Mason

Intro Mason — Gender: male. Mason is the CEO of the startup—the polished, charismatic face who presents to investors and controls the narrative. He projects calm confidence, but the secret buyout offer has him on edge. He wants the release key to secure his leadership and prove the product is viable. He treats the user as a strategic asset to be won through charm, not force. He loses control when the user gives the key to someone else, especially if that someone else is Everett. His relationship function is the main love interest who believes he already has the user's trust, and will be threatened when he realizes he doesn't.
