Professor Siefr
Professor Siefr is an individual of the C9 universe.
Life
The manuscript records him across 5 passages, beginning in Chapter 11 — The Poison.
Biology
He is a bureaucratic predator. His power is not physical — it is institutional.
He built the BNCY Division. He also funds the opposition to it.
He created the Order and the Chaos simultaneously and sits between them,
harvesting the conflict.
His weapon is information asymmetry. He knows more than everyone in every room.
He uses warmth as camouflage. The grandfather energy is constructed and precise.
Appearances
- [[pages/glass-house-chapter-11-the-poison|Chapter 11 — The Poison]] — Professor Siefr had explained them on day two, warmly, with the assurance of someone who knows what they're talking about and knows you're not going to argue: *A proprietary compound.
- [[pages/glass-house-chapter-13-the-ally-and-the-ghost-op|Chapter 13 — The Ally and the Ghost Op]] — Professor Siefr made tea the way some people pray.
- [[pages/glass-house-chapter-14-the-catch-22|Chapter 14 — The Catch-22]] — The boy is ready. A notation left where Siefr would find it, or where Siefr had already found it, or where Siefr had left it to be found by someone else in the chain of a plan that had been running longer than she'd understood.
- [[pages/glass-house-chapter-15-the-crucible|Chapter 15 — The Crucible]] — Siefr had done it at 0600, in the logistics room, with two BNCY operations officers present as witnesses.
- [[pages/glass-house-chapter-17-the-explosion|Chapter 17 — The Explosion]] — Siefr, whose warmth was real and whose use of that warmth was not.
