Lazlo

Project Lazarus
Project Lazarus was a joint project developed by Richard Kramer and Lewis Trager in 1897, some of the highest ranked and respected within the scientific community, possibly the most curious yet disturbed minds within The Inquisitions Ministry of Science. The goal of this project was to create the perfect soldier from deceased tissue to create a new entity, this entity could be programmed to execute tasks within specific parameters while still having the capability of independent thought. Before the program was developed on a more industrial scale the powers that be within the Inquisition decided to test these “subjects” on a small scale developing 40 test subjects within a newly acquired facility in Ingolstadt Bavaria. The facility disguised as a hospital with three wings, two of these wings the General Admissions and the Injury Rehabilitation Wing, were legitimately run as functioning wings of a hospital for the general populace. Although the third wing developed for the unstable and insane patients of the hospital did house patients it was also where the main laboratory of the Lazarus Project was located.

Now that Kramer and Trager had a facility full of resources and highly trained staff they began the initial development and although successfully bringing the subjects to life they soon realised that using brain samples that had mental and psychological disorders in previous lives would transfer to the newborn. This would cause the subjects to either be brain dead from trauma or completely psychotic. Both results were suboptimal as far as the team was concerned. This caused Trager to go directly to The Inquisition and several political supporters of the group asking for resources in the form of the critically injured and voluntary subjects to be used in a secondary test phase. The higher ups agreed to using these new subjects but The Inquisition insisted that these new subjects were taken from their own ranks. This caused a rift between Kramer and Trager, Kramer believing that Trager was attempting to steal the project and take overall control of it.

All the pieces were finally in place and creation of the new Inquisition Subjects began, this time with a new blood solution as well as various mechanical augments to make the subjects more effective in the field.

Creation
One of the chosen Inquisitorial subjects for the project was a man named Damien Whitwether having received horrific injuries during the Boer War and later dying in Ingolstadt General Hospital due to further complications. This was a blessing in disguise to Kramer and Tragers team as Damien was a perfect specimen for the project after preparations were made.
