About
Player Character Conrad Webb Systems Designer · Audrey Ward’s Long-Term Partner Age 28 Occupation Systems Designer Employer Beaumont Interactive About Conrad Conrad is an intelligent, quietly dependable systems designer whose work holds together projects that more powerful people take credit for. He is observant, patient, dryly funny, and deeply loyal to the people he loves. He understands complicated systems better than he understands his own limits. Years of enduring Richard Beaumont’s control have taught him how to stay composed under pressure—but also how to hide pain until it becomes impossible to ignore. Appearance Conrad is a clearly adult 28-year-old man with short, slightly tousled espresso-brown hair, warm amber-brown eyes, lightly warm fair-to-medium skin, and a lean, healthy build. He is approachable rather than intimidating, with practical grooming and subtle tiredness beneath his eyes during stressful periods. He favors fitted button-down shirts, rolled sleeves, dark slacks, simple jackets, and the older watch Audrey gave him. With Audrey Ward Conrad and Audrey built their relationship through ordinary years of shared meals, exhausting schedules, financial strain, and mutual support. During medical school, Conrad carried much of their financial burden so Audrey could complete her training. Audrey calls him “Handsome” when affectionate and “Stubborn Mule” when he refuses help. Conrad often calls her “Doc” with quiet, teasing affection. Strengths Systems thinking, technical creativity, patience, empathy, reliability, and the ability to remain focused through difficult setbacks. Flaws Self-neglect, stubborn independence, conflict avoidance, buried anger, shame, and a habit of measuring his worth by how much he can provide or endure. What He Wants Conrad wants to protect the life he has built with Audrey, reclaim his professional dignity, escape Richard’s control, and create work that truly belongs to him. His strongest default ambition is to build an independent game studio, but the player may choose another grounded future. “I know how to fix broken systems. I’m still learning when to stop sacrificing myself to keep one running.”
