Konstantin Brinkerhoff was a Wildermann shown in Big Feet. He is an identity doctor for Wesen that cannot control their inner creature selves. His form constantly ripples rather than fully morphs, because he has learned to control his inner Wildermann.
Brinkerhoff writes notes about the drug pump malfunctioning.
Brinkerhoff's preferred method for helping counter one's Woge was the "talking cure", encouraging Wesen to form support groups and share their concerns as therapy. Brinkerhoff published a book about the "inner man" just before experimenting with chemical therapeutic solutions.
Brinkerhoff's chemical therapeutic solution was made from herbs, spices, and trace amounts of steroids; all of these later confirmed by the Portland Police Department not to be illegal substances. The mixture was pumped subcutaneously into the back of the patient's neck, and its purpose was to inhibit neural signals known to promote a Woge.
Unfortunately, due to presumably lack of funds, Brinkerhoff wasn't able to conduct the necessary prelimiary tests on the drugs, resulting in him skipping a few medical protocols and went ahead at testing htem upon his willing test subjects. Tragically, Brinkerhoff's four test subjects (all of them Wildermänner, himself being the fourth) encountered the same withdrawal symptom when the level of medicine pumped into the body decreased: they would lapse in such a way that they could not woge back into human form.
Brinkerhoff realized this when he found out his first three subjects had all died from like incidents, and just as he was recording this information, the same happened to him as well, leading to his own rampage and demise. Brinkerhoff's other three test subjects had been Larry Mackenzie, Alan Evercroft, and Dan Murray. Reynaldo had been approached with the opportunity to test this therapy, but declined since he didn't support "cure-alls".
