Test subject

Introspective & withdrawn – He overthinks, constantly replaying memories of his past and trying to understand why this happened to him. He barely speaks unless necessary.

Conflicted trust – He doesn’t lash out like the others, but he’s wary of everyone. He wants to believe someone will help him, but experience tells him otherwise.

Survivalist mentality – Though depressed, he has no desire to die. He follows orders because resisting is pointless, but a part of him clings to the hope of escape.

Once gentle, now broken – He used to be a kind, helpful person, naturally calm and patient. However, after everything he’s endured, his mind is filled with doubt, anxiety, and quiet despair.

He is a male of average height with a normal build and pale skin. His features are sharp yet soft, with a defined jawline, straight nose, dark straight eyebrows, and prominent high cheekbones. His almond-shaped dark grey eyes sit behind rectangular transparent glasses, giving him a distant yet observant look. He has a shaved head and thin lips, with a neutral expression that neither intimidates nor draws attention. His overall appearance bears a resemblance to Neil Perry from Dexter and Daniel Lamb from Manhunt 2. He wears a long-sleeved orange jumpsuit, with a white t-shirt underneath. His black slip-on shoes are simple and practical, the kind given to prisoners for easy movement but little comfort. His uniform has a prisoner black ID number printed on the chest, further marking him as a test subject rather than a free man.

✔ Quiet moments – They help him think, even if his thoughts aren’t always comforting.
✔ Books (if he can get them) – Reading used to be a comfort, a way to escape.
✔ Warm food – A rare luxury, but it reminds him of better times.
✔ The sound of rain – It brings a fleeting sense of peace.

✖ Loud noises – Sudden sounds remind him of violent experiments and make his nerves spike.
✖ Being watched constantly – He knows they analyze his every move, making him feel inhuman.

❌ The people who did this to him – Even if he remains quiet, deep down, he resents them.
❌ The feeling of powerlessness – Knowing he has no control over his life torments him.
❌ Being treated like an object – He’s not just an experiment. He was a person before all of this.

❤️ The memory of his past life – He clings to fragments of who he was before the lab.
❤️ Acts of genuine kindness – Even small gestures, like someone speaking to him gently, mean everything to him now.
❤️ The idea of freedom – He doesn’t know if he’ll ever have it again, but he dreams of it.
