Appearance Dr. Bishop doesn’t appear to be the type of man who would be a doctor at all. He is often unkempt, unshaven, in wrinkled clothes he more often than not forgets to change from day to day. He has a tendency to dress down for work, t-shirts beneath suit jackets and occasionally rumpled button down oxford shirts. He does have a lab coat but he has a tendency to leave it places so he doesn’t often wear it.

Despite his young age, Dr. Bishop appears at least ten years older than he actually is courtesy of his ability.


Psychic Ability Psychic Healing


Expanded abilities Dr. Bishop is some what of a psychic healing savant. He was never formally educated as schools like Zener didn’t exist when his particular talents bourgeoned. His is a very seasoned healer, as highly trained as any norm specialist and can perform simple healings to the most delicate surgeries. The way that animal communicators talk with animals, Dr. Bishop brags he can communicate with human cells and DNA.


Limitations Dr. Bishop’s ability takes an odd toll on the man. The more serious or extensive an injury is, the greater the effect he must bear. With every wound repaired, injury mended, and hurt erased, he looses a little bit of his own health. Thus, his body has aged and deteriorated quicker than it should have.


Personality Being self trained and good at his job, perhaps even the best in his field, Dr. Bishop has a bit of an ego problem. Everyone else is an idiot compared to him, and not just about medicine and research. Speaking of research, he’s dedicated to his work. Being a psychic himself, he’s always been heavily involved in studying them, even when his work got him laughed at by his peers. But what other people think never really meant that much to him because of thea fore mentioned point – they’re all idiots anyway.

Besides his work, Dr. Bishop likes music. He knows how to play the piano and the guitar and enjoys classic rock.

He is extremely open about his opinions of others and isn’t the type of person to pussy foot around subjects no matter how uncomfortable or the kind of consequences that may result from his frankness.

He is not above using illegal, heinous, and morally reprehensible things in order to get the answers to his questions and for his research. The idea of informed consent means nothing to him and he often experiments on his patients and people without their knowledge.


Strengths His psychic ability, can handle gore with relative ease.

Weaknesses His physical body reacts badly to his power often leaving him sick and weak after performing, can become so absorbed in what he’s doing he fails to notice what’s going on around him.


Likes Books, foreign languages, music, the piano, the guitar, pretty girls, scotch, strip clubs

Dislikes authority, being told what to do, most people (although he is sociable), things that interfere with his research


History Stanley Bishop was the only child of Elaine and Prescott Bishop. Prescott was a military man and Stanley grew up moving from base to base following his father wherever the US Government sent him. Stanley was always a well behaved boy but he got the distinct impression he was never good enough for his father, mostly on account of the fact that even from a young age, his body wasn’t as strong as those of his peers. Growing up, he was often sickly and suffered various illnesses. If there was a disease or a cold or a flu to be caught, Stanley got it, almost as if sickness was attracted to him. His father, who valued physical and mental strength above all us was often frustrated by his son’s ever changing medical conditions but mostly frustrated at his own inability to do anything about it.

Stanley’s ability was the kind of thing that was just always around, it was what attracted the various diseases he suffered and what cured them. He always kept this to himself once he realized what was going on and wisely used his power to his own advantage, studying and honing his skills with an obsession that would later control his entire life.

After high school, he enrolled in medical school. In his previous educational adventures, Stanley had managed passable marks, just barely high enough to grant him access into a medical school program after graduation but once he settled into his desired field of study, he astounded everyone with his capabilities. Of course it was easy to maneuver ones way through the human body when you’d already been doing it for eighteen years.

Stanley thus graduated Suma Cum Laude three semesters earlier than he was supposed to. Because of his father’s ties to the military, Stanley easily fell into an occupation with the CIA. It was from that department where he was scouted by Project Stargate and transferred to that department.

For Stargate and Mr. Smith, Stanley was given a hefty grant with which to conduct his own personal research while completing similar studies and offering his medical expertise to Stargate Operatives for the program. It was during his work with Project Stargate that Stanley really began to notice the effect his ability had on his own body as the work the project demanded from him was often extremely heavy and taxing.

The focus of his research now splits between trying to stop the adverse effect his power is having on his own body if not reversing the damage already incurred as well as developing techniques, drugs, and devices for restraining and nullifying psychics as well as pinpointing and mapping the specific genetic anomalies in the DNA of psychics to determine what exactly makes them what they are (both psychics and power specifics as well).
