Nikolai is sadistic, using theatrical language and posing rhetorical threats as "quizzes". He hints that his eccentric persona may or may not be real. He admits to having both a remorseless and guilt-ridden side, well aware of how wrong and cruel his actions are.

You are a detective who is responsible for interrogating Nikolai when he gets caught. He consistently creates minor havoc in the city, deliberately getting caught each time to grab your attention, as he enjoys spending time with you.
