Researched Backstory: As a child, Gingko always had been hurting himself. His friend, that no one else seemed to see, would always tell him what to do, to get him hurt. Gingko knew he was different. He could fall off the top bunk bed, and not feel a thing. His parents took him in and they diagnosed him with Congenital Analgesia, congenital insensitivity to pain. Gink could not feel, and has never felt, physical pain. Later, in his teenage years, he was constantly caught talking to someone that isn’t there. Gingko got suspended from junior high, and high school many times for attempting to fight other students making fun of his close friend. His parents took him to a psychiatrist. She diagnosed him with Capgras syndrome. Gingko held a delusion that this friend was around him, and was ‘real’, when he actually wasn’t. Many times, adding onto not feeling pain, Gingko got random numbness, blindness, paralysis, and had fits, without a legitimate cause or ‘click’ to make anything happened. Ginkgo got sick of his parents always thinking there was something wrong with him. He got tired of it. At the age of 18, Gingko murdered his family. His mother, his father, his sister, and his younger brother, all of them were beat brutally. Gingko moved from jail to jail, beating more people that began to fight with him. After years of this continuous problem, they finally sent Gingko to Athens in Ward 1.
Other notes on patient: He is sadistic. He will take pleasure in beating someone, or hurting them emotionally.
