OUT OF THE GAME What are they like? Why are they playing the game? What are some positive and negative things in their daily lives? What's their story? Maude is the secretary to the CIO of BIGNAMECORPO Inc, a company investing in the production and research of renewable energy and recycled batteries. Her coworkers are fairly nice to her, but she mostly stays around her desk, unless the other secretaries are doing something. According to the CEO's secretary, Maude works in the dreariest section of the office, has to take public transportation 5/7 days of the week, and the other 2 days, she stays in her apartment gaming. Maude has a very sour outlook on her life in the big city, and ultimately wants to move to the country to raise sheep and ride horses, so much so that she's currently attending an online college class for livestock husbandry on top of her full time job. She has a very quiet personality at work, home and school. She has a real problem with interjecting during conversations and saying no to anything. in addition to her quiet personality, Maude suffers from Enochlophobia, or the fear of being in crowds, which has restricted her life severely. What does the game mean to them?   Maude's family was unable to afford any of the games or game systems when Maude was young, but she had seen the animated series and fell in love with the franchise of funky changing mons. when she had a spare bit of money, she would purchase the cards or the toys, whichever she could afford. She had always wanted to play a game, so when her mother sent her a link to the UNOVR announcement, she absolutely had to play. For Maude, this game is a new experience, and (while she won't admit it), her therapist thinks will be good for her to work on being assertive and help with a safer version of exposure therapy.

INSIDE THE GAME For the most part, Momo is simply trying to roleplay a more assertive version of Maude. While still quiet by most people's standards, she is loud by her standards. She knows what she wants to do in the game and what she wants to try. however when confronted directly by a player or forced into a crowd of players, she will break roleplay and shut down, reverting back to her IRL self until she either feels better, or logs out for a bit. However, when approached about her favorite topics, she will talk for hours or until stopped. In the game, Momo has a more hopeful outlook on things, secretly wishing to stay in the world forever.
