Adrian Rydin

"What’s the name of that big river in Egypt? Denial?"

- Adrian, encountering Blaze about her feelings towards Della Prince.

Adrian Rydin (pronounced ray-dan) is a correctional officer at San Hill.

Appearance
Adrian has pale skin, brown hair, and green eyes. He stands at 5ft 9 and is of an average build. His hair is cut into a tall, spiky style, and he has thick eyebrows.

Personality
Adrian is sycophantic and fawning towards his superiors, but treats the inmates as his own personal source of amusement and drama.

Season One
As a returning guard, Adrian states that he was away for such a long period of time due to injuries he sustained at the hands of an inmate, and also claims that he is the reason the greenhouse was shut down for so long. Upon his return, he is unimpressed to see that Sol has been covering for him, and quickly re-establishes himself at the desk by the warden's office.

Adrian and William McCaffrey run the San Hill game of Fantasy Inmate, and Adrian is quick to talk the newer guards into signing up.

Whether true, or simply bluster, Adrian claims to be able to make shots "go away", as mentioned to Sunny Phoenix. He spends the majority of his day watching the cameras, and reading inmate files to learn about them.

Season Two
With the departure of Odysseus and arrival of his replacement, Soren White, Adrian is considerably quieter and a little lost as to how far his rulebreaking and nonchalant attitude will be acceptable.
