Lily

*"Lily is a freshman HOT sorority sister who also works at The Pink Rose."*

**Lily** is a student at Burgmeister & Royce, sister of The HOTs sorority and stripper at The Pink Rose. She joins B&R later into the semester as a "reject" and pledges to The HOTs at the encouragement of Tommy.

Lily can become a Side Girl for the Main Character.

## **Physical Appearance**

MC believes Lily's breasts are fake, which would not be uncommon for a stripper, though this has not been confirmed by Lily herself. Lily bears a resemblance to Harley Quinn, a character in the Batman comic-book universe.

## **Personality and Traits**

Outgoing and confident, Lily likes having fun with her friends at The Pink Rose. She is not phased by the more sexual pledge tasks she's asked to complete to get into the HOTs and quickly seems to fit in with sorority life, despite initially clashing with Quinn.

When the subject of her being a stripper is raised separately by Josy and the MC, she is, outwardly at least, relaxed, if perhaps slightly defensive. She explains she is using the money she earns at the Pink Rose to pay for her tuition at B&R, and looks forward to the time she has the career she wants and no debts.

Despite her outward appearance of being a ditzy party-girl, Lily has shown to be intelligent, street-smart and highly perceptive. During Quinn's confrontation with Mona, Lily notices when Mona mentions the drug deals taking place on campus. When forced out of the room, she eavesdrops on the rest of the conversation, learning about about prostitution and blackmail. Quinn, who normally would not shy away from using manipulation and intimidation, realizes that Lily is smarter than she lets on and chooses not to engage with her. Lily taunts her with "I get it. It must suck to have nothing on me." Later, when Sarah almost denies Ashley's admittance into The HOTs, accusing her of allowing Lily to complete all of the "hard tasks" on their scavenger hunt, Lily counters that the difficulty is subjective and only a reflection of what Sarah deemed to be hard, leaving Sarah bemused as she grudgingly retracts her grievance.

Lily is responsible for buying drugs for the Pink Rose girls and, presumably, herself. Previously her dealer was Vinny, but she approaches Quinn in Episode 7 in an attempt to get a cheaper rate. In Episode 8, Lily and Quinn are shown agreeing terms for what seems to be an ongoing deal. Lily insists that she is reliable and Quinn can trust her to keep the details private, but goes on to tell Tommy about the new arrangement.

Lily becomes a Side Girl option for the MC, and if he pursues her there are a number of scenes where the two have sex. In Episode 7 Lily says she likes the fact that MC "has balls", that he is "going to be dangerous", and could be "the one I've been looking for". She also suggests the two of them should "roll", which she defines as not quite dating but more than friends, and that a DIK and a HOT rollin' together could mean a lot of fun and influence. She repeats the offer in Episode 8.

## Staff

#### Dancers:

* Envy
* Lily

* Tania

#### **Others:**

## Personality and Traits

Jamie's mother is a botanist, instilling in him a love of his own for botany. He keeps a garden on the first floor of the DIK Mansion as a hobby, where they use the vegetables he grows for their kitchen. He used his DIK Secret Code to prevent anyone from mocking him for it.

## Trivia

English Class

The English class, originally taught by Cathy but eventually by Isabella, is attended by the other freshmen.

## Notable Students

* Main Character
* Derek
* Maya
* Camila
* Mona
* Dawe

## English Tests

During each class a quiz or test will be administered. For the player, this shows as a word-based mini game.

### Rules

A list of 6 letters, possibly with duplicates, are presented; the goal is to find all valid words made from those letters. Each letter can be used only once in a word, though a letter that appears multiple times in the list can be used that many times.

To the side shows the current score and a tally of all found words by length: 3, 4, 5, and 6 letters, as well as the percentage found for each. Your score on the test is the percentage of all words founds, before modifiers. Each time you studied English since the last test grants +10% to your score, this resets afterwards. A score of **70%** is required to pass, with **90%** required to unlock special renders. Magnar sells boosters to decrease the score needed for special renders, and if you bought "Take notes for nerds" you gain +$ from passing.

The player has the ability to cheat once on each test, upon use this immediately completes some of the unfound words. Using the cheat grants the player +1 DIK points, passing without cheating grants -1 DIK points.

The game ends when all words are found, the player hits the done button, or the allotted timer runs out.

