Bob

Bob is the leader of the Damned.

Many years ago, Bob came looking for employment and found Sophia Leigh's cosmetics company to work as a lab assistant. During his employment under Sophia, Bob was experimented on along with many other people. They were locked in floatation tanks for days until they were released to find that their facial features had been distorted. They were dumped in the sewers and an abandoned station called Aldwych. Bob tried to commit suicide but found that he could not kill himself. Not only had their facial features been distorted but they had been made immortal too. Bob became the leader of the Damned.

After an encounter with Lara, Bob tells his story and says he will help her to get to Sophia if she gets him a bottle of Embalming Fluid from the Museum of Natural History, He is afraid to go himself because of one of Sophia's other experiments was extremely displeased by her immortality.

Lara agrees and when she returns with the fluid and places it on the offering stone, Bob's main door opens giving her a route to get to Sophia
