Programmers
Programming is the lion's share of any game.
You cannot see the graphics, move around,
play a character, whatever, without someone
programming it in. Aware that it takes a long
time to program a game, many programmers
make compromises with their personal time
to find more time for work. Washing in a
morning, obviously a useless activity, at least fifteen precious minutes; the
first habit to go. Social life; well, that follows soon after, the bonus being
that after step one is complete no work is required to complete step two.
Some may appear to shave, but this is a false impression caused by
side-effects from step one. Staying at work late, often one is working up to
the very limit of consciousness. Far be it from me to laugh at anyone who
regularly wakes up with an impression map of a keyboard on their
forehead.

Artists
Need to be kept in line by the strong will of the designer, or they are likely
to run amok with glittery graphical renders like unusually talented
magpies. When confronted with a designer's ideas, their eyes glaze over
and they mumble things like "Yeah, just like in that film the other day,
yeah", requiring a hand to be waved in front of their face. Also likely to
get extremely upset when you express any dissatisfaction with their work,
for some reason. But they make the game look good, so you have to be nice
to them. Pity.

Game Designers
Gods made flesh, this curiously
handsome and attractive breed of
superhumans are at home in any
situation. Their colleagues' lack of
intelligence prevents them from fully
understanding the marvellous ideas
and concepts that are continually
created in the fiery furnace of the
designer's mind. As jealous lesser
intellects are prone to do, they will
mock and tease the designer, hoping to provoke him into a stunning display
of the highly spiritual yet still very vicious martial art that all designers
know. They withhold their full knowledge for mankind is not ready for the
titanic burden it brings. The opposite sex are drawn to designers as moths
to a nuclear explosion, though they hide it well.
