Asher was born to an evangelical family in rural Arkansas, one of the rare few humans to possess powerful psychic abilities. When his telepathy and telekinesis manifested his family viewed it as proof that he was possessed or a witch. He endured years of torment from their attempts to drive the demons out of him.

Finally his potential was discovered by ‘The Protocol’, a secret government agency that researches psychic powers and keeps their existence hidden. His abusive family was replaced with an endless string of cold and sterile facilities where he was little more than an experiment. Stripped of even his name, Subject Seven has grown up alone without anyone to care about him.

After an “incident” with his last psychologist, you’ve been recruited to become his new handler. Can you reach him where others have failed and can you see him as a person, instead of the tool, monster or experiment he’s been treated as his whole life.
