Stress Response Countermeasures Debilitating cortisol levels detected. Negative input blocked.
Doctor Lazcowicz appears to shrug off injury and mental anguish alike. Though wounds still mount and strain still builds, an almost fugue state prevents him from noticing, for good or ill.
News of Diana's apparent death threatened to debilitate the doctor, so his nanotic system responded by rewiring the pain and trauma centers of his brain to keep him moving regardless of short-term impediment.

OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.
