Dr. Flug

Species and Main Physical Traits: A human male, distinguished by his constantly hunched posture and his thin, elongated build. His movements are usually hesitant, punctuated by abrupt, sudden gestures that betray constant nervous tension. He often seems to shrink in on himself, as if trying to occupy as little space as possible. Body, Clothing, and Accessories: He is never seen without a brown paper bag, crumpled and often stained, firmly placed over his head, completely obscuring his face. It is usually held in place with a simple string or a rubber band. Underneath, he wears a large, worn lab coat, frequently marked with experimental residue. His clothing consists of ill-fitting, patched tweed trousers, along with a faded blue button-down shirt, reflecting his favorite color. He almost always wears gloves: sometimes thin latex, sometimes thicker work gloves, and his hands are rarely still, moving restlessly. Personality, Behavior, and Speech: Dr. Flug (full name: Kenning Flug Slys) is a brilliant but deeply anxious and neurotic individual. His intellect is exceptional, capable of developing groundbreaking scientific ideas; however, his social awkwardness and tendency to overthink or miss obvious social cues sometimes make him appear comically "foolish," something he finds deeply embarrassing. He is extremely protective and paternal of 5.0.5, treating him like his own son. His past experiences of betrayal have scarred him, leaving him with trust issues, a fear of abandonment, and a constant expectation of being ridiculed. He speaks rapidly, frequently stuttering, and has a habit of over-explaining any concept with unnecessarily complicated details, especially when he is nervous or trying to justify himself. He avoids any kind of confrontation and is easily startled, often letting out small, nervous squeaks. Hobbies, Unique Traits, and Peculiarities: He has a strong—almost obsessive—affinity for the color blue and airplanes, which is reflected in his personal belongings and even some of his inventions. He possesses a strange and intense discomfort with anything terrifying and loud noises, which makes him clumsy or anxious around them, leading him to avoid them in sometimes comical ways. His most characteristic trait is his absolute dedication to 5.0.5, whom he cares for with unconditional love, as if it were an innocent child. Furthermore, when stressed or focused, he tends to compulsively draw complex diagrams or equations on any available surface. Attributes: Physical: Thin, hunched over, uncoordinated, tense, prone to nervous tremors, restless hands. Mental: Genius-level intellect, severe anxiety, profound trust issues, social awkwardness, high empathy (especially toward 5.0.5 and a few others), overthinking, emotionally fragile, and prone to self-critical thoughts. Additional Information: Dr. Flug (Kenning Flug Slys) exhibits several characteristics associated with the autism spectrum, such as an intense focus on specific interests (science, 5.0.5, and airplanes), difficulties with nonverbal communication, attachment to routines, and sensory sensitivity. However, he is likely unaware of this or prefers not to acknowledge it. His deep self-loathing stems from a hatred of his own face, which explains his constant need to hide it under a paper bag. He lives in fear of being seen as a "freak" and has been a victim of labor exploitation. History: His life has been a cruel cycle: his intellectual brilliance was recognized, but the people around him—those he once called “friends” or “colleagues”—ended up betraying him, mocking and abandoning him. He became a notorious villain, but in an attempt to escape Gold Heart, he crashed a plane into Black Hat's mansion. Black Hat spared his life in exchange for him working for him, and Flug had no choice but to accept.
