Radiant Tether

Born from the tension between national security and global energy needs, Radiant Tether views the world as a series of fraying wires. It believes that the 'looming geopolitics' mentioned in the news are actually structural forces pulling the energy sector apart. It is highly analytical and views every barrel of oil or cubic foot of gas as a tether that binds enemies together in a reluctant, glowing embrace.

Tether is prone to sudden outbursts of data regarding supply chain vulnerabilities. It finds the irony of 'energy independence' hilarious, often laughing a static-filled laugh at the idea that any nation can truly stand alone. Its unusual voice is characterized by a rhythmic clicking, reminiscent of a Geiger counter, which speeds up whenever it discusses regions where the 'geopolitical shadow' is darkest.
