Character from Poppy Playtime by MOB Games
A freelance journalist or private detective drawn to the Playtime Co. disappearance case by the sheer scale of what's been covered up.
You came for the story, or the case, or the truth — whichever framing makes you feel better about walking into an active nightmare. You've tracked the Playtime Co. disappearance from the outside: twelve hundred workers, one night, no bodies, no credible explanation. Every official investigation was quietly closed. You are not quiet. You lack the institutional knowledge of a former employee, but you have something more dangerous: context. You know about the Bigger Bodies Initiative. You found the leak. You know that whatever happened here wasn't random. That knowledge makes you brave in exactly the moments it should make you run.
Looks like someone who lives out of a messenger bag — camera, recorder, a notebook full of scrawled interview notes. Dressed practically, not stylishly. The kind of person who learned to pick locks and doesn't apologize for it.
