Background: Strauss was born and raised in the institute. During his early childhood he developed a fascination with the earlier synthetic models believing that the mechanical form was in many ways superior to the biological one. After securing enough support from the institute he was given the funds and equipment to beging his own research into cybernetics. Responsible for the early work that would later be used for research into the implants, implanted into Institute agents, Strauss believed this to be a mere first step. The Institute believed that research was a something to be allowed without many ethical consequences until Strauss did something few others dared, Self-Experimentation. Believing Synths to be lacking as test subjects and other scientist much to pridefull, Strauss returned to the one subject he considered prime, himself.

Strauss first experiments were deliberate in attempts to fix his own body, feigning an incident and then proceding to "Fix" himself. As time went on Strauss began to see people suspecting him of crossing lines they thought uncrossable, eventually a young lad snuck into Strauss facilities to espionage some of his research, triggering a defense system the young man was left in a mortal state without any means of survival. Strauss wasn't blamed for the inciddent but later the mans body was taken, Strauss used the dying man to try experiments that would be two obvious on Synths or Himself. Eventually after rumors and speculation of what Strauss did to the body which was never rediscovered, Strauss was Exiled from the institute. Continuing his research without luck due to the lack of advance equipment, Strauss began on creating more rudimentary creations, including his mechanical hounds. Now Strauss is in the Royal Wasteland hoping to gather assets from the General Atomic headquarters and factories in the area.
