The Sequence
Original IP Development
The Sequence is an original IP that combines auto racing with the rich universe and strategic planning of an RPG and the action of a first-person shooter. Players may join one of three factions:
Legendarion, Draketosser, or Palejumper.
Racing Faction
Palejumper Motorsport
Palejumper Motorsport is the most secretive of all racing teams because of their singular future focus. Palejumper historically has struggled to recruit the caliber of driver or scientist of a Legendarion, yet they believe they are easily the superior team, and that time will prove them right. To compete at the highest levels, they have had to get creative with various questionable incentives.

Realized Composition
Signature Moments: Characters
Teams race with a handpicked crew consisting of three character archetypes: Pilots, Protectors, and Navigators. Each character has necessary skills that are enhanced or diminished by the vehicle and its cargo, which heavily influence the outcome.
Pilots
Pilots lead the crews and are the main attraction of Sequence races. A good pilot can make an average vehicle or crew exceptional, and vice versa. They are unarmed and focus solely on racing.
Protectors
Protectors are the muscle of Sequence races. Hired guns who ensure safe passage, they are necessary when precious cargo is on board. They carry both heavy hand weapons and backpack-deployed ordnance.
Navigators
It’s hard to get anywhere without a good Navigator, who are experts not only at wayfinding, but at trajectories and logistics. Navigators are critical for plotting the most efficient course to the finish line.
