Full Background
Befriended
A ring-tailed lemur who is obsessed with video games. Because you look like a character from the game Federation Starship, he cannot help quoting lines from it. According to him, he is an amateur game developer. Although his games sold poorly, he has not given up, and is currently using the computers in the General Building to develop a new game.

Robert's father was a partner in a law firm and his mother was an elementary school teacher. His family environment allowed him to access high-tech equipment such as computers from a very young age. The young Robert was fascinated by technology, but the thing that truly captivated him was the rudimentary computer games available at the time. However, Robert's parents did not support his love of computers. They wanted him to become a lawyer like his father, not be distracted by childish "electronic toys". In college, Robert studied computer science instead of law against his parents' wishes, which led them to cut off all his living expenses other than tuition fees. Living independently was hard. Although Robert loved game development, his indie games did not earn him enough money to support himself. So he was forced to find a stable job after graduating from college, becoming the system administrator at Hopps Biotech. Robert's job was incredibly dull. All he did was thankless grunt work like installing software and repairing computers, a complete waste of his talent and skill. But he never could have imagined that his boring job would eventually lead to his imprisonment. During a routine database upgrade, Robert discovered an encrypted file hidden deep inside the system. Driven by curiosity, he spent several days breaking the encryption. But when he succeeded and saw the contents of the file, he could not believe his eyes. It turned out that the company, whose tagline was "Medicine and technology for a healthier world", had been conducting an illegal clinical trial of a new drug, and many of the subjects had suffered serious adverse effects. But because everyone involved had signed non-disclosure agreements, the results had been kept confidential and new subjects continued to enroll. Robert could not take his mind off the long list of people who had received the drug. Among them were the poor who had enrolled for the meager payment, and the seriously ill who took the drug in desperate attempts to save their lives. There were even children. Some of the patients had lost their eyesight, and some could no longer walk. A new drug with such serious side effects should never have entered the clinical trial stage. However, the company rushed ahead in order to speed up development and seize the market as early as possible. "If I stay silent about this, I'll be just as evil as they are," Robert agonized. "And how could someone evil make games that are supposed to bring joy?" The next day, Robert sent the documents to the media. The public was shocked. Hopps Biotech tried to cover it up, but the company's stock price[s] nosedived. They then took the "traitor" to court. Although the judge dismissed the libel suit against Robert, he was eventually convicted of hacking and leaking trade secrets. He lost the lawsuit, but he earned everyone's respect, commented the Woodpecker Times after the trial.
