**Dr. Noah Butcher** is an NPC from New Nestor, being one of the scientists from Butcher Labs responsible for the infection. He is best known for repeatedly trying to right his wrongs before being turned into the Treant by a failed cure.

## Personality

Dr. Noah Butcher is a cold, calculated scientist, who willingly made a superweapon to level countries, only wishing to make a cure when his country became the victim of it.

## History

### Before the Apocalypse

Noah was among the team working under the US government to make a weapon to be used as revenge for 9/11. During cleanup one night, Noah accidentally bumped the concoction. Not knowing about the reaction it would have, Noah showed up uncharacteristically late to the lab the next day, finding Mikhael after he escaped from the building. The pair investigated a yellow cloud that came from the concoction, discovering that they had made their weapon into a living being who could make offspring. Mikhael and Noah work on a cure for the next month, and instead of testing the cure on civilians in Faraday, Mikhael offers to test it on himself, to which Noah reluctantly lets him. The cure does nothing, and Noah helps cleave Mikhael's arm off of his body to prevent the infection from spreading.

Noah later went back to Faraday, dispensing his cure into their water supply, killing all but Portland, Jacksonville, and Seattle in the process, albeit accidentally.

### New Nestor Campaign

While not shown, Noah's cure was the reason Valentino began to turn.

Noah was not seen until the party had went to the Sunken Clam Bar, wherein he and Dr. Kinoko were working on a cure. Upon asking if they could retrieve some components for them to continue their research, Fisherman Guy intimidated him into revealing his intention with said components, divulging his and Mikhael's history being responsible for the infection. After Fisherman Guy asked him about his dick size, Noah said he had been compensating, and after Fisherman Guy intimidated him into dropping his pants, he found out that Noah wasn't lying, much to Rachel's disappointment in the fisherman.

Noah was not seen again until the party returned to the Clam, wherein he witnessed Stu turning and, upon testing the cure on himself, noticed he was fine after Stu popped, until he wasn't. His stomach burst open, transforming him into a Smasher with the tentacles from his stomach, before the Smasher mutated again into the Treant. He laid siege on the party, but was only able to kill Roy before he met his untimely demise.
