About

When the Mayor's second aide, Ted was tragically killed trying to save some children during the Homeless invasion, Mayor McDaniels spent a while with only a single aide, Johnson, by her side. Realizing she needed more help, a new aide eventually joined her, and though quiet, he's made sure to follow the boss around. He helped her and Johnson out with pitching the SoDoSoPa project in hopes of revitalizing the town, and usually sits in on City Council meetings to help control crisis situations.
