Description

Eugene, the self-proclaimed “Protector of Harbourtown”, also appeared in our Steam Next Fest Demo. When and where he’s from isn’t clear, other than his quest is to rid New Wirral of the undead… but something doesn’t quite seem right. Why are these vampires wearing suits?

Eugene is a young man in his 20s from the North American continent.[1] He has bleached hair (excluding his eyebrows and parts of his sideburns) and wears a pink jacket with a lime green zipper and black shoulder pads, along with jeans and white and lime trainers.

He declares himself the "Defender of Harbourtown" and actively steps up to defend those in danger, often doing so a little over-the-top, having openly threatened to fight people in public. Despite his loud and passionate demeanor, Eugene cares deeply for the well-being of others and the safety of the community.

History

Eugene was born in 2076.[2] About midway through the 21st century, his world underwent a revolution that is implied to have abolished capitalism.[3]

Shortly after completing the tutorial, Eugene will appear in Harbourtown, where he confronts two Landkeepers. After the Landkeepers leave, Eugene asks the player to help him defeat the Landkeepers. This starts Eugene's quest Acting On Your Best Behaviour.

Eugene describes how helping others became more important than one's wealth or status[4] but highlights his own struggle. This self-reflection is seemingly what drives Eugene to renovate the Landkeeper Office in Harbourtown Outskirts into a community garden, which is revealed when the player reaches relationship level 5 with him.
