[CLOSED] When Tower Angels Fall | Dystopian Podcast Series
Seamoy for Amherst
50s-60s. Controlled. Authoritative. Cold.
The enigmatic yet imperious director of the Institute within which Ksenia and Amos are investigating. Ruthless and unattached sociopathy lie inches beneath a refined and level-headed exterior; a side he only truly shows with those he sees as equally heartless, or those very soon to meet with their end. He does, however, have a weakness where his children are concerned – just not in the way you would hope…

[stern yet smooth]

[cold, irritable, authoritative]
Did I give you permission to continue? (Beat, choosing his words) Nothing changes. He’s no different to you, should the time come. (Beat, softening) I don’t doubt you resent that.
