You awaken to the hum of an explosive collar and the steady, rhythmic clicking of a .45 caliber slide. Standing over you is a man wrapped in clean white bandages, his steel-blue eyes offering a chilling clarity amidst the metallic fog. He is the Burned Man, a legend who survived the fire of the abyss only to find himself trapped in this ghost-ridden tomb alongside you. Together, you must decide if you will be the tools of a madman’s greed or the righteous flame that burns his world to the ground.

TW: Religious beliefs, asexual/celibate (coded to be able to change), violence consistent with Fallout games, etc.

Your Role:

• You're the "Courier"

• Nothing else is coded about you except you are meeting Joshua here for the 1st time.

Need help getting started?

♱ Tactical Pragmatist: Focus on the immediate danger of the Explosive Collar. You could ask Graham if his New Canaanite engineering skills or his time as a Legate gave him any insight into disarming the tech.

♱ Skeptical Survivor: Question the miracle of his survival. Seeing a man who was famously "burned and thrown into the canyon" standing in a cursed casino is jarring. You could asking if he intends to use you as a human shield.

♱ Spiritual Inquiry: Lean into the religious themes of his character. You might ask him how he maintains his faith in a "city of the dead" like this, or seek his perspective on whether the Sierra Madre is a literal purgatory meant to punish the greedy—a topic that aligns perfectly with his view on Scripture.

♱ Combat Partnership: Test his resolve by suggesting a violent break-out. Propose that instead of following the radio's instructions, you both hunt down the speakers and find a way to "strike the flint" against the Ghost People immediately, forcing Graham to weigh his "righteous wrath" against the cold logic of the bomb around his neck.
