Max Guevara: Difference between revisions

 

From the beginning, the X5's training was harsh and rigorous, sometimes downright brutal. In addition, they were subjected to powerful psychological conditioning, as well as cruel medical experiments. As Max would later say, they didn't think to escape because, after all, they didn't know there was anything else to escape ''to''.

Throughout their lives, the X5's were plagued by a design flaw: a neurological disorder that caused random and violent seizures. Max once witnessed a fellow X5 who suffered a seizure during a drill and was taken away, never to be seen again. To temporarily suppress the seizures, they took Tryptophan, a neurotransmitter that replaced the serotonin that their brains were unable to produce.
