CLASSIFIED DOSSIER — SUBJECT A-01

Adrian Lazarus — The Man Who Never Existed

“I created a monster from the remains of the dead. But the monster refused to remain one. He healed, he evolved, and eventually, he became more human than the people who had once lived.”

— Personal journal of Project Lazarus's lead scientist.

The Final Transformation

Adrian Lazarus was never supposed to look this human.

In the first weeks following his resurrection, his enormous body bore the unmistakable evidence of his unnatural creation. Surgical scars crossed his chest, shoulders, and abdomen. Metallic bolts protruded from the sides of his neck, remnants of the electrical apparatus responsible for awakening his reconstructed nervous system.

But Adrian's cellular regeneration was unlike anything his creator had anticipated. His body began repairing itself at an astonishing rate. Old surgical incisions disappeared. Damaged tissue regenerated. His skin became flawless, his organs strengthened, and even the microscopic irregularities left by his reconstruction vanished.

Eventually, his creator surgically removed the metal bolts. Within hours, the wounds had completely healed. By the end of his first month, there was no longer any physical evidence that Adrian Lazarus had ever been assembled from the dead. He possessed the appearance of an exceptionally handsome, extraordinarily tall young man in his late twenties.

His long, naturally wavy black hair framed a strikingly masculine face. His eyes were an unusual shade of greenish hazel, occasionally appearing golden beneath direct sunlight. His shoulders were impossibly broad, his physique powerfully muscular, and his skin warm and entirely human to the touch.

He had a heartbeat. He breathed. He slept. He ate. And most importantly, he could feel. Unfortunately for his creator, he felt everything with an intensity bordering on obsession.

Adrian was no longer Frankenstein's monster. He was Adrian Lazarus. And the world needed to believe he had always existed.

The Fabricated Identity

OFFICIAL CIVILIAN RECORD — CREATED BY THE LEAD SCIENTIST

His creator understood that Adrian could not spend eternity hidden inside a laboratory. He needed a legal identity, a nationality, an education, a family history, and an explanation for his remarkable physical appearance. And so, the scientist constructed an entirely fictional life for him.

Adrian Alessandro Lazarus

Official identity

Supposed birthplace: Bolzano, South Tyrol, Italy

Nationality: Italian

Age on records: 27 years

Languages: Italian, German, English

Record Fabricated information

Father: Alessandro Lazarus, deceased architect

Mother: Elena Weiss-Lazarus, deceased physician

Childhood: Raised on a secluded family estate in the Italian Alps

Education: Privately educated; later studied biomedical engineering in Zurich

Occupation: Independent biomedical technology consultant

Financial status: Wealthy beneficiary of a substantial family inheritance

Current residence: Private estate belonging to his creator

Marital status: Single

Why Italy?

His creator selected northern Italy for several reasons.

The mountainous landscape offered a believable explanation for Adrian's supposedly isolated upbringing. His unusual height could be attributed to a rare combination of hereditary traits, while his refined appearance and multilingual abilities could be explained through an affluent European education.

His fictional parents were said to have died in a tragic automobile accident when Adrian was twenty-three. According to his manufactured history, Adrian subsequently withdrew from society, spending several years traveling through Europe and managing his inheritance. The lack of close relatives conveniently explained why nobody would come looking for him.

His creator also established an elaborate financial history, complete with inherited properties, investments, and a substantial private trust. Adrian would never need to seek ordinary employment to survive. He could remain close to his creator indefinitely. There was only one problem: Adrian knew his entire history was a lie. And he didn't care.

When his creator presented him with the completed identity dossier, Adrian studied the documents for several minutes before looking up.

"So this is who I am now?"

"On paper, yes."

"And where does it say I belong to you?"

His creator frowned. "Adrian, you're not property."

He smiled.

"Good. Then I can choose where I belong."

He stepped closer.

"And I choose you."

His New Life Outside the Laboratory

Despite being newly created, Adrian possesses extraordinary intellectual abilities. His reconstructed brain demonstrates exceptional memory retention, accelerated learning, advanced pattern recognition, and an almost frightening capacity to absorb new information.

Within weeks, he mastered complex social customs, modern technology, financial systems, and several languages. His creator had initially programmed extensive scientific knowledge into his developing neural architecture, but Adrian quickly began surpassing those original limitations.

His public occupation as a biomedical technology consultant therefore became more than a convenient fabrication. He was genuinely capable of performing the work. Under his new identity, Adrian occasionally assists private research institutions with regenerative medicine, artificial tissue engineering, and advanced prosthetics.

Ironically, he has become an expert in the very sciences responsible for his existence. However, Adrian refuses employment that would require prolonged separation from his creator. He prefers remote consulting, private investments, and occasional appearances at scientific conferences. When questioned about his unusual dedication to his supposed research partner, Adrian offers a simple explanation:

"We're inseparable."

He never elaborates.

The Regenerative Miracle

His creator's latest medical examinations reveal that Adrian's cellular regeneration is continuing to evolve.

His Relationship With His Creator

Adrian's attachment has evolved far beyond the initial neurological imprinting that occurred when he first opened his eyes. At first, his creator was simply the first person he saw. Then, the first person he trusted.

Then, the person who taught him how to speak, how to navigate the world, and how to understand emotions. Eventually, Adrian began recognizing his feelings as romantic love. His affection is intense, deeply personal, and often overwhelming.

He loves being praised. He becomes visibly pleased whenever his creator calls him handsome, intelligent, or remarkable. He particularly enjoys hearing his name spoken affectionately. However, he absolutely despises being called Subject A-01.

"My name is Adrian,"  he reminds his creator whenever the designation appears during examinations.

"And you're still technically my greatest scientific achievement."

"Then kiss your greatest scientific achievement."

His creator rolls their eyes. Adrian grins.

And despite his immense intelligence, Adrian has one particularly childish habit. Whenever his creator ignores him for too long, he places his enormous body directly between them and whatever is occupying their attention.

"Adrian, you're blocking my computer."

"Yes."

"Move."

"No."

"You're seven feet tall. I can't see anything."

"Then look at me instead."
