This is an excerpt of the relevant chapters of the 'Secrets of Shadoloo' book
for Street Fighter - The Storytelling Game. I haven't typed in the entire
book - if I were to do so, I'd be mad and lame before I got through the thing.
Mriganka - Island country off the eastern coast of Thailand. Monarchy
established in 1975. Land area: unknown. Population: unknown. Main industry:
unknown.
- New World Dictionary.
Off the coast of Thailand, a ministry of evil thrives. On an island of men,
machines and madness, a fortress awaits. Crime festers like the ripe fruit
of corruption in this reclusive hideaway. When you mention the island,
whisper its name, for the mere mention of this bastion of evil can
send those who know of its evil into flights of terror. It is called Mriganka.
Deep under the terrible architecture of the surface, the dreaded crime lord,
M. Bison, plots to conquer the world. From here, the tentacles of his criminal
monstrosity reach out to conquer and exploit. Despair and suffering flows
from Mriganka to every corner of the world. World governments are either
powerless to oppose it or mysteriously unwilling to destroy it.
Street Fighters, however, will not stomach such injustice. Action calls!
They hack their way through the mighty jungles of the mainland! They swim
through shark-infested waters! They risk their lives and very souls to gain
a glimpse of the world's greatest fortress of evil!
