Doctor Lyndon Castro
Pre-Infection
Lyndon Castro was born in 2224 in San Antonio, Texas. Growing up he took an interest not just in psychology, but parapsychology. It was reading pre-teen books on “Ghosts, Goblins and Things that Go Bump in the Night” where he became familiar with The Genevieve Project. At ten, he quickly got in touch with the then caretakers, and as time went on became intimately familiar with the stories of the two known Genevieves, as well as the underdocumented ones.
His interest in the project, and steadfast driven focus, led him to study psychology in high school, and achieve a PhD in Psychology, his thesis being on the Genevieve Syndrome itself at 35. Nearly obsessive in his pursuit of his degree, he had few relationships and never married.
At 30 he became an associate of the project. At 35, he immediately went into practice and also joined the project as a full on researcher. In 2261, at the age of 37, he got in contact with Catherine Wilson, who had been infected with the Genevieve Virus. The project, after almost a century without finding another Genevieve, remained little more than a small office building in Norristown, Pennsylvania. Without the reliable funding to bring her to America, he suggested they work long-distance until it was proven she had the Genevieve Syndrome.
When a second Genevieve was found in Beijing, and again, not having much in the way of funding to bring both the Chinese and Australian Genevieves together, he cashed out many of his personal investments and found backers to create a dormitory addition, as well as a guaranteed lifetime living expense for the two Genevieves tand to bring them both to Pennsylvania for study.
Infection
Dr. Castro suffered from a severe flu infection, which developed a concurrent pneumonia. Dr. Castro was hospitalized and nearly died from complications. The complete memory takeover took only two years.
Post-Infection
Castro's severe flu infection caused fairly strong respiration damage, which caused him to be susceptible to bronchitis, asthma, and even recurrent pneumonia. His health suffered, and by 2276 at the age of 52, he died of pneumonia.
