Physical description
Estimated height: 1.83 m. Medium build with broad shoulders. Thick, short blond hair; blue eyes. Long face, broad forehead, defined jaw, and wrinkles around the eyes. Clean-shaven. A broad, open smile.
Education and training
Psychotronic training at Saint Daniels. Doctorate in Philosophy of Religion from Columbia University.
Career
His career has combined university teaching with the education of young psychotronics. He has taught at Columbia and spent years cultivating the trust of the families funding Saint Daniels. His educational experience and the sponsors’ backing brought him to the school’s directorship.
Character and interests
He projects a warm, approachable image. He is particularly interested in relics and ritual objects, which he studies through his knowledge of religion.
Capabilities
He possesses psychometry: by touching an object, he can perceive impressions of events in its past. His preparation combines academic knowledge of religious traditions with experience in training and guiding people with psychotronic abilities.
Intelligence value
He provides privileged access to his former students. Saint Daniels alumni occupy every level of power and espionage; many retain a relationship of personal trust with Wycliffe. This closeness makes him a valuable asset for securing introductions, facilitating contacts, and reaching figures who are usually inaccessible.
Exploitable vulnerabilities
He frequents brothels and keeps these visits secret. Evidence of his conduct could be used to blackmail him, given the damage disclosure would do to his reputation as an educator and his position at Saint Daniels.
