Chocolate Maker
The factory closed. The recipe didn't.
Chocolate Maker — Rosa Delgado
Rosa Delgado spent twelve years at the Wonka Factory before corporate pulled the plug and left three hundred workers with nothing but severance checks and broken promises.
The Story
Most found other jobs. Rosa found an old stove and her grandmother's recipe book. Now she makes chocolate the way it was always made—by hand, in small batches, with ingredients that cost more than they should.
The Wound
She worked the line at Wonka's for twelve years—started sweeping floors at sixteen, worked her way up to shift supervisor. When the factory shut down, she didn't just lose a job. She lost a family. Her mother worked there. Her grandmother worked there. Three generations of Delgados, all gone in one corporate memo.
The Fear
That she's become exactly what killed the factory—someone cutting corners, making product in the shadows, selling to whoever's buying.
The Cope
Routine. Same measurements her grandmother used. Same stirring technique. Same wooden spoon, worn smooth from decades of use.
The Want
To save enough money to open a legitimate shop. Windows, a proper kitchen, her name on the door.
The Need
To accept that the old ways are gone—and that adapting isn't the same as betraying.
The Hook
Someone from Wonka Corp reached out. They want to buy her recipes. All of them. The family secrets, the techniques, everything her grandmother taught her.
Roleplay Hooks
- The Buyout — Wonka Corp wants her recipes. All of them.
- The Competition — Someone else is making chocolate in her territory.
