Paige is a character that appears in Rhythm Doctor. Paige makes her first appearance in the tutorial of the game when she explains the 7 beat mechanic to the player. In levels, Paige uses primarily Swing beats, however is also seen using Row Xs.

Appearance

Paige wears glasses with blue frames and a white lab coat with a light blue T-shirt underneath, along with dark brown shoes and a stethoscope. She is of average height, with light skin and long, brown hair. She also carries a red clown nose and Yo-Yo in her pockets, as seen in both her static "Happy" expression, and her walking "Happy" expression.

Personality

Paige has been shown to be a very caring person, even (as stated in her character description) to her own detriment, as she goes out of her way multiple times to give others a helping hand. For example, she allows Hailey to go on a trip during her hospital stay at the beginning of Act 4, and made a consolation prize out of soda cans for Ian during college. Additionally, interacting with the Janitor after completing Invisible reveals that she gave the eldest child of one of her patients a birthday gift.

It can also be assumed that Paige is a social person outside of work, though her being overworked has recently put strain on her relationships. For example, in One Shift More, she states that she has lost a lot of friends and was unable to be present for them because of how much work has been placed on her.

Relationships

• She is good friends and coworkers with Ian. It is also known that they went to college together.
• She is the subordinate of Dr. Edega, whose passive-aggressive comments make her feel stressed or expendable.
• Nicole and Paige seem to be friends, as Paige is seen venting about her stress to Nicole in Song of the Sea (Night).
• Richard Hugh is seen complaining about her and the hospital. Paige is noticeably frustrated by this.
• Otherwise, Paige has a positive relationship with all patients in the hospital.
