> Izzaak Tremeri is a good man.

> As requested, I am supplying a summary of my findings so far on the case
> of Dr Isaac Barr, previously head of the Kensington Project.
> Subject Background and Personal History:
> Born in 2008, Dr Barr seems to have been the recipient of what was then
> still experimental and highly illegal in vitro genetic enhancement. When
> pressed, his parents claimed they wished their child to have an edge in
> the difficult employment market that was developing at that time. As
> with many subjects of these early experiments the enhancement process
> was imperfect, granting many of the advantages of modern enhanced
> humans, but with certain mutations, which in Dr Barr's case seem to have
> taken the form of some severe mental problems.
> <see ref
> 'medlogs/Westbury_General/emergencyward/Catherine_Barr/03.04.2017'>
> Dr Barr came to our attention after he designed the Cybernetic Interface
> Node (CIN), while still in University. This invention allowed the long
> suffering Kensington Project to begin making real progress, and led to
> our approaching Dr Barr with an offer of Lab Assistant on the Project.
> It is somewhat surprising that no note has been made previously
> concerning his rapid rise to project manger. At this time the project
> was still receiving funds from a number of companies, our own among
> them, and Dr Barr was granted near total autonomy. I attach files of the
> project budget which I advice Accountancy look over in detail as I
> suspect Dr Barr may well have embezzled a substantial amount during this
> period.
> The growing success of the project finally led to our company acquiring
> the project in its entirety to ensure our exclusive control of the
> team's findings. The troubles with Dr Barr began when we attempted to
> place the project under the control of another more experienced
> scientist <see ref 'personnel/specialists/cybernetics/Dr_Calsoon'>. Dr
> Barr's mental deficiency had led to him grow overly attached to the
> project, to the point that he believed it belonged to him in some
> fashion. The resulting destruction seems to have been caused by the
> uncontrolled activation of the KID System, something we can assume only
> Dr Barr was capable of at this point, as the surviving security footage
> indicates that he had already killed the rest of the senior research
> staff and many technicians.
> Dr Barr disappears from our records at this time, forcing me to track
> him to United North America, where he spent some eight weeks in the New
> York Zero Zone. While here he appears to have undergone some sort
> biological modification in an underground lab. The exact nature of this
> modification is uncertain, though reports that he lost his arm in the
> destruction of the project give some indication as to his purpose.
> During his stay Jinsei began its now infamous invasion of the Zero Zone.
> It seems the staff working on him were killed when a large section of
> the facility was collapsed in the fighting. How Dr Barr survived and
> then escaped is unknown at this time, though the absence of any body
> matching his description or genetic makeup indicates that he did
> survive.
> Dr Barr's current location is unknown at this time. Our current lead
> indicates that a ticket was bought using money from an account we know
> to have been his, and so I am heading to Hong Kong, the tickets
> destination, to investigate further. It seems likely that he has somehow
> gained knowledge of our attempts to recreate the project in our labs
> there, and as such I recommend a step in security at those facilities.
> Subject's Personality and Motivation:
> Dr Barr appears suffer from borderline Sociopathy, and Obsessive
> tendencies. He seems to have no sense of, or at least of interest in,
> the moral or legal rights of others, and will use, harm and kill others
> without hesitation. He is extremely intelligent and charismatic,
> allowing him to manipulate others to serve his wishes with ease.
> At this time Dr Barr's prime motivation seems to be ensuring that no-one
> else is in a position to work on or utilise the Kensington Experiment,
> due to his possessive belief that it belongs to him. In a larger sense
> Dr Barr seems driven by his creative urges. He is known to have created
> a number of inventions while working on KIDS, most of which had little
> or nothing to do with the project. It is possible that we can use this
> fact to help in tracking him down, as many of his inventions needed
> unusual components.
> Some Quotations:
> "You would not understand."
> It. Is. MINE!
> The Subjects known Tactics and Abilities
> Dr Barr is know to be capable of building a wide range of items. At this
> time we have no evidence of any ability with manufacturing weapons,
> though this may well change. When pressed the Dr has usually shown a
> tendency to think his way out of a problem. His actions before
> activating the KIDS indicates that he is capable of acts of extreme
> violence. He can be expected to be either very cautious or wildly
> impulsive, often both in quick succession, making him unpredictable.
> His lack of direct combat experience leads me to believe that he will
> try to avoid getting into combat himself, but will rely on others,
> either hired or coerced into helping him, to act for him. In the
> unlikely event that he is forced into a combat situation we can expect
> him to be capable of basic use of most weapons or unarmed combat, as
> well as a broad knowledge of human anatomy that could prove dangerous. I
> recommend that any team sent to retrieve him be heavily armoured, but
> only lightly armed. They should be warned to anticipate any improvised
> weapons he might try to employ.
> Appearance:
> Dr Barr is 6'3" and Caucasian. He has blue eyes, sometimes described as
> grey, and black hair that he is usually observed wearing at shoulder
> length. He is deemed to be attractive and of indeterminate age,
> appearing somewhere between early 20s and late 30s, depending on posture
> and clothing. He has several jacks in the base of his skull that are
> normally hidden by his hair and an array of sub-dermal circuitry that
> will glow faintly when over taxed by excessive charge. At this time he
> may have only one arm or may have replaced it with a cloned limb or a
> cybernetic replacement.
> A final note here. Dr Barr's appearance may well not fit this
> description anymore, as the above mentioned biological modification may
> have altered his body a face substantially. Additionally Dr Barr was
> known to dye his hair a range of colours, further complicating matters.
> Closing Notes:
> Although genetically enhanced, Dr Barr does not fit the standard
> 'package' for an enhanced human. He lacks the enhanced strength and
> speed that is typically displayed, and additionally seems to possess a
> substantially greater boost in mental processes, likely leading to his
> mental instabilities. He is likely immune to many diseases, but not most
> biological weapons. His life span is uncertain.
>
>
> I will report again when I arrive in Hong Kong and have made contact
> with our people there.
You know, aside from Ran, I don't think we've had a psychotic character in
the game before, and one that was a PC to boot, so this should be a treat.
