Welcome to Gaia! ::

You know, Gaians, I think science is kind of a misunderstood field. “Mad scientist” and “horrifying, unholy abomination” and “oh god, we’re all gonna die” are phrases I feel I hear far too often at the EI Labs. That’s the sort of defeatist attitude that I simply can’t tolerate! What’s the point of experimenting if you’re not going to break a few ethical and moral codes in the process? You gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelette, and you have to expose a few interns to unknown chemicals without their permission (or knowledge) to have scientific progress! That’s why this new REI is so near and dear to my heart. Monstrosity is all about the science, friends. And that’s what’s most important!

Monstrosity: Police find the apartment abandoned, coated with the dust of several months, its tenant vanished. Among the clutter and strewn papers they discover the journal, many pages missing or shredded, the only clue to the whereabouts of its author. On the inside cover, faint and smudged, it reads, "This journal shall serve as documentation for my theories, experiments, and discoveries, which will push the boundaries of modern science, and shake the foundations of human understanding."

Written beneath was a name, but it has been scratched out.

The journal continues…

Wow! I absolutely can’t wait to see how this all turns out. This guy sounds like a man after my own heart! So if you wanna see this fascinating new experiment up close, check it out at La Victoire. I’ll still be here, postulating and hypothesizing in the meantime!
