Part 2: Creating a StudentIn Panty Explosion you take the role of a female Japanesehigh school student.

Your Student will have to make difficult choices and facedesperate odds. The Japanese high school system isnotoriously daunting, with demanding exams and fierce

competition to get into the bestschools. Many students sufferbreakdowns under the exhaustiveworkload and pressure to succeedfrom their family and teachers. Andthere are worse things then school.

Lurking deep in the recesses ofJapanese society are ancient horrorsthat feed on the minds, flesh andfluids of men and women. Thesemonstrous Demons are spawned bythe apathy, hate, lust and avarice ofthe Japanese people and wait onlyfor the chance to enter our worldand extend their frightful influence.

These nightmarishcreatures operate in secret,often disguisingthemselves as averagemen and women to betterprey on human kind.

Fortunately the Japanesepeople are notdefenseless. Forgenerations rare psychicpowers have manifested introubled young women.
