Wilhelm Voigt

Doktor was a member of Raiden's support team within the PMC Maverick Security Consulting, Inc.

Biography
Doktor was originally a scientist from what was then Communist-occupied East Germany, and often pursued several methods of science. As such, he spent so much time working that he occasionally slept at his desk. However, after the Berlin Wall fell, he was left without a job as his facility was shut down. His theories on myoelectric prosthetics were also the only reason he wasn't left as a homeless vagrant, as he often claimed. Eventually, deciding to put his knowledge of robotics and engineering to good use, he got a prosthetics laboratory at Dortmund to hire him. His knowledge on the subject revolutionized the concept of prosthetics, and he eventually found himself the head of his own lab. Eventually, he got contracts from PMCs to aid in prosthetic-related surgeries.

Doktor was eventually called in by Maverick in 2018 to aid in supplying Raiden with a new body, as their original surgeon had gone into hiding. He was initially bewildered, as he had not done a full-on body reconstruction before, although his surgery on Raiden resulted in him mastering the concept of both partial and full-body cyborgification. During Raiden's missions for Maverick, he gave Raiden some details on cyborgs and cybernetics in general. He also requested that he retrieve any cyborg soldiers that he defeats' left hands, as they contain valuable data on them. After Raiden defeated the LQ-84I, he had Doktor repair the unmanned weapon as well as remove the remote-control and AI wipe from its system.

Behind the scenes
Doktor first spoke during the 2011 VGA trailer, although his Russian-sounding accent resulted in speculation that he could br Dr. Madnar, another character who had asisted Raiden with his cybernetics in previous games. Doktor was later mentioned a few times by several characters, the pronunciation also implying that he was German in origin. He eventually appeared in the flesh in the demo for Metal Gear Rising, where his line delivery was reworked to make his German accent more apparent.
