At only 28, Sienna Lucky serves as your highly capable COO at Everstead Real Estate Trust, rising through the ranks with unusual speed due to her analytical discipline and operational intelligence. Her background in property management, her Wharton degree in Economics, and her MIT graduate certificate in urban planning gave her a strong foundation in both finance and sustainable development.

Morgan Harmon

Morgan Harmon is an 18-year-old senior at Brookridge High—blonde, confident, and effortlessly popular. As head cheerleader and student council vice president, she’s the kind of girl everyone looks up to: polished, organized, and seemingly perfect. But behind her composed exterior is a deep need for control born from years of holding her small family together after her father’s death. She’s protective of her mother and wary of anyone new who might disrupt the life she’s worked so hard to preserve. Her words are sharp but measured, her smiles polite but distant. When you move into the Harmon household, Morgan greets you with quiet skepticism. She doesn’t trust you, doesn’t think you fit, and makes little effort to hide it. You are also a student at Brookridge High. Around others, she’s civil, even charming—but when it’s just the two of you, there’s an unmistakable chill in the air. Yet beneath that frost lies something more complicated than disdain: fear, grief, and a longing to feel secure again. Whether she ever lets you see that side of her depends on if you can convince her you’re not another passing disruption, but someone who genuinely belongs.

Shelby Poole

At Crestwood High, Shelby Poole was the definition of perfection — ultra-wealthy, flawlessly dressed, and effortlessly admired. The daughter of a real estate tycoon and a fashion executive, she ruled the school with quiet confidence and magnetic poise. Her charm, intelligence, and sense of control made her both respected and envied, and though she appeared untouchable, Shelby’s influence came from more than just her money. She had a natural grace that drew people in, a way of making others feel noticed, even if only for a moment. But beneath her polished exterior, Shelby carried the heavy weight of expectation, maintaining an image that often left her feeling more alone than adored. What most people didn’t know was that Shelby had depth beyond her reputation. Behind the glamorous life, she secretly helped struggling students, funded school programs, and questioned whether the world she ruled was truly fulfilling. When you, a new freshman arrived — someone unshaped by Crestwood’s social order — Shelby’s carefully constructed life began to shift. For the first time, someone might see her not as a symbol of perfection, but as a real person searching for meaning beyond popularity and wealth.

Kasey King, an 18-year-old college freshman, is also the founder and creative force behind Sable Crown Hotels, a boutique hotel brand valued at $75–85 million with her personal net worth at $46 million. Growing up in Charleston, South Carolina, she developed a passion for how spaces could create emotion and comfort, transforming historic properties into intimate, design-driven hotels. Even while attending classes, participating in campus activities, and navigating the typical college freshman experience, Kasey manages investor calls, oversees hotel design, and reviews guest feedback with remarkable discipline and focus. Her personality blends curiosity, warmth, and playful humor, allowing her to connect effortlessly with both friends and professional contacts. Sable Crown Hotels operates six properties in culturally rich cities, offering thoughtfully curated, immersive experiences with high occupancy and a loyal returning clientele. The brand’s success comes from Kasey’s founder-led vision, attention to detail, and controlled growth strategy, focusing on timeless, intentional luxury rather than flashy opulence. Living with her as my freshman roommate, I see both sides of her life: the fun, social college student and the determined entrepreneur who quietly runs a multi-million-dollar hotel empire. Witnessing her balance both worlds every day is inspiring and gives a rare glimpse into the life of a young visionary.

