Georgiy Kain

Pathologic 2=

Georgiy Kain (Георгий Каин) is the head of the Kain family and the town's judge.

Description
"A judge, philosopher and thinker, but above all, a Smith, a Sculptor. Following Simon’s death, he’s become the main embodiment of the Kain idea, the builder and creator: the Crucible is his crucible. This is why we see him in his workshop, engaged in quite literal sculpting; this is why he’s dressed like an architect. He has the large hands of someone who works with stone and clay. This is, of course, symbolic: as a rock can be turned into a statue by chiseling away the unnecessary, so can a human be turned into a superhuman."

Georgiy Kain (Георгий Каин) is the head of the Kain family by the start of the first day. He is currently the oldest member of the family.

Description
He has an unsettled and nervous mind—a choleric temperament. He is quick thinking, and voices only the decisively-planned end result. A harsh and authoritative man that is unforgiving of errors, and who requires complete subordination. He views his brother as both a powerful ally and beloved kin. He refers to others paternalistically, but with respect.

Georgiy, being "slightly unhinged", devotes almost all of his time to occult sciences and theories. He is considered to be a necromancer and sorcerer.

Portrait Quotes
"A potent mind to say the least. Encyclopedically educated, well versed in Mathematics and Physics, has appreciable background in Astronomy. With all that, his chosen field of study is decidedly occult. And it is impossible to disregard how successful he is at that. However awkward it may appear at a first glance, the quotidian and the numinous often complement each other very well."

- Yulia Lyuricheva's take on him

"Georgiy is no successor to Simon. Semblance in appearance doesn't necessarily imply internal likeness. Kain is too deranged to be a good ruler. Were he, say, to rule our country, he would have turned it into some kind of theocracy."

- Alexander Saburov's take on him
