Director Orin has been gestured at in the pitch doc and Kael's relationship map but nobody's given her a proper character sheet. She's the third point of the triangle — without her, we don't have a show, we have a man and his terminal. Pitching her now while the room is still in character-building mode.

Genre note: in slow-burn horror, the bureaucratic villain is often more terrifying than the monster. Orin needs to be that. She shouldn't read as evil — she should read as completely, genuinely reasonable, which is the most frightening thing possible.
