“When mystic energy awoke on Earth, the world changed... anything was possible. But just because anything WAS possible, didn’t mean that anything SHOULD be possible. And so the government made rules. Laws. A means for US citizens to enjoy the benefits of the supernatural world in safety. But rules and laws are for lesser men. Men with limitations. Men who were not Seven.
There are many rumors about what Seven did to land himself in Lost Whisper, an oubliette for the most dangerous of occultists. But there is no doubt about what happened on the night of his execution.
Wards placed by the most powerful ritualists of 7 different nations… wards designed to not just prevent mystical interference with the execution, but to simultaneously obliterate Seven's soul so that it could never be contacted, resurrected, or otherwise be used by someone looking to follow in his footsteps... failed.
Onlookers viewed in horror as the strongest mentalist employed by the US Army’s head popped like a grape. They screamed as Scotland Yard’s premiere occult investigator, the one who allegedly captured Seven, crumbled to ash. Seven's body buckled and writhed against his restraints; his skin burning from eldritch electricity... and yet he would not die. He laughed.
He laughed as he tore himself free from his bondage.
He laughed as his captors cowered in fear.
He laughed as he massacred his tormentors.
He laughed as he tasted the fresh air that was denied to him for years.
And he laughed when he thought about what he was going to do once he reached New York City.
Seven's motive and wish in the ritual is to achieve "apotheosis,"[1] which means the glorification of a subject to divine level,[2] meaning that Seven wants to become a god, or gain godlike powers.[3][4] Seven believes he will become powerful enough for the Patrons to bow to him.[5]
Seven claims he was imprisoned in Lost Whisper because he "offended small-minded simpletons with fragile egos".[6] Seven implies getting caught and sent to Lost Whisper was part of his plan.[7] How Seven survived the botched execution is unknown, but he seems to have died in the process, which could mean he's undead.[8]
Seven says he doesn't like murder, rather, he is "indifferent" to it.[9] He does enjoy letting fear sink into his victims, however.[10]
Seven has done research on the Astral Gates, and he credits 
Professor Dynamo as an influence in his work.[11]
Seven mentions that he once loved someone.[12] According to the 
Archmother, Seven had a "destiny" which his lover tried to steal.[13]
On the run from the OSIC, Seven currently lives in New York's old subway tunnels. He tells 
Mo & Krill he has "particular needs" regarding the creation of new tunnels.[14][15]
Seven mentions that he had to "scurry with the rats since he was a child".[16]
Seven can speak the Ixian language.[17][18]
The New York Oracle reporter Allie Kincaid is writing a story on Seven.[19][20]
Kelvin for unknown reasons.[21][22][23] Kelvin thinks Seven "seems familiar".[24] Additionally, both Seven and Kelvin have an interest on researching Astral Gates.[11][25] When being healed by Kelvin, Seven is reminded of "old times".[26] Seven believes Kelvin has a bigger ego than 
Lash.[27]
Lady Geist says Ettrick "caused a scene" at one of Kelvin's fundraisers.[28] This is supported by one of Seven's lines to Kelvin that mirrors one of Kelvin's lines about Ettrick.[23][29] Kelvin pushed Ettrick away due to his "ambition", which aligns with Seven's ambition to achieve apotheosis.[30] Seven also believes that mentors "use the young to achieve glories they could not achieve on their own", possibly referring to Kelvin.[31]
Rem, Seven smells like "evil s'mores".[32] This contrasts Kelvin's scent of "nice s'mores."[33] Dynamo for wanting to "throw away" the "great gift" of his star form,[12] teases 
Infernus for "putting on a muzzle" and "wasting" his powers,[9][34] criticizes 
Celeste for masking her power at a sideshow,[35] and says 
McGinnis is "wasting her brilliance" working for Fairfax Industries.[36]
Paradox for a job.[38]
The Doorman isn't normal and wants to uncover his secrets.[39][40]
Graves that her mentor is using her to "live glories they could not achieve on their own".[41] He also warns Graves that the path she's on will eventually get her killed. Seven warns Graves because he "hates to see talent wasted".[42]Rem to stay away from anyone who mentions the OSIC, claiming that they won't help Rem get home.[43] Rem finds Seven scary.[44]
Haze for working alongside him and asks how soon will they start fighting each other once the ritual is over.[45][46] McGinnis offers help to remove Seven's headgear.[47] Paradox is aware of Seven's safehouse in the tunnels and threatens to reveal their location.[48]
Paige swears she won't let her brother turn out like Seven.[49]The Doorman thinks Seven is more delusional than Lash.[50]View the full update history: Seven/Update history

The Doorman's in-game voice line (Taunt Seven): "Seven, your ambition got you killed once, why haven’t you learned your lesson?"
Seven's in-game voice line (upgrade Static Charge): "It's important to let the fear sink in."
"I'm a fan of your work, Professor." - "I am... flattered and horrified in equal measure." - "Your research into the Astral Gates paved the way for my own. In my rare moments of doubt, sometimes I even wonder if I would have become the man I am were it not for you."
"I don't understand you, Professor. You've been bestowed a great gift, and you're willing to throw it all away for nothing." - "Easy words to say when you've never loved someone." - "No. Easy words to say when you have."
Archmother's in-game voice line (Seven start) - "First, your destiny was denied to you. Then your lover tried to steal it for themselves. But now, with the Archmother's help, it can finally be yours."
Mo & Krill's in-game voice line (killed Seven): "So that was the thing prowling our tunnels."

The Doorman's in-game voice line (taunt Kelvin): "You pushed away Ettrick for his ambitions, yet remained a slave to your own."

"Do your superiors know you're helping me?" - "We're not having this conversation." - "Aw, struck a nerve?"
