Ferox
Last updated 2026-08-25
Ferox is a commission-exclusive NPC and former co-CEO of Porcelumex with Lucro.
Profile
Ferox is a shrewd businessman who did not shy away from using human experimentation on orphans taken from the streets in order to improve his Porcelume products, and later from collaborating with the Exaltists, to whom he guaranteed protection, funding and freedom of research on Sacrifices as long as he received their advanced tech in return.[3]
History
Due to bottlenecks in the Porcelume purification process, Porcelumex started researching purification techniques. Behind his co-CEO's back, Ferox turned to unethical means, founding the secret "Project New Leaf" and kidnapping more than a dozen orphans living on the streets and using them to obtain suitable catalysts from their Corruption antibodies.[3] The experiments and the Hollow environment the lab was situated in took the lives of almost all children, with the exception of ES-07, who was saved thanks to Lionel Thymefield finding her asleep in a vent and realizing the dark truth behind the lab he had just visited, and sacrificing himself to let her escape.[3]
With ES-07's escape, Project New Leaf went bankrupt, and Ferox turned to the Exaltists to continue his experiments, with Mevorakh, then simply an Exaltist official who had just relocated Landon's followers to Waifei Peninsula, signing a partnership with him for Porcelumex funding in exchange of Exaltist tech obtained from Sacrifice research. After ascending to the position of Overseer, Mevorakh rejected Ferox's proposal to continue human experimentation on unwilling subjects, considered against The Creator's will.[3]
