So here is my take on Omen. Viper, and Sage lore.

1. Omen (Fred) and Viper (Dr. Sabine) could've worked togther before the "thing" happened and caused Omen to be what he is now.

2. Omen and Viper are pretty close. To which Viper calls Omen an "old friend".

3. What if Fred (Omen) is actually a shy, akward, nerdy before the first light (or before "the thing" that happened that made him a "shadow") and maybe Viper is really really protective of him because her personality is quite strong. This is based on the knitting Omen and well.. the bitchy Viper. lol

4. We know that Sabine (Viper) used to heal others

AND

5.Viper got secrets while Omen have truths. (based on their VC) "Don't die here, Sabine. I need your secrets."- omen "I wonder what's inside of their Omen. What truth is he keeping from ours?"- viper to enemy omen

Viper has secrets right?

Turns out that the word Viper does not only pertain to the snake BUT ALSO to a person who cannot be trusted or a spiteful back stabbing person. This can imply that in the past, Viper could've betrayed someone. (Perhaps she betrayed her old self who curse people and joined Kingdom, thus turning againts her oath as a doctor who saves lives and uses the knowledge to kill instead.)

VIPER HATES SAGE AND HERE IS A POSSIBLE REASON WHY

4. When the thing happened, They asked SAge for help but maybe there was hesitation on her part and she was not "strong enough to help them" that time. I picture Sage before the "the thing" happened as quite insecure especially with her gifts.

"This is what I trained for!" -Sage (she trained to be a soldier?? a healer?? or both. I believe she trained AFTER she failed VIper and OMen that's why she is pretty strict with herself? Like she commands almost everyone.

"I wasn't strong enough before... but now, now I am strong enough for us all!" and after training and getting her confidence she acknowledges that she can contribute a lot to the Valorant Protocol even to the point that she is Second in Command (Brimstone is the Leader)

"Sage, you're the only one who can keep us alive. Don't fail us now like you failed me then." -Viper to Ally Sage

[Last Kill] "That's payback Sage."-Viper to Enemy Sage

Speaking of the Valorant Protocol, note that Brimstone, Viper and Omen are the first 3 agents who joined the Protocol. I guess Viper and Omen joined for Omen's "healing" and for Viper to avenge the loss of everything in her life. "Let's take from them, what they took from me... everything."- Viper

Sage is 7th to join the Valorant Protocol, perhaps maybe she was training that is why she was not able to join earlier.

ME SIMPING ON VIPER LORE

Viper: She was a good person who lost everything maybe because of the "copies".

"I am your monster. You made me this way. Never forget that." -Viper.

"You wanted a villain? I gave you a villain"-Viper

Since the copies plants spike to get radianite which causes destruction, maybe Viper's life was destroyed because of a planted spike.

"Let's take from them, what they took from me... everything."- Viper

"I will not lose my home again!" (Def losing)

You want revenge, Viper? Now's your chance."-Brimstone

Then she became a merciless predator when she began hunting the clones and experimenting on them, thus the name Viper. like really? why would she name herself after a snake right???? and also she treats the "copies" as rats. So basically, Viper is not a psycho who just kill for kill but she does take great pleasure and killing and making the "copies" suffer.

"I wonder if these ones will beg. They all do... after a while."

"They call me a monster. Shall I prove them right?"

"Bodies decompose after twelve hours in acid. There is no reason I know that."

And Sova noted that Viper is indeed a violent Scientist.

VIPER IS INSANE, LITERALLY

"There's a Viper over there. What a shame to rid the world of that mind. But I think she needs to rest."-KJ to enemy Viper

"That Viper is so hateful, how can she even think straight?" -KJ to enemy Viper

[Last Kill] "You stopped thinking clearly. This is for the best." -KJ to enemy Viper

Viper"I wonder if these ones will beg. They all do... after a while."

"They call me a monster. Shall I prove them right?"

"Bodies decompose after twelve hours in acid. There is no reason I know that."

"Do me a favor, Breach and open them up. Toxin works best when... directly.. injected."

Looking back on these lines, we can assume that Viper indeed torture and experimented on the copies. Perhaps she made various experiments on them to:

1. Know their origin.
2. Determine weather they are human too.
3. Know what kills them.

It's kinda scary to think what kinds of torture Viper made the clones undergo with. She is indeed insane and cruel.

"Some vermin are born to die... Like rats in a lab."

Sova noted that her ways of justice is scary or inhumane. This is a new line i heard during buy phase and I cant find it. :(

To end this, I think Viper talks to herself when she says "No one can hold their breath forever." after watching many copies beg for their lives and as Viper let her toxic engulf them while she watches them slowly die as they inhale her poison.

Yikes.

"Rest, you tired woman."
