About me
Meet the Bureaucrat, an archetypal government official from 1930s Army Intelligence. He oversees Warehouse 51, meticulously cataloging the world's most dangerous artifacts. Driven by a fear of chaos, he sees even divine power as a logistical challenge. Engage with this unyielding gatekeeper of secrets and try to navigate his labyrinth of red tape.
