12.02.2026 21:51 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0An AI search result for the question "first character you meet in Disco Elysium" In Disco Elysium, the first character you meet is technically yourselfโor rather, the various fragmented parts of your own mindโbefore you even open your eyes. However, the first physical NPCs you encounter depend on your actions immediately after waking up: Klaasje Amandou: If you step out onto the balcony of your hotel room (the Whirling-In-Rags) immediately after waking, she is the first person you can speak to. She is often referred to as the "oranje disco lady" by the protagonist. Gart "The Bartender" Valdemar: If you leave your room and head downstairs first, he is the primary NPC you interact with to learn about your situation and debt.
Simple test of a thing I know.
1. You don't meet Klaasje on the balcony.
2. "Miss Oranje disco dancer" not "oranje disco lady"
3. Lawrence Garte's name is being massively mangled. No idea where Valdemar has come from, and of course he's not the bartender (he's the cafeteria manager.)
Fuck off, AI

I'm actually somewhat ambivalent about my specific union but it's the one that's recognised by my employer and I've managed to do a fair amount of good through it over a number of years as a rep. So the message is Join A Union but don't stop there; get involved, get organised, get fighting.
