Rusty

*"The President of the DIKs. His full name is Russell Burgmeister, making him legacy of B&R. While some might say that he's using his name to his advantage, he doesn't act entitled... at least not that much."*

**Russell Burgmeister** (more commonly known as **Rusty**) is a student at Burgmeister & Royce, where he is the great-grandson of the university's co-founder.

Together with Tommy, he co-founded the Delta Iota Kappa fraternity, and serves as its inaugural President.

## Physical Appearance

Rusty is approximately twenty-one years old. He is of average height and has dark red hair with blue eyes. Two years ago, he was clean-shaven and dressed in a more casual version of the clothes that The Preps are known to wear. Since founding The DIKs, he took to sporting light facial stubble, unkempt hair and wears more relaxed clothing like tee-shirts and jeans in addition to his DIKs jacket.

## Relationships

### **DIKs**

#### **Tommy**

Tommy, the Vice President at the fraternity and Rusty are best friends dating back to before the fraternity was founded.

#### **Main Character**

Rusty has a good relationship with the DIK's newest recruit, the MC. When MC takes the initiative to lead the clean up of the DIK's mansion after the Tri-Alphas trashed it, Rusty starts trusting MC with much more personal information, such as the code to the vault in Rusty's room.

#### **Derek Bailey**

Rusty also has a good relationship with another new recruit, Derek Bailey. Rusty, who is Derek's maggot father is impressed at Derek's initiative to complete the Hell Week tasks as well as he can.

#### **Other DIKs**

The other DIKs seem to respect Rusty as their leader, and they seem comfortable with Rusty's relaxed leadership style.

### **Family**

Rusty's relationship with his family is so far unexplored.

### **HOTs**

Of all the DIK brothers, Rusty has the least developed relationship with the HOTs sorority. He seems to avoid these girls, possibly because of their hard-partying and slutty reputation. His relationship with HOTs President and fellow high society member Sage isn't developed much, but she didn't seem to take him too seriously before he and Tommy formed the fraternity.

### **Tri-Alphas**

Rusty's non-confrontational personality means that his relationship with their rivals the Tri-Alphas is unexplored.

### **Preps**

#### **Tybalt Burke**

During an interview for him to get into the Preps fraternity, Rusty (as everyone else does) does not like Tybalt, and they do not see eye-to-eye. Tybalt seems to respect Rusty only because of his name and high society status. After the interview, Rusty refers to Tybalt as a "f\*\*\*ing asshole".

### **Other characters**

#### **Micha**

Rusty is interested in Micha, even having sex with her at one point- but Micha then reveals that she got back together with her ex at the Dorm Room Party, crushing Rusty's hopes.

#### **Jill Royce**

Jill Royce, a fellow high society student (the "R" in B&R) went on a date with DIKs President Rusty Burgmeister (the "B" in B&R) sometime before current events, but the relationship did not work out because on their date, Rusty's friends appeared and he then apparently ignored her. If the player chooses the Jill path, then the MC reveals Jill to the DIKs, and Rusty becomes genuinely shocked and speechless that the MC is with her.
