The Masked Killer

The Masked Killer

Lochlan Murphy AKA The Masked Killer was the first person to use the Venom Virus to kill random people.

Backstory
At the beginning of SE1 EP9 we see Lochlan working on the mysterious island. He found the only vile of a virus called Venom and injected himself with it. It horribly mutated him. Miss Silvia finds him, and she was very angry because Lochlan used the only successful sample of Venom. Lochlan knocked Miss Silvia unconscious and steals the unsuccessful samples of Venom. After escaping the island and arriving at Cyrus City, he used a Gas Mask and a hood to hide his disfigurement. He also used the samples of Venom that didn't work as a weapon. Venom drove him insane, so he found random people and sprayed them with the gas. This put them into a catatonic state. He then proceeded to completely disembowel them, leaving a disgusting suit of skin. He would eat the inside of his victims, but he left one man alive, just to see what would happen, and sure enough, when Diego Horowitz found the man, he flew into an uncontrollable rage before suddenly decomposing. Eventually Diego tracked Lochlan down. Lochlan attacked Diego, and Diego shot him directly in the lense of his gas mask, killing him instantly. At the end of the episode Stryker enters the morgue and takes sample of Lochlan's blood, the last remaining sample of successful Venom...
