Malachi Rector

In Moebius, players step into the expensive shoes of Malachi Rector, a genius antiquities appraiser and millionaire misanthrope. Malachi treats most people with a cold and distant arrogance. He isn’t fond of personal relationships, and is only passingly familiar with his shop manager Gretchen who’s worked for him for five years. He’s confident in his belief that people are imperfect, while objects to him are much more reliable – and valuable. Money seems to be his main motivator, and he’s obviously done quite well in that regard thanks to his keen eye for detail and photographic memory.

When he is suddenly contacted by a man whom he has never heard of, and can find no information on, little does he know how deeply his life is about to change. As events begin to unfold, Malachi may soon find himself becoming more reliant on others than he had ever imagined.

David Walker

David Walker is the second lead of Moebius. We meet him when Malachi’s rented jeep breaks down on a desert road outside Cairo, and David stops to help. Even when Malachi displays a threatening level of mistrust toward him, David laughs it off and even refuses payment for the good deed.

With classic American boy-next-door looks, the blonde-haired, blue-eyed David Walker is a retired Captain of the United States Army Special Forces. However, he lost his taste for the military after spending time training foreign armies to disarm protesters. A far more social man than Malachi, David currently wanders the globe, looking for somewhere new to belong with important work to do. He’s a protector by nature, and honorable to his bones. Malachi may not want a friend, but once David sees that Malachi needs him, he’s not so easy to shake.

Stay tuned next week for more information, which will include discussing the game’s various locations as well as touching upon the Moebius Theory itself.
