The hidden experimental laboratory, Subitus Nocens Inc., is named after the founder, Frank Nocens.
-----
Frank Nocens, the founder of Subitus Nocens Incorporated, was a highly intelligent man and scientist, with a fascination of exploring the unknown. His fascination led him to establish S.N. Inc., to explore the peculiar outcomes of absurd phenomena around the world. His later experiments, formally known as ragdolls, went even further into the unknown, exploring the possibilities of improving humans in any way. The ones with the same intelligence, mindset and/or perception of what this world was capable of, like himself, he let be a part of his vision - with encreasingly strict rules to follow developing over time, as Nocens got reminded, time and time again, of how filthy humanity was, hence his desire to improve it, in his own twisted way.
Frank Nocens was a mystery of a man. While his first name meant 'free man', his surname meant 'depraved'.
Subitus, of which meant sudden or unexpected in Latin, paired with Frank's surname became the laboratory's name, which, in translation from Latin, would be Unexpected Depravity Incorporated. Or, more commonly known as today, as the unexpected and morally corrupt laboratory.

Three years.
It had been three years since he'd been taken, experimented on, had his DNA altered and became a freak of nature. He knew because he'd managed to peek at the computer when they dragged him into that dreaded room; the one they used to prod, poke and inject him with god-knows-what. He was considered their only success - meaning their illegal tests hadn't killed him or rendered him paralysed, or worse; brain dead.
He was subject 254. And he was the only survivor.
At least until she - subject 391 - moved into the cell next door.
