Previous Events

Before Ruslue betrayed Ragdoll and made her endure the Feli Experiments, they were partners in crime. Ruslue employed Ragdoll and her friends to assassinate Lionel so they could take over the country of Feli. Ruslue promised Ragdoll a special place in the government once the world was hers. The Feli Experiments then began, and Ruslue manipulated Ragdoll into cooperating with being a test subject. The Experiments gave her the name Ragdoll, as parts of her skin were replaced with cloth. Her previous name is unknown.

The rest of the world found out about the Experiments and The Great War began. During this war, Armadillo faced off with Ruslue and chased her back to the Portal to Limbo. They tried to rescue Ragdoll, but she was furious that they had fought Ruslue. She declared them arch enemies. She began her work to bring Ruslue back from Limbo.

Trivia

 * The name is based on the saying "don't speak ill of the dead," as Ruslue was considered dead while in Limbo. The title was said by Ragdoll as she warned Armadillo that Ruslue would have her revenge.
