The Croatoan

==Summary==
The Croatoan, also known as The Other Oppenheimer, is the overarching antagonistic force of the Trinity Desk Project Series by Mister Manticore, which is itself loosely connected with The Monument Mythos. The Croatoan is a mysterious, seemingly immortal invisible being who has walked unseen among humanity since at least the 16th century. He is implied to have been a victim, or perhaps the instigar, of the 1590 Roanoke Colony disappearance, where all the settlers vanished due to exposure to a Natural Nuclear Reactor. The word "CROATOAN" left carved on a palisade was the only clue left to what had happened to the settlers. Centuries later, The Croatoan would make himself known once again, carving his name onto the wrists of the children who died in the Trinity Desk incident, indicating his involvement with the tragedy.
As it turns out, The Croatoan bears a striking, nearly indistinguishable physical resemblance to Physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the Atom Bomb, earning him the moniker of "The Other Oppenheimer". The true reason behind his uncanny appearance is because he is actually Oppenheimer's "Son", conceived through the explosion of the Trinity Nuclear Test, in Oppenheimer's attempt to create a superior being who could reside invisible from the laws of physics that govern the material universe.
