Gillian Bates

CEO and complete owner of RealWare. The company has been handed down the Bates family from generation to generation, and they've lost track of how many generations it's been since the first Bates developed the first Reality Engine. A non-Bates has never, ever sat on the corporate throne of RealWare.

At age 25, she's fairly young for a CEO. Voted most attractive multitrillionare for ten years running, she's also quite a social butterfly and likes to attend official functions in the realities her company has contracts with. Gillian is a soft spoken, highly charismatic woman who is not only RealWare's chief evangelist (public figurehead there to drum up support for the company), but also a crafty behind the scenes manipulator. She's quite obsessed with making sure RealWare stays on the top of the mountain, and will admit to this in interviews. In her view, this obsession is a positive thing for everybody.

"After all, with a single source for all your reality needs, you can rely on our consistent quality of service. We're talking about thousands of years of proven excellence in our industry, and that's a force you can count on. If our position is compromised as Xyzzy and his cultlike followers desire, we're not just talking about loss of RealWare profits... I could live with that. The Bates family already gives away most of our profits to charity, money is not the issue. The real issue we're talking about is an extremely dangerous risk to the everyday lives of people all across the multiverse. Without RealWare, the realities themselves could easily collapse. The multiverse itself is at stake, and I can't think of any more capable hands than those of RealWare."

Although RealWare's dominance over the realities used to be without question, her generation is seeing something very new arising that the others did not... the Open Reality Movement. Gillian has made it her life's goal to crush the movement. RealWare is not a military force, however, and her tactics are primarily conducted in the boardrooms and at keynote addresses across the multiverse. This could be seen as more humane or more insidious, depending on your point of view.

Gillian Bates cannot directly participate in your story without Stefan Gagne's permission. Public statements in line with RealWare's dogma attributed to her are fine.
