Cortexa is a brain stimulant medication in Manhunt 2.
Description[]
Cortexa is a drug invented by Dr. Daniel Lamb at some point before 2001, while working as a scientist for the government-sponsored Pickman Project program conducted by The Project in the city of Cottonmouth. It is not intended for commercialization, thus the Project never made it available on the market.
After the Pickman Bridge incident in 2006, in which the personality of deceased government assassin Leo Kasper has been implanted into the drug's inventor Daniel Lamb, who have previously volunteered for the experiment. The implant malfunctioned during the experiment, causing Daniel to suffer from dissociative identity disorder, resulting in him being able to directly communicate with the implanted personality of Leo Kasper, who would be taking over Daniel's mind.
In the same night of the experiment, Daniel Lamb goes in a killing spree across town while under control of Leo Kasper, eliminating various people linked to The Project, including mercenaries, Daniel's friend and scientist Michael Grant, one of the Project's officials Stanley Grex, and in the end, Daniel's own wife in order to make him guilty and take full control of his mind.
After the capture of Daniel by the Project, Cortexa is used by Project doctors Deborah and Laura Whyte to interrogate both Daniel and Leo during sessions at the Dixmor Hospital for the Criminally Insane, in which Leo's personality refuses to reveal the reason why he killed Daniel's wife, although subtly revealing his real intentions.
