Bachelor

The Bachelor—Daniil Dankovsky (Даниил Данковский)—is one of three playable characters alongside the Haruspex and the Changeling.

Past
"Daniil Dankovsky, a Bachelor of Medicine, was brought here by circumstances most unfortunate. Dankovsky's lifework, his theory challenging the existing notions of human mortality, is being harshly persecuted by the Powers That Be. Suddenly a letter arrives from a colleague, suggesting that there is previously undiscovered evidence which may support Dankovsky's claims. There is a settlement, the letter says, ruled by an extraordinary man who may well be seen as objective proof of Dankovsky's daring hypothesis. Grasping as straws of hope, Dankovsky decides to follow what he believes to be a sign of divine providence. Without further ado, he sets off for the settlement."

- "The Invisible Enemy" Route Introduction

After earning a degree in medicine, Dankovsky founded the infamous Thanatica— a laboratory, where he and a closed circle of his associates researched death itself and possible ways to cure it. It is mentioned that in his past, he once met Aglaya Lilich during a presentation where he reanimated dead tissue, and briefly attended the same university as Andrey Stamatin.

From his colleague and a correspondent, Isidor Burakh, Dankovsky learns about a 150 year old named Simon Kain, who seems to have achieved immortality. Dankovsky makes his way to the Town-on-Gorkhon, to meet the old man and verify his age—and in doing so, save his laboratory from interference from the Powers That Be. He arrives in the Town by train and stays at the Stillwater, Eva Yan's house.

Abilities
The main feature of the Bachelor is a "Sighting Device", which allows him to detect contagious clouds of the Plague at a great distance in order to avoid them.

The Bachelor starts the game with a pair of Medical Gloves and a Scalpel in his inventory.

Goals
The initial objective of Daniil is to save his Thanatica, seeking to uncover the secret of immortality and later, he seeks to vanquish the plague and preserve the Polyhedron.

The Bachelor is an adherent of logic and knowledge. He relies upon cold reason, not letting superstitions and the incompetence of others interfere in his work.
