Patient 726

Patient 726
Patient 726, (Aka The Rook) is a massive hunchback brute, who looks like patient 1000 but smaller. He moves relatively slow, but can kill the player in one to two hits. The Rook can also destroy any barrier, and is hostile to everything. He is largely responsible for most of the other patients' deaths. The Rook was once a body builder named Paul Oversmand, he was involved in a car accident that killed his family, he started having schizophrenic hallucinations of his dead family, so he was taken to the All Hope Labs psychiatric ward, were he was involved with the DD87 experiment, which made him into The Rook. The Rook is required for several puzzles, for example, using him to smash down locked doors to progress further into the lab. Patient 726 is first encountered in Ward B, smashing a patient to death, after which he notices Daniell and pursues him. Patient 726 is easy to stun or knock out, but it only lasts for a few seconds. Each time he is knocked out or hits Daniell, he gets 10% faster. This is accumulative. He can also charge on rare occasions, insta-killing anything in his way, but moves in a straight line.
