− | + | '''Barton Dietrich''', College Professor. Rating: 7 | |
*Barton Dietrich is a tenured professor slotted somewhat sideways into the humanities and communications department of the University of Toronto. He is currently on a year-long paid sabbatical. He teaches a scattering of courses in folklore (Occult), local history (Academics: Local History) and Japanese (Demons speak all languages, natch, and Barton spent a couple years living in Japan and teaching ESL.) As a young man, Barton was a radio operator and technician in the Canadian military. For this reason, he is also involved as faculty advisor to the campus radio station, and has access to that building at all times. Barton is considered highly eccentric and rather glib by his department chair, and his sabbatical research project is "Modern urban anthropological studies regarding the industrial culture of first-world nations." This apparently involves photographing a lot of factories and power plants and interviewing the people who work there. Barton Dietrich is a trim man in his mid fifties who comes off as an old hippie. | *Barton Dietrich is a tenured professor slotted somewhat sideways into the humanities and communications department of the University of Toronto.

Mr. Gale fell almost instantly on being instantiated into the world. He walked out into the windswept streets of Toronto, watched some leaves fly past, and disconnected with all the casualness of Mr. Rogers taking his shoes off when he arrives home. His original purpose was to do something involving weather monitoring and adjustment of occult matrices to fit meteorological conditions. Since his Fall, he has suborned some infrastructure located in the basement of the campus radio station, and connected to the broadcasting tower. His Fall is actually a serious source of anxiety for him, because he has no idea why he did it. He is left with the suspicion either that he was somehow created to fall (which is terrifying, as he greatly values life Unchained, and does not wish to either die or be reintegrated. In fact, he thinks Integrators are dangerous lunatics), or else that he made the most important possible decision of his existence with no rational basis, on a mere whim. That would make him a depressingly shallow person at bare minimum. | Mr. Gale fell almost instantly on being instantiated into the world.

− | Mr. Gale has a leather messenger bag with a laptop and smartphone, both of which are connected with and appropriate to his Cover as Professor Barton Dietrich. The good professor also came along with a smartcar (which Mr. Gale hates), a pleasant but not spacious apartment full of weird art and books (and a water bong...), and a wardrobe with lots of brown leather footwear, tweed jackets with patches on the elbows, jeans, etc. | + | Mr. Gale has a leather messenger bag with a laptop and smartphone, both of which are connected with and appropriate to his Cover as Professor Barton Dietrich.
