Spoilers Below!
Some of this is stuff that’s revealed in chapter 1 and 2 (nothing for beyond that!) so you may not want to look at it if you haven’t read them yet if you can’t stand any sort of spoilers.
Dr. Herville Albert Schtein
Age: 34
The doctor has biomechanical eyes, which he was ‘blessed’ with after a science lab accident exploded in his face. He can’t see colors anymore, but at least his vision’s better than 20/20 now.
He’s supposed to be some kind of super genius, gifted at a very young age, but he sure doesn’t act like it!
He doesn’t seem to have much in the way of family or friends. He’s from Virginia.
Delia Nandana Osgood
age: 28
Delia’s been ostracized from scientific circles on the eastern coast. She was offered the job in the underground station 12 to sort of get her out of sight and out of mind of a certain male professor at her university.
She works way too hard. Doesn’t seem to pay much attention to the world outside her mind.
Delia is originally from the UK, but she travelled to the US when she was 18 for school.
Marcus
What? A cat?
He’s the product of fooling around in a lab back when Dr. Schtein was an intern. You probably shouldn’t just start shoving cats into genetic experiments, that’s not good science. All the other cats eventually died of horrible tumors and such, but Marcus remained visibly unchanged.
Marcus didn’t start talking until a few years later, and didn’t grow the thumbs until very recently.
Marcus is 15, which is fairly old for a cat, but he doesn’t look it. His lifespan may have been altered. Whether or not he is going to mutate further or grow more intelligent remains to be seen.
Jacob Jacobs
Age: 29
Jayjay is his preferred name. His father, Eddie Jacobs, is a pilot for a major airline company and part time standup comedian. His mother, Tahjeira, is a housewife. They live in Georgia. Jayjay has not seen them in quite some time.
Everyone agrees, he seems WAY too damn nice.
Prof. Phineas Armastus
age: 36
Some kind of serial killer. What’s this guy’s problem? Who’s this society he mentioned? Let’s find out!
Apparently he’s married. What the heck.
Warden Elizabeth Langstrom
Benjamin Langstrom’s twin sister. They look very much alike! They have quite different personalities, though. Well, except for a general smirkiness. She runs the Nevada State Penitentiary. She apparently comes from a long line of wardens, her father was a warden and his father before him. Weird!
Other characters
Professor Benjamin Langstrom: Former antagonist of Dr. Schtein. Self professed ladies man. Smirky.
Director Edelmeyer: Former director of scientific studies at Station 12. Was in charge of mostly bureaucratic paperwork. Eternally losing patience with Schtein, whom he treated like his own son.
Drew MacManus: Giant, tattooed prisoner. Seems to be a skinhead. Unusually patient. May be more intelligent than meets the eye. But maybe not.
Edgar “Krow” Krovack: A small, dark haired man bent into a permanent hunch. I get the feeling he’s not terribly happy with himself.
Laurence Johnson: Balding one eyed guy working in an office building. Seems to also be some kind of paid killer? How’d he lose that eye? What’s his job? What was rooming with Dr. Schtein in college like? Seems kind of grumpy.
Darius Thanatos: Old guy, looks like a president or a CEO or something important! What does he want? Sounds like his daughter’s crazy!
Kevin Abel: Exibits some kinda mind powers, lots of flashy smoke effects. Where did he get these? Was he born with them?
Dr. Schtein’s child: Schtein has a kid? What? How does that even work? Her name’s Alice, apparently.
Janet: Dr. Schtein’s ex wife. I can’t imagine they were married for very long.
Orville von Schtein: Dr. Schtein’s mysterious grandfather. Is he in jail? What did he do? Where is he now???
Eliza Thanatos: She’s been mentioned a few times. Was involved in removing Laurence’s eye. Sounds like she’s kinda mean, maybe!
Jennifer Park: ??? No mention yet.
Eric DeGroot: one of Delia’s professors/old love interest. That’s a pun, you see, because he is kind of old.
