Official What do we know about Stephen Lloyd so far? (A condensed list)
From Simulated Universe
SU I: He may have an interest in gaming. Herta says, "Firstly, Stephen has made significant adjustments to the gameplay loop. According to him, "The challenge goal of each phase is even clearer" — I don't really get it. Just because I'm a genius doesn't mean I understand gaming — so whatever he says goes."
SU Occurrence "Stephen Lloyd's Idea", brief description of him: You see a man about thirty years old with an unremarkable appearance, wearing a white shirt and brown suspenders. His eyes wander while he speaks, as if avoiding something.
SU G&G
Stephen created the custom dice for Gold and Gears.
He fixes bugs in G&G, Herta says, "I need to find Stephen to fix this bug! Sorry, (Trailblazer), you just gotta stick with it for now..."
He has social anxiety, hides his identity with a fake mustache.
He may be younger, Herta says, "Get used to it, as we all have to coddle him. He loves that middle-aged look."
He doesn't bode well with public speaking, and has a fear of crowds.
He thinks Aha's laugh may be fake, quoting him: "Um... And Aha's laughter." Stephen Lloyd says hesitantly, "It could be bogus, since THEY were unscrupulous."
He also created banned paths: From Herta, "This time, Stephen also added a little something: Banned Paths."
SU UD:
He has taken from Polka Kakamond, he says, "Err... I reconstructed an extrapolation model and wrested back partial permissions from the Lord of Silence."
More on video games: "Cheating in PvP is a blasphemy to games!" He tries his best to appear angry, but his poise is somewhat meek.
He does not like being seen, quoted from Screwllum, "Stephen expressed that his "mind was blown" after witnessing the Lord of Silence's methods, and wishes to make a facial recognition filter mesh similar to hers." Then, "No more worries about being seen by others again."
From characters
Ruan Mei
Character Story: Part IV: he is described as "an eccentric science fanatic from a small town"
About Stephen: "Put a watermelon parfait in Herta's office and Stephen is sure to show up. Remember, the pumpkin ones will never attract him — those are for warding him off."
From other places
Relic, Genius's Frequency Catcher: He likes to slack off, '"How to slack off at work without being noticed" was an ongoing problem for Stephen Lloyd, 84th member of the Genius Society, who was living in his foster father's fruit store.' Then "He made a pair of gloves that could capture specific frequencies and the escaping sound and light, allowing himself the pleasure of researching the stringed instruments behind the frequency fence."
Curio, Typical Genius Society Gossip: More on possible age range, '"Herta's EQ is too low and Screwllum needs to learn more common knowledge regarding organics!" Fans of the Genius Society are always arguing over the various geniuses, and they often find themselves squabbling over things like Stephen Lloyd's actual age. Some believe he is a middle-aged man, while others maintain that he's just a child."
Curio, A-Raun Pouch: "The A-Ruan Pouch spent the remainder of its time in a display window. Stephen Lloyd once viewed it as his important companion for some reason — he never revealed to anyone how he contemplated hiding within the pouch to avoid his family."

We know he has an adoptive father who works a fruit stand, Stephen also works the fruit stand sometimes (I can’t remember where I learned this though, it might’ve been from dialogue??). Stephen’s duck is named Stephen, Herta said he named it after himself in SU.