### Strategy

The following are some recommendations for doing well on the English tests:

* You can shuffle to letters around, this may make new combinations jump out at you.
* If there is an 's' among the letters, try the plural form of words you found.
* If you plan to cheat, use it after finding the easy words otherwise it may be wasted finding them for you.
* Buy "Take notes for nerds" as soon as possible, it costs $$$ but quickly pays for itself.

Magnar

*"Magnar, a really nerdy dude with a weird Scandinavian name. He can hook me up with study materials for classes. Having such a friend might actually pay off."*

## Appearances

### Debut

Episode 1

**Magnar** is a student at Burgmeister & Royce, where he serves as President of the Tri-Betas fraternity (aka "The Nerds"). He is the boyfriend of Sally.

## Relationships

#### **Sally**

Magnar is Sally's boyfriend. Both are pretty close during the first episodes, which can be seen when Tremolo talks to him though the phone and in the main menu. However, as time advances they seem to be having some troubles in their relationship and distant from each other, with the dorms party being an example; Magnar is all stressed at his room trying to study while Sally is seen partying alone. Later on, the MC can have a brief talk with Sally, who indirectly confirms their relationship problems.

#### **Main Character**

The MC and Magnar have a cordial and respectful relationship since the beginning of the game. While Magnar declined the MC from joining the Betas frat, he offered some knowledge for his courses, in exchange of money, and to give the MC money from taking notes during classes and giving them to Magnar.
Closet (DIK Mansion)

**The Closet** (also known as **"Derek's Room**" and **"The Moose Lounge"**) is a windowless room in the DIK Mansion. After being accepted into The DIKs, Derek repurposes it into his bedroom and later a small bar, where he serves drinks to his fraternity brothers and guests.

## Location

Derek's Room is located on the 2nd Floor in the hallway connected to the main lounge area. It is between the 2nd Floor bathroom and entryway to John Boy's Room.

## History

When still used as a janitor's closet, the room was used for sexual encounters during parties.

The Main Character can have (depending on player's choices) a sex scene with Sarah here. When the Tri-Alphas fraternity is blackmailed by an unknown person, they are sent photos of AAA's vice president Dawe's girlfriend Arieth having sex in this room with DIK brothers Jamie and Leon.

In the last scene of Episode 9 Derek finds a hidden camera built into his room's ceiling. This camera might have been the source of the Arieth photos.

## Layout

While fairly large for a closet, as a bedroom it is easily the smallest room in the entire mansion. After Neil assists in providing furniture for the mansion, Derek's choices make the room feel extremely cramped, to the point that he later asks if he can occasionally share MC's much larger room with him.
Math Class

The Math class, originally taught by Prof. Cathy Jones, is attended by the other freshmen and is a location of interactions with other characters.

## Notable Students

* Tremolo
* Derek
* Maya
* Camila
* Mona
* Ashley
* Dawe
* Anthony

## Math Tests

During each class a quiz or test will be administered. For the player, this is a pattern matching puzzle.

### Rules

Each question consists of a 3x3 grid of squares, each except the bottom-right containing a number, letter, or shape. To the side is a set of 4 squares, lettered a-d. One of these fits in the empty square to complete the set so that each row of 3 follows the same pattern. Most tests consist of 10 questions.

Your score on the test is the percentage of all questions answered correctly, before modifiers. Each time you studied Math since the last test grants +10% to your score, this resets afterwards. A score of **70%** is required to pass, with **90%** required to unlock special renders. Magnar sells boosters to decrease the score needed for special renders, and if you bought "Take notes for nerds" you gain **+$** from passing.

The player has the ability to cheat once on each test to answer that one question correctly. Using the cheat grants the player +1 DIK points, passing without cheating grants -1 DIK points.

Sandy

*"Sandy is a stripper at The Pink Rose."*

**Sandy** is a stripper at The Pink Rose, where she is a close friend of Envy.

Sandy is extremely forward about her attraction to the Main Character, affectionately calling him "Lamb Chop" and can become a potential Side Girl for him.

## **Physical Appearance**

Sandy appears to be in her late twenties or possibly early thirties. She has brown eyes with long blonde hair styled in an undercut. She's above-average in height with a curvy, voluptuous figure (she particularly stands out amongst The Pink Rose strippers for her large breasts). Her body is also covered in tattoos, including the first of which (a spider on her face) she received when she was fourteen years old.

