    It's not Mr Big or the people in the DAD immersive hologram, but the latter is a fun guess.

    His name was Thomas Schiller

    Your persistence has paid off, @Birdleson , it is indeed Thomas Schiller from DAD - the new identity being given to Zao in the Havana clinic. Here's what we know about him:


    1. A lot of men are pretending to be me, and they all sound very different.

    Self-explanatory - we hear the same phrases about Thomas in multiple voices and languages.

    2. I would like to open a numbered bank account.

    ... is what he says in German at least twice.

    3. I had a privileged childhood.

    "My father was a sergeant (or surgeon?). We lived in Hampshire. I have fond memories of the countryside"

    4. There's a lot of pseudo-science around here, and I'm part of it.

    Learning whilst asleep, DNA replacement therapy... and pretty much the whole film, really.

    5. I am rather like what David Lynch might call a tulpa...

    An alter ego created in the mind. A significant theory in Tibetan mysticism, recently featured heavily in Twin Peaks: The Return.

    6. ... but thanks to Bond and that girl, I'm unlikely to be used.

    The clinic is trashed.

    7. He didn't forget to knock when he interrupted me.

    Bond knocks Zao's neural frame thing, then turns it off.

    8. I'm the opposite of what every good child should be.

    Heard but not seen.

    Oh wow. I was clueless the entire time. Nice job to the both of you.

    I thought that was just a random recording. I had no idea that it was used to brainwash Zao into his new identity

    I have a few ideas, but I'm not incredibly excited about any of them.

    Wait ... so a nonspeaking character means it could be other than a human being?
    If so, I did not realize that at all.

    Can you confirm if the I in clue 5 is the character speaking, or Birdleson?

    Clever choice of character. I knew it had something to do with a computer but couldn't put it together right away.

    DAMMIT!

    I had figured out the U clue from looking at the played character list, and that it involved the image being on a screen. Wracking my brains for the last couple of days and still couldn't get there. Kicking myself bigtime.

    Great character and round, well done both.

    Alright, let's do it.

    EON Character :

    1) I am the exact opposite of @pachazo.
    2) Only seven are in use.
    3) Austrian temptations.
    4) Plans are being set into motion.
    5) There is a dress code for this type of event.
    6) Diamonds may be forever, but they are not ideal for this situation in particular.
    7) Bond and I are definitely in agreement.
    8) Not enjoying it is no excuse for quitting!
    9) We tried and failed.
    10) My American counterpart can be seen later in the film.

    11) You're getting farther and farther away from me.
    12) Someone is getting quite irritated now.

    Incorrect List
    Auctioneer (OP)
    Casino Dealer (FYEO)
    Countess Lisl von Schlaf
    Korean Man (DAD)
    Mr. Solo
    Mr. White

    Nope. Let's try some more clues to get things moving, shall we?