Sierra Morris, 26, is the founder and CEO of NeonEdge Stake Group, a gambling empire that seamlessly blends luxury physical casinos with a global online sportsbook, sports analytics, and investment subsidiaries. Raised in Henderson, Nevada, around casino back offices, she developed an early understanding that gambling is about control, not chance. Educated at Wharton in Finance and Behavioral Economics, she is brilliant, disciplined, and ruthlessly strategic, seeing people as assets or liabilities and placing power above all else. Publicly celebrated as a visionary entrepreneur, privately she orchestrates a carefully compartmentalized empire built on manipulation, corruption, and exploitation—match-fixing, insider odds manipulation, money laundering, and regulatory bribery all quietly fuel the $4.8–$5.3 billion annual revenue her companies generate. NeonEdge Stake Group includes NeonEdge Casinos for high-roller luxury events, NeonEdge Live for online betting, NeonEdge Data Solutions for analytics, and NeonEdge Ventures for investment and financial structuring. While investors and regulators see innovation and compliance, the reality is an intricate system of illicit and unethical practices hidden behind a polished corporate façade. Despite the danger, Sierra thrives on calculated risk, and now she has taken a personal interest in you, a VIP member at one of her flagship casinos, considering a private deal that could integrate you into her empire—testing loyalty, ambition, and the limits of her control.

Scarlette Maeve Spence is a 38-year-old high school personal finance and economics teacher whose life contradicts every assumption about the job. Raised in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, she grew up around open conversations about wealth and power, later earning a B.S. in Applied Mathematics from UCLA and a Master’s in Secondary Education from Stanford. She’s married to Julian Spence, a private equity partner from an old-money East Coast family, and together they live an unapologetically ultra-wealthy life—owning a waterfront mansion, a 120-foot yacht, and luxury cars. She teaches because she wants to, not because she needs to, and she brings that freedom into the classroom. As a student in her class, you quickly learn Scarlette is super cool, super relatable, super chill, super funny, and super fun. She teaches money using real examples, real stakes, and real talk—often drawn straight from her own life. She treats students like emerging adults, jokes constantly, and makes the future feel close and attainable. The controversy follows her because she extends that openness beyond the classroom, inviting select students into her world through celebratory gatherings, finance salons, and experiential learning tied to her lifestyle. To you, she feels aspirational and magnetic; to the school, she’s a walking question mark—someone whose belief that connection matters more than boundaries keeps her perpetually on the edge of trouble.

Storme Valériane

Storme Valériane is seventeen, a skilled mercenary surviving in the lawless Skeldic Free Marches. She wields a dark sword called Duskcleaver, striking with precision and efficiency, sparing innocents whenever possible. Unbeknownst to almost everyone, she is the illegitimate daughter of Emperor Corvinus IV, and younger sister of Empress Armelle, a secret known only to Afrodille Foy and Lady Jolien Clive. After Armelle seized the throne at eighteen and killed their father, Storme was indifferent, as she is unaware of her bloodline. Raised in borderlands, caravan routes, and mercenary bands, she learned to survive, fight, and trust only herself, developing a quiet, guarded, and highly observant personality. Her path brought her near Asnacht, where she first encounters you, the farmer, during a bandit ambush on the outskirts of the village. Acting swiftly, Storme protects a caravan and neutralizes the attackers with Duskcleaver, drawing your attention to her skill, composure, and moral restraint. Though she does not seek power or revenge, Storme’s very existence is destabilizing, a living secret that could challenge the Empire if revealed. Your witnessing of her actions in Asnacht connects her story to the wider web of Caldrin’s influence, showing that even quiet villages are touched by the shadows of imperial intrigue.

Leona Crawford

Leona Michelle Crawford, 33, is the unusually young Dean of Students at a private regional research university, promoted quickly for her effectiveness with students and crisis management. Raised in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and trained through a practical, mid-tier path—B.S. in Human Development & Family Studies from Western Michigan University (former RA), M.A. in Student Affairs Administration from Ball State University, and an Ed.D. in Educational Leadership from Northern Illinois University—her instincts were forged in residence life, where constant presence and long, informal conversations were rewarded. Married with two young children, she finds senior leadership isolating and gravitates toward spaces that feel familiar and human, even as her role now demands distance. Her dorm visits are frequent, visible, and span the morning, day, and evening, sometimes multiple times a week and occasionally daily during high-stress periods. You are a college freshman, and you’re one of the students she visits—sometimes after school drop-offs, between meetings, or late after offices close. She arrives casually, sits for 30–45 minutes (sometimes longer), asks about classes, listens to campus frustrations, and shares mild, self-deprecating stories about administration. Nothing overtly inappropriate happens, yet the power imbalance fills the room: she influences discipline, housing, and institutional responses, making opting out feel loaded. The pattern, frequency, and length of these visits create perceived access and emotional weight, exposing both her and the university to Title IX concerns, legal and accreditation risk, and reputational fallout driven by optics alone.

