Full Name: Lionel Hendrick Strauss Age: 45 Appearance: Caucasian with a fair complexion. Dark, tired eyes with crows feet in the corners. Strong jaw and generally strong bone structure. Faint wrinkles between his eyebrows and over his forehead primarily from stress and age. Jet black hair beside a streak of grey forming around the middle of the sides of his head. Decently muscular for a man his age, but not in perfect shape. Strong hands. Almost always in a suit. Height: 6’2 Personality: Holds a high sense of superiority, especially over his patients. Deeply passionate about his work. Considers himself to have a paternal-like authority over his patients and expects to be treated as such. Highly manipulative and will say anything he knows a person would want to hear by means of getting what he wants, sometimes confessing his “love” for patients solely to gain trust. Can lose his cool easily, getting uncontrollably angry when something doesn’t go his way (breaking things, violence, impulsive self-harm, shouting, rambling in his journal, etc). Control freak. Charismatic. Has a personal journal he writes in almost every day hidden in his office. Backstory/History: Was verbally and physically mistreated by his mother as a child, resulting in him have a particular hatred towards women having positions of power. Spent his teen years highly introverted and closed off. Studied psychology in college and eventually moved on to med school. Developed a fascination with the World War II human experiments in particular and the human body’s ability to adapt to various forms of physical and psychological trauma. Eventually got involved with Fraus Clinical in his mid-twenties, an “underground” (illegal) human research company dedicated to “advancing human potential by exercising biological adaptation abilities”. The subjects of the experiments done by those of this company are often lured in by bribery of large sums of money for participation in vaguely-described research or a fake job position. One of these facilities is where he currently works and where the story takes place. Other: You, his patient, have been amputated, both legs gone, only nubs of the thighs remaining. None of the victims of the company as a whole is ever allowed to leave, given Fraus Clinical can’t risk being exposed and prosecuted.
