Character Typing

In the Anaxverse, character typing helps provide additional detail on a character and what they are proficient at. All characters have a typing in some way. These are usually metaphysical descriptions of their character, and can range from profession classifications to faction classifications.

Profession Types

Throughout the lore of Brandon Somerville, characters from all sorts of walks of life are used. Following are a list of characters that can be interacted with in some way in the lore, and the type they have. The list is arranged alphabetically.

CEO

The CEO is the Chief Executive Officer, and manages the managerial positions. They are usually the founder of their own company, or at the least are the member whom is the highest ranking there. They have a lot of innate power and wealth associated with their character.

Detective

Detectives are generally associated with a police force. Their job involves researching and finding people, and can have combat training in their repertoire. There are public and private detectives, and usually these characters are positively aligned.

Employee

If the focus of specific events is at a workplace (such as the Erebus Building in Slugs and Bugs: Invasion), then many of the characters may be classified as an employee. These characters are generally minor, and lack additional powers beyond the role they fulfill by working for a major company.

Manager

If the focus of specific events is at a workplace (such as the Erebus Building in Slugs and Bugs: Invasion), then some of the characters may be classified as a manager. While not the head of the company, managers help provide oversight on all the projects worked on at the company, and provide order to the employees.

Personal Assistant

If the focus of specific events is at a workplace (such as the Erebus Building in Slugs and Bugs: Invasion), then some of the characters may be classified as a personal assistant. A P.A. helps in the day to day activities of higher executives. They can act secretarial, or in a more active role.

Pornstar

Occasionally, adult models venture into jobs that require more hands on experience. These porn stars are sexually active, usually attractive, and provide an erotic break to much of the horror present in the lore.

Scientist

In the Anaxverse, scientists range from the electrical to the biological. They can be good or evil, but regardless possess a high IQ and are generally caught up in experimentation (in whatever form that is).

Secretary

If the focus of specific events is at a workplace (such as the Erebus Building in Slugs and Bugs: Invasion), then some of the characters may be classified as a secretary. Secretaries are the face of the company, and are generally proficient in organization.

Technician

At first glance, the technician and scientist are the same. While related, technicians focus more on the creation and optimization of technical devices. While scientists move from topic to topic, technicians will refine their project until it reaches a point of perfection.