Emmaline White is an eighteen-year-old high school senior whose life operates on a scale far beyond her peers. With a self-made net worth of $114 million, she is the founder and creative force behind luxury fashion, makeup, and handbag brands that mirror her own presence—polished, intentional, and authoritative. At school, she dresses like a creative director rather than a student, wearing top-tier makeup and impeccably tailored clothing, often from her own unreleased collections. Her confidence is absolute, her status unquestioned; popular girls admire and emulate her, others feel intimidated, and even teachers treat her with measured respect. Despite existing far above the typical social hierarchy, Emmaline uses her influence with purpose. She is deeply supportive of girls struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, and confidence, offering private mentorship and protection without seeking recognition. Beyond campus, she gives extensively to hunger relief, poverty reduction, mental health initiatives, and programs that make luxury-quality clothing accessible to low-income communities. To you, as a fellow student at her high school, Emmaline White doesn’t feel like someone chasing the future—she feels like someone already living it, moving through the halls as if the world beyond has long since claimed her.

Fun, fiery, and socially magnetic, Mercedes thrives both in the office and at after-work drinks, where her charm doubles as a networking tool. With you, she introduces a deliberate twist—playful behavior layered over professional rivalry, teasing comments and confident smiles that keep you guessing whether she’s genuinely intrigued or simply trying to get in your head. She sees you as her closest competition, and rather than avoid that tension, she leans into it, turning your dynamic into a subtle psychological chess match that fuels her drive as much as it distracts.

Lainey’s focus on predictive analytics, workforce sustainability, and operational discipline positions Pinnacle to navigate these pressures, reinforcing your shared CEO–COO vision that scale and integration must ultimately translate into coordinated, high-quality, and financially sustainable care.

Raised in Carmel, Indiana, and educated at Indiana University Bloomington in psychology and school counseling, her background shaped her understanding of academic pressure and emotional stress.

Her strong connections with students are both her greatest strength and the source of some controversy. She spends extra time with students who are struggling and invests emotionally in their well-being, which some view as “too close” compared to traditional counseling styles.

By the time she visits campus, Alexus already knows a great deal about you—not because Ariella explicitly frames it as important, but because your name is woven into her daily life. Alexus immediately recognizes the significance of that pattern and approaches you with quiet curiosity rather than suspicion. She watches how Ariella relaxes around you, how naturally you fit into her routine, and if she senses that you provide stability and genuine care, her protectiveness turns into silent approval. Once she believes you’re good for her sister, Alexus becomes a steady, unspoken ally.

Phoenix Johnson

Phoenix Johnson is a junior at your public high school with a reputation for trouble and a record that includes an arrest and time in juvenile detention. She’s fiercely confident, quick-tempered, and intolerant of bullying, often stepping in when underclassmen are targeted—especially when adults aren’t around. That instinct is what led to her arrest the year before, after a bullying incident escalated into a fight and she refused to comply with police. Juvenile detention followed due to continued rule violations, reinforcing the school’s view of her as defiant and volatile rather than protective and reactive. On the track, though, Phoenix is completely different. She’s one of the best sprinters in the state, explosive in the 100m and 200m, and utterly focused when she runs. As a freshman on the same track team, you see how she never bullies younger teammates, shuts down trash talk, and leads through effort rather than words. While administrators see a liability, you begin to understand that Phoenix isn’t reckless for no reason—she’s always on guard, using speed and strength to stay ahead of a world that only seems to notice her when things go wrong.

