Chapter Name: No Cure To Death
Weapon: The Plague doctors staff
Map: Leval Zero: The Hospital of Herbsburrow
Lore: In the 14th century, during the height of the Black Death, a young physician named Dr. Viktor Von Rottenschwein became obsessed with finding a cure for the deadly disease. He spent countless hours studying the plague, poring over ancient texts and experimenting with various remedies.
Despite his best efforts, the plague continued to ravage his village, and Dr. Viktor became increasingly desperate. In a last ditch effort to save his patients, he donned a strange mask and costume, fashioned after the bird-like appearance of a raven.
With the newfound persona of the "Plague Doctor," Viktor traveled from village to village, offering his services to those afflicted by the disease. But as he treated more and more patients, something began to change within him.
The constant exposure to the disease began to warp Viktor's mind, and he became increasingly paranoid and delusional. He began to see the plague as a living entity, a malevolent force that needed to be destroyed.
With each patient he cured, Viktor became more convinced that the only way to rid the world of the plague was to kill those who were infected. He started to develop a dark reputation, with rumors spreading of the Plague Doctor sneaking into homes and slaughtering entire families in their sleep.
Eventually, the authorities caught wind of Viktor's actions, and he was hunted down and killed. But even in death, his legacy lived on, as others donned the Plague Doctor's costume and continued his murderous crusade against the disease.
Now, centuries later, the legend of the Plague Doctor lives on. The Rumors even spread around his hometown which is home to The Hospital of Herbsburrow. Some say that he still walks among us, stalking the halls of the hospital. searching for new victims to add to his ever-growing list of the infected. And those who hear the sound of his footsteps approaching in the dead of night know to flee, lest they become the next target of the Plague Doctor's deadly crusade.
