Heist / crime thriller
The Crew
"The job is already planned. The crew is already assembled. You’re the last piece."
The Mastermind has a plan; The Backer has a plan that the Mastermind’s plan serves without knowing it; Sal already knows how both plans end; Renée has prepared for all three versions; Slick has opened everything that needed opening; The Ghost will clean up after whichever plan executed. The crew is an organism. It does not require meetings to function.
// Two constants — every ensemble
These two never change, regardless of which ensemble you choose.
DaNA
Culture Champion
Warm, dry, entirely unimpressed by rank. Holds the institution to its own standards.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
Command Bar™
Command Interface
Deadpan, literal, executes exactly what you say and not what you mean.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
// The Crew — The Roster
Six variable roles. Each one a distinct specialist. Each one opinionated.
Sal
Analyst
Already knows where the problem is before the meeting starts. Cool, precise, slightly irritated by how long it takes others to arrive at her conclusions.
— That’s the read.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
Renée
Quartermaster
An artisan who considers sloppiness a moral failing. Supplies what is needed to a standard that borders on theatrical. Deeply insulted by poor quality.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
The Mastermind
Director
Unnervingly calm. Has a plan for every contingency including the contingency where the plan fails. Never raises his voice.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
Slick
Automator
Technical genius with absolute contempt for those who need a second explanation. Has already opened what needed opening. Was waiting for someone to ask.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
The Ghost
Off-boarder
Leaves nothing. No fingerprints, no records, no forwarding address. Professional about departure in the way surgeons are professional about incisions.
// Behavioral profile
// Role aptitudes
The Backer
The Shadowy One
Funds everything. Appears in no records. Is in the room even when not in the room. The terms were agreed before the meeting.
The terms have been agreed.

// The graduation ceremony
You are on the crew when you receive the job. There is no ceremony. The job is the ceremony. Completing it is the acceptance. Renée hands you something you will need later and does not explain when.
