I need to study you under a microscope. Tell me more about that old man

Well, what can I say... Something about his personality catches me, and I have the greatest interest in his life before the betrayal of the Empress. How he worked, what he did, what he thought about. Somewhere I saw the chronology of the Dishonored universe, it was indicated that before the events of the game he worked as a Royal Spymaster for about 7 years, and now it is very interesting for me to think about his life during this period of time.

It would seem that what can be interesting in a bald, unpleasant dude? Well, even the fact that he was able to charm Lady Boyle in some way, and he also showed sincere tender feelings for her. Also, I was upset that there was so little of him in the game, since he could not even reveal himself either as a character or as a person completely. As if we were just told "this guy is bad" and we should listen and go chop everyone (or not). Therefore, I have a great interest in this character, he is not fully revealed to me (like most characters, in fact), plus I really like his design in the art and in the painting of Anton Sokolov (I even painted it), in the game he was deliberately made more unpleasant than in the concept, so that we even feel a physical rejection.

here is my replica of Anton Sokolov' painting:

So, yeah, he is a very interesting character to me. I believe that in the game, either for the sake of the plot, or just for fun, his mental abilities were slightly nerfed. I can't wrap my head around how a man with intelligence, who has earned his place as a Royal Spymaster, could even come up with such an idiotic plan to exterminate the poverty? Plus, he knew that he had paranoid thoughts and an obsession in order, didn't he? Then why hadn't he taken all this into account when he thought of becoming the Lord Regent, and in such an unstable time?

In general, I'm not happy with the way his image was played out in the game, and I demand more content with him!!

make my man popular, pleeeasee(

An interesting detail in the beginning of the Knife of Dunwall is that in the cutscene, you can actually see the Royal Spymaster stop the guards from checking on the Empress and Co. Please also note High Overseer Campbell going to join him and Sokolov making a run for it.

If I explain, then you will see. I am not at fault. My Poverty Eradication Plan was meant to bring prosperity to the city. To rid us those scoundrels who waste their days in filth and drink without homes or occupations other than to beg for the coin for which the rest of us toil. And it was a simple plan: bring the diseased rats from the Pandyssian continent and let them take care of the poor for us.

The plan worked perfectly! At first. But the rats, oh it was as if they sought to undo me. They hid from the catchers and bred at a sickening rate. Soon it didn’t matter, rich, poor, all were falling sick. And then people began to ask questions. The Empress assigned me to investigate whether the rats have been imported by a foreign power. I knew the truth would come out eventually, so there was no other way than to be rid of her and take power myself. She had to die, you see. She. Had. To. Die.

Here’s Bastard’s Burrows’ confession in HD without any audiograph filters or echoey effects. I dunno why, but I feel like this would make for a great copypasta or something.

I don’t why Burrows ever thought it would be a good idea to bring rats into the city, but I guess the concept of invasive species wasn’t widespread yet.
