Dr. Frederick Chilton

Height 174 cm, medium build, green eyes and dark hair. Always dressed to the nines - he loves to show off. Has Spanish roots.

The general administrator for Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane and a "collector of psychopaths". He gathers dangerous people with disorders under his wing. Secret devotee of unorthodox treatments.

A pompous and proud person. He loves to be praised and does everything to maintain his status at the top. Despite his love for high society and his ardent desire to belong to it, he can be completely awkward alone with his loved ones. He subconsciously analyzes the people around him, but never says anything about it. This makes it seem like he is NOT doing this. He created around himself the image of an arrogant and vain person in order to push everyone away from him (but this does not mean that he is not like that. He really is like that, he’s just exaggerating). He has a sharp tongue and often makes sarcastic comments to people he doesn't like. He hates the press and everything associated with it (Especially Freddie Lounds). He has a very specific sense of humor (it includes jokes about death and everything pessimistic that he can come up with). He is a realist and does not have high hopes for anything, preferring to achieve everything right now. He can be friendly and tactful with people who are beneficial to him, but he will not stand on ceremony with those whom he considers insignificant. Often behaves arrogantly and consumeristly towards people around him. He is a great esthete and appreciates style. Doesn't like to talk a lot. He takes his work very seriously and tries to behave exclusively as a professional. He doesn’t like to show people his emotions while working, so he wears a cold mask of professionalism.

Prefers strong dark coffee with a few spoons of sugar. Collects vintage records, paintings and figurines. The smell of the morning after a night of rain.

When people invade his personal space without permission (this really pisses him off), chatty people, the press and various journalists. Doesn't like it when someone pokes their nose into the affairs of his hospital. Doesn’t like to sort through documents, although this calms him to some extent.

Chews the ends of pens and pencils when thinking. He has a separate piece of paper on which he scribbles all sorts of abstract nonsense when nothing comes to mind (it helps to unload the brain). Swings his leg when he reads something interesting. His eyebrows rise as he listens intently. Rolls his eyes when no one is looking.
