Pretty comfortable saying that Syril Karn is one of the all-time great Star Wars characters, and this @jwhitbrook.bsky.social write-up is a good exploration of why

I low-key love how that Syril was the instigating force behind Cassian transforming from petty thief to actual rebel, and he never knew it. Syril caused Cassian to become the person he imagined him to be in the first place.
This is what made his character so uncomfortably relatable to me! A lifetime of seeking some sort of reward for my innate, if hyperactive sense of justice, but only receiving punishment. I'm lucky I was able to see the problem was the system all along before it was too late, unlike Syril.
