Unless his body is an easter egg to find in Rise, I'd put money on him being alive. His character just has much more potential towards the story in any sequel or further expansion if he's living.

>Dr. Derek Manse reporting, Research Director, GATE Cascade Research Facility.
>We have received several complaints about a GATE staff member from Manufacturing having inappropriate behaviour in the bathroom.
>According to the reports, the man will simply just walk in on his coworkers during, er... their private business, and just stand there, watching.
>Despite their best attempts, GATE security have been unable to catch this man, so if anyone have any information, please come see me in my office.
>I do NOT want to have to explain myself to Keystone HR department a third time.

>For some reasons I'm still unclear about, Keystone decided to outsource most of our containment duty to India, most likely to cut on cost.
>I was unsurprised then, to find out that containment procedures have been completely overlooked or outright ignored.
>IS-0102 was left in the open, infecting several thousands people, and an small piece of IS-0154 was used as a paperweight in some dubious [REDACTED] call center.
>But what I found particularly more damning, is that their careleness seemed to have undeniably damaged or otherwise destroyed some of those anomalies, potentially permanently.
>For instance, IS-0013 is now filled with cow dung, IS-0223 was sexually assaulted repeatedly, IS-1057 is now brown, IS-0083 no longer work after being dumped in the Ganges, IS-0138 is now suffering from an overcrowding problem, and more.
>This cannot be allowed to continue, I will send a strongly worded letter to Keystone about this in the coming days.

Dr. Derek Manse reporting, Research Director, GATE Cascade Research Facility.
For some reasons I'm still unclear about, Keystone decided to outsource most of our containment duty to India, most likely to cut on cost.
I was unsurprised then, to find out that containment procedures have been completely overlooked or outright ignored.
IS-0102 was left in the open, infecting several thousands people, and an small piece of IS-0154 was used as a paperweight in some dubious [REDACTED] call center.
But what I found particularly more damning, is that their careleness seemed to have undeniably damaged or otherwise destroyed some of those anomalies, potentially permanently.
For instance, IS-0013 is now filled with cow dung, IS-0223 was sexually assaulted repeatedly, IS-1057 is now brown, IS-0083 no longer work after being dumped in the Ganges, IS-0138 is now suffering from an overcrowding problem, and more.
This cannot be allowed to continue, I will send a strongly worded letter to Keystone about this in the coming days.

>Dr. Derek Manse reporting, Research Director, GATE Cascade Research Facility.
>We first encoutered IS-4199 during a company retreat in Memphis, USA, when an instance of IS-4199 made contact with Dr. Tang, demanding something from him in an incomprehensible language, and when Dr.Tang was unable to comply, the instance of IS-4199 became highly aggressive and had to be neutralized, it was a miracle Dr.Tang manage to came out of it alive.
>Those creatures surprisingly mimic human behavior, albeit vaguely. Instances of IS-4199 lives in group, almost like families of some kind, they sometime wear clothes and are able to use crude tools, if only as weapons, and seem to feed on large doses of opoids and junk food.
>Upon returning to Cascade, I attempted to communicate our new findings with Dr.Jager, but to my surprise, it became clear that multiple instances of IS-4199 have not only breached the facility, but started impersonating the staff.
>Finding those impersonators turned out to be less tricky than anticipated however, as beside their very obvious physical appearance, Dr. Cahn managed to come up with a trigger word which, when repeated at regular interval at a high enough volume, causes all instances of IS-4199 to become highly aggressive.
