Exercise 3.2, Personas: Graham Bachelder

Persona


Scenario

Joyce is walking through downtown as she usually does, visiting different shops and saying hello to everyone she meets. She grabs lunch at Peak City Grill, one of her favorites. Her waiter, John, greets her as usual, and notices she’s recently upgraded from her flip phone. “I know you’re an expert on the town’s history, but I bet even you could learn something new about the city from that new app the Historical Society made!” he challenges. “I’ll take you up on that, but lunch is on you if I don’t!” Joyce retorts. They laugh and John agrees to the bet.

She downloads the app and tests it out. As she sits in the restaurant, she realizes it’s one of the locations for the scavenger hunt. The clue mentions a fire that burned downtown, and she remembers one happened in 1905. This fire was common knowledge for anyone growing up in the city. “This’ll be easy, she thinks. But there is no key! As she looks through the different time periods, she learns that two fires burned downtown, one in 1905 and another in 1911. Since she’s a regular, lunch is still on the house. She thanks John and continues down the street, learning more about each building as she greets the rest of her friends.
