DICE 1 FACE 6 - The Boss
Art by: Morgan
Bio by: JohnnyGang

And now, Yay Corporations present their very own leader, The Boss! The head behind the latest tween sensations, owner of biggest oil rig in the Mexican gulf and Toy Story 3's greatest critic is here, and it seems like his agenda has set it sights to this event! So unless you can imagine a way to combat his newest expansion; step aside and skip away from his investment zone!

THEIR FOCUS SOURCES ARE:

- Nicky Case media, flash media/creators & old internet culture
(Reimagine :the game:, Adventures With Anxiety, Fancypants Adventure, Ignorance Is Bliss)
(VVVVVV, The Binding Of Isaac, Never Gonna Give You Up, Double Rainbow)

- :the game: series parodied media, general parody media & reference-reliant/black comedy media
(Lady Gaga, Weird Al Yankovic, Justin Bieber, Monster Seeking Monster)`

- Internet/eldritch horror, metanarratives & the end
(SPC Foundation, Slenderman, Lobotomy Corporation, Bloodborne)
(The Stanley Parable, The Final Countdown, Pony Island, (Don't Fear) The Reaper)

- Money/valuables, business, corruption/industrialism & the high class
(Here Comes The Money, Adventure Capitalist, Biggering, Material Girl)
(Bad Dance, You're Gonna Go Far Kid, Deception, Shelter [Madeon's Evil Edit])

But if they get a high enough roll, you may see something else pop up!
----------------------------------------
Hm. How curious. On the surface, this.... individual seems like just another businessman; an especially corrupt and probably inebriated one, yes, but nothing too out of the ordinary. But... There is something laying deep within him. Something dormant. Something dark. I'll have to keep my eyes on him, because chances are, this can't be good.