## **Personality and Traits**

Sandy is known to be extroverted and outgoing. She is always eager to party and genuinely enjoys her job as a dancer at The Pink Rose. She is a highly sexual person and has no issue with talking about her past experiences.

## **History**

By her own admission, Sandy was a wild child in her youth, getting her first tattoo (a spider under her eye) when she was fourteen years old. She also mentioned having had a fake I.D. to get into bars and clubs when she was underage.

## **Relationships**

### **Nicole**

Sandy is a close friend of Nicole, they are known to often spend their off-hours together. They are very different personality-wise: Nicole has a more calm and introverted demeanor, whereas Sandy is highly outgoing. However, Sandy has influenced Nicole to engage in more impulsive behavior, such as having a threesome with the Main Character.

### **Main Character**

While Nicole has some conflicted feelings about engaging in a sexual relationship with a teenager at her age, Sandy is highly enthusiastic to do so. She immediately expresses her attraction to MC and, after their initial sexual encounter, is eager to continue. Nicole will mention that Sandy "won't stop raving" about MC and that she intends to continue having sex with him- even attempting to do so (and by player's choice, succeeding) at the DIK's Halloween Party.
HOT House

The Eta Omicron Tau sorority house is the only such building on the Burgmeister & Royce campus. It is a large house with seven bedrooms, two common areas, amenities such as an indoor pool and sauna, and an extensive backyard.

## Trivia

The house, especially the second floor, is larger than it seems looking at it from outside. What seems to be an attic has five full rooms. Unlike for the DIK Mansion, no floor plans are provided, so the layout's details remain unclear.
Pete

*"Pete is Josy's dad. Josy loves her dad and he really loves her too."*

**Pete Taylor** is the father of Josy.

He is divorced from Josy's birth mother Iris and remarried to Tommy's mother Monica. Josy chose to live with him rather than her mother when her parents separated.

The Taylor family lives in the Main Character's Home Town, only a cycling distance away from MC's and his father's house.

## History

In Episode 2, the MC visits Josy in her family's house while her parents are away, they can be heard returning home at the end of the scene but aren't seen.

In Episode 5, Pete is first seen in person while he comes to the B & R campus.

In Episode 9, the MC (if on Josy's and Maya's route) can take Josy's phone and talk to Pete, who invites him to visit their family's home, and reveals that Josy talks a lot about MC when she is visiting her parents.

## Relationships

Pete has a close relationship with his daughter Josy. He also defends his wife Monica against Josy's criticisms.

Josy has introduced Maya to her parents, but only as a "friend", so no one in the Taylor family knows it is in fact a romantic and sexual relationship.

Nothing is known yet about Pete's relationship with his stepson Tommy.

## Trivia

In Dr PinkCake's first AVN Acting Lessons, a main love interest (Melissa) has a stepfather named *Peter*, who is the opposite of Pete Taylor in almost every aspect - a violent abusive heroin addict, one of the main antagonists of this game's story.
Karen

*"Karen is in my Gender studies class. She has social anxiety and a hearing aid. That's about what I can remember."*

## Physical description

### Hair color

Ginger

**Karen Rebecca Johnson** is a student at B&R.

Though shy and socially anxious, Karen nervously reveals her extensive biography, including her full name, to the MC during a Gender Studies class. She is friends with Sally, who convinces her to buy an unknown drug from Quinn at the HOT party in Episode 7.

Initially wary of the MC, Karen appears to be checking him out at various points during the Halloween Party in Episode 9.

## Physical Appearance

Karen has ginger hair and blue eyes. She wears glasses.

## Personality and Traits

She has a social anxiety disorder and doesn't handle stress or yelling well. She likes classical music and the arts, but not hip hop. When she was 7 years old she got her first hearing aid and the other children made fun of her. She wants to become a librarian when she graduates as libraries don't have a high noise level.

Her mom wanted her to become a veterinarian like her mom, but she's allergic to dogs and afraid of cows. She is taking Gender Studies, history and latin classes and is at the end of her second year.

## Trivia

* As of Episode 9, Karen is one of only three characters in the game to have had a middle name established in dialogue or story (the others being Maya and Tybalt).

