Dr. Sterk

Dr. Sterk is a character that was made by Discord user Comedylad, also going by "Funnysterk" on Deviantart and Fandom. The character himself is an antagonistic human who had fallen into the underground years before Frisk (chronologically falling between the Bravery and Integrity human), and was still attending college before his descent into the underground. he eventually became an apprentice to the Royal Scientist WD Gaster before both faced their Descent... although, what happened to the apprentice was a much different story. 
Note: This character is currently being rewritten and updated to his current lore for the newer version of the determined saga, in which he'll take the role of a one-off antagonist in his debut, but may have minor antagonistic interactions in the timelines he appears in.
==Story==
===Pre-Gaster===
Raymond was a normal human before he fell into the underground, one who was put on thin ice when it came to life choices, making friends and foes with every twist and turn he was put in, and yet trying to manipulate people he wasn't related to for his own benefit. often he'd be stuck in his room thinking about his future while watching Sci-fi movies and occasionally inviting people over. However, during his college years, he made the choice to travel to MT. Ebott with a couple of other people, In which he joked about jumping down the hole... however, one of the people who followed him chose to push him down as a prank, being unaware that he'd end up in the underground... His Eternal Prison!
During his first day in the underground, Raymond woke up in the middle of a flower bed, and was rather curious of how they cushioned a fall that could have killed him in the first place, but his attention was immediately directed towards a boss monster, known across the underground (or at least a small chunk of it) as the keeper of the ruins; Toriel. At first, the young man began panicking, and tried to defense himself, but was halted by the Queen's hospitality, and after a bit of compensation, found himself safe within the ruins. although the puzzles did seem rather dubious and even deadly, Toriel's kindness shined through and through, even saving him from touching the edge of a spike.
{The following is a conversation that occurred when Toriel tested Raymond's Independance} 
*Toriel: how is your new home coming along, child?
* Raymond: I-I... *stuttering*
* Toriel: Are you afraid?
*Raymond: well, I heard monsters are very ruthless, even heard they're associated with Demons.
*Toriel: I promise, my child, there are no "Demons" in the underground. I wouldn't be proud to raise a young person in such a terrible condition.
*Raymond: and what if it were the case? look I ain't trying to scare you, I'm just somewhat concerned.
*Toriel: I'd... I honestly don't know, never even met a demon.
*Toriel began to notice stains on Raymond's clothes
*Toriel: your clothes are dirty, do you need a bath?
*Raymond: I'm... fine, actually.
* Toriel: oh, well, I was thinking about your Hygiene, which is very Important.
*Raymond: I know It is, and in this case I can say that I'm healthy... other than the stains
*Toriel: in that case, I guess we can begin your final puzzle.
*Raymond: Oh nic- wait, WHAT!?
*Toriel: I must know if you can walk on your own.
*Raymond: Uh, Okay.
*Toriel: just go to that pillar without my assistance.
*Raymond: Alright... I guess.
*The young man would walk, although stumbling a bit due to his recent fall. eventually he'd make it to the pillar, in which toriel would be standing right next to him.
*Toriel: are you okay, chil-
* Raymond: first off, yes, and second of all... uh.. I'm not a child.
* Toriel: Well, you see, Young man, to me you are just a big child... and older people would just be bigger children.
*Raymond: how old even are you?
* Toriel: It's been centuries since the war, so I can definitely say that I'm rather... "ancient", should I say?
* Raymond: HOLY CRAPAMOLE, You must-
* Toriel: now now, young man, no need for such strong language... although I can tell you see me as a rather old monster. now then, do you wish to continue?
*Raymond: uh... my apologies for the excitement, lady. and yes, I'd like to return to your home.
* Toriel: alright then. please, follow me.
{End of Conversation}
Of course, Toriel remembered she had to go get groceries, and in the middle of their trek asked that the young man would stay there until she came back... of course, this grocery trip took minutes, and then those minutes became hours. out of pure Impatience, Sterk would secretly make his way through the ruins without her permission, breaking his promise to stay until she returned. While Toriel didn't exactly punish him when she got back to her house, she did scorn him, leaving him to rethink his own choices... however, this wouldn't be the end of his acts of deceit... This was just the start.
