Saxifrage Oh

"... in a secret experiment gone awry, a hundred lab rats that had been injected with an intelligence booster became geniuses. They revolted, escaped from their cages, captured their principal investigator, and strapped him down and retro-injected all their minds into his body, using a methode they invented on the spot - and that scientist was Saxifrage Oh, white-coated, blinking, twitching, inquisitive, lab-bound. His brain the sum of a hundred hyperintelligent rats and named for a flower like lab rats are, its their little joke, see?"
