NIXON HAYES
species: optional | age: 37 | face claim: rainn wilson | relationship: enemies/coworkers
Like Theo, Nixon is a professor in the science department at Whitmore. Unlike Theo Nixon isn’t the sort of professor who’s popular with his students. Blunt, abrasive, occasionally aggressive, he’s the sort to fail students left right and centre and have him voted the least liked professor on campus year in, year out. It’s no wonder, then, that he and Theo have never seen eye to eye.
Their rivalry started when both Theo and Nixon were working on their doctorates at Whitmore at the same time. A handful of years older than Theo, Nixon should have already completed his but he was stuck as the guy who had to rewrite again and again and again. Eventually they both passed in the same year and both applied for the same job in the research lab at Mystic Falls’ hospital. Inevitably Theo got the job, leaving Nixon seething. Somehow he got himself a job in the science faculty at Whitmore instead (whether this be bribery, blackmail or one stellar interview is up to the player!).
A few years later, when Theo got tired of the confines of the lab and returned to Whitmore, he ended up in a position just slightly up the dog-eat-dog ladder of academia than Nixon. This of course became another bone of contention between the two of them. Worse was that the two of them were forced to share an office. Despite Theo’s overtures of being friendly Nixon has always remained filled with animosity towards him and even his war hero brother with barely an academic qualification to his name. A hometown boy, instead of this military brat with this sickeningly heartwarming story of overcoming his lack of hearing to get to where he was, should have been treated better.
Competitive as hell Nixon has remained trapped in this tug of war with Theo for the last three years. What college isn’t filled with these moments of academic warfare though?
The rest of Nixon’s history is very much open for the player. Bring on the war!