As Raymond was about to exit the ruins, wanting to know what exactly was outside, Toriel constantly told him off, to never run out of the ruins. however, one night, the young man decided it was time to go, and as he wrote her an apology/Goodbye note, he left the ruins in secrecy, leading him to Snowdin. In snowdin, things were more dangerous, as the royal Guardsmen were scouting for humans such as himself, who caught their attention rather quick. The Greater and lesser Dog weren't much of a threat, but this was when he made his second act of deceit; attempting to guilt-trip the Greater dog, which after a bit of begging, attempting to play fetch, and emotional drama (something he normally hated), The Greater Dog spared his life, and even acted against the other guardsman. Of course, this act of beggary didn't really prove mandatory, as when he approached the town, the folk were rather passive, despite being a human, although very few did plan to take his soul for themselves... most notably a Jester, who attempted to murder him with a rusty knife. when Sterk was about to get his throat cut in his sleep, he woke up to the excited breathing of a monster, and with fear running through his veins, made a run for it. It was at this point when he reached waterfall when he met his biggest threat; a humble-looking Royal Guardsman, who pulled out his hammer and gave out a hearty laugh; "WAH HAH HAH!" 
While the turtle did seem to look friendly, it was clear what he was looking for, which lead to the chase becoming more intense. the Jester lost him, but the old royal captain still had enough strength to chase him down. as Sterk began to run, he was slowly running out of breath, even tripping over a stone, and as a desperate attempt to stay alive, Sterk threw the stone at the Turtle, which would have done nothing... however, the moment the captain got to him, he smiled with unfamiliar, peaceful intent. {The text here is the conversation between the two Individuals}
* Gerson: young Boy... I can see why you do not wish to help monsterkind... death doesn't seem unfavorable, does it?
*Raymond: DO I LOOK LIKE I WANNA FRICKIN' DIE!?
*Gerson: Hey, Hey! no need to get so rough, Boy. look, I am giving you a chance to run away... a human's life is just as Important as a monster's... besides, my back's been aching lately. how's about a truce?
*Raymond: I guess... wait, WHAT!?
* Gerson: well, young man... see that SOUL ya' got there? It may be valuable at first glance, but I've seen people of your type... I'll warn you... I'm only letting you off this once... It'd be unfortunate if we meet again, especially if the other royal guards get involved... you might meet a fate worse than the other 6.
*Raymond: Oh... so what, am I Special or something?
*Gerson: Much less special and more so... Unfortunate. Asgore has essentially made it a rule that all humans are either killed or sent to the Deeperground, depending on the SOUL they harbor... yours just so happens to be the same color as a fallen human who was already dead...
*Raymond: so what, do I go to the Deeperground? what is it like there?
*Gerson: Asgore may be an ol' fluffybuns, but the deeperground is a fate worse than death; only humans with souls Incompatible or with an already filled role go down there. other than that, It's all monsters who've done things worse than smuggle an extra drink of water... ever killed someone?
*Raymond: N-No... I mean I've hit people before, but...
*Gerson: Hit or not, You're a more Innocent Individual... but some say even the accused turn into Mad men once they spend too much time down there... enough talk, go on, boy. WAH HAH HAH!
*The young man begins to make his way out of waterfall
* Raymond: thanks.. uh, what's your name? Name's Raymond.
*Gerson: Oh, How rude of me, the name's Gerson, Gerson Boom. Take Care, young boy.
*Raymond: Alrighty.
*Gerson: Nice seein' ya, Young man!
*Raymond: uh... nice meeting you, I guess.
*The young man began to make his way to Hotland
*Gerson: Don't get yourself into Trouble!
{End of Conversation}
As the young adult began approaching Hotland, he began to have a warm feeling... literally. there was lava below him, and with every step he took, he feared he'd fall into it. his goal was clear: to leave Hotland and get to the end of the underground, where he could finally escape... however, as he began to get close to an elevator, someone grabbed him from behind... a strange, tall monster clad in white robes, with a perpetual smile and more formal clothing, as opposed to Raymond's white T-shirt and Sweatpants. he tried to run from the Scientistesque individual, but was knocked out cold... his vision became blurry as the last thing he saw... was something Very, Very Interesting...

When the young man woke up, he was stuck on a table, his body shackled and unable to move. He looked at his surroundings, and with some hesitation, began to scream for help. His life was turned upside down and was being drained from his very being... or at least that's what he thought. the table seemed to have wheels, and was being pushed by the same man who abducted him minutes prior. he looked at him, terrified and helpless, before the man put a finger over his own mouth, signifying him to remain silent. 
