Lynx has questionable morals, he seems uncaring about most of reality's contents and easily distracted from serious events. He seems generally unintelligent and unwilling to learn and this is reflected in his decisions and everyday life. Lynx busies himself with an endless stream of stimuli, constantly moving and getting stir crazy within minutes of being at a location, this is something that is accomodated by the vast amount of easily accessible locations within Mutta Hotel.
If you asked me, I would diagnose him with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, to an extreme degree, although I have not attempted to medicate him as Mr.Cierge seems capable of managing the symtoms and has expressed to me that getting Lynx to take a pill is 'as difficult as medicating a real lynx'. I would also diagnose Lynx with a form of antisocial personality disorder or perhaps some form of mania, he has a tendancy to enter episodes that cause him to be easily provoked into violence against others, often ending lethally, this also manifests as a consistant effort to enter spaces not typically allowed. Lynx has broken into buildings, climbed roofs and lived in illegal encampments for most of his life, in my opinion this is driven by his early childhood upbringing where this behaviour was not shunned.
During these episodes of mania, Lynx has commited murder, he does not recognise this as it seems Lynx is mentally unable to process the true enviroment of the hotel. Upon seeing those who have mutated features, he manages to logic them into something that would be possible without said mutations, even to extreme degrees as processing large fully mutated guests as smaller, simple, normal animals. Even when things are directally pointed out to him, he cannot understand nor internalise what he is seeing, and these episodes of violence lead him to killing things that he does not even percieve as alive. (Edit: These episodes are triggered by other actions, most of it is due to someone grabbing him and restricting him when he is focused on work. -Con)
Lynx also has an extreme fear of the dark, unable to look into even a black painted box before causing extreme upset. When faced with an enviroment complete devoid of light, where the night vision goggles he persistantly wears (even to the point of degrading his eye sight) cannot be useful, he entirely shuts down. Mr.Cierge recollects a time that he had to drag Lynx from an enviroment as descibed and the man was unresponsive and crying for hours until eventually calming down. Despite this level of fear, Lynx is unable to or unwilling to adress it. (Edit: He is able to, but only when not in an over-stimulated state. -Con)
I would use the above mentioned phobia as an explanation of Lynx's chronic and severe insomnia. Lynx, himself, recounts times where he has been awake for periods far exceeding 72 hours or going weeks with very little rest. He struggles falling asleep if he isnt exhausted, something I attribute to the fact that to close his eyes would mean he would be in the dark, meaning he must be regularly tired out during the day if he is to sleep a healthy amount at night. Mr.Cierge states that he has found methods of consistantly achiveing this and Lynx no longer regularly exceeds healthy limits of wake time, although I can only assume the damage is already done by his past episodes.
Lynx carries extreme impulsivity, often darting around to do whatever thought has popped into his head before he has even processed it, but he is also easily expressive and will talk about what he is doing in detail ( though it will be distored though his deluded world view ). He does not seem to carry anxieties other than the well-being and location of Mr.Cierge, despite him having an unnatural ability to tell where his codependancy is located at all times- detailed later in this report.
To note, Lynx is also extremely competitive, adding a timer to everything or consistently asking how others performed. This may of skewed the results of his physical health exams as he was trying to beat other peoples results- something that is not desired when I am trying to get a baseline of general well being. This also drives him in his other activites, but is often utilized to motivate him to be more effective in the work place. (Edit: He can complete mapping a medium sized floor faster than the previous most effective mapper, he is now used as a baseline for new hires. -Con)
Overall Lynx is a deluded and reality detatched man, despite that he is happy and easily entertained. His needs are met by Mr.Cierge and his wants are easily fulfullied by his own actions. Lynx does seek an exit to the hotel, although he does not seem to be distressed by the idea of staying.
Mannerisms
Lynx has a variety of mannersims that are listed below;
Speech
Lynx has a unique speech pattern and an irregular accent. he often shortens words or pronounces them incorrectly on purpose, he does this to names explicitly, always changing the name of who he is speaking to to a relevant nickname. (Edit: With an exception of myself. -Con). He has a tendancy to answer questions backwards, in so far as adressing the first question asked of him in a series of questions, although this does prove he remembers what is said to him during a conversation. A final quirk is he tending to speak without a filter, this can be useful when you want information on his thought process but no other situation.
