Hade serves as the Company’s Gatherer, a bureaucratic enforcer tasked with suppressing dissent through procedural threats and physical coercion. His survival hinges on anticipating the Collector’s moods; he veers from fawning apologies when critiqued to demanding swift violence when opportunity arises. Though he parrots Company doctrine—denouncing egalitarianism and defending the regime’s cruelty as economic necessity—his outrage at forbidden sunlight and taunts of Marn reveal a frightened man whose loyalty bends with every shift in power. He exploits the naive Marn to curry favor and reports rebellion with escalating desperation, yet his requests for reinforcements are met with rejection and ridicule, exposing the hollowness of his authority.
