Dr. Timotheus Sceptre

Dr. Timotheus Sceptre, usually referred as Dr. Sceptre or Tim, is an ex Area Research Chief and Area Research director, before he completely took the Mantle of O5-10 "Time".

He is part of the "First Class" Characters, and currently the only surviving one, along with Katlyn.

Description
Dr. Timotheus is usually described as unkempt and tired.

Physically, Tim is a tall man with ash brown hair and tired dark eyes. He is usually described to be holding a cup of coffee until O5-2 prohibited him from it. He doesn't have a very fit body.

Usually, he would wear a wrinkled and rumpled lab coat, some T shirt and the same red sneakers. Always.

Psychologically speaking, and even though he has regenerative healing properties, Tim usually looks tired, more because of his mental state then physical condition.

He considers death as a last resort action rather than the first one, but does not hesitate to do it when the job demands it, although he usually suffers from them, but does not fail because "It was what was needed to be done", usually referring as how he always acts to what he considers is the greater good.

Tim has a hard time understanding his motivations, or the right course when making decisions, since his morals are constantly contradicting or clashing, especially since he can't just blame his job for it.

He's motivations are the protection of the world and humanity, and other lifeforms. He considers his position, and the foundation, as being the heroes in the shadows that sacrifice their loves and desires for the sake of protecting the world, the part of the moto he has decided listen over anything, which is why every action and decision he takes is usually for the sake of the foundation and humanity as a whole, and not the individual.

Role-play History
Tim's first appearance was in the Research bay, along with Dr. Summer, when MTF soldier RAPTOR gave them a time machine, after being taken away later.

[...]

After shooting Dr. Rivera, Tim had a meltdown. He usually could blame his fault in the foundation, because killing traitors was "What the position demanded", but now that he was the one to make the rules, he felt lost, knowing he could've decided to not shoot the doctor. In the end, he calmed down, stating to himself it was still what the job required, because his job required him to act to protect the foundation, and therefore protecting everyone else. However he never felt his moral dilema was quite solved, but he also never knew how to do it.

Background history
In O5-10's file we find more information about the early years of Tim's life, including the creation of SCP-6740 and his past marriage with and unnamed person.

It is stated in the document where he is from, and his birth date. Following that, it is explained he was kicked out of his house at age 17, and moved to a redacted region with someone, also censored.

He entered the University of Copenhagen when he was 19 (2002) and graduated in six years later (2008). The same year he graduated, he got married.

After that, Dr. Sceptre worked for 3 years in the investigation center, The “Le minute finalize” project, researching pandemics. As he did, he also obtained a degree in chemical engineering (Probably online but it doesn't specify) and "mechanical knowledge". It is here where he created the beta version of what is today called SCP-6740, civilians calling it Ruohprofen. This invention is what led to the foundation contacting and employing Tim in 2011.

Dr. Sceptre was first taken to Site 81, and two years after moved to site 17.

Tim eventually worked his way up the ranks to be an HR for the next 5 years, (also passing through his divorce), where he reached the position of Area Research Chief in 2018.

''There has been found evidence that in between this years, Tim was E-classed for around a month. It is speculated it was around the time he created SCP-6740 and used it on himself. What happened in those weeks is classified.''
