If you've had a chance to read the script draft for Tistow's first chapter, you'll know there's been a mention of some urchins already. This little fella is one of the two. You'll recognise him from the old story too!
We decided against aging him (backwards) as we quite like the character as he is. Same will go for Mousey once we get to him. Mousey is not the other street kid in the script however. We have a whole new character we're going to introduce.
Tag is a reference to an old Gutter Runners character called Chase. He's tiny and feisty kid who will do anything for his pals. He'll also believe anything the other kids tell him but will take no advice from adults.
