Chester Higgins

Chester D. Higgins is a Spacer's Choice engineer stationed at the Emerald Vale Geothermal Power Plant. He is located on the 4th sub-level of the plant's geothermal core.
==Background==
Chester Higgins is the sole human survivor of the automechanical guards at the geothermal power plant turning on the plant's human occupants. He was spared the massacre as he was on cleaning duty at the time that the mechanicals turned on the staff. Chester has been trapped in the plant due to the resultant security lockdown and has stayed alive by eating sprats which he cites as an excellent source of his daily recommended intake of mercury. However, he is slowly going insane in his isolation, believing the Stranger to be a phantom when they first meet, and blaming his potential hallucinations on the ingestion of raw sprats. Despite this, he uses his middle initial to remind himself that he is "Definitely Not Insane".Chester Higgins, on his survival, Geothermal Power Plant
