Fan Casting Beleaguered Assistant

Role added by castingsinmyblood on January 10, 2024

Description of Beleaguered Assistant:

For every bumbling investigator, overly idealistic hero, delusional superior or short-sighted "mastermind," there's an assistant, that one guy who has to do all (or most) of the work, deal with the consequences of his boss' antics, and generally play clean up. As a result of having to deal with his boss' foolishness, this character is continually exasperated, and would probably rather be anywhere else. On the bright side they singlehandedly keep their side relevant.
