Stanley Pembroke

Stanley Pembroke is a minor Character that appears in the Comic "Cinder Isle" He is the father to Nathan/Natalie Pembroke and an investigative journalist originally from Portland Maine. He is one of the journalists that does not believe the cover story about an incident on Cinder Island that involved a freighter capsizing while hauling nuclear waste off the coast resulting in the contamination of the area and death of all the inhabitants. In an effort to prove his point he took his young son Nathan with him to scope the island out illegally on a fishing boat. Off the coast they spotted the island was still inhabited and there were no signs of radiation. However, as they watched they saw and caught a floating barrel that had been knocked into the ocean from a military base on the coast. They brought it aboard their boat but Stanley got some of the red fluid on his hands unknowingly getting infected with the T1-G1 Virus. A military patrol soon caught them and arrested the two just before Stanley began to show symptoms. As he began to get sick the military put a mask on Nathan and got him away from Stanley to protect him. At first Stanley refused to believe their claims about the virus but he was quick to eat his own words as he transformed. He asked if there was a cure but they pointed out they would not have such a serios quarantine in place if there was. He (now she) and Nathan were then taken to the base on the coast and encountered by General Windham whom Stanley had already met in press conferences beforehand. At first Stanley (now Stacy) said he'd get the truth out soon as the general had not choice but to take him to court but Windham pointed out they had committed a federal crime and lost any right to trial. Stacy argued she's set up contingencies with her coworkers but the General told her and Nathan they would be detained on the island and the military would fabricate evidence to make it seem they had died of radiation poisoning off the coast. Stacy was then placed under perminant house arrest as there was no prison on the island and Nathan was enrolled at the local school and permitted to go about his life as normally as possible. After Nathan was infected and became, Natalie Stacy was permitted to visit her in the hospital. There she met Elaine Houlton and the three friends Natalie had already made on the island. Elaine felt sorry for their situation and offered to help her and Natalie with things like drives to school, grocery shopping, and other errands as well as involve Natalie in some of their family activities such as their weekend up to sweet bread resort since Stacy could not leave her apartment the military had given the two of them. She was eventually cured and memory altered by Alistair Huntington several months later. Stacy had once again become Stanley and Alistair had memory altered both him and his ex-wife to now believe they moved to Cinder Isle the previous year allowing Natalie to remain with her friends after the pandemic ended.
