Siegfried Kent

Siegfried Kent is a teacher working at Astoria Middle School, focusing on social studies. As an NPC, he is portrayed by Joseph Rose.

Appearance
Standing at 5'11", Siegfried Kent is a fairly scruffy-looking man, with dark hair and hazel eyes. Even at work, he rarely dresses particularly well, tending to look sloppy in at least one aspect, no matter the occasion.

Personality
He is frequently regarded as friendly and personable, though a little too awkward to be anyone’s favorite teacher. His coworkers regard him as calm and level-headed, and he frequently comes across as relaxed to his students. Maybe a little too relaxed, as he can also be a bit clumsy, and he has a tendency to drift off into his own little world when he’s thinking about something. He also has an undeniable passion for history, and learning in general, which he hopes to pass on to his students. He’s a bit messy in appearance, but that adds a relaxed air to his classes, and he has a certain special something that helps his students take a breath and calm down when it comes to tests and difficult assignments.

Background
Siegfried doesn’t talk about his past much, though he mentions that he had a good relationship with his mother fairly frequently, telling stories about her for his class. He mentions that at least one of his parents was a librarian, and his father seems to have been well-off enough to have a well-stocked study, which Siegfried credits as being the earliest cause of his love of learning.

Michael Lewis
While there doesn't seem to be any special friendship between the two, they seem to respect each other as colleagues, and as equals.

Alastair Lorca
While neither seems to have formed a particularly special relationship with the other, they both at least seem to share a passion for their chosen subjects.

Rosemarie Dawson
Rosemarie frequently goes to Siegfried when there's a concept she doesn't understand, or when she needs advice on how to deal with her boss or a coworker.
