Description
Catherine Ward, known as Cathy, stands at 174 cm (5'8") tall with her thigh-high high-heeled boots, or 166 cm (5'5") without them. She has pale skin, naturally wavy shoulder-length blonde hair featuring pink-dyed tips, and green eyes accentuated by long eyelashes and dark red lipstick. Her attire mimics a prison warden's uniform: a black short-sleeved blazer with puff sleeves, a matching mini skirt with a side slit, a white button-up shirt, a red tie, and the signature boots. She always wears red gloves, a ring over the glove on her right index finger, and carries a small red riding crop.
Cathy exhibits a personality marked by sadism, eccentricity, and expressiveness. She calls herself "The Condemner," deriving pleasure from punishing those she judges as "sinners" through elaborate, lethal games. Observing victims succumb or survive fascinates her, with survivors earning particular interest. Her extroverted and theatrical nature shows when addressing targets like Zack and Ray as "my lovely sinners," prompting Zack to label her a "sadist-masochist."
Her background began in a prestigious high school where she enjoyed popularity until her parents—doctors killed by aggrieved family members over medical errors—died. Her social standing collapsed, and classmates bullied her, calling her "disgusting" and vandalizing her locker. Throughout this, Lucy, a devoted admirer who idolized Cathy's perceived perfection and composure, remained loyal. Lucy intervened when bullies planned to throw acid on Cathy, escalating her protective devotion. Lucy later pushed a primary bully onto train tracks, killing her, cementing their partnership in punishing "sinners."
After high school, Cathy and Lucy became prison guards. Acting as "condemners," they tortured and executed inmates deemed guilty, often in isolated cells or underground rooms without surveillance. Their actions traumatized prisoners; one described unceasing screams during counseling. Abraham Gray eventually invited Cathy to join his underground facility as one of his "Angels." Accepting, she executed Lucy as her final prison act, condemning her for excessive killings, making Lucy Cathy's first murder victim.
As master of Floor B3 in Gray's facility, Cathy enforced a "criminal procedure" requiring intruders to survive deadly trials. When Zack and Ray arrived, she subjected them to sequential traps: an electric chair activated while Ray solved its mechanism; a gas chamber with one mask and a five-minute limit; and a syringe challenge involving potentially lethal injections. Zack injected both syringes, triggering a violent episode. In the final confrontation, Cathy offered Ray an unloaded gun to fight Zack, promising "better punishment" for the survivor. When both refused and Zack simulated suicide, Cathy emerged from behind bulletproof glass, enraged by their defiance. Ray shot her, and Zack severed her hand holding a Gatling gun remote. Defenseless, Cathy was killed by Zack.
Posthumously, Cathy appeared as a hallucination when Ray returned to B3 with Gray. She taunted Ray about slaughtering prisoners and later testified as an apparition in Gray's trial. Accusing Ray of manipulating Zack to lure her out of safety, she demanded Ray be sentenced to drowning. Gray dismissed her testimony after Ray showed indifference to the torture.
Cathy's relationships reflect her worldview. She expressed fascination with Zack, considering him the "perfect embodiment" of a sinner, displaying a doting, almost romantic interest he found repellent. Toward Ray, she initially adopted light-heartedness due to Ray's age, but this turned hostile after Ray shot her. Her dynamic with Edward Mason (Eddie) suggested animosity. Her modus operandi consistently involved torturing prisoners in camera-blind spots or customized chambers, utilizing tools to inflict prolonged suffering.