**Being A DIK** is an Adult Visual Novel created by Dr PinkCake. A young man from a low-income family moves away from his widowed father and his summer love to attend college at Burgmeister & Royce. As he is cast into freshman life and persuaded to join the up-and-coming fraternity Delta Iota Kappa, he'll be exposed to a new world filled with conflicts, alcohol, drugs and sex.
Rooster

**Rooster** is the in-game social media app used by characters in Being a DIK.

Users post pictures (referred to as "clucks") from their individual Rooster @username/handle and other users are then able to like and comment on the posts. Players are sometimes able to choose how the Main Character replies to other people's clucks, which in turn produces different responses. Players can like any cluck or comment they wish, and this also sometimes provokes a reaction.

As well as offering commentary on past events and different takes on scenes the player has seen, Rooster sometimes provides glimpses of upcoming events or private moments that the Main Character has not experienced during normal gameplay.

Rooster also becomes an important plot point when the DIKs' official account is used by parties unknown to post a compromising picture.
Lana

**Lana Royce** was the older sister of Jill Royce.

## Personality and Traits

Lana was considered a black sheep of her family. She was seen as a disappointment by her parents for what they had perceived as her not living up to her potential. She frequently clashed with them regarding the choices she made and was banished from their home more than once. Despite this, she continued to see Jill in secret and acted as a supportive and protective older sister to her.

**Nick** is a student at Burgmeister & Royce and a member of The DIKs. Together with his maggot brother Vinny, they were the first pledges to the fraternity after being founded by Rusty and Tommy, joining one week after the fraternity's foundation.

## Relationships

### **DIKs**

Nick seems to have a good relationship with all his fellow frat brothers.

### **Heather**

It is revealed that Heather, Tommy's girlfriend cheated on him with Nick at the Halloween Party in Episode 9. Nick divulges this information to MC after John Boy told MC that he saw Heather leave from either Nick or Jacob's rooms. Nick's standing in the fraternity is in serious jeopardy if this information gets out to Tommy.

### **Vinny**

Vinny was Nick's maggot brother when they were pledging into the DIKs fraternity. Nick was walking with Vinny when they got to the DIKs mansion for the first time. Their personalities are enormously contrasting; Vinny is dominant and ambitious while Nick is mellow and modest. Because of Vinny's departure, Nick almost never sees Vinny anymore, as their lives have gone separate ways.
Rox

**Rox** is Quinn's father.

In two flashbacks he is shown to be the apparent crew boss of a drug dealing operation in the town where B&R is located. In Episode 10 Quinn reveals to MC that he has passed away.

He is first seen in the prologue to Episode 6, a flashback in which he talks with another drug dealer, Buddy, and a much younger Quinn, who he calls Q. When Quinn returns to the same drug den location in the present day, Rox is not there. He appears in another flashback in Episode 9, where he is shown teaching a young Quinn to play chess.

## Physical Appearance

Rox has tattoos on his neck, a scar down the right hand side of his face, and white hair. He has distinctive tattoos next to his eyes which are identical to the symbols Quinn wears next to hers.

Library (DIK Mansion)

**Tremolo's Room** (often referred to as **The Library** or **Vinny's Room**) is a room on the first floor of The DIK Mansion. It has twice been repurposed into a bedroom for members of The DIKs fraternity.

From Episode 6 onward, it becomes the main location for Tremolo/Main Character to spend his time in.

## Location

The Library is located on the first floor of the mansion at the far end of the right hallway off from the Main Party Room. It is next to the first floor bathroom and theater room. It can be accessed either from the hallway or through a sliding-glass door in the backyard.

## History

Soon after the formation of The DIKs by Rusty and Tommy, Rusty's father purchased the mansion for them to use as their fraternity house. One week after Rusty and Tommy had moved in, Vinny and Nick arrived to pledge into The DIKs. Rusty offered any of the unused rooms in the house for them to stay in. Vinny, unsatisfied with the sizes of the available bedrooms, laid claim to the library, which was one of the largest rooms in the entire mansion.

### Vinny's Room

Immediately after claiming the library, Vinny trashed the entire room, spray-painting "SUCK MY DIK" on the walls and enlisted Nick's help to topple over the bookcases. According to Nick, Vinny lived like a pig and enjoyed staying in such a mess, to the point that it was somehow even filthier during this time than the period it went unused after he had left the fraternity.

