History

Founded by a group of visionary entrepreneurs, TuxeVault Bank was established to provide a reliable and trustworthy financial institution for the people of Fondent region. The bank's founders, all passionate Tuxemon trainers and breeders, recognized the need for a bank that understood the unique needs of the Fondent community. In the early years, TuxeVault Bank focused on serving the local community, providing loans and financial services to Tuxemon trainers, breeders, and small business owners. The bank's commitment to personalized service and community involvement earned it a reputation as a trusted and reliable partner. As Fondent region grew and prospered, TuxeVault Bank expanded its services to meet the evolving needs of its customers. The bank introduced innovative products and services, such as Tuxemon-themed savings accounts and loans specifically designed for Tuxemon training and breeding.

The Rise of the Cathedral and the Need for Independence

In the last 4 decades, the Cathedral, a powerful and influential conglomerate, began to expand its reach into Fondent region. The Cathedral's subsidiaries, including Greenwash, Scoop, Nimrod, Shaft, and Omnichannel, started to dominate various industries, from genetic engineering to media and publishing. TuxeVault Bank's founders and management recognized the potential risks of the Cathedral's growing influence and decided to maintain the bank's independence. They believed that a locally owned and operated bank was essential to preserving the unique character of Fondent region and serving the needs of its citizens.

Challenges and Opportunities

Over the years, TuxeVault Bank has faced challenges from the Cathedral's subsidiaries, which have attempted to acquire or partner with the bank. However, the bank's commitment to independence and its focus on serving the local community have allowed it to maintain its autonomy. Today, TuxeVault Bank is a thriving institution, proud of its heritage and commitment to the people of Fondent region. The bank remains a beacon of independence, providing a trusted and reliable financial partner for the community.

Bank Ground Floor

Characters

Enforcer Bob, ex employee (laid off): I used to think this bank stood for something - independence, a beacon against the Cathedral's shadow. But the more I dug, the more I saw cracks. Strange transfers, unaccounted funds, whispers of deals with Cathedral subsidiaries. They let me go when I started asking questions. Be careful, Argon. If they know you're here, they might think you're either a liability… or an opportunity.

Enforcer May, Wealth Manager:

• Think you can handle the world of high finance? TuxeVault is no small fry, and I’ve built portfolios bigger than you can imagine. But don’t think for a second that I’m naive—word has it that Cathedral’s got their eyes on us, and with you skulking around, I’m starting to think you’re part of the problem.
• Well, well. You’ve got the chops, I’ll admit that. But whether you’re here to protect the bank or burn it down, don’t think I’m going to sit quietly."

Enforcer Brock, Security Guard:

• Argon, right? I’ve read the incident reports. You’ve been poking around places that raise eyebrows. If you think we’ll let you waltz in here without a fight, you’re dead wrong. Whether it’s Cathedral or rogue agents, this place has its fair share of threats.
• You’re tougher than you look. But I’ll be stepping up security - TuxeVault’s independence is non-negotiable, and I can’t afford to take any chances.

Enforcer Daisy, Branch Manager:

• Rumor has it you’ve got a knack for stirring up trouble. I’ve heard the whispers from Fondent about you. If you’re here for answers, you won’t find them so easily. But first, let’s see what you’ve got.
• Hmm. You’re formidable, I’ll give you that. Maybe you’re not as reckless as I thought. Still, watch your step - there’s a lot at stake here.

Bank 1st Floor

Characters

Enforcer Jeff, Cleaner: They call it TuxeVault - the epitome of independence - but I’ve seen things that don’t add up. Papers left behind, encrypted notes, payments marked ‘confidential.’ And now you show up, Argon? Just… be careful. If Cathedral’s really involved, it’s not just our independence at risk—it’s the truth.

Rubbish bin: As you dig through the trash, you find a crumpled receipt: 'Archipelago Freight - Lumber shipment to Fondent Region (Confidential).' Below it, another document: 'TerraForm Developers - Prototype facility construction (Project Eclipse).' A torn note scribbled hastily reads: 'Meet J at powerplant. Discuss energy output. Eyes everywhere—don’t get caught.'

Enforcer Raj, Customer:

• I’m just here to deposit my paycheck, but the tension in this place is unbearable. They say TuxeVault prides itself on independence, but with all the rumors about Cathedral trying to take control? I don’t know what to believe anymore. Even you being here raises questions, Argon.
• You’re more involved in this than you’re letting on, aren’t you? I think I’ll keep my distance from this bank for now.

Enforcer Lile, Financial Analyst:

• I’ve been tracking some unusual market trends tied to Cathedral subsidiaries—patterns that point to a takeover attempt. But to prove it, I need someone to test my theories against. What do you say?
• Looks like I still have work to do. TuxeVault’s independence is hanging by a thread, and I’m determined to stop Cathedral from taking over.

Enforcer Kai, Auditor:

• The records don’t lie—except when they do. Someone’s trying to hide something big, and the discrepancies point to Cathedral’s involvement. But if you’re here, Argon, you might have answers I need. Care to enlighten me?
• You’re not the villain I thought you’d be, but I still don’t trust coincidences. If Cathedral’s pulling strings, we need to expose them.

Bank 2nd Floor

Characters

Enforcer Ethan, Tax Advisor:

• TuxeVault’s books look clean, too clean. It’s like someone scrubbed the truth away, but not perfectly. Some of the gaps point straight to Cathedral’s operations. Argon, you’ve been around enough to know: how deep does this go?
• You’ve got guts. Maybe with someone like you, I can finally expose the lies beneath the numbers.

Enforcer Ava, Compliance Officer:

• I’ve flagged transactions that don’t make sense—money flowing through Cathedral subsidiaries, disguised as legitimate deals. But without proof, it’s just speculation. Are you here to help, or to make things worse?
• You’ve got more to you than meets the eye. If you care about the truth, you’ll watch your step. Cathedral doesn’t play fair.

Enforcer Lucas, Money Launderer:

• You’ve got guts coming here, Argon. I hear whispers from Fondent, your name, your work. Whatever you’re looking for, it won’t come cheap. But I can make you an offer that’ll make us both rich.
• So you’re not interested in deals? Fine. But watch your back—people don’t walk away from offers like mine without consequences.

CEO Aurora, CEO:

• Ah, Argon. I wondered how long it would take for you to show up. You think your escape from Fondent was clean? You left ripples, and now they’re crashing here, at TuxeVault. Cathedral won’t stop until they own everything, this bank, this region, and your secrets.
• You’ve won this battle, but the Cathedral doesn’t stop. You’ll never uncover the truth about Project Eclipse, the powerplant, or the experiments in the mountains. Walk away while you still can, Argon. Or don’t - I’ve already made my moves.
