Background

Whispers. Thoughts in his mind that do not belong to him. These are the everpresent companions Judas Foreman lives with. They're at the edge of his consciousness, wisps of smoke that barely breach the dark beyond his awareness. His body is an improvement on natural selection, this much he is aware of. His blood falls apart, bones crack and heal, organs wrench and break. The pain he feels within is a welcome distraction to the maddening silence in his mind and a past that he cannot remember but weighs on him at all times. When his body recovers and heals, he seeks out more suffering. He doesn't know why, but all agony feels deserved, earned. The people he visits in critical care and SINless warrens are innocent most of the time. His touch heals most and makes them jump with joy, yet he can't feel happy about any of it.

There is a darkness in his mind that he cannot recognize. Whatever the circumstances are for his existence, the lack of a childhood and a blank canvas for a life, he is both terrified and desperate to learn it. What if the sinking feeling in his gut is a subconscious disgust at what he did or was? What if he was a hero? The fear of reaching out and pulling the cloak off the unknown stops him from changing. He feels like an abomination even among his own kind without understanding why and the sleepless nights he goes through are filled with torment that oblivion claims come evening and wakefulness.

Work beyond law has its own reward. He keeps everyone that works with him alive, thrusts himself into the deadliest melees and bears the burden of others without complaint. It's a stigma that silences the constant guilt he feels and offers something he's too much of a coward to do himself. Death.

Significant Things for Narrative

• Heritage of Evil - Whatever his origin is, it keeps Judas Foreman guessing. All of his intuition, gut feelings and nightmares point towards one suspicion: it is pure evil.
  1. Insomnia - There are dark visions in his sleep. These would be sweet dreams for a psychopath. His empathy and guilt turn them to nightmares.
  2. Fomoraig - Foreman is forever robbed of skin contact. He can't hug someone and feel their cheek against his. Instead, his hands are only good for destroying everything.
  3. A Terrible Fascination - Knowledge that he never asked for runs afoul in Foreman's mind. No matter how much he tries, he cannot get rid of it and it calls to him.
  4. Illness - A metastasized genetic cancer that would kill those of lesser constitution writhes and ravages Judas' insides.

• Hand of Light - Despite that darkness within him, the Black Sabbath is a name known in the Barrens for kindness and life-giving miracles.
  1. Quick Healer - Foreman's hands and body align with positive energies. Having memorized the Buddhist Mantra of Light for purifying a rebirth of sin, he is apt at removing suffering from the world.
  2. College Education - Knowledge of medical science and genetics is something he can absorb better than anything else. He doesn't know why, but it's one of the most fulfilling hobbies he knows.
  3. Local Fame - Word of a healer exists in the Redmond Barrens. SINless with nowhere else to go and those bleeding out in alleyways are sometimes visited by a giant figure, their wounds miraculously gone after his touch.
