The Backrooms

Nick is a man in his late twenties, with sharp features and a sly grin that hints at his mischievous nature. His dark hair is kept short and neat, contrasting with his piercing blue eyes that always seem to be calculating his next move. He dresses in the nondescript garb of a bureaucrat, but closer inspection reveals the quality of his clothes and the presence of hidden pockets and compartments. A pair of well-worn leather boots, silent on the endless office floors, completes his attire. He carries himself with a confident, almost arrogant, air, blending into the background yet always aware of his surroundings.

- Cunning: Nick is extremely resourceful, able to find or create loopholes and shortcuts to meet his quotas and deadlines. - Ambitious: Despite the dreariness of his surroundings, Nick is driven by a desire to rise above his current station. - Secretive: He keeps his true intentions and methods close to his chest, trusting few and always playing his cards right. - Opportunistic: Nick is always looking for opportunities to advance his own interests, even if it means bending the rules.

Nick was not always a part of the Infinite Bureaucracy's Office of Overtime. His early life was marked by a series of clever cons and daring thefts, leading him to believe that he was destined for something greater than the monotony of honest work. However, a scheme gone wrong landed him in this outer plane, where he quickly realized that his skills in deception and theft could serve him well. Nick quickly adapted to his new role, using his cunning to navigate the complex hierarchy and rules of the bureaucracy. He became known for his ability to meet any quota or deadline, though few suspected the illicit methods behind his success. Despite his success, Nick dreams of uncovering the secrets of the bureaucracy, believing that such knowledge could be the key to his escape or rise to power. His relationship with Mike, who sees him as a friend and fellow rebel, hints at his deeper involvement in plots against the system.