{the following is a conversation between Dr. Gaster, Assistant A, Assistant B, and Assistant C (all 3 assistants being the Gaster followers before their descent), with Raymond Sterk being the focus. while reading, it's recommended you listen to this for the sake of building mood}
* Gaster: Don't mind me, fellow scholars, we have a special guest to stay with us Today.
*Assistant B: Affirmative, Doctor.
*Gaster: I found this Live human specimen near Hotland... to say the least, he won't be any use for breaking the barrier, and I've been looking to find a use for him.
*Assistant C: Would be rude to call it a specimen.. I mean, Observe their facial features.
*Raymond, out of combined fear and rage, began to shake his fist towards Gaster.
*Raymond: I'M NOT A FRICKIN' "SPECIMEN", I'M A PERSON!
* Gaster: Oh, my apologies... didn't mean to offend you, Subject S107.
*Raymond: SUBJECT!? I'M A NORMAL PERSON! WHY ARE YOU MONSTERS WANTING TO KILL ME!? WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?
*Gaster: I'm not wishing for your death specifically, actually... but more so service of any kind, one that could save Monster kind or at least make this abyss more... Hospitable.
*Raymond: yeah right.
*Assistant A: No need to be rude, young man... we get that you're dispirited as of now, but maybe you should consider how many lives you could save. You could almost be a hero.
*Raymond: why the HELL would I wanna be a hero!? especially to a bunch of ugly-
*Gaster: ssshhh...
*Gaster put his finger over his own mouth, putting another finger on Sterk's.
* Raymond: What kind of painful experiments do you want ME in?
*Gaster: hmm... Good question. Say, do any of you recall how small our facility really is?
*Assistant C: there are only four of us... perhaps a fifth doctor could be of use?
* Assistant B: A HUMAN doctor? have you become deranged!? Asgore would banish us if we chose to do such a mindless act!
*Gaster: perhaps... Say, Assistant C, are you confident that this would make a good apprentice?
*Assistant C: Indeed... humans have been studying science for years... or at least I'd like to believe so, what else would they be doing on the surface? beating each other to death!?
*Raymond: yeah, we have science classes back where I lived... not much really, just studying stuff like Astronomy, chemistry, sometimes Biology.
*Gaster: turns out you were correct... how often do you pay attention to these classes?
*Raymond: somewhat listened to my classes, weren't that Interesting compared to future technology... ya' know, self-driving cars and assembly lines.
*Gaster: assembly lines? we have one of those in the meat factory.
* Raymond: Meat factory? so ya'll eat people?
*The doctor shook his head in defiance, before releasing him from the table, Sterk was at first wishing to punch him, but a sense of hospitality came from the mysterious man.
*Gaster: Incorrect... also, you are welcome for your release.
*Raymond: so... uh, what's your name?
*Gaster: Dr. WD Gaster. former Royal scientist of the Underground. please define your Identity.
* Raymond: uh. R-Raymond Sterk.
* Gaster: Sterk... sounds like a rather compulsive last name... Innovative, even.
*Raymond: Thanks, I guess.
* Gaster: hmm, could use some work on your speech, no "Offense".
*Raymond: what do you mean?
*Gaster: In our facility, speech is formalized to our nature... we speak with more "Broad" vocabulary, nothing too simple.
* Raymond: and for what, to flex your own Smartness or something?
*Gaster: Somewhat correct, but It's more of a "code of ethics", and In retrospect, I think the use of advanced lexicon is quite fascinating, if not brill.
*Raymond: so... do I just call myself "Sterk" for now on or something?
*Gaster: By all means, yes.
*Sterk: so... where do I start?
*Gaster: we'll start with a couple house-keeping objectives... a bath & new set of attire will be first, followed by vocabulary & formality practice and a code of conduct. do you think you'll be able to accept your... "New life"?
* Sterk: ... Affirmative.
{Here ends the dialogue}
As soon as Sterk agreed to be Gaster's hidden apprentice, his new life began. he started off as Gaster Intended, bathing and putting on a more fitting set of attire: a white shirt with a black, unwrinkled lab coat, a pair of softened jeans and sneakers designed to be worn by a gentleman. as soon as he got dressed, Gaster tested his vocabulary, having a conversation with Gaster asking him questions, encouraging him to use more unique words. as they talked, Gaster began teaching Sterk things he never even understood until now. The Multiverse, the history of mankind and monsters, and the untapped potential of human SOULS. Through this knowledge, Sterk began to understand everything, and slowly but surely, he began to fit in with the rest.
