Events of Amnesia: Rebirth[]
Robert Sterling was one of the main backers of the expedition to the French Sudan, and is occasionally referenced in notes found.[4][2] Hank Mitchell mentioned that Sterling pushed for the hiring of a European physician, something that Hank felt was unnecessary, due to the trip being relatively short and safe by his standards. Sterling was undeterred however, and hired Dr. Anton Metzier to serve as the expedition’s physician.[4]
Sterling’s stubbornness seemed to stem from a mistrust of the local Sudanese, specifically in the case something harmful befell the expedition, which included his son Alex—possibly due to prejudice.[1]
