Judas gained the trust of the apostles, but in the end, betrays Jesus. The Camerlengo's actions mirror those of Judas. The backbone of this structure is the antagonist, who is developed following the Judas archetype. This is the basic plot structure that Brown will use in his subsequent novels. He recruits an assassin and gains the trust of Langdon and others, only to eventually betray them. The Camerlengo is angry with the church and their newfound tolerance of science, and therefore resurrects the Illuminati threat in order to unite the Catholic church against this common threat. For this reason, he is balanced well by Sophie, who transforms his intellectual abilities into survival skills that are applicable to real life In Dan Brown's first Robert Langdon novel, Angels and Demons, CamerlengoVentresca is a quintessential Judas, and this presents the basic structure that Brown will go on to use in his subsequent novels. He would rather think about codes and symbols than figure out how to escape the Louvre under the eyes of policemen. Although he is seen as a sex symbol in the academic world, Langdon is clumsy and inept with guns and weapons and lacks resolve when it comes to planning and executing action. In the novel's many moments of uncertainty, Langdon's presence is consistently reassuring. This trustworthiness makes him stand out in a narrative in which the author casts doubt on the motivations of every major character except Langdon and Sophie. Langdon is trustworthy, as is Sophie, his female counterpart and love interest. Langdon, the novel's protagonist, anchors the story.
