Stalker

A young, dark haired man who was taken to Hell after solving the Lemarchand Configuration. He was tortured by the Cenobites but desired to become one of them. He offered to tell Master his story to prove his worth. He was a Stalker who searched for victims on the subway, followed them, and attacked them on the streets. He enacted "every nightmare they had ever dreamed" on his victims before suddenly stopping. He would take their identification and promise to return later. He then stalked them, sent them mail and phoned them, "drank their torment and anguish". Their terror made the Stalker happy and he took photographs of them for his collection. He drove some of them to suicide, the rest were mentally broken. Eventually he felt ready to solve the lemarchand Configuration and was taken to Hell.
