Big Red

Soda Pop

Texan soda pop Prepotente drinks before every battle, one of five daily sodas his mother's rule allows.

Story so far

Prepotente pulls and drinks a red potion-looking bottle before the raid on Club Vanquisher. Asked what it is, he explains it is soda pop called Big Red, from Texas, which is where cowboys live, and offers Carl one. He always drinks one before battle.

He keeps a collection: sarsaparilla, which he also quite enjoys, and his mother's beloved Diet 7-Up — regular 7-Up being from Saint Louis, Missouri, though he doesn't know where the diet variety comes from. His mother gave him a hard rule of no more than five soda pops a day, because too many make him hyper. He slips into past tense describing it. Unlike normal consumables, the empty bottle doesn't disappear; he pulls it back into his own inventory.

Appearance

A bottle of bright red soda pop, drunk straight from the bottle and returned empty to his inventory.

Role

Prepotente's pre-battle ritual and a lingering tie to his mother's rules.

Relationships

Prepotente — His pre-battle drink of choice, capped at five sodas daily.
Carl — Offered one before the raid and politely declines.