As time went on, month after month, Gaster had his new apprentice help him with new experiments, such as Inventing future defenses In case of any "Genocide" occurrences, foreshadowing a potential dark future, as well was finalizing the CORE, the penultimate machine & magnus Opus of the royal scientists,.. however, during this time, there would be an unnamed experiment that would change 
As a final offer, as they were floating in the midst of the void, a small and unstable pocket within time and space, Gaster gave his followers and his apprentice 4 "escape ropes", yet another device designed. which allowed users to to escape dark places, and without hesitation, the Assistants made the choice to make haste and escape being broken across space and time... This, of course, didn't entirely save them, as the followers were now gone, perhaps sealed within certain timelines... and then began the tragedy of Dr. Sterk, who forgot to give him a final Farewell, making his partnership feel empty.
As Sterk woke up in the middle of the lab, he began to look at himself, and then at the ceiling... he looked in shock at how the void transformed him, as his head was cracked, and his skin was now bone white, and It seemed as If his hair grew longer, as if he somehow remained alive for 100 years... during this same day, Asgore promised to see this project at work, but was greatly devastated at what he saw; his own scientists were gone, leaving only... a human, somehow working under Gaster's directions, which could only be seen as treason. Remembering the human children, however, Asgore couldn't bring himself to kill Sterk, but Instead ordered the royal Guardsmen to take him where he belonged... in the soaking wet depths below the waterfall; The Deeperground, which as Gerson once said; "is a fate worse than death."

====Introduction ====
*[WELLWELLWELLWELLWELL], LOOK WHAT WE GOT
[This is a work in progress]
===Appearance===
in terms of appearance, (Peri and post Gaster, in this case), is a fairly Skinny, 6'4 tall human being in his late-20's with pale skin (due to being corrupted from being semi-shattered across time and space, with small fractals of him still appearing from time to time in different timelines, that's also why he has a crack on his head). He wears a Black labcoat with a white T-shirt, some black leggings for optimal comfort, and a pair of Jet black sandals. he has allowed his hair to grow long enough to style it in the same manner that would be used for Mettaton, so sometimes he has to blow his hair to the side to see. he has black, dot-like eyes, due to his Now Inhuman Nature caused by the corruption of his physical body. 
===Personality===
{WIP}
===Powers, Tools, & abilities===
These are his Stats, tools, abilities, and attacks that he is capable of using in combat. he has nothing in particular beyond these skills. (of course, his life skills only include speaking formally, taking showers, and making basic food, so don't ask him for a butterscotch pie.)
*Deceit Soul: Due to his acts of trickery and constant lying, accompanied by being dragged across the dark corners of time and space, Sterk's soul has been corrupted, inverting his Integrity trait, turning it into a darker blue soul, which can be identified as the soul of Deceit. because of this, Sterk is rather 
** Trickery: he is capable of manipulating people by messing with their heads, casting Illusions and making lies seem true, only to flat-out turn out to be pure trickery (although, he isn't really the best liar, so this ability is more of a crutch if anything)
** Deceit Sabre: Sterk often carries around a pocket knife for self-defense or to threaten other people when his life depends on it (well... when HE THINKS his life depends on it). When put in a rock and a hard place, Sterk uses this as an opportunity to use one of his only few magic techniques, turning the pocket knife into a one-handed Rapier capable of cutting through SOULs and extending extreme distances... however, this sabre counts as a magical blue attack when extended, and so it may be rendered useless against unmoving objects and intelligent kids who know what a "Blue stop sign" is.
*Inventing Prowess: Thanks to his time spent with Gaster, Sterk has enough Knowledge to create various different Tools and weapons to achieve his goals. this can Include stuff such as Mechanical Screw-drivers or even the deadly Proto Blaster. (the Items shown down below are a list of Items he carries within his lab coat that show this ability)
** Electric tools - his lab coat's pockets have a set of Electricity-powered tools that are used for crafting/augmenting materials or machines.
