## Biography

In the beginning of the game, a mail called "A New Headache" showed up, addressed to Myers from Chaser. It contained information about a new encountered problem; how "that woman" is still alive and "the thing they were long searching for" (likely the power to see other people's memories through objects) was on her. It then asked how they would proceed. Myers replied they shall meet at 10pm at the same place they always did.

At the end of Chapter 1, they are shown to meet as planned. Monsieur M. scolds him for being 1 minute late, to which Chaser politely apologizes. He then tells him about the good and bad news; the good being "she" had awakened, and the bad that she didn't remember who she was. Myers seemed to be surprised about this, but didn't bother making any plan, as he said that all they needed to do was "wait for her to arrive".

In Chapter 3, another scene between the Chaser and Myers is shown. It started with Myers asking Chaser if he had anyone he loved, and giving him a thought experiment. He first asked him if he would still love his loved one if they were to lose their body, but keep their memories, to which Chaser agreed. He then asked him if he would still love them if they lost their memories, but kept their body, to which Chaser once again agreed. Myers found this answer amusing and lastly asked him, if he didn't mind them losing their body or their memories, what exactly he loved about that person, to which Chaser responded with silence. At last Myers told him that love is merely a self-fulfilling illusion and that who he loves is a person from his past that no longer exists. He then said that the brutal truth was that the moment someone lost their memories, they would no longer be themselves, and could never go back.

It was mentioned in a flashback at the end of Chapter 3, that the Chaser had been tasked with the murder of Dr. Richard Emanon, which he mishandled due to a sudden blackout and ended up leaving his victim bloody in pieces and attracting attention from residents in the building. Due to this, Vanora and Claude were tasked to go undercover as a detective and cop and pin the blame on someone else. In the middle of this, Vanora speculated Chaser's mishandling was due to him having a extreme fear of sudden darkness, and the reason for the dismemberment was to collect Emanon's body parts.

## Speculation

### Victor Blake

It is very likely that the true identity of Chaser is Victor Blake.

This is due to implications in several scenes.

In the mail from Chaser to Myers in the beginning of the game, the number of 'X's line up with his full name

In the 2022 version Chapter 1 if you named yourself "Chaser" Victor will appear to have a nervous look on his face, currently this reaction has been removed or is no longer working

Also in Chapter 1, after Victor finishes his explanation of the G4 Cyborg Incident, he is shown to be troubled by the time and leaves in a bit of a hurry. This is followed up at the end of the chapter, where Monsieur scolds him for being one minute late.
