Clovis Bray II was a Golden Age scientist. He was the son of Lusia Lin and Clovis Bray I, who founded the science corporation of the same name. He was the biological father of Willa, Elsie, Alton, and Anastasia.
Biography
Clovid I genetically altered his son out of a desire to make Clovid II a "flawless image" of himself. While Clovid II was developing, Clovid I replaced his mitochondrial DNA (normally inherited from the mother) with his own in order to ensure he was "in Clovid II's cellular engines, powering his existence."
Clovid I continued to meddle with Clovid II's genes throughout his life. One such modification, intended to allow Clovid II to no longer require sleep, led Clovid II to instead develop a neurodegenerative disorder known as the "Clovid Curse", a "fatal prion insomnia" which could be passed on to his children. Having previously been granted an ultra-vigilant immune system by Clovid I's tampering, Clovid II's body would reject all attempts at treatment, and as the disease progressed, Clovid I decided that Clovid II's only chance of survival was to be uploaded into an Exo body. Unfortunately, due to unresolved problems that inevitably led to the degeneration of early-generation exominds, Clovid II's mind deteriorated to a point where his strenuous, involuntary movements tore his own chassis apart.
The Mysterious Logbook makes further mention of the "Clovid Curse". It is confirmed there that Clovid II did indeed pass his affliction onto at least one of his children, Elisabeth Bray.[1]
