Albert

"Albert came to Portia a few years ago when his friend Gust proposed setting up a construction business. As a partner in A&G Construction, Albert is always coming and going to projects all over Portia and the surrounding city-states. In his spare time, he likes to go on dates with ladies and look for love."

Personal summary
Albert is an extroverted ladies' man with some notoriety before the player even arrives but, on the inside, he has some insecurities. He is also a very competent businessman who is very involved in the expansion of Portia's infrastructure.

Albert was not born in Portia, but moved after Gust proposed setting up a construction business. Thus, the A&G Construction (Albert & Gust Construction) company was born, located right next to the Commerce Guild. Albert specializes in the construction and management aspects of the company. He is adept at liaising with others in the industry and is often Mayor Gale's go-to man to coordinate collaborative projects.

Albert likes to try his luck with women and is always asking one person or another to go out with him. His interests include his best friend's sister, Ginger, the doctor's assistant Phyllis, and the restaurant waitress Sonia.

Physical appearance
He has fair skin and blue eyes. He has very dark brown/black hair trimmed and parted on the left with a loose strand hanging near his parting. He chooses to keep clean-shaven in keeping with his slick businessman persona with the exception of his sideburns which he keeps thick but well groomed. He wears a white dress shirt with light brown trousers with a matching belt. His smart gray pointed tipped shoes match his waistcoat adorned with silver buttons perfectly which he uses to keep fastened at all times. He finishes his look with a scarlet neck-chief that proudly completes his ensemble.

Related characters
