Steve (Outlast)

"No. I don't need another performance evaluation. Mr. Park here is gonna have us up and running before we even know it. Right, Mr. Park?"

- Steve questioning Waylon Park's software engineering capabilities.

Steve is one of the scientists who works for the Murkoff Corporation in Mount Massive Asylum and a minor antagonist who appears in Outlast's DLC expansion, Outlast: Whistleblower.

Appearance
Like most of the scientists, due to the constant experimentation, Steve wears a hazmat suit in order to protect himself from dangerous chemicals.

Story
Steve is seen in the beginning of the game at the front terminal, impatiently awaiting Waylon Park's arrival to the Morphogenic Engine Room. When Waylon arrives, Steve asks of him to establish visual connection with one of the glass spheres. While doing so, the science division brings one of their test subjects, who manages to escape the guards grip and runs towards reinforced glass, frightening Waylon and begging him for help. After the inmate was forced into the pod, Steve manages to calm Waylon down and tells him to proceed with his work. Waylon establishes the connection and is asked by Steve to vacate the premises, saying that he should expect nothing but honesty in his performance review.

Steve is not seen ever since, and his fate remains unknown. It is presumed that he was either killed by The Variants or by The Walrider, during the outbreak.