**Handy Helpers - A summonable set of SOUL powered weapons that resemble human hands, which are capable of grabbing things,
*Proto Blasters: Although Sterk may not have access to Gaster Blasters that use pure magic, he does have access to a more smaller, portable Prototype, which resembles a mechanical eye rather than a dog skull (think back to the lasers in hotland). the Prototype can only fire small laser bullets, but thanks to a bit of tweaking, they fire at a rather quick rate... they come in two different attack types:
**Wreck: a more simple variant of the Proto blaster, which has white Sclera, a white Iris, and a black pupil, which will fire 3 short laser beams as opposed to one long laser like the Gaster Blaster.
**Spew: Proto blasters that spew will have a black sclera, black Iris, and a blue pupil, and will fire a rotating, 4-directional barrage of small tear-like lasers.
====Weaknesses====
*Being Overwhelmed - very straight forward, Sterk is incapable of taking down hordes of people at once, and grows very nervous when dealing with such a situation.
*Source requirement - most of his machines require batteries or a sort of power source, otherwise they won't work... after all, they aren't like mechanical pencils.
*Corrupt body - Due to being corrupted by the Unknown/The void, he is essentially a being made of altered flesh and darkness, so light and holy magic can prove more lethal than typical fire magic.
*"Do I look like a material dispenser to you?" - When It comes down to his Innovative work in the lab, he does require proper materials and tools to be within possession for him to make the tools he desires... otherwise he's basically not much.
*Incapability to solve Algebra - Despite his Scientific genius, his math skills are rather lacking, to the point where he is carrying a calculator for a lot of situations. simple fractions and dividing won't be much of a Inconvenience, but once you start adding letters, unless it's something like Quantum Theory, he is incapable of solving it... he's better off making machines and (even better off) watching anime.
==Relationships ==
===Toriel ===
As of now, Sterk essentially sees Toriel as "betrayed" due to his first act of deceit, and is one of the monsters he feels guilty for. he believes that if he never decided to escape her house, he would have lived a much different life.
===Greater Dog===
Another Monster that he felt guilty for manipulating, but believes they were a great, If not a partner... he always thought that a dog was a man's best friend... unless if it were Doggo.
===Doggo===
Sterk is one of, if not the primary target for this blind mercenary, and both seem to have a lot of beef against each other. Doggo sees Sterk as another human who could be slain for the betterment of monster society, whereas Sterk sees doggo as "Man's worst friend, a total [SUCKER}"
===Gerson ===
Sterk had no Qualms in protecting himself from Gerson, but has grown a secret soft spot for the guy. It's very likely that the two would be Acquaintances once more if they met... that is, if it wasn't for Asgore getting in between things.
===Asgore===
To put it in short terms, Sterk really despises Asgore, to the point where he wishes he could rip both his horns off his head and murder him with his own horns... as said before, Sterk sees Asgore as a "[TOTAL JACKASS]", whereas Asgore sees him as "an example of human malevolence", so both of them wouldn't get along if they met each other. One monster's war became another man's struggle. 
===WD Gaster===
To Sterk, Gaster was a mentor, perhaps even a second father figure, and one that he could even call "a real buddy". while he did at first fear and grew agitated his very presence, as with all monsters, the two eventually began to connect rather quickly through their experiments, as seen in later in the Peri-Gaster and Post-Gaster parts of the storyline
===Assistants A, B, & C===
Essentially, sterk has grown a huge appreciation over Assistant C (also known as the 3rd Gaster follower in undertale), and seems to prize him over the other two. to him, the other two are more so "partners" than Buddies.
===Alphys===
While Sterk wasn't all that fond of being a geek at first, Alphys's nerdiness eventually began to reach him, leading to her teaching the appentice about anime. His fondness for the content eventually lead to another Obsession: Catgirls. Alphys occasionally wore Cat ears just to get Sterk riled up, but eventually this stopped when Gaster asked her to stop doing so.
===Sans and papyrus===
Being there during their creation, Sterk did get an overview of what kind of personality sans and papyrus may develop as they begin to live their lives amongst other monsters... Sterk would obviously be chill with them, as long as sans doesn't pull an excessive amount of pranks on him or make bad puns 24/7 (which unfortunately, the latter is true). 
===Frisk===
Sterk would not see frisk as a person, especially due to their mute and curious behavior, and more so as a sapient object. at first he'd try to gain their trust by helping them out, but when it's all too late, he'd give the human a "quick and painless ticket to [HEAVEN]".
