeant.

A protagonist (from the Greek πρωταγωνιστής protagonistes, "one who plays the first part, chief actor") is the main character (the central or primary personal figure) of a literary, theatrical, cinematic, video game, or musical narrative, around whom the events of the narrative's plot revolve and with whom the audience is intended to share the most empathy
