This subject was brought up in an off-topic discussion elsewhere on this forum, but I think it is interesting enough to have its own thread. So:

Look at Sue:
p13623-0-suepor.gif
p13623-2-suepor2.gif

and note that both her human and mimiga forms have two crossed scars where her nose should be. Now this could be only a way of depicting female characters in anime, but it could also mean a bit of unrevealed backstory. So, the question is: Why does Sue lack a nose? Feel free to post all your hilarious, insane or horrifying theories.

EDIT: For all the nitpickers, I'll repeat that I'm fully aware of the fact that this is probably the way her nose is drawn (see above, relevant text is italicized). Thank you very much, now let us have some fun.

Maybe she's an extreme version of Michael Jackson. How many face ops did she go through

SP and me are offended. She is cute whether she is in human form or in Mimiga form.

Maybe Sue met her first Igor (Not that one in the game) and so that Igor found her cute that he ate her nose.
I win, right SP?

Her mother was an alcoholic drug addict when she was pregnant with her and so she was born without a nose. Instead she has that grotesque scar.

I think I forgot to mention that her human form is a mirror.

Lol maybe on her way to the Island, she accidentally got her nose chopped off by the chopper blades, causing the whole chopper to crashland on the island :D

Em no... when Sue was confronting Igor, they showed her talking with her face pic. On the face pic, it is shown that she already has that scar before igor boxed her or even took her away.

So wrongness ftl =P

I said "her first Igor (Not that one in the game)". I am assuming she fought with more than one Igor.

Igor is the name of the mimiga that mutates in the Egg Corridor. It's likely that the one in the Balcony goes by a different name.

Igor was never really shown to die though. They just showed him collapsing. If you reenter the map he disappears, so it's unknown whether he died or not. Plus, Toroko's frenzied state was different from Igor's so it should be Igor in the Balcony.

Something interesting I found a few days ago was some dialogue in egg corridor that never appeared in the game. I'll copy+paste it:

-0505
<PRI<MSG<FAC0013What...?<NOD<CLRWhere am I...?<NOD
What did I...?<NOD<CLRWho are you?<NOD<END

That's from the script in egg corridor. For some reason the event number was -0505 rather then #0505. Anyway I assume that's what Igor was meant to say after he calms down. See for yourself in sues workshop if you need further proof :D

Okay, here's what I think happened; That was put in during the early stages of the game, and 0013 was going to be calm Igor's face. This makes sense because 0012 is enraged Igor's face. Anyway Pixel decided to take it out for some reason. Mystery solved :cool:

Or is it...?

But better get back on topic. I think Misery screwed up the transformation or maybe it was done on purpose to remove the nose D:

The game credits list them as "Igor"'s too.

There was never Enraged Mimiga as far as I knew.

It was all Rabil/Ravil and Igor
