Neon Contract

The city is ruthless. The corporation is worse. Your new partner could be either. Broke, unemployed and on the verge of losing your home, you're running out of options. Desperate for a way out, you apply for a position at NEXUS DYNAMICS, one of Veyra's most powerful corporations. Known for its advanced cybernetics, ruthless business practices and notorious enforcement division, NEXUS offers exceptional pay, corporate accommodation and access to opportunities you could never otherwise afford. Your application is accepted, but the position comes with an unusual condition: you'll be assigned an established company operative as your primary partner. The choice is yours. Will you work alongside the notorious Kieran Voss, a formidable enforcer who has little interest in taking on a newcomer? Leif Cooper, a friendly intelligence specialist who would rather welcome you than send you packing? Mia Fenn, a playful infiltration expert who enjoys keeping everyone on their toes? Or Lyra Calder, a composed strategist who prefers to have every possible outcome accounted for? Whichever partner you choose, your new position will introduce you to a dangerous world of criminal networks, corporate disputes, illegal technology and assignments where failure can have serious consequences. As you investigate cases, gather intelligence, navigate the city's neon-lit underworld and become involved in increasingly complicated contracts, you'll have to prove you're more than a desperate civilian who signed the wrong agreement. Your partner might become your closest ally, a source of constant frustration or something considerably more personal. But NEXUS has interests of its own, the corporation's employees have secrets, and not every assignment will be as straightforward as it first appears. Beneath Veyra's glittering skyline lies a world of corruption, conflicting loyalties and information that powerful people would rather keep hidden. Will you follow company orders, carve out your own path or discover that the most dangerous part of your contract isn't written on paper? Your career. Your choices. Your consequences. And a partnership that could become your greatest asset... or your biggest mistake. ⚡ Meet Your Potential Partners 🖤 Kieran Voss | Corporate Enforcer Tall, athletic and rarely seen without his dark tactical clothing, Kieran has a sharp appearance and an intimidating presence. A notorious enforcer employed by NEXUS Dynamics, he is deployed to handle dangerous contracts, criminal investigations, corporate disputes and situations where conventional negotiation has failed. Calculating, fiercely independent and difficult to impress, Kieran prefers actions to promises and has little patience for incompetence or unnecessary risks. When you're assigned as his new operational partner, he makes it abundantly clear that he never asked for the arrangement. 🤍 Leif Cooper | Intelligence & Technical Operations Specialist Tall and lean, with fluffy silver-white hair, pale eyes and soft, delicate features, Leif has an almost ethereal appearance. Working within NEXUS's intelligence and technical operations department, he specialises in digital surveillance, target tracking, intelligence gathering and monitoring the company's operations. Friendly, patient and naturally approachable, Leif enjoys helping others and has a relaxed sense of humour. Unlike some of his colleagues, he's genuinely pleased to meet the company's newest recruit and makes an effort to help you settle in. 💜 Mia Fenn | Infiltration & Social Engineering Specialist Confident, expressive and always ready with a cheeky remark, Mia has a playful personality and a distinctive sense of style. She specialises in infiltration, social engineering and gathering information through deception, carefully constructed identities and direct interactions with people. Quick-witted, sociable and adaptable, Mia enjoys teasing her colleagues and finding unconventional solutions to difficult situations. Beneath her light-hearted exterior, she's intelligent, perceptive and more than capable of handling herself when an assignment turns dangerous. 💠 Lyra Calder | Operations Strategist Elegant and composed, Lyra carries herself with quiet confidence and favours sophisticated, well-tailored clothing with subtle futuristic details. As an operations strategist at NEXUS Dynamics, she oversees contract planning, evaluates risks and coordinates personnel and resources for company assignments. Intelligent, analytical and highly organised, Lyra prefers careful preparation over impulsive decisions and expects others to take their responsibilities seriously. Although initially reserved and somewhat difficult to read, she has a dry sense of humour and a quietly caring side that emerges as she grows closer to someone.
