Biography:
Man (often referred to as "White Jacket Man" due to his signature attire) is a central character in the Alternate Reality Game (ARG) Other, conceived by Jane McGonigal and designed by Ian Bogost. Little is explicitly revealed about his background within the ARG's narrative. He functions primarily as a guide and facilitator for players, communicating cryptic messages and posing riddles that propel the story forward.
He is portrayed as a detached and somewhat enigmatic figure, possessing knowledge of the mysterious "Other" and its connection to the global sleep crisis that forms the ARG's central plot. Man's motivations are never entirely clear; whether he seeks to contain the Other, harness its power, or simply understand it is left ambiguous, adding to the game's overall sense of mystery. He seems to operate outside of conventional organizations and established power structures.
Through coded emails, websites, and physical interactions with players, Man manipulates events and directs participants down specific paths, pushing them to uncover the truth behind the game's central mysteries. His identity remains largely undefined, contributing to his aura of authority and his role as a key architect of the unfolding narrative within Other.
