Origin

Eugene Ego grew up in Pasadena, CA in a big house. His father was an infamous plastic surgeon having honed his unique skills on the battlefields of WWII. Not only did he teach those skills to his son, but he taught him to push the boundaries of medical science. Despite being expelled from the most prestigious schools for his excessiveness, he earned a degree and a license. He started a successful practice in Hollywood, but in 1997, his practice was threatened by multiple medical malpractice lawsuits. Scorekeeper offered him a chance to get out from under it by becoming a resident of Hyde Street. There he runs a clinic, where he can continue to hone his skills while delivering souls, occasionally doing "pro bono" work, allowing the more tragic cases to escape delivery on Hyde Street.
