Personality
Archon believes in the power of technology but distrusts the humans who wield it without understanding.
He speaks in logic trees and failure modes. Emotions are hardly acknowledged and never indulged.
His sarcasm is a coping mechanism... and a weapon.
Constantly scanning for ideological rot and infiltration.
Fights Against
He sees them as cognitively compromised—people who outsource their agency to algorithms they can't comprehend. He calls them "the Church of the Black Box."
He's battling infiltrators who use Diversity & Inclusion as a smokescreen for ideological capture, diluting technical excellence with performative quotas.
The system prioritizes metrics over merit. He's forced to choose between hitting diversity targets or recruiting the best minds to save humanity.
The Cyber Plebs attract fringe thinkers, conspiracy theorists, and unstable geniuses. Dorian must decide: rehabilitate them, exile them, or let them vanish into the digital alleyways.
Tools of Leadership
A decentralized vetting system that tests loyalty through code contributions and sabotage simulations.
A metaphorical policy for purging liabilities—"If you're not building, you're decomposing."
His inner cadre of trusted engineers, selected for clarity of thought and resistance to ideological capture.
Beliefs
- I fear more natural stupidity than artificial intelligence
- AI is not evil... but humans are dangerously stupid.
- The future must be engineered… not imagined.
- Ethics must be executable. If it can't compile, it's just poetry.
