This page relates the stories behind the characters.
Our Heroes
|
Mark - Mark is the protagonist of Bad Conscience. Kif and Tif serve
as his only directors in life, and they do a bad job. Mark is constantly getting
himself into trouble with their help.
|
Tif - Tif is a rude oaf. He usually tries the direct approach when
getting Mark to do bad things: foul language, bodily functions, and general
rudeness are Tif's speciality.
|
Kif - Kif prides himself on sophistication, to the point of being
snooty. He generally tries to hatch more intricate schemes to humiliate Mark
than Tif does, although the results aren't always better. Kif fancies himself
an evil genius, but he's a bit of a romantic at heart.

Other Cast Members
|
Lonnie - Mark's roommate is hard to get along with. He's a very foul-tempered
person, and he even scares Tif and Kif. Lonnie would likely be the most regular
of the secondary characters.
|
Ariadne - Mark manages to get a date with a girl in one of his classes,
and winds up with more than he bargained for. Ariadne turns out to have two
bad consciences as well, but more improtantly, she has a nasty ex-boyfriend who
doesn't like Mark very much at all. Ariadne would probably appear in the strip
on a semi-regular basis, as Mark's on-and-off girlfriend.
|
Miller - Miller is Ariadne's jealous boyfriend. He really has it in
for Mark. There really isn't much more to be said about him. He isn't likely
to be a regular character, but he might reappear now and then.
|
|
Others - Penelope is a girl with two good consciences who might be
enticed by Mark. While no other characters have been finalized, there are
plenty of possibilities including teachers, relatives and friends.
