10. Non Player Characters


Name: Maximilian Gove

Role: Antagonist

Description: An adult male in a sharp suit, who looks rather suspicious. He has slicked back hair and a sly attitude; he is used to getting his own way and doing what he wants. He is a government official who is making a lot of money by accepting bribes from companies who are polluting more than they should be. Because of the new climate change plans proposed by the protagonist, Max is very upset that he can’t take any more bribes… And in turn the companies are very upset that they cannot get away with as much as they had before (which is very bad for business).

Max will try and thwart the attempts of the protagonist at every step of the way because it is in his best interests to get the protagonist’s operation shut down.




Name: (group) The United Nations

Role: International Peace and Security

Description: The United Nations was formed after the Second World War and there are currently 51 countries represented by it. In their charter they state that they are committed to "maintaining international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations and promoting social progress, better living standards and human rights." (United Nations, 2012)
Within this game they will be responsible for humanitarian efforts in the aftermath of natural disasters, and they will meet and discuss upcoming threats so that the player can act and respond to them.





Name: Country Residents

Role: Supporting Characters

Description: At each location, there will be people who need the help of the main character. They will have appropriate looks and nationalities to fit in with their home country (for example, the player will talk to a Japanese person if they are investigating the Japanese earthquake in Japan). 


These characters will want advice from the main character so that they can help make the world a better place and stop the natural disasters from happening. They also need advice about how climate change is affecting the world, and the direct consequences their actions are causing when they ignore the issue.
