"Sorai is a very charming and friendly specimen, but don't let this fool you. He's very intelligent, and seems to always be on high alert, despite his easygoing optimistic attitude. During the times when his hunger peaks, though, he gets very aggressive and violent, and the amount of ... "resources" ... it takes to satisfy his hunger keeps increasing. Luckily, the peaks don't happen often, but I fear if he peaks again we'll be unable to satiate him. It's.. Terrifying to see him like that, as opposed to the friendly nature he upholds. He goes on and on about how he's hungry and how he hates us for keeping him like this, when he eats until he's full otherwise and even denies food we offer sometimes. I don't know why we need him, I don't even know where he came from, but if I have to keep watching him, I don't think I'll be staying here any longer, especially with how he acts when we leave him to his own devices." - Dr. █████ ████████

before ████████

Sorai was found when he was quite young, and is stated on record to have been surrendered to ████████ by his mother. No one knows what he is.

within ████████

Growing up within ████████, Sorai was treated both as a child and a specimen. This line was quite fickle, and hard to treat carefully; he didn't understand why he'd be allowed certain things only at specific times. He was relatively out of touch with other kids his age, even from the beginning, and being raised in such a way only caused a futher divide. Other than several classified experimentations run at ████████, his life was fairly uneventful.
