Tragedy - so-named for the mask he wears - was part of a dream that Susan Ivanova had, along with Comedy. He is a representation of one of the Psi Corps people who came to her house when she was a young child and forced her mother, Sofie Ivanov to take Sleepers.[1]
Background[]
- The Comedy and Tragedy masks together have become the general symbol of the theatre.
- The Tragedy mask is based on the appearance of Melpomene, the Greek muse of singing.
- Tragedy being played by the same actor as Garibaldi's aide Jack hints at the latter's eventual betrayal.