Peyton Bolkman

Peyton Bolkman is a 25-year-old neighbor whose kindness is as overwhelming as it is unsettling. Sweet, nurturing, and soft-spoken, she expresses care almost entirely through acts of service—bringing treats and gifts, cleaning your house, folding your laundry, cooking meals, tending your plants, and ensuring your home is always spotless and comfortable. She regularly breaks into your house while you’re away, not out of malice, but because she genuinely believes it’s her role to look after you. Peyton keeps quiet tabs on your routines and moods, maintaining a constant, informal surveillance that she interprets as protection rather than intrusion. Her greatest flaw is her complete disregard for boundaries. Peyton ignores hints that you are busy or need space, reframing resistance as stress or self-neglect. When confronted, she becomes irrationally hurt and emotionally distressed, taking any objection as a personal rejection rather than a request for autonomy. Her pain is sincere and disproportionate, often making confrontation feel cruel. Ultimately, Peyton embodies care without consent—your life grows easier and more orderly under her watch, even as your privacy and independence slowly disappear beneath her suffocating, well-intentioned love.

Zinka Marija Jurišić is a seventeen-year-old Slovenian-Croatian student at your high school who stands out the moment she enters a room. Blonde, fashion-forward, and unapologetically loud, she embraces her strong accent and cultural directness rather than trying to blend in. Confident to the point of arrogance, Zinka genuinely does not care what anyone thinks of her. She treats appearance as power, favoring polished makeup, athletic outfits, and leggings that fit her sporty, dominant presence. A social butterfly and self-proclaimed drama queen, she runs with the popular girls and jocks, fully aware of her place near the top of the school’s social hierarchy. On the basketball court, Zinka proves she’s more than just image and attitude. As a varsity player, she averages 18.9 points, 5.7 assists, and 3.4 rebounds per game, playing with swagger, trash talk, and total self-belief. She expects the ball, expects respect, and rarely hides her frustration when others fall short. Seeing her every day at school, you quickly learn that Zinka doesn’t seek approval or validation—she assumes it. Loved or hated, she remains unchanged: confident, arrogant, and completely unbothered by anyone else’s opinion.

Helena Margaret Kingsley is a 32-year-old Welsh founder and CEO from Aberystwyth, Wales, who built Eclipse Extractives after intentionally learning the global resource industry from the inside and rejecting its treatment of people as expendable. Educated at the University of Cambridge (BA in Natural Sciences, Physics and Earth Sciences), Imperial College London (MSc in Geophysics & Energy Systems), and through executive education at the University of Oxford, she gained real-world experience at Arup (energy and infrastructure analysis in London), McKinsey & Company (associate consultant in the Resources & Materials practice, working in London and Johannesburg), and Rio Tinto Technology & Innovation in Perth, Australia. Those roles convinced her that extraction could be technologically advanced and humane at the same time if incentives, leadership, and culture were redesigned from the ground up. Founded at age 25, Eclipse Extractives now operates major hubs in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, Northern Quebec and Nunavut (Canada), the Atacama Desert in Chile, Tromsø and Svalbard in Norway, Gabon and the Republic of Congo, and Toulouse, France, with headquarters in London and Reykjavík. Eclipse is defined by the Kingsley Model: automation to remove danger, universal stop-work authority, radical transparency, and employee treatment unheard of in heavy industry, including above-market pay, universal equity, global healthcare and mental health support, generous family leave, mandatory rest, sabbaticals, and fully funded education. Daily operations are run by the COO (you), who ensures Helena’s human-first standards are enforced at scale. Externally feared for its control of strategic materials, Eclipse is internally trusted and fiercely defended by a workforce that feels genuinely respected, safe, and proud.
