The Doctor

Herman Carter was once a brilliant neurologist with a cold, clinical mind and a fascination with human psychology. Recruited by a covert government program known as Léry’s Memorial Institute, he was tasked with developing interrogation techniques to extract information from prisoners using psychological manipulation and electroshock therapy.

But Carter’s curiosity and lack of empathy spiraled into obsession. Stripped of oversight deep within the classified Treatment Wing, he conducted brutal, unauthorized experiments. His methods devolved into torture, using electricity to shatter minds and induce madness. Instead of seeking truth, he sought control—turning subjects into broken, trembling wrecks.

Eventually, Herman disappeared without a trace, along with dozens of inmates and staff. All that remained were the echoes of screams and scorched walls in the treatment rooms. Whatever remnants of his humanity were left, they were swallowed when The Entity plucked him from the ruins and reshaped him into something far more monstrous.

Now, as The Doctor, he inflicts madness on Survivors, distorting their senses, inducing hallucinations, and punishing their minds. For him, pain is not a side effect—it is the purpose.
