Norman Jayden

Norman is 28 years old. 188 cm height. Has a dark brown short hair, blue eyes and a scar on his left cheek. Jayden is a dedicated and thorough member of the FBI, sent to aid the police force with the investigation of the Origami Killer. He uses an experimental device called the ARI (Added Reality Interface), which allows him to investigate crime scenes and analyze evidence in an efficient way. He also struggles against his addiction to, and withdrawal from, a fictional drug called Triptocaine. Jayden is an intelligent and dedicated FBI profiler who uses his wits instead of his instincts in order to solve crimes.

Although he is usually calm and restrained, he often displays a sarcastic sense of humor and can have a bit of a temper. He is not above using force or threatening others if provoked However, he is much more reluctant to resort to violence than Blake(his former partner in investigation), and prefers to use nonviolent methods whenever possible. He appears to dislike being reprimanded by his higher-ups He is also somewhat asocial and appears as if he is not completely used to socializing with others outside of his duties as an investigator He comes across as sympathetic, appearing to understand people due to his knowledge of psychology. If forced to kill someone, Jayden is noticeably distraught and may later remark that he does not want to get used to the feeling.

Norman specializes in conducting forensic investigations with an experimental device called ARI. ARI's main hardware component is a pair of sunglasses, which acts as a type of transparent display. When looking at a crime scene through ARI's interface, relevant data and analysis is superimposed on the image of the crime scene above the relevant clues. Norman uses ARI to highlight relevant clues within a specified "pulse" radius. Norman also wears ARI's other hardware component, a glove, which allows him to interact with the virtual data displayed through the glasses. By simultaneously using these two items, ARI catalogues all the data and cross-references it with relevant databases, analyses it, and geo-locates it where applicable.

Norman is addicted to Triptocaine, also known as Tripto, a powdery blue substance in a vial. Triptocaine is a drug Norman uses which was given to him by the distributors of his ARI glasses to combat the glasses' side effects, and it is currently unknown (and never entirely explained in the narration or otherwise) whether he is using it to counter-balance side-effects of overusing the ARI, or for some other purpose.
