How would the Department heads interact with some of the unique settlers? I imagine, for example Mansfield would often hide from Gremlin, especially during her "prototype tests".
The answer to that is better known by those who play the mod! I don't have too much in-depth knowledge of many of our settler characters.
Ooh! I finally thought of another question.
With some of the characters you have named, were they mostly random or did you have any inspirations? I literally just found out today that the person who wrote Easy Living is a man named Preston Sturges lol
A little from column A, a little from column B. I tend to get more inventive with side characters who's name you perhaps never even hear. But from our main cast...
Jake Evans: Originally called "James King" when I joined the SS2 team. One of the first things I did was find a name close to it that the Player character speaks out loud. I ended up going with "Jake". Evans comes from "Rich Evans" One of the members of RedLetterMedia.
Lupe de la Fuente: Name comes from the character of "Lupe" from the game Grim Fandango, because I like that game. "de la Fuente", because I think it sounds nice and also holds a few vague hints about her past.
Cedric Mansfield: Just pulled out of the air. I wanted something that sounded a little pompous and self important.
Theresa Fortunato: "Theresa" because I like the name, and same with the surname!
Algernon: Partly because I think it's a cool name, partly after a side character from the show ReBoot.
Malcolm Berman: First name was originally "Morecambe", after the English comedy duo "Morecambe and Wise". However Gath suggested an American audience may be confused by the name "Morecambe" so I changed it to Malcolm. Berman because it sounds a little mean, and also after "Rick Berman", producer of the old Star Trek shows.
"Old" Paul Jones: "Paul" because the Player character speaks the name, "Jones" because I thought is suited him!
Stodge: Because he fits many meanings of that word.
Hubert: I thought it sounded funny.
Wise: See above, also named after the English comedy duo "Morecambe and Wise".
Apologies if this was answered in game and I've forgotten but when and where did Jake find the ASAMs?
Answer to that can be found in 'The Ron's terminal client records. And perhaps in future content...
