Biography[]

Broken Arrow[]

George Barkley was a Case Officer at American research group Broken Arrow, where he was subordinate to Project Manager Russman. He and Russman travelled to the abandoned Camp Edward facility in Nevada on July 6th, 2025 to transfer a sample of the Avogadro to the Hanford site in Washington for further research. He transferred to the Center for Disease Control by the end of the month.

CDC[]

After transferring to the CDC, he would become the Assistant Director of the CDC facility at Druid Hills, Georgia and would survive the destruction of Earth. The CDC headquarters would come to be destroyed, but not before Barkley and his team discovered Element 115 contamination in the air, implying infection is inevitable to all survivors. After fourteen members of his team seemingly fell under the symptoms of Element 115 infection (paranoia, short-term memory loss, delusion, and psychosis), he claimed to have been forced to euthanize them. He would later broadcast on various channels, attempting to contact other survivors. One broadcast detailed his experience at Georgia, while the other was an invitation to other survivors stating that he had "food, water, and medical supplies", enough to last several years. Barkley's fate after this is left ambiguous.

Trivia[]

  • Rather ironically, Barkley himself displays both short-term memory loss and paranoia, both symptoms of exposure to Element 115.