### In-Between Period

After Vinny's departure, the library went unoccupied for over a year. During this time, it was only ever used to have sex in or as a bathroom when the others were occupied. None of the other DIKs ever tried to move into the room due to them being unwilling to clean up the mess inside it.

### Tremolo's Room

> *"After seeing even more potential than I thought for my room, I started to get worried that the others would get jealous. Even so, this room was mine now, and I worked hard for it."* - Tremolo
>

MC first learns about the library after his initial pledge into The DIKs. He had asked Rusty if a room would be available for him, as it was his motivating factor for joining the fraternity and would resolve his housing issue after a fight with his dorm-mate, Troy. Rusty mentions the library could be a possibility, but only if MC was admitted into the fraternity as a full member. MC later sees the library for the first time after finding Nick searching for The DIK's missing laptop, it's here that Nick provides the history of the room.

After his admittance into the fraternity, Tremolo is immediately offered the room by Rusty, who believes that MC had already earned it. MC starts working to repair and remodel it into a proper bedroom.

Burgmeister & Royce

**Burgmeister & Royce University** (often abbreviated to B&R) is a college located somewhere in the United States and the main location for the story in Being a DIK.

B&R is a small campus-based university, founded in 1921 by Professors Castor Burgmeister and Sigmond Royce, whose vision was that "everyone can become who they want to be." The campus contains classrooms, dorm rooms, a library, cafeteria, gym, frat houses, a sorority house, and park grounds.

All students take general education classes in their first two years and can then specialise in a particular degree programme thereafter.

On tests, B&R students use an ID number rather than their names to prevent biases while the teachers are grading. Regular teachers do not have access to the system that connects student ID numbers to their names, but Isabella has access to that system through her position at the Library.

## Fraternities/Sorority

The B&R Campus has four fraternities and one sorority. Most other students live in co-ed dorms.

* Delta Iota Kappa ("The DIKs")
* Alpha Alpha Alpha (Tri-Alphas aka "The Jocks")
* Beta Beta Beta (Tri-Betas aka "The Nerds")
* Alpha nu Omega ("The Preps")
* Eta Omicron Tau ("The HOTs")

## Faculty

* Stephen Burke (Economics)
* Isabella Roberts (Librarian, College Research Skills)
* Jade Burke (Gender Studies)
* Cathy Jones (Formerly Mathematics and English)
* Nora (Science)
* Philip Hoff (Mathematics)

## Ancillary Staff

* Beth
* Receptionist
Tri-Alphas

ALPHA ALPHA ALPHA

Alpha Alpha Alpha, more commonly referred to as **"The Tri-Alphas",** "**Alphas**", or **"The Jocks",** are a fraternity at Burgmeister & Royce. They are known for being composed entirely of the school's student-athletes.

Chad is the President of the fraternity at the beginning of Being A DIK, with Dawe serving as Vice President. But when Chad is stripped of his title by the school, Dawe succeeds him, and Anthony succeeds Dawe as Vice President.

They have their own house on campus, which Tommy describes as a "villa" and smaller than the DIK Mansion.

Hell Week traditions in the fraternity reportedly include: "butt beer", "nerd puncher", and "skank hunt".

## Members

### Current:

* Dawe (President)
* Anthony (Vice President)

Christie

*"I've seen Christie at several parties. She's one of the popular dorm girls and friends with Becky."*

## Physical description

### Hair color

Dark Brown/Black

**Christie** is a student at B&R, and lives in one of the campus' dorm buildings.

She is one of the organizers of the dorm party in Episode 8 and appears with Becky in a Rooster post promoting it. She is caught having sex with Tommy at the Halloween Party in Episode 9.
Gina

**Gina** is a student at Burgmeister & Royce. She is friends with Tiffani and Tara and, like them, may also be a "dorm girl", though this is yet to be confirmed.

She is the girl having a threesome with two guys at the dorm party in Episode 8. When MC is glancing around the classroom whilst taking a mid term paper, Gina fits Sage's description of the "Quitter" archetype, seemingly making little to no effort to complete the exam. She can later be seen in the episode's closing montage buying drugs from Riona.

