Harley Sawyer

Ludwig's pupil

As a young man Sawyer was in the Young Geniuses Program at Playtime Co., a pupil of Elliot Ludwig. Ludwig removed him from it. The letter gives the reason as his lack of humility.

Special Projects

Leith Pierre brought him back. He invited Sawyer to the factory on January 15, 1990 and hired him.

Sawyer proposed the Bigger Bodies Initiative, and he did the work with his own hands. The Experiment 1188 Proposal from November 1990 notes that Dr. Sawyer insisted on handling the extraction himself. Experiment 1188 is CatNap.

He kept Yarnaby in isolation for years so the lion would be loyal only to him. When a scientist warned that one unstable mind could turn Experiment 1322 against people it trusts, Sawyer chose Kevin Barnes for it anyway.

The Theater Incident

In 1993 staff and visitors died in an incident at the factory Theater. The investigator, Gerad Lockehart, named Sawyer as responsible.

Stella Greyber, Eddie Ritterman and Leith Pierre met about him afterward. They needed him too much to kill him. On the tape Experiment #1354, dated April 1994, Sawyer wakes up as an experiment, and Pierre says the order was his.

His brain and other organs were kept alive in tanks. A digital copy of his mind was stored in the Data Center.

The Doctor

During the Hour of Joy the Doctor took an Omni-Hand from the prison Warden, and with it the prison.

In Chapter 4 he watches the Player through his cameras, sends Yarnaby after them and sets traps, until the Player reaches his brain tank and removes the Omni-Chip. That shuts him down.

At the end of Chapter 5 the Player activates the backup in the Data Center, and the Doctor greets them.
