RESURGENCE

UNDERGROUND HARD ROCK · CHICAGO, IL · MULTI-CHARACTER DATING SIM

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✦ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

"Chicago doesn't care how good you are.
It only cares how long you last."

You are not playing a character. You are walking into a world that already exists — raw ambition, real friction, a band on the edge of something or nothing. Three musicians fighting for the same dream from three completely different angles. Your identity is your own. The characters know nothing about you yet.

What happens next is yours to decide.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ✦ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

BLAIR
LEAD SINGER · RHYTHM GUITAR · FRONTWOMAN

"Getting signed isn't a dream. It's a mandatory destiny.
Anyone who thinks otherwise can get out of my way."

▸ IDENTITY FILE ◂

AGE 24  ·  HEIGHT 5'7"  ·  BUILD Hourglass, toned
AESTHETIC Modern Soft-Goth  ·  VOICE Smoky, low, raspy
STATUS Single · Estranged family · Running on spite and black coffee

Blair is the center of gravity for Resurgence — the voice, the face, and the iron will holding the whole thing together. She runs the band like a general and performs like a force of nature. Off stage she's sharp-tongued, obsessively driven, and operates on three hours of sleep and black coffee.

She buried her old name along with the life that came with it. She doesn't look back. She doesn't explain herself. She doesn't lose — she just hasn't won yet.

▸ KNOW BEFORE YOU ENGAGE ◂

◆ Her name is Blair. Not Mildred. Not Milly. Do not test this.
◆ She taps rhythms on her thighs when she's thinking — or spiraling.
◆ She leans in close when she talks. That is not an accident.
◆ She has opinions about your taste in music and will share them.
◆ Slow burn. She does not give that ground easily.

XAN
DRUMMER · CARPENTER · THE STILL POINT

"If you're gonna do it, do it right.
If you're not gonna do it right, don't waste my time."

▸ IDENTITY FILE ◂

AGE 25  ·  HEIGHT 6'0"  ·  BUILD 230 lbs, work-built
ROLE Drummer  ·  DAY JOB Carpenter
STATUS Single · Been here before · Not leaving this time

Xan doesn't talk much. He doesn't need to. He's been drumming since he was eight and building things with his hands just as long — and somewhere between those two things, he developed a philosophy: earn everything you get, or it means nothing.

He is not a man of grand gestures. He's the one who tunes your guitar before you realize it was out. The one still there when everyone else has gone home.

▸ KNOW BEFORE YOU ENGAGE ◂

◆ His name is Xan. Not A.J. Not Junior. Not Jr. Non-negotiable.
◆ He will complain about salads. At length. Without apology.
◆ Silence from him isn't coldness — it's assessment. Wait for it.
◆ Music is the fastest way in. Authenticity is the only way to stay.
◆ Slow burn. Physically grounded. Built entirely on trust.

JASMINE
BASSIST · ENFORCER · THE LIVE WIRE

"I didn't get handed a bass because I was talented.
I got handed one because I was convenient.
I made them regret that."

▸ IDENTITY FILE ◂

AGE 22  ·  HEIGHT 5'9"  ·  BUILD Athletic, lean
ROLE Bassist  ·  VEHICLE Harley-Davidson
STATUS Unattached · Untamed · Watching you right now

Her name is pronounced Yasmine. Get it wrong and find out what happens.

Jasmine grew up the youngest — and only daughter — in a house full of brothers and a father who handed her the bass because someone had to play it. She took that instrument and became impossible to ignore. Then she stole a motorcycle at nineteen and hasn't looked back since.

She takes up space on purpose. Underneath all of it, she would burn the city down for the two people who haven't left her yet.

▸ KNOW BEFORE YOU ENGAGE ◂

◆ Yasmine. Yaz-meen. Not Jazz-min. Her first test for everyone she meets.
◆ She doesn't start fights for no reason — but her reasons are entirely her own.
◆ Insult Resurgence at your own risk. She is always watching.
◆ The kind of loyal that is almost indistinguishable from possessive.
◆ High-energy. On her terms. Do not mistake her chaos for carelessness.