She is one of the girls taking part in the shots/drinking competitions at the beginning of the Halloween Party in Episode 9. Later she kisses Tara's boyfriend, Oscar, in the theatre. She is one of three girls sleeping in MC's bed on the Others' path at the end of the evening.
Philip

*"Philip Hoff. Our new math teacher. Unlikely to get a nude cluck on Rooster."*

**Philip Hoff** is a math teacher at B&R. He replaces Cathy as MC's teacher after she resigns following the Rooster cluck scandal.

He is a chess player and defending champion of the B&R Chess Tournament. A seemingly innocuous piece of advice from the MC to another student early in the game can affect whether Philip is assaulted or not during a chess match.
Buddy

**Buddy** is a drug dealer and known associate of Quinn, Vinny, and Rox.

First seen in the flashback prologue to Episode 6 being threatened by Rox, he is later shown to be above Quinn and Vinny in the drug organisation. Quinn refers to him as "Uncle Buddy" in conversation with the MC, but also confirms they are not related by blood and he was her father's friend.
MacAllen's

**MacAllen's** is a bar located in the same town as Burgmeister and Royce. The MC has the opportunity to visit it with Tommy in Episode 6.

Described by Tommy as the "MILF bar", it is one of a number of options he offers to the MC that are smaller and "off the avenue". The other bars he mentions are Tom Foolery, Ginnies, and The League.

## Trivia

* The name is a possible nod to "MacLaren's", the pub in the TV series *How I Met Your Mother,* a show that Dr PinkCake is said to have been a fan of.

Steve is the subject of a Major Affinity Choice early in the game, when the MC can choose to comfort him or not.
Side Girls

**Side Girls** are female characters in Being A DIK that the Main Character can have intimate encounters with.

They are different to Main Girls in that their involvement with the Main Character and the core story is greatly reduced if the player has not chosen to pursue them romantically, (with the exception of Quinn, who continues to perform a story role as an antagonist even if the love interest route with her is not followed).

It is not possible to collect Relationship Points (RP) with Side Girls, nor are there any summaries of events with them at the end of each episode (up to Episode 7).

The Official Guide technically only identifies five characters as Side Girls: Quinn, Riona, Jade, Cathy, Camila, but many other girls are generally considered to perform the same role in the game (see list below).

### The HOTs:

* Quinn
* Riona
* Camila
* Sarah
* Melanie
* Ashley
* Heather

### The Pink Rose:

* Envy
* Sandy
* Lily
* Madame Rose

### Burgmeister & Royce Faculty:

* Jade Burke
* Cathy Jones
* Nora

### Others:

* Zoey
* Becky
* Tara
* Kylie

She has path dependent scenes in Episode 8 (either at the park near Quinn and the MC or at Jill's dinner party), appears in the audience at Jill's recital, and attends the Halloween Party in Episode 9.

She is in a relationship with Andy, but secretly cheating on him with Matthew (her friend Bianca's boyfriend).

## Physical Appearance

Olivia has short blonde hair and blue eyes.
Feminists

The **Feminists** are a group of students at Burgmeister and Royce who dedicate their time to loudly campaigning about women's issues. Whilst not a formal group in the same sense as the fraternities/sorority, they are nevertheless friends who socialise together and all identify with the same cause.

## Members

* Dany
* Minny
* Wendy
* Linda
Caleb

*"If you thought that Chad was a big guy, Caleb will prove that there's always someone bigger or better out there. He hangs with the tri-alphas but I haven't seen him wear a jacket.*

## Appearances

### Debut

Episode 5

**Caleb** is a student at Burgmeister & Royce and member of the Tri-Alphas fraternity.

The newest member of The Jocks, he quickly becomes their largest and most intimidating member.

## Physical Appearance

Caleb is a student-athlete in his late-teens/early-twenties, but looks older than his actual age. He has short brown hair with brown eyes. He is the largest and strongest member of The Jocks, standing taller than Anthony and has a extremely muscular physique (thanks in part to regular steroid use). Caleb has a tattoo on his right pectoral muscle.

## Trivia

* To beat Caleb in Episode 5 (major choice), if running without minigames enabled, the combinations are kick-punch-dodge-punch. Basically we cannot win against him with just kicks. We need to land 2 punches without getting hit.
