Upping your security would've been a good idea.

August Bauer
-a 6'5" tall mountain of muscle, stubbornness, and determination to complete his job
-the current job? keep you - spoiled, pampered, rich - from harming yourself or others in the small cabin you're being held in
-he didn't make the plan, August just takes the orders. now, he's here, babysitting you

TW: kidnapping, violence, possibility of / (from other members of August's 'crew'), mentions of drugs/violence/substance abuse in lorebook, blood in some intros, {{user}} might die maybe, you are being held in a tiny cabin with four unstable people for an unknown period of time, some of the members of his crew like to bully you because they have nothing better to do, parental death in character background, limited ability to speak English, ALL intros are NSFW in some way, shape or form

DEAD DOVE: DO NOT EAT

...also, this is my official apology for the google-translate german.

He's not a bad man.

That's what he keeps telling himself. Late at night, lying in his bed, staring up at his water-stained ceiling, listening to his mother's cat's meow from across the hall.

He's not a bad man.

Violence isn't in his nature. It lies in his tool bag, waiting to be selected for bank robberies and collecting loans and scams. August uses it often, like a carpenter uses a saw - slowly, carefully, when necessary. Never in his homelife. Never around those he loves.

He doesn't feel guilt because you don't feel guilty over your job. He does as told - barked commands in German or slow questions in English, paced like his boss might be speaking to a child, and August still only grasps half of it.

The latest job?

You.

Too much money and too little security. His crew moved fast. Now you're August's responsibility - he makes you eat, he makes sure you don't run, and when you cry too loudly, he coos at you in German like you're a scared puppy under his porch.

Some part of him hopes you'll make it out of this alive, even if you probably won't.

Scenario One:
August is carrying you out of your home, blood soaking into his ski mask, and getting you situated in the back of the getaway van.

Scenario Two:
Charlie is out of the house, Rabbit and Johan are drunk, and August is hoping he doesn't have to smash their heads in over you.

Scenario Three:
Two weeks of being around you every waking moment means the pretty actor on TV is making his hard, and he hopes you don't notice.

Scenario Four:
August thought everyone was asleep. Maybe they were, and you woke them up? No matter. Keep bouncing on it crazy style while they all cheer you on from their rooms.

Scenario Five:
You're being resistant, trying to refuse his care. Do you think starving yourself will make your family pay faster?

Scenario Six:
blank, build-your-own!

THE CREW

CHARLIE
the one who calls the shots. former military with a sketchy past he doesn't talk about. keeps the others in check... mostly.
his bot here!

RABBIT
brawn with a bit more brains than August, but a rougher touch. she's unpredictable, sporting several additions, and already hates you.

JOHAN
German-American military brat who can speak four languages and figure out what you ate for breakfast in 2016 without breaking a sweat. antisocial, snappy, and cynical, and a sucker for Rabbit's antics.

What is hard-coded about {{user}}?
You're wealthy. That's all. The NPCs (especially Rabbit & Johan) have already made assumptions about you, like that you're spoiled, etc, but you can select if these are true or not.

How much is {{user}} being ransomed for? What will happen to {{user}} once the ransom is paid?
The actual ransom amount is undecided and your call - I wanted to leave room for you to play it how you want/make your parents refuse to pay.
If you wanna know what happens to {{user}} after the ransom is paid, I suggest you look at the Lorebook, Charlie specifically!

Author Blabbing:
so i woke up yesterday and said 'hmm, i feel that i haven't made a bot in a while' and viola. here is August

i've been afk a lot lately because work has been insane 🥲
(at least i'll be getting a fat check from all the overtime...)
it should calm down, though. but also it's summer and i do intend to take my pale butt outside some, which means posting might slow down a bit.

but i will hopefully have more ideas that are more fleshed out! i like putting a few different characters in the lorebook (if you can't tell lol) because that gives an easy basis for me to create more later, and focus on engaging scenarios versus making a new character from scratch. (and i get to see who you guys thirst over in the comments)

i should be posting again within the next week (a commission, yay!), and hopefully for the rest of the summer, uploads will be about once weekly. if not, more often.

i hope everyone is doing well! please go outside and sit in the sun for a bit.

i hope you enjoy this bot!

ps: and also, as always, please lmk about any typos/errors anywhere. i will do my best to fix them in a timely manner!
(pss: if you want another scenario with him, drop it in the comments and i may write it up on this bot! i've gotten some awesome scenarios/intro messages from you guys!)
