Breadwinner



The Splicer model "Breadwinner" is dressed like a Chicago mobster in a double-breasted pinstriped suit and a fedora. He came to Rapture to get rich. He has convinced himself that Rapture's collapse is a "small problem" in his quest to get rich. The corpse of Paparazzi and Daniel Wales are Breadwinner models. He appears in Arcadia and Olympus Heights in BioShock, and in the sequel he appears in Atlantic Express, Pauper's Drop, Siren Alley, Dionysus Park, and Fontaine Futuristics. The Breadwinner model is voiced by Adam Sietz.
