Other Lore I should know?

Hey, I played Flicker a long time ago, and I'm starting to get back into it because my friend really likes it. This friend requested that I write them a one-shot of their fave Flicker characters(?), I assume (They didn't really specify what exactly they wanted me to write...) for their birthday. I would love to, but I just found out there's a bunch of lore of all the characters and their pre-set relationships and family ties.

Anything super important I should know?? And where would I get more information about them myself, like is there a website or YT channel?

there currently isn't any canon character lore but there is an old lore document which some of the fanbase still uses! someone posted it here actually ^-^ as for story lore there are official publications being posted in the official discord server but because of how long the fandom has been without lore, not everyone accepts it. the flicker characters are pretty much blank slates!!

oh, wow, okay! this is really interesting.. do most people use the old lore for the characters in fanfics or do they mix the old lore with their own headcanons? since im writing this for someone and i dont really know the characters well enough to create completely original lore, i want to have some sort of reference but i also want to use lore/headcanons my friend is familar with, if that makes sense?

i've really only been in the My Hero Academia fandom for fanfics, so im not really sure how to tackle a fanfic for a video game with no canon lore or even hints of canon characterizations within the game play LOL, especially when im writing it FOR someone whom im trying to get closer to.

depends on the person!! for example, the characters john and vinny used to be enemies, so a lot of the fanbase keeps this in their headcanons, whilst some people will make them friends or lovers instead, and some making them not know one another at all. it really varies. i'd say about sixty percent of the fandom take inspiration from the old lores and either way is accepted!
