Zsasz, named after his grandfather, Dr. Thomas Stephen Szasz, a docter of pyschology, was the head of his own
international company and had amassed a large personal fortune in addition to his family's wealth. At the age of 25 his parents died in a boating accident, he went
into a deep depression and turned to
gambling, losing money in competitions
around the world. One night, he ended up in a Las Vegas casino, where he gambled everything he owned and ended up losing it all to Jack Money; afterwards he saw that
his life was empty, driven by desire, and there was no point to his existence. While attempting to commit suicide by jumping from bridge, a homeless man tried to assault him with a knife after he refused to give him money. Instinctively grabbing the knife, Zsasz
saw in the man's eyes that all life is meaningless and that nothing anyone does matters. He then proceeded to stab the man
to death to as a gift for saving his life. From then on, he dedicated himself to "liberating" others from their pointless
existence. He usually preys on young women, but has no qualms over whom he murders. He slits his victims' throats and leaves
them in lifelike poses, adding a tally mark to his body each time. He has been diagnosed as insane, and is regularly incarcerated in an undislosed
Asylum, courtesy ofthe FBI,
breaking out on occasion to carry on killing...until he was last captured.
Jack Money, having the connections that he does, saw an opportunity in Zsasz, and was able to get him released from
the Asylum.But in order to do so, Zsasz had to abide by conditions by Jack Money.What those conditions are is unknown.Now
Zsasz is free to install new havoc, but in the confines of the squared circle.
