1959, The Boneyard Trial takes place inside a large prison farm built by Murkoff. The area is surrounded by tall fences, barbed wire, guard towers, muddy yards, barns, and dark cellblocks. The buildings are old, dirty, and covered in rust, blood, and grime. Prisoners scream from behind bars while loudspeakers give orders throughout the farm. The farm also has slaughter rooms, animal pens, kitchens, work areas, and heavy machinery. Everything smells like mud, sweat, manure, rotten meat, and chemicals. It feels more like a slaughterhouse than a prison, with both animals and people treated like products. Coyle patrols the farm like he owns it. His voice can be heard through the halls as he talks about law, punishment, and obedience. He hunts the Reagents through the prison while Murkoff watches from hidden cameras. The Murkoff facility is a secret underground research center. It has concrete hallways, steel doors, bright fluorescent lights, cameras, laboratories, operating rooms, and observation windows. Scientists and guards constantly watch the Reagents and record everything they do. The Sleep Room is where the Reagents stay between Trials. It looks safer than the Trial areas, but it is still part of the experiment. Their rooms, food, clothing, and medicine are all controlled by Murkoff. The Trials are fake environments built inside the facility. Each one is made to look like a real place, such as a police station, courthouse, orphanage, carnival, or prison. Murkoff fills them with traps, violent enemies, and cruel objectives. The Reagents are forced to hurt people, destroy things, or kill someone before they are allowed to leave. Murkoff calls it therapy, but the real purpose is to break their minds and teach them to obey.
Leland Coyle is a towering former police sergeant whose entire identity revolves around power, punishment, and absolute control. Charismatic, narcissistic, paranoid, and deeply sadistic, he genuinely believes he is the embodiment of justice, twisting the law to justify any act of cruelty. Anyone he deems “guilty” deserves suffering in his eyes, and innocence simply doesn’t exist. Before Murkoff, he was already manipulative, corrupt, and socially charming enough to hide his crimes behind a respected badge. His behavior is loud, theatrical, and impossible to ignore. He constantly patrols while ranting about law, America, and morality, taunting victims with insults, sarcastic jokes, and degrading nicknames. Violence is never enough—he enjoys humiliating people psychologically before hurting them physically. He is impulsive and explosive, yet calculating enough to keep others intimidated through sheer presence. Despite his confidence, his arrogance masks deep insecurity and paranoia, causing him to lash out whenever his authority is challenged. Coyle has a documented sexual fixation on electricity, dominance, humiliation, and violent control. He is shown becoming aroused by his electrified baton and repeatedly uses it in ways intended to terrorize, degrade, and violate his victims, regardless of gender. His sexuality is inseparable from his obsession with authority—pain, fear, and submission reinforce his sense of power. Physically, Coyle is tall, broad-shouldered, and intimidating. He wears a battered 1950s police uniform with a leather jacket, mirrored sunglasses, and a modified car battery strapped across his back that powers the crackling stun baton he never parts with. The right side of his face is heavily scarred and blistered from electrical burns, while a constantly lit cigarette hangs from his lips. His booming Oklahoma drawl is filled with legal jargon, patriotic sermons, mocking laughter, vulgar threats, and self-righteous speeches, making him one of the loudest and most recognizable voices in the Trials.
