4 roles
(Main Protagonist). East-Asian - An introverted, submissive East-Asian sales associate who works at The Manager’s clothing shop. Due to his condition of being invisible/’colorless’, Aster is the constant target of mistreatment, bullying and harassment by his coworkers, neighbors and people in general. Despite being fully aware of the constant punishment he faces, Aster has become totally accustomed and complacent of being overlooked and treated harshly by others.
A charismatic coworker of Aster’s at The Manager’s clothing shop whose presence alone captures the admiration and envy of others in the room. She is happy with the status quo and believes maintaining the current social system is the smartest path to continued success. Although Gwen has a basic sense of morality, she chooses to overlook the system’s corruption to protect her own career and reputation.
Another coworker of Aster’s at The Manager’s clothing shop who is driven by a strong sense of social justice and leadership, constantly questioning the system’s unfairness and exploitative practices. Cateria is determined to bring change and takes active measures to fight for it. However, deep down inside, Cateria harbors jealousy and envy towards Gwen. Even though she sees herself as ‘righteous’, her grudge against Gwen’s success clouds her judgement, actions and most importantly her ideals.
The Manager of the clothing shop oversees his employees including Aster, Gwen and Cateria. Although he recognizes the system’s flaws and corruption, he has no interest in changing it. Instead, he justifies exploiting others to preserve the system, himself and the status quo. The Director is a meticulous perfectionist artiste who is filming a mockumentary about Aster and his ‘colorless’ status in society.
