Nico White is a member of the White Family, a family of adventurers with the ability to access the Mod Power Imagination. After being overrun by zombies while mining, Nico awakens the ability himself, using it to craft a Super Long Stone Sword. He decides to fulfill his dream of reaching the World's End, like his father left to do himself, and sets out on a journey.
