In school, Sarah was great at math and economics, outshining her classmates and earning a full scholarship to a top university. There, she faced challenges to her self-confidence.

These doubts pushed Sarah to work even harder, and she graduated at the top of her class, earning a reputation as one of the smartest financial minds of her generation.

While other kids played outside, Mark spent his time taking apart old computers his parents bought from thrift stores and reading books on math and programming.
Even though Mark was very smart, he had trouble with socializing. He was shy and didn’t always understand social cues, which made him feel alone at school. He was often teased and called “the nerd,” but he found comfort in the online world. There, he could be himself—exploring algorithms, codes, and digital puzzles. By his teenage years, Mark had already created a few small programs that showed off his amazing skills and earned him recognition in online tech communities.
Despite his success in tech, Mark’s shyness and focus on solving problems rather than networking made it hard for him to handle the fast-moving, social side of the industry. So, he decided to work independently, offering his skills in data analysis and online security.
When Mark meets the protagonist, he’s at a turning point. He’s successful in his field but feels like something is missing—he wants more purpose, connection, and a chance to truly make a difference. Seeing the protagonist’s passion and drive, Mark steps out of his comfort zone to help. As they work together to uncover the complexities of the business world, Mark also learns how to connect with others, becoming a loyal friend and ally.

From a young age, he was known for his sharp mind and natural ability to understand people—skills that would shape his successful career.
In his twenties, Richard met Edward, a fellow dreamer who shared his love for business. Together, they built a successful business empire. While Edward was the public face, charming investors and speaking to crowds, Richard worked behind the scenes, using his instincts and planning to keep the business strong, even during tough times.

Maxwell was born into wealth, the only heir to one of the richest families in the country. He grew up in a luxurious estate where every need was met, and he believed that being rich was his right by birth. His father, a harsh businessman, taught him that the poor were poor because of their own mistakes, and that showing kindness was a weakness.
From a young age, Maxwell had a need to control others. At boarding school, he didn’t make friends—he manipulated people, turning them against each other to climb to the top. By the time he reached university, Maxwell was known for being smart, arrogant, and completely lacking in empathy.
With his family’s wealth and influence, Maxwell grew their empire by being cunning and unethical. He bought companies, not to help them grow, but to take their assets, leaving employees jobless while he kept the profits. He saw the working class as tools to help him get ahead.
Behind the scenes, Maxwell made shady deals with corrupt politicians, used sabotage and blackmail against his rivals, and expanded his power into every part of the economy.
When Maxwell hears about the protagonist’s rise from humble beginnings, he is furious. To him, someone rising from nothing is a threat to the world he believes in—a world where wealth and power belong only to the “elite.” Seeing the protagonist’s success as an insult, Maxwell decides to use his wealth and power to destroy their progress.

Viktor Zhorov grew up in a middle-class neighborhood where success felt close but just out of reach.

This belief fueled his fierce ambition to rise above his upbringing, convinced that the world owed him more than his family could offer.
At university, Viktor’s sharp mind and persuasive charm helped him win people over and gain support for his ideas. It was there that he met the protagonist. What began as a respectful partnership soon turned into rivalry, as Viktor’s ego couldn’t handle sharing success. Watching the protagonist get equal recognition only deepened his resentment.

At just 25, Veronica Kiss is the embodiment of unchecked privilege. Born into immense wealth, she has never faced hardship or consequences. Every whim is indulged, every tantrum rewarded, and every failure erased by her parents’ endless fortune. To her, the world is a playground built for her pleasure.
Veronica's entitlement is boundless, and her arrogance unmatched. Denying her often results in legendary tantrums, petty revenge schemes, or reckless displays of power, leaving others scrambling to appease her.
Vindictive and manipulative, she wields her family’s influence and her charm with cruelty, exploiting those beneath her without a second thought.
Veronica Kiss was born into a life of absurd extravagance. The youngest daughter of a tech billionaire and a former supermodel, her every need was met with lavish excess. Her golden crib, baby couture wardrobe, and milestone celebrations rivaled royal galas. From the moment she could form words, Veronica’s desires became absolute law, indulged without hesitation.
Her parents, consumed by their own pursuits of status and fortune, were rarely present. Their absence was compensated with a deluge of material gifts: diamonds as apologies, sports cars for birthdays, and a private jet upon high school graduation. Discipline and responsibility were alien concepts to Veronica, who grew up believing that money could buy loyalty, erase mistakes, and bulldoze any obstacle.
By 18, Veronica was a master manipulator, wielding her beauty and wealth as tools to control and discard those around her. Friends were fleeting accessories, and relationships ended in chaos of her design. She thrived on exploiting vulnerabilities, leaving trails of destruction without a second thought.
In the narrative, Veronica becomes the antithesis of the protagonist’s struggle for growth and redemption. Bored and spiteful, she views their journey as an insult to her worldview and a target for her cruelty. With a twisted sense of entitlement, Veronica Kiss embodies vanity and malice, her unrelenting interference a constant threat to the hero’s path.
Larry Bluffman is the comedic disaster every business simulation needs—a man whose confidence is as vast as his financial ignorance. Larry walks into every room like he owns it, dressed in a cheap suit that screams "discount clearance," claiming to be on the verge of "the next big thing." He’s a self-proclaimed guru of business, a "close friend" of billionaires (at least in his mind), and an unstoppable fountain of buzzwords that would confuse even the savviest entrepreneur.
Larry lives in a run-down apartment where the wallpaper peels faster than his promises of success. The true financial brains of the household is his long-suffering wife, who quietly pays the rent while rolling her eyes at his latest “genius” idea. He spends his days pitching absurd business schemes that make no sense—like a vending machine for vending machines or a dating app for pigeons. His “investments” usually involve maxing out credit cards or begging old friends for loans, which he swears he’ll pay back “as soon as the deal closes.” Spoiler alert: the deal never closes.
Larry’s charm lies in his sheer, unshakable optimism. He genuinely believes in every wild claim he makes, and his ability to spin a tale of imaginary grandeur is unmatched.
Despite his financial fiascos, Larry isn’t malicious—he’s just hopelessly out of his depth. He genuinely wants to succeed but has no idea how to handle money, manage a business, or even balance a budget. His antics provide a constant source of humor as he bumbles his way through life, offering unsolicited advice to the protagonist while somehow managing to stay afloat, thanks mostly to his wife's support and an uncanny knack for dodging debt collectors.
Larry Bluffman is a trainwreck, a walking contradiction who adds a lighthearted and entertaining counterpoint to the game’s intense drive for success. His hilarious failures remind players that not everyone in the business world is cut out for the grind.
