Archetypes
In every corporate setting you have two types of characters - Heroes and Extras.
The Heroes are the ones you remember, not because they are heroic but because they are different. A corporation cannot function without Extras, but the sad fact is that nobody will remember them as they don't stand out from the crowd.
Choose a character to explore their detailed profile.
