Titus Clydesdale
About the Job
Primary antagonist, Male, 40s–50s, Beckett’s father and powerful old-money patriarch. Appearance: Impeccably dressed, controlled, and intimidating, Titus embodies generational wealth and authority. Every detail is deliberate—tailored suits, measured movements, and a presence that commands silence. Personality: Titus is authoritarian, calculating, and emotionally detached, viewing family as an extension of legacy rather than a source of love. He uses wealth, intimidation, and conditional approval to maintain control, believing vulnerability is weakness. Beneath his control is a deep fear of losing power and reputation. Objective: Preserve the family’s image, wealth, and influence by forcing Beckett into a socially advantageous path. Character arc: Titus begins as an immovable force of control, enforcing rigid expectations on Beckett. As Beckett resists, Titus escalates his tactics, revealing the extent of his influence and cruelty. By the end, he is forced to confront the limits of his control, becoming the final obstacle Beckett must overcome to achieve independence.
