General[]

Brian Ratzik is a producer. He is old and superficial. All he cares about is money and he doesn't care about love at all.

Character's Backstory[]

He had a past relationship with Addison and it developed into a big scandal, due to the fact that he was married at the time. He blamed everything on Addison, which caused the latter to change her major in Hollywood U from Movie Star to Fashionista. Since then, the two have been on bad terms. This fact also becomes the reason for your dislike towards him. In Addison's date "Worldwind Romance", he is dating Jenni Whitman until you and Addison show Jenni proof that he is cheating on her.

In the quest, "The Elf Himself", it is revealed that he did not have a happy childhood and that he cannot remember his happiest Christmas. He grew up poor with his parents constantly fighting around him. When you and Santa dig deeper into his subconscious, you two find that during his happiest Christmas, he played with his neighbor's old Border Collie while his parents were busy arguing in the house.

Personality and Characteristics[]

Brian is a perverted, sly, narcissistic and manipulative businessman. At the end of A Chance at Love, he flat-out admits that to him, only money is real; everything else is an illusion, love included. He is also very sure of himself, feeling that he can get you and most people to do his bidding, but becomes a sore loser when he doesn't get his way.

Appearance[]

Brian Ratzik has sunglasses and wrinkles, along with spiked gray-white hair. He is seen wearing a grey suit with a red scarf.

Character Relationships[]

Addison Sinclair[]

When Addison was just starting her Movie Star career, she was set to be featured in one of Brian's films. During production, they had an affair. The fallout from that relationship caused Addison to switch majors to Fashionista. She dislikes him for taking advantage of her, and would prefer to cut all contact with him. However, he seems persistent in trying to get her attention again-- one of the options for breaking Lisa's contract was to make Addison meet with him (or to pay 25 Diamonds to keep that from happening).

Lisa Valentine[]

Lisa had a contract with him for her first movie, something that would fit her original kid friendly image. You manage to get Lisa out of the contract, so she decides to enroll in Hollywood U and joins your entourage.

Your Character[]

You are forced to meet him in the beginning of your schooling and career at Hollywood U, because you need to end his contract with Lisa Valentine. During an earlier quest, you met him at the party where he is quite impressed that you know Aria Sheridan, who he claims is a good contact, which improved his opinion of you. You and Brian do not like each other and only work together due to circumstances. He does show admiration for you during the wedding quest for Zoe Rodriguez when you were able to cause all things to work for the reality television show they were doing.

In "The Elf Himself", you have the choice to give him a puppy or anti-aging cream (although Santa will not approve) for Christmas.

Jenni Whitman[]

You run into him with Jenni Whitman on Addison's third date, "Worldwind Romance". However, Addison later sees him with another woman who looks like her, and reveals that to Jenni. Jenni becomes very angry, and Brian becomes angry at you in turn.

Trivia[]

  • Brian Ratzik is the only character with grey hair in the game.
