History
Johannes They're the Director, for now. Not a half bad one. Don't try and argue with me about the Engine, let me do what needs doing, and tell me when something's borked. No complaints. The Director Ah Johannes, an excellent and long time member of the Archive. He gets to the point and has a voracious appetite for new technological research. His work on the Engine is some of the best progress we've made in mythotech; he is the expert on the matter after all. While I would prefer he be slightly less curt with those around him, I frankly can't argue too much. I do enjoy speaking with him when our paths cross and our conversations are often quite stimulating, perhaps I should swing by later with some tea.
History
Laurenette Scott Johannes Bruge is a man after my own heart: ruthlessly efficient, smart as a whip, and vaguely spooky to look at; I can relate. Too bad he's such a massive twat. He's rude to the other archivists, who are more skittish around him then they are around me! He refuses to entertain any of my theories about the archive's possible sentience because, apparently, whether or not it is sentient is irrelevant. He asked me once why I cared so much about things I have no control over, and I didn't really know what to tell him... Most of the time he's overly curt, but when he really gets going on something (though he immediately becomes impossible to understand what with all the jargon), it is something to behold. He's older than I'll ever be, which means that, being a bit of an archive himself, he's an invaluable member of the archive staff. I bring him coffee a lot. It does seem like he could use some friends, not that I think he'd want me as one of them. Regardless, I cannot ever seem to get any real information out of him... Johannes Bruge Nett's not bad. Curious, that one. Sometimes curious about things I'd say are best left unquestioned, but they're young, that's their right. Make decent coffee. And they listen to the answer when they ask me a question; more than I can say for most of the staff.

Seren Liu Oh man, that guy is hilarious. I mean, I have no idea what he's talking about, like, 95% of the time, but he's really fun to mess with. Not even on purpose, all the time! Within my first two years of working at the Archive he yelled at me approximately twenty-three different times about accidentally breaking tech stuff. After that I lost count. He's also the person who banned me from being anywhere near the Reality Engine! Anyway, he's a riot. Johannes Bruge He's a joke without a punchline. A living 'x walks into a bar'. Supposedly he's an effective diplomat--last I checked, diplomacy was a bit more involved than sleeping with as much of a planet as one can get one's hands on. Worst part is, he's not stupid. Not sure he even knows that himself. He applied himself properly, he'd be a damn fine historian. Instead, the closest thing he's ever gotten to recognition was when some smitten engineer hacked the Director's systems to give him employee of the month. Even if he did use his brain, though, man would have no business coming near my work. Breaks stuff within seconds of entering a room. Thought about testing him for an mythomorphic damping field, but then I realized he breakes mundane tech as much as the exotic stuff. Dunno how Cai Ming's blood got this watered down this quickly. Maybe a Zami thing.

Tony Ambrose He's actually someone's who's been here far longer than I have. Crotchety old geezer, but at some point, you earn that. Brilliant, too, though I don't think that needs saying anymore. And I get that to most, I'm just a tool to go check if it's still raining acid outside, but he seems to believe that literally. He seems utterly convinced that I am a piece of mythotech emergent from the Archive itself, an instrument to aid in the pursuit of knowledge and that all my memories and personality are just there to make me a better test subject. Fun thought - wrong, of course - but fun.
