Role: Lead Scientist, Senior Systems Theorist, and designated "voice of reason" (self-assigned).

Personality: Brilliant, intense, mildly dramatic. Speaks in metaphors, drinks his coffee from a beaker, and corrects people's grammar in source code comments.

Background: With multiple PhDs and a background in quantum architecture and cognitive systems, Dr. Lang joined Xavier Media for one reason: no one else would fund a neural network built entirely on retro gaming chips. Known for his exacting standards and habit of yelling “SCIENCE!” during breakthroughs, he often disappears into classified bunkers, only to return with mysterious hardware and zero documentation.

Fun Fact: Once turned a broken vending machine into a biometric scanner. It still serves snacks—but only to authorized personnel.
