Jane Romero
Introducing our newest survivor, the influential talk show host Jane Romero.
Jane Romero was the daughter of a famous actress. Her parents separated when she was still a baby, mainly since her mother was away often. Jane was raised by her father, a struggling visual artist. She grew up torn between resenting her mother’s absence and admiring her presence on screen.
As a teenager, Jane secretly wished to emulate her mother’s talent. She would direct and perform in plays, audition for TV commercials and help her father at his studio. During her senior year, she entered a national oratory contest and won first prize. Her performance attracted the attention of a radio-station that contacted her for an interview. During the live show, her natural charm and repartee impressed the staff, who offered her a part-time job at the station.
After graduating college, she quit her job at the station to work for a trendy variety show. But her frank delivery and ad-libs were not appreciated by the show’s executives
Four months later, she received a phone call from a producer who had seen reruns of the variety show. He was looking for a co-host to spark up the failing show, Quick Talk.
Live television meant long hours, a low salary, and no stability, but it also offered a platform to broadcast her views. She disputed the crude inflammatory tone of Quick Talk and pushed for a relatable coverage of personal issues. Her honest delivery resonated with her audience and within weeks, the show’s viewership was steadily growing.
After two years, she launched a full-hour segment called The Jane Romero Show, which was broadcast nationally and covered tabooed topics, including her personal struggle with abandonment. Her show broke records and her initials J.R. became synonymous with products ranging from beauty creams to fashion accessories.
But Jane needed more; she wanted others to follow in her footsteps. She published a memoir that covered her childhood with an absent mother. Her book was an instant best seller but was reviewed harshly. Jane took this criticism to heart, since despite her success, a voice in the back of her mind was starting to doubt her achievements.
Her success also generated an increasingly demanding schedule and a growing pressure to entertain constantly. During a particularly tense week, she canned an episode and instead launched a two-hour-long special on divorce. When she learned that her mother had agreed to star in her show, her stress level peaked.
The interview proved to be catastrophic. After the show, Jane was driving to her father’s house in New Jersey. She turned on a freeway along the coast to avoid major congestion and popped some pain killers to numb the throbbing pain in her temples, which had been nagging her all day. Black ice covered the highway, which was packed with cars on their way back home. Night fell. A darkness began to blur the corners of her vision and turned the headlights into swirls of red. Jane blinked to sharpen their outlines, but each time she closed her eyes, her eyelids became heavier and slower, until they remained shut, for a moment too long.
The following morning, authorities were fishing out Jane’s car from the water. Despite leading a meticulous search for weeks, they were unable to retrieve her body.
Creating our new Survivor Jane Romero was an exciting and an emotional experience for our team. We hope you will enjoy this new character and that she will better your experience of Dead by Daylight.
See you in the fog.
