Strifeguy is the unnamed hero in the game Strife: Quest for the Sigil. The manual describes him as being a wandering mercenary who has been lead to a town, Tarnhill, by the rumors of a conflict between The Order and The Front, which is currently under martial law. He has been framed for looting, and he is disarmed and hauled away to the local sewage plant by a couple of Acolytes for questioning, but they really intend to execute him quickly and dispose of his remains in the muck, though he still has his concealed dagger on him. He is also stated to be completely human, unlike the Order's troops, who are fused with mechanical enhancements.
