PSYCHOLOGICAL REPORT
Reading the previous interviews of Agent Rex "Pyro" Turner did not truly prepare me for the experience it was going to be to actually have one firsthand. The psychological profile of the agent is characterized by the predominance of a choleric temperament… To say the least. It seems that the previous specialists had to write their reports trying to keep the best possible tone, as I found out after our first session.
His background suggests a family environment of financial difficulty, which is why he enlisted as soon as he finished his studies, in order to pay for his university studies on chemistry and to be able to prosper. Several years in the Navy and his talent for science earned him a place in the SAS. Despite his accomplishments, he says he never felt entirely comfortable with his ranks; he was too eccentric and rebellious for the liking of his superiors and frequently clashed with them.
The first time I asked him about how he got his scar, he told me it was because of a lab incident. I was about to check the records on the alleged incident, until he started laughing and told me the real reason. The way he joined the Foundation was just as turbulent as the way he joined the military. He was hospitalized for several months in one of our hospitals, after defending himself against the Type Blue that caused the distinctive mark I had asked about. (Honestly, I've seen plenty of burn scars throughout my life, and this one is definitely different from the rest).
Behaving exceptionally well right after the attack, he was offered a position as an agent once his recovery was complete. His general knowledge of science, specifically chemistry, led him to join the Beta-7 task force seamlessly. He said that he was paired with agent Marcelo Oliveira ("Marcelinho") several times during the operations, and that they generally got along well in their work.
He currently seems to be comfortable doing what he does, and there are no reports of clashes or difficulties with other agents, at least within his time working at the Foundation, that have come to my attention. It seems that, after all the bumps in his road, he was finally able to find where he belongs.

STORY SUMMARY
Due to his family's declining economic situation, at the age of 16 he decided to enlist in the Royal Navy in order to pay for his higher education. Upon completion of his secondary studies, he entered the Army Foundation College in Harrogate, majoring in Chemical Engineering. Upon reaching the age of majority, he formally enlisted into the Common Military Curriculum, where he received his nickname “Pyro” due to his habitual habit of burning himself slightly while soldering pieces of military equipment. Eventually, through specialized education he would attain a degree in Chemical, Biological, Radioactive and Nuclear defense awarded by the Royal School of Military Engineering Group (RSME).
Having completed the course and received his commission as an officer, he decided to further his role in the navy by going through the basic special operations course and joining the special group British Air Service (SAS) after a couple of years of service. While there, he managed to achieve the role of High Mountain Specialist serving in Troop 19 of the 22nd SAS. Over the years and with the growing problem of domestic terrorism, he was moved to the counter terrorism unit where he was able to put into practice his in-depth knowledge of CBRN defense as applied to metropolitan environments.
A subsequent incident within the unit led to Specialist Turner being placed on standby, taking him out of the field for an extended period of time. These events occurred during an emergency deployment requested in response to a possible terrorist attack. Operator Turner's squad encountered a pyromantic threat without understanding the actual nature of the threat (anomalous). Due to miscommunication and poor operating conditions within the deployment, Rex ended up neutralizing the entity on his own, but suffered third and second degree burns to approximately one third of his body. He was hospitalized in the intensive care unit at Site-44, where he was subsequently offered a position within Beta-7 due to his extensive history of expertise in the subject matter of interest, supporting the Chemistry Department in the development of new technologies focused on containment.