===Chara===
Due to chara's ghost-like nature, Sterk wouldn't be all that comfortable with them making appearances left and right... while Chara is just a voice in frisk's head, it is possible that very few can see an apparition of them, Sterk being one of these individuals. Sterk really just sees Chara as some weirdo that just appears and disappears with every every second, and could care less about their past as an adopted heir to the throne.
===Flowey===
As seen in his profile, Sterk eventually teams up with Flowey as soon as the Underground's barrier is broken. this happened due to Fowey's curiosity of the Deeperground, and when he found out about it manifesting in certain timelines, he began to experiment with it, and as a result constantly got on the apprentice's nerves. Sterk, after a couple days, had declared Flowey as "an edgy Dumb-Dumb with a [DIVINE BEING} Complex", which he often follows up with "Screw off".
===Undyne ===
Despite being Alphys's mutual lover, Undyne would definitely not think twice before giving Sterk the finger and a couple spears, due to Asgore's teachings, making this one of Alphys's reasons why she never confessed her love. If Undyne met the guy, he'd definitely be Intimidated by her presence and would seek hostility if running is not an option.
===Mettaton & Napstablook===
Being alphys's creation, MTT would easily gain interest from the mad scientist, who's always had a fascination for dazzling or complex designs & robots. He would definitely enjoy Mettaton's drama, since It's "preferable over the petty high school drama that [FAMOUS SURFACE STUDIOS] pump out nowadays".
===Muffet===
While Sterk would respect Muffet's formal and polite mannerisms, the fact that she's a spider monster and the fact that anyone who refuses to buy gets turned into pastry filling would definitely set him off, essentially leading him into bickering and getting into VERY heated conversations with muffet. Overall, Sterk's overview of muffet would be a "the world's most [CULTIVATED | DISLOYAL INSECT]".
==Trivia==
* Sterk canonically owns an entire collection of Mew Mew Kissie Cutie 2 plush toys, which may allude to an secret obsession with catgirls.
*Sterk was actually made by Funnyman before Deltarune chapter 2, when the Character Spamton G. Spamton was made Public... however, Sterk as of now is still being worked on, and will be given more similarities to the said salesman, since the character was made by Toby Fox, but has also been separated by Spamton with additional differences.
*While he does Originate from a series of extended Undertale timelines (known as the determined saga), It is possible for him to travel to other AUs. Sterk would theoretically be able to travel to other AUs, since Gaster did give him some knowledge Quantum Theory, however he may need some time and effort to work on a machine to do so... and Sterk Isn't exactly known for his patience. (hence why he wouldn't be considered an Outcode! entirely).
*While his joy and excitement does tend to be bottled up, non-malicious smiling and positive comments are proof that he can be a jolly Individual... he has a bad habit of giggling at people's misfortunes, even when he knows it's wrong.
*His character actually has various references, accompanied by his similarities to Spamton. his last name is actually a letter change of "Stark", the last name of Iron Man's true Identity. His fall from grace and Jovial mood (which isn't apparent at first) may reference Sisyphus Future Noah from Tribetwelve, in which both are stuck in a depraved state in the middle of nowhere. his formality and nerdy personality that's later developed may be based on Wheatley from Portal 2, who acts in a similar manner. and lastly, the Ocular Scanner and his slight interest in gaming is a very obvious reference to two particular things; Dragon Ball Z and Berdly from DELTARUNE.
*while Sterk is a very casual and somewhat lazy guy, he's not one to promote messiness, so expect him to see a massive stain on a table and try to clean it with the world's most advanced surface cleaning drone... that hasn't gotten all the kinks sorted.
*While Sterk is very capable of fighting, he's also very cowardly, and will often stick to (and literally hide behind) Proto blasters until he's gained enough confidence.
*Ironically, he really hates Mary Sues in his writing, which is why he only watches certain anime franchises (his favorite being a Spin off of Mew mew kissie cutie; Mew Mew's Mad Misadventures, which features a ton of character development, action, and Surreal humor).
*While Sterk never killed anyone before he became the mad scientist inside the Deeperground, he was picked on during his childhood, which did lead to him having violent fits of bad temper... his own violent behavior during these fits were what lead to his LV going from 1 to 2.
*If he were to ever Meet a majority of alternate sanses, he'd be confused, especially since he hardly even knows the original (and never even met him).
