Although generally my ratings on the Arkham staff are rigorous and focused on psychological aspects , in this case I seem forced to make an exception due to the complexity and multiplicity of the subject's mentality . Thus, my review will focus his recruitment.
Edmund Faust: 20 years have passed since we captured him and forced him to confess his crimes. He was held in one of the highest priority areas the organisation possessed at the time. An impregnable, maximum security room considered the best in the world.
Disbelief was our first reaction to his escape which took him less that half an hour, in the meantime, he found time to visit our technology department and cut off all power and surveillance systems. In other words: He took over all of Arkham at the age of 69.
Were it not for your swift intervention, the organization would have fallen apart, and worse still, what lies beneath the skin of Arkham would have come to light.
This is what I consider to be your greatest accomplishment, Mr. President: rather than eliminating a dangerous enemy, you turned him into one of our most valuable allies with just a little help from those tiny, precious red pills. You prolonged his vitality and life expectancy on an inhuman scale and activated his already extraordinary brainpower, providing him with an even bigger memory and a monstrous computational ability.
Obviously, it didn't cure his lustful depravity for everything female (especially underwear),nor his addiction to knowledge, This caused his mind to split into two: one which needs to continuously work, create, and imagine, and the other to unleash it's lewd actions. though any attempt to keep him captive has failed, you gave him the chance to challenge his mind thus creating his own prison which is inescapable.
you never cease to amaze me. |
