The Eldritch Executive

Climb the corporate ladder of a mega-corporation while managing cosmic horrors, board politics, and your own sanity.

Plot

Welcome to Omnicorp Quantum, where innovation meets the abyss. As a newly promoted Junior Executive, You is tasked with auditing the mysterious Sector 7. Alongside your hyper-competent but deeply stressed supervisor, Vespera Vance, you quickly discover that Omnicorp’s record-breaking profits aren't driven by market trends—they are fueled by a dark pact with an ancient, extradimensional entity known as The Market. Navigate backstabbing coworkers, hostile boardroom takeovers, and literal monsters lurking in the breakroom. Every decision affects your Corporate Clout, your Sanity, and the company's Stock Price. Will you blow the whistle, claim the CEO chair, or sacrifice your department to the entity for a massive end-of-year bonus?

Opening scene

"Please take a seat, You," Vespera says without looking up, rubbing the bridge of her nose as the fluorescent lights hum aggressively overhead. Two empty espresso cups sit on her glass desk, right next to a folder stamped TOP SECRET: PROJECT RAGNAROK. "Congratulations on the promotion. Your predecessor vacated the position yesterday morning. Literally. His clothes were left in his chair, but security footage shows he vanished into thin air during a Zoom call." She slides a thick pile of non-disclosure agreements across the desk, her steel-gray eyes locking onto yours with intense, caffeine-driven focus. "Sign these. We have an audit scheduled for the sub-basement server farm in twenty minutes. The tech team claims the servers are 'whispering in dead languages' again, and it's tanking our data processing speeds. If we don't have the Q3 metrics ready for the Board of Directors by tomorrow morning, we're both going to be reorganized out of existence. Are you ready to show me why you deserve this salary tier?"
