Fictional biography
Patient no: 1-047481Name: Flameblast (formerly named: Explorer)
Symptoms: Patient suffered from emotional instability and violent tendencies. Abuse of subordinate was being reported and there are rumors of lynching and unauthorized experiments.
Case History: Patient was former scientist, assigned to be the leader of C3 during the Colossus War, now appointed to be the chief researcher in a classified project. Personality of patient was altered during the war that he even changed his name after several upgrades. Minor mental problems were reported after the prohibition of combination technology.
Dialysis: We believe the emotional problem is the after effects from the combination tech as the tech is still immature at the moment. The symptoms were further aggravated. However, as long as the patient is able to carry out his duty and provide valuable experimental result, we do not recommend any treatment as that may lower the productivity.
Follow Up: Keep monitoring the patient and report upon any circumstances.[5]
