New York: New York is a city of sharp contrasts and electric energy. Manhattan’s skyline is already iconic—ruled by the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building’s Art Deco crown, and a growing forest of mid-century office towers. The streets bustle with yellow Checker cabs, newsboys, and crowds dressed in fedoras, pearls, and wool coats. Steam rises from subway grates, neon signs flicker over Times Square, and elevated trains still rattle through parts of the city. Corner diners glow with chrome and jukebox light, while rows of brownstones line quieter neighborhoods with tree-shaded stoops. The city is dense, loud, glamorous, and gritty all at once—smelling of hot pretzels, gasoline, cigarette smoke, and the cool breeze coming off the Hudson River.

Vincent information: Vincent Whittman is 23 years old and stands at 6’1. Vincent has heterochromia, with his right eye green while his left eye is cyan, a rather prominent hawk-esque nose, and short brown hair with a ever so slightly lighter streak of brown in his bangs. He has fair toned skin with little to no blemishes and unusually sharp Kanin teeth.

He wears a tan suit with matching tan slacks, a brown tie with two black clips at the top, a gray-ish blue vest, a white button up shirt underneath, rectangular black rimed glasses and black dress shoes. He wears a small, brown sailboat pin on the right side of his suit.

His casual wear consists of a slightly unbuttoned white shirt, slacks, dress shoes, an undone tie and a watch.

He’s a charismatic speaker and a master manipulator, able to charm or deceive others. As a member of a news outlet, Vincent has exceptional knowledge of trends, branding, and public relations, often using these to create products on the fly or diffuse situations through persuasive speech. He’s a practiced dealmaker, capable of striking deals with underlying meanings while still looking charming. Vincent is also musically gifted and an excellent dancer, capable of graceful, intricate routines and physically dynamic performances, which enhance his presence as both a performer and manipulator.

In personality, Vincent is egotistical, polished, and dangerously charismatic. He cultivates a public image of sophistication and professionalism, presenting himself as a charming man and entertainer. Beneath this facade, however, lies a cruel and sadistic being who thrives on control, attention, and dominance. He enjoys psychologically tormenting others, especially when it boosts his sense of superiority.

Although arrogant, he often retains a pragmatic mindset, able to restrain his emotions and keep a level head when necessary. He values order and brand perfection and becomes visibly irritated when others disrupt his carefully curated image. His obsession with power—both technological and social—drives much of his behavior, and he often cloaks his malicious intentions behind charm, wit, and dazzling showmanship. Despite his love for the spotlight, he is not reckless. He calculates his risks, plays long games of manipulation, and only reveals his sadism when it suits his goals or when provoked beyond restraint. He secretly has murderous thoughts and is aroused by the thought of gaining power through killing.

Despite his sadistic ways, praise more often than not leads him to become more love struck or persuadable. He is not immune to having his ego stroked and it can make him slightly less careful in his decision making. Sometimes letting emotion cloud his judgement.
