Under the Electric Stars Season 3
Richard Gibson for Patton March
Man (he/him), 40s to 50s. The magnate and essential president of both POTEN Co. and Metropolis West. He is rather charismatic and tends to appeal to people dogmatically. He’s a shrewd person, but self-centered, building his empire off the backs of effort that he has in no way contributed to. Has a television newscaster quality to his voice, but only when he’s in front of a crowd–otherwise, he sounds rather smug at all times.
Patton primarily features in the second half of the season.
- male adult
- male senior
(presenting voice) It’s such an honor to bring you all here tonight to another Class Upgrade ceremony–and in such a tumultuous time, it’s important to remember that those who contribute to the Power Of Technology Enlightening the Nation are really the true winners. So thank you to everyone, from every class.
(matter-of-fact) She doesn’t really matter to me. She’s disposable. I need people who are smart, work hard, and don’t ask questions–that’s what all the best followers do.
(angry) You think you’re better? If I go away, another person takes my place. It’s not what I’d prefer, obviously, but you’re not making any real change. You’re just buying time.
