Irving Bailiff is the senior-most Macrodata Refiner at Lumon Industries.

He has a serious demeanor and takes the Kier philosophy very seriously. Irving is known to abide by Lumon rules strictly and often cautions his colleagues when they are in violation of them.

At work he has a reputation for falling asleep at his desk. He has terrifying dreams about his cubicle being overtaken by thick black goo.

Irving develops strong romantic feelings towards Burt, the head of Optics and Design. They begin to have intense but somewhat innocent meetings in various parts of the SVR’D Floor.
