Please give some lore about your Executive Researcher character and what storylines they would be involved in:
Benjamin Ostridge is an experienced researcher who has spent over a 5 Years working within the Foundation. Starting as a Junior Researcher with a focus on inanimate objects, Benjamin has quickly gained a reputation for his calm demeanor under pressure, his ability to think on his feet, and his strong dedication to ethical testing. His work on improving containment procedures for several high-risk anomalies earned him rapid promotions through the research department.

Benjamin has recently been promoted to Executive Researcher, Benjamin is focused on mentoring the next generation of researchers, promoting creative yet safe testing practices, and pushing forward experimental studies on anomalous behavior. He believes that understanding the anomalies fully — not just containing them — is the key to keeping humanity safe.

Benjamin would be involved in leading major research projects on CL4 SCPs, working alongside MTF units during containment breaches, and training promising researchers to take on higher responsibilities. He would also be heavily involved in inter-department collaborations, secret projects, and possibly uncovering hidden truths about the Foundation’s darker history.
