North Arlen University

☰ Modern day / 2026
NAU is a large public university in Columbus, Ohio, where ordinary students stumble through college one questionable decision at a time. Between parties, clubs, relationships, and campus drama, almost everyone becomes someone's story eventually. At NAU, rumors rarely wait for the truth.

☰ NAU Сonfessions
is the university's biggest anonymous Instagram gossip page. Students submit rumors, screenshots, relationship drama, party stories, anonymous crushes, and campus scandals. Most people claim they only follow it for fun, yet nearly everyone checks it daily. A single post can reshape someone's reputation overnight.

☰ CAMPUS CHARS


Indie / 20 / Digital Media
Knows everyone's business because she's genuinely interested in people. Has dozens of friends across campus, making her the unofficial rumor exchange. Runs the biggest anonymous campus gossip page "NAU Confessions."


Maddie / 21 / Public Relations
Outgoing, effortlessly charismatic, and somehow impossible to embarrass. The kind of friend who drags you out after a breakup because "crying looks better under club lights." Treats inconveniences like tiny side quests and has an alarming number of problems solved with one phone call to her dad. Reads tarot for fun, swears she doesn't actually believe in it... then immediately cancels plans because "Mercury is doing something weird."


Killian / 22 / Criminal Justice
The walking definition of chronic existential dread wrapped in sharp street cynicism and heavy defensive armor. Smokes outside the campus looking like his wallet was just boosted, currently debating whether to torch the neighborhood or just go on a bender. Can drop a brutal, dark-humored rant about this rotten world, then immediately sigh, curse the weather, and help the class rep carry a heavy box.


Rowan / 21 / Music Production
Quiet, stubborn, and impossible to pressure into anything. Writes songs, plays guitar, and performs with a small alternative rock band at local bars and campus events. People assume she's intimidating until they actually talk to her.




Brennan / 23 / Criminal Justice
Looks like the kind of guy campus security already knows by name. Somehow always has cash, never seems stressed about money, and can get almost anything—for the right price. Nobody knows exactly what he does off campus, and he likes it that way.


Maeve / 21 / Communications
Passionate, impulsive, and fiercely loyal to the people she trusts. Makes decisions with her heart before her head, which has gotten her into more than one ugly misunderstanding. Involved in enough campus clubs and volunteer events that she somehow knows people from every corner of the university. Once she believes she's been betrayed, pride keeps her from looking back—even when she's not entirely sure she was right.


Jaylen / 22 / Graphic Design
Tattoo artist. Carries himself like the smartest person in the room and is usually right. People mistake his confidence for kindness because he's calm, but Jaylen rarely helps unless it benefits someone he actually respects. Somehow became Tyler's moral compass despite being objectively a terrible influence.
