===Before Drawn to Life===

Mike grew up in [[Belleview]] with her parents and older sister, [[Heather]]. Eventually, a travelling carnival was invited to visit the town, so the family went to visit. While at the carnival, the kids had won two plush animals resembling [[Mari]] and [[Jowee]]. On their way home, a heavy storm began, and that, along with an unpaved road and some reckless driving, caused a major car accident between the family and [[Deputy Snyder]], killing Mike's parents, severely injuring Heather, and putting Mike in a coma.

In later prints of ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]'' and in all prints of ''[[Drawn to Life Collection]]'', this story was changed. Mike's family was camping in the woods, when Mike began to climb a tree to catch fireflies. However, the tree branch he was on began to snap, and he fell to the ground, passing out. After the events of the games occur, Mike wakes up from the Raposa world and contines camping. The events of ''[[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]]'' do not follow these events.

Now in a comatose state and holding onto his memory of the [[Jowee]] doll, Mike was transported to the [[Raposa]] realm, now appearing older, alongside his sister, who was somehow transformed into a Raposa. He was eventually captured by [[Wilfre]] and is left in [[Rapocity]], where the [[Hero]] finds him and two [[Generic Raposa Characters|RapoKids]]. The four of them return to [[Rapoville]], where Mike is introduced to [[Mari]], who asks what happened to his ears. Mike responds that nothing is wrong with his ears and that he doesn't know where he is. He then leaves to see the [[Mayor]], who welcomes Mike into the village. Mike is convinced that he is dreaming, and begins to wonder when he'll wake up.

After [[Wilfre]] is defeated, he meets with [[Dr. Cure]], who examines his human ears, remarking that she's never seen anything like them. She then refers him to [[Isaac]], saying that Isaac could probably make him a set of fake ears. She promises to keep researching his ears, annoying Mike and prompting him to walk away.

When the group arrives at [[Wilfre's Wasteland]], Mike watches as Jowee asks the [[Creator]] to restore color to the world. Wilfre then kidnaps Jowee to explain why [[Mari]] defected to his side earlier in the game. This kidnapping scares Mike, and the others, back onto Turtle Rock, where they wait until right before the final battle with Wilfre. After Jowee is released from the [[Hall of Darkness]], he continues to stand up to Wilfre. When Mike asks him what Wilfre showed him, Jowee simply deflects the question. Later, Mari leads the group of Turtle Rock villagers in prayer, which helps the Hero defeat Wilfre and save Heather.

The group then returns to Rapoville, where Mari asks the Creator to use the [[Eternal Flame]] to send Mike home. Mike asks one last time what Wilfre showed Mari and Jowee, and Mari reveals that Wilfre "showed me you, Mike." The Raposa then begin to disappear, and Mike begins waking up from his coma with Heather, who is Human again and has also returned to the Human realm, next to him. It turns out the Raposa realm was created when Mike fell into his coma and that Wilfre was trying to keep him in his current state to keep the realm intact. In the Raposa realm, Mike can still be seen sleeping in the [[Bedroom]], implying that the Raposa world lived on after he woke up despite seemly vanishing from existence.
