Plague Doctor

"So if I'm the monster, why not act like one?"

- Plague Doctor

Plague Doctor is an important character from the Cheatso Saga that debuts in the trilogy's second game, Plagued Fear. He is a mutated human bent on inflicting other humans with a strange disease. He is the main antagonist of the game he appears in.

Appearance
Plague Doctor is a tall human with gray skin. His head is covered by a hood that heavily obscures his face, leaving only his nose barely visible. The only visible skin is from his arms, which are his only uncovered bodyparts (aside from his face). The hood is connected to a cape with short black sleeves, which are tied around his neck. He wears a plain, white shirt with several bloodstains on it (it is unknown if it is his own blood or if it belongs to someone else). His hands are in the shape of claws, with his fingers colored red (it is also unknown if that is just their color or if it is blood). He wears long, black pants, and finally, dark gray boots.

Personality
Plague Doctor is a very mysterious person. He speaks in a soft whisper, and never elevates his voice tone. Despite showing a hatred against humanity, he treats and talks to others with respect, independent if they are an enemy or not, while also showing a polite way of speaking. Often times, Plague Doctor will pretend to surrender in order to bait potential victims into his range so that he can take advantage of them.

Rarely shown is that Plague Doctor dislikes himself and his actions. He shows remorse in causing other people to be plagued and often creating trouble because of it. When confronted by people who are mad about his actions, he does not retaliate and allows them to do what they have to do, which is usually to beat him up until he passes out (although he still cannot be killed).

Powers and Abilities
Plague Doctor has two simple yet very powerful abilities. The first is that the mixture of Black Death and radioactivity inside of his body has given him immortality. He cannot die due to natural causes and cannot be killed by others. He can, however, be knocked unconscious.

His second and yet more memorable power is the ability to transfer the Plague to someone by simply touching their forehead. Plagued people gain an increase to strength and durability and are brainwashed, forgetting about everything and everyone other than Plague Doctor and obeying him without questions nor hesitations. Those with the Plague can be cured by either drinking Roopin's antidote or having it be naturally removed from their body once Plague Doctor is knocked out.

Faults and Weaknesses
Plague Doctor himself is extremely fragile, despite his seemingly bulky physical shape and tall height. He has to rely on his Plagued army to fight other foes, and mostly depends on his bodyguard, Paranoia, to defend him. Unless there is an alive Plagued individual nearby, Plague Doctor is very weak, unable to cause any damage to his foes and going down with a few mere punches.

Trivia

 * Despite being known as Plague Doctor, he lacks the bird beak mask that most Plague Doctors use, instead leaving his face uncovered (although it is still obscured by his hood).
 * Alice has confirmed that Plague Doctor was inspired on SCP-049.
