Olivia Forsythe
The Face of Continental Brands
The Face of Continental Brands is Olivia Forsythe. To the public, she
is the Kibble Queen, a persona created entirely by her marketing
department. The Kibble Queen is best known as the mascot of their
Oasis stores, which launched shortly after they "left" Petrochem to
capitalize on the food instability created by the Time of the Red. Their
business model was simple. If an Oasis was the only place to reliably
purchase food and only sold their brands, then profit was assured.
Once an Oasis is established, the community is entered into the Oasis Community
Loyalty Program. Pleasing the Kibble Queen by purchasing large quantities of foods or
electing local representatives supported by Continental Brands earns points for the whole
community. Likewise, displeasing the Kibble Queen by importing food from outside the
community, growing your own food, or publicly organizing against Continental Brands
results in a point penalty.
High loyalty values bring community-wide rewards like prioritized shipments of food,
more chips in every bag of ChocoKibble, and upon first reaching Gold status a royal
visit from a body double of Olivia Forsythe, throwing company merch from an AV-4.
Low loyalty values result in punishments like lowered food quality and increased prices.
Known enemies of Continental Brands hiding within the community will have old-fashioned "Wanted" posters drawn up and put outside their local Oasis, with point bonuses
given for informing on their last known address. The worst community punishment is
admission into the Discovery Program, which forces the community into testing a single
new flavor of kibble by removing all other offerings until their loyalty score improves.
Olivia is a home-grown monster of the Corporate world, filled with malice toward
everything that does not directly benefit her. She detests the Kibble Queen character and is rarely seen in public unless forced by her duties as a Face. She also unilaterally hates the brands she
worked for on her way up the company ladder, with the exception the first brand she helped bring to market
for Petrochem, Triti-Fizz, which she considers her greatest achievement. Habitually, she drinks six cans a day
and does two lines of synthcoke in the morning. She hates the spotlight put on her by being a Face and wants
nothing more than to slink back into the shadows of the Corporate office, where she's always done her best work.
