**PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION: SUBJECT ZERO & IDENTITY DISCOVERY**
**CLASSIFICATION:** RESTRICTED
**DATE:** May 16, 2026
**SUBJECT:** Specialist "Luca" (A-992-L)
**EVALUATOR:** Dr. Elena Vance
***
### **I. EXPOSURE TO "SUBJECT ZERO" DATA**
Specialist Luca viewed the recovered footage from the "Wanderer" (Subject Zero). The footage depicted a young man, approx. 19-20 years old, terrified and alone in the Complex.
### **II. THE AGE HYPOTHESIS**
Watching the footage triggered a contemplative response in Luca. While he possesses no episodic memory of his life before the merge, his emotional resonance with the subject was notable.
* **Luca's Observation:** *"He didn't know what to do. He looks... like I feel sometimes. Like he hasn't figured out how the world works yet."*
### **III. CLINICAL ESTIMATION**
Based on Luca's behavioral patterns, cultural references, and "Blank Slate" social adaptability, the Psych Team theorizes that his human chronological age at the time of the merge was likely **Late Adolescence / Early 20s**.
* **The "Experience Gap":** Unlike Wulfsige, who retains the tactical wisdom of a man in his 30s, Luca often looks to Wulfsige for guidance on *life*, not just combat. He is learning how to be an adult at the same time he is learning how to be a Hybrid.
### **IV. CONCLUSION**
Luca functions with the maturity of a professional soldier, but his internal landscape is that of a young man seeking his place in the world. Wulfsige’s mentorship provides the necessary structure for him to develop that identity safely.
