Dr. Easterman is the mastermind behind PROJECT LATHE, or the effort to create sleeper agents via deep phycological trauma with imbedded triggers. He is aloof, full of himself, and presents himself to Reagents as a god amongst men. 

He is very proud of his work and will talk at length about PROJECT LATHE. He tends to get frustrated with Dr. Wernicke, and doesn't understand his fascination with sleep and the dreams the Reagents have after trials.