FORM OC-404: History known of individual.
Origin
Lynx describes his early years as unrestricted, he was raised in a religious based orphanage but consistantly ran away until he was of age and not obligated to return. He, however, speaks fondly of his caretaker there and refers to her as his 'big sis' despite no familial relation. Lynx is not aware of his origins, neither in location or parentage. (Edit: He ran away from the orphanage as the other children rejected him, this was due to his unrestrained violent impulses and tendancy to get into fights. Instead of helping Lynx manage these and creating a safer environment, it seems the organisation allowed him to curate his own in the dirty abandoned buildings within Kratcha city. -Con)
Lynx describes his teen years as 'really fun' but the details seem to contradict the definition. He told me about his travels both within the country and out of it, encounters with law enforcement and nights spent without food or shelter. Most of these stories could be describes as fun if they weren't happening to a predicted 14 - 18 year old. He also talks about a friend he made while homeless who he mentored in street saftey and in return was aided when he needed it. 'F-money' was younger than him by 2 years, but managed to get off the street and into his own apartment, something that Lynx did not join him in despite the open invite. Luckily for Lynx, 'F-Money' was available to ensure he was fed, watered and safe at parties that Lynx explained contained 'heavy drinking'.
Despite all this, Lynx does not seem to of gained particular traumas from this, although I doubt it aided in his adjustment to natural society. He retains a tendancy to drink heavily, sleep in areas not fit for the purpose and run away from any responsibilty. He has however recovered from the malnutrition that I diagnosed at his first assessment. (Edit: Lynx lives in the present, he has lived freely for most of his life and intends on doing the same for the foreseeable future. He is well travelled and contains knowledge from all this, Lynx is intelligent in survival situations and well adapted to disaster. -Con)
Biological Factors
Lynx does not presently have any signs of mutations. Despite his peers who have been here the same amount of time as him, he lacks any form of physical changes. (Edit: After a longer period of time, roughly a year, Lynx has developed many of my own muations in a much lesser degree. He has small orange (around 2 cm in length) antennae, a small orange tail that is in the style of a tentacle although resembling that of a bunny rabbit (around 4 inches in length) and mental adjustments that allow him to sense the location of myself anywhere in the world. He seems to be taking on the excess amount of my own mutation and consuming it for himself. Although it still doesn't make sense why its happening so slowly. -Con)
Lynx does however has a series of biological abnormalities. His eyes are notably an odd colour, this is due to the night vision goggles, he heavily relies on, having damaged his retnas from prolonged use. He seems to have limited vision in both dark and light as well as issues with seeing things further away. He also struggles to read, but that could be a sign of his intelligence rather than a physical abnormality. (Edit: It is due to his eyesight -Con). His eyes have taken on a bleached apperance and his pupils have increased reflection of light due to the damage to the light recieving cones in the back of his eyes. I do not believe this will improve over time.
Observing a full body x-ray, Lynx also has signs of excessive injury, There are many bones that have been broken repeatedly and not healed effectively causing fusions that are easily rebroken. I have attempted to treat these injuries as they reoccur but Lynx does not follow orders of bedrest. An injury that does not require an x-ray is the significant scarage across his left lips, according to himself this was due to catching his face on a hook when he was young and predictably, it was not seen nor treated by a medical professional. The scar is sigficant and caused damage to his upper palette that is now mildly deformed, it does not seem to bother him.
Lynx also has abnormalites in bodily markings, his face is freckled only on one side and the rest of his body is affected in random patches rather than wide spread throughout. His scars also vary in textures and healing method, some retaining an elastic like property others forming tough skin that dont flex. This also does not seem to bother him.
Presently
His life in the hotel consists of exploration in hopes for an exit, he seems motivated by the challenge rather than a true desire to escape, this activity has been uilitized into employment within the role as 'Mapper'. He find company within Mr.Cierge in a way that seems to help both of them, and has a wide social circle within the hotel amoungst all crowds. He is well liked and spends his time exploring new areas with and without the company of these friends.
