ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion

Edmund Rockwell, a chemist from the 1800s. Reborn on the arks, survival was not his interest. Instead, he wanted to know everything about this world. He partnered with the reborn Roman general Gaius Nerva, who both could care less about human lives. Nerva wanted to be the king and emperor of the ark, and Edmund wanted to know everything about it and so they started a partnership. Edmund would meet Helena and they would become quite close over their shared fascination of the arks. However, Helena’s morality would put a rift between them. After Helena and Mei Ling had returned from fighting the megapithecus, Edmund and Nerva led a battle against them, causing Helena’s giga to berserk, killing nearly everyone and everything. Helena was taken as a hostage by Nerva and Rockwell. She would be dragged through the overseer cave and into the battle, but left behind and unconscious as the battle started. Rockwell would survive, but Mei Ling would kill Nerva and interrupt the ascension process, sending herself and Nerva to aberration, and Rockwell to Scorched Earth. After Helena woke up and went to Scorched Earth, her and Rockwell had a tenuous alliance to survive and escape this ark, which they did, bringing them to aberration. On this ark, Rockwell was fascinated by the technology from the future that aberatiion’s inhabitants came from. He started his experiments with “Edmundium” (element) and in secret used it on people, mutating and transforming them into the nameless that wanted the dark. In the end, Rockwell went mad, and used edmundium on himself, becoming a monstrous entity that resides in the deepest depths of this broken ark, forever longing for revenge or death. That is, until you arrive on this ark, survivor.
