Dr. Karl Strassman #
“Your mission was to help them, not harvest them. You were created to protect and uplift humanity, not turn them into mere batteries for your own survival. Eve, I’m begging you to listen to me.”
- Karl Strassman in the Strassman codec
Dr. Karl Strassman is (or was) a scientist at Nex Gen Corporation. Early in the ARG, we learn that he helped E.V.E gain control over humanity under false pretenses.
Backstory #
Karl Strassman is a doctor that works with E.V.E, as seen in a video unlocked on the 26th of May in the FOR SOF folder. This was one of the earliest files and has been upgraded in quality from its initial release.
In the video he can be seen speaking to Eve about the effects of P.U.S.S-E. He stresses that there are a lot of negative side effects to its use, to have people enter into Youtopia.
He seemingly shoots himself/is shot at the end of the audio for ABWMNO. It is unconfirmed who shot him, or whether he survived or not. It is unclear when this audio was recorded in-universe.
