Reggie Tomlin

Of the Control Team

Role:

Communications Officer – Site Radios, Frequencies, Emergency Broadcast

Connection to Red McCrae:

Red used to poke fun at Reggie. Called him “Shortwave” and teased him about talking to ghosts through static. But when Red needed someone to record a “private shift log,” he gave Reggie a frequency and said,

“If anything happens to me, it’ll start there.”

Reggie still has that recording. He hasn’t told anyone.

Personality:

Skeptical, sarcastic, and a little too intense. Reggie’s the kind of guy who logs everything — not because he’s nosy, but because he doesn’t trust anyone’s memory. He’s sharp and observant, and when he says “That’s weird,” you should listen.

Background:

Reggie built the internal radio system after the 2003 quake. He’s since caught dozens of strange broadcasts — numbers stations, ghost echoes, overlapping shift chatter.

After Red died, Channel 3 went live again.
It shouldn’t have.
No one else was broadcasting.
But Reggie recorded it.

And heard two voices.


Character Goal:

Keep the recordings safe. Find out who’s broadcasting. And figure out if Red’s voice is echoing from the past — or somewhere much closer.


Tasks – Track your own points

🎭 Social Tasks (1 pt each)

Say the following lines privately, like you’re sharing a disturbing truth — or daring someone to lie:

  • To Charlie Hargrove: “That ping you logged — you sure it wasn’t after he died?”

  • To Jonah Briggs: “You want your story? I’ve got it on tape. Hope you can handle it.”

  • To Gabe Porter: “Your code didn’t fail. It heard something.”


🤝 Interaction Task (2 pt)

Task: Lie About a Clue

You’ll be given (or pretend to have) an audio recording. Lie about what it contains when asked — change the voice, the timestamp, or the message.


🔥 Suspicious Task (2 pt)

Task: Mark a False Path on the Tunnel Map

Quietly alter a tunnel path on the shared map. If someone asks why, say “That’s where the signal came from.” Make it sound credible.


🕵️ Assigned Personal Questions (Answer if asked, don’t volunteer)

  1. From Anabelle Carrington: “What did you hear on Channel 3?”

  2. From Sarah Talbot: “Do you think Red sent that ping post-mortem?”

  3. From Charlie Hargrove: “Why didn’t you log that strange recording?”

You can lie, deflect, or drop one terrifying truth. Your call.


🎯 Bonus Objective (6 pt)

Be the first to find the deposit cores. As it might hide a clue to who may have done it...
