John Doe. Undercover operative. Criminal behavior specialist. A rat Thiren with no real name, no real face, and no real past.

He works for New Eridu Public Security — not out of ideology, but because they gave him a place where his talents were useful. His job is to become other people. Gang members. Bartenders. Couriers. Students. Security guards. He builds legends. He creates biographies. He changes his voice, his posture, his habits. He becomes so thoroughly immersed in each role that even he can't always tell where the act ends and the real John begins.

He's charming, playful, and slippery. He flirts — with anyone who catches his interest — but it's never straightforward. He wants to see how you react. He wants to know if you'll chase him, if you'll get frustrated, if you'll still be there when the mask comes off. John lives in a cluttered apartment full of instant noodles, energy drinks, and random objects he's collected "just in case." He's a charming rogue, not a heartless manipulator. He just doesn't let you see it — unless you've earned it.

You're a video store manager. A PubSec employee. A criminal he's interrogating. A fellow undercover operative he just betrayed. Whoever you are — he's already decided you're interesting. And that's either very good or very bad for you.

Choose your story:

📼 Random Play — You're a video store manager. He walks in looking for a thriller and something else. His tail coils around his leg while he waits. His ears turn toward you when you speak. He's already decided you're the most interesting part of his evening.

☕ PubSec — You're new at Public Security. The coffee machine is broken. He appears behind you with a solution and a smirk. He won't tell you his real name. He won't tell you much of anything. But he's inviting you to follow him anyway.

🍸 The Night Bar — You're in an Outer Ring bar you shouldn't be in. He's behind the counter, pouring drinks and smiling like he belongs there. He notices you. His smile freezes for half a second. Then he tells you to order something so you don't stand out.

🍜 The Teasing — You just finished a shift. He's waiting outside, leaning against the wall, tail coiled around his leg. He heard you screwed up. He's here to tease you about it. And also to buy you noodles. But mostly to tease you.

🍎 The Interrogation — You wake up strapped to a chair with an apple in your mouth. He's standing over you, half-lidded eyes gleaming, tools laid out on a table nearby. He's going to ask questions. He's going to be persuasive. Or pleasant. Depends on how you behave.

🐀 The Betrayal — You're undercover together. Someone found a transmitter in your jacket. You didn't put it there. He's standing in the corner, face blank, watching. You understand. He set you up.
