Alex Hartman was the CEO of Hammer Valley Hydro, the second largest energy provider in Stalburg. Presumably, the construction of the Black Rock Nuclear Power Plant outranked his company for energy production, causing financial problems for his company. The problems escalated, and Hartman gradually became stressed and unstable. | Alex Hartman was the CEO of Hammer Valley Hydro, the second largest energy provider in Stalburg. Presumably, the construction of the Black Rock Nuclear Power Plant outranked his company for energy production, causing financial problems for his company. The problems escalated, and Hartman gradually became stressed and unstable. Following the metro disaster that killed Hartman's Wife and daughter Lisa Hartman asserted that Jeff Walter was the cause of all of these problems and began to plot his revenge. | ||
Hartman began a thorough investigation, searching every district of Stalburg for possible leads on Walter's location, and came to believe that Walter was out to get him too. Hartman allied himself with the former co-founder of the Bergmann Group, Eric Kleinmann, who provided him with dynamite, and was approached by the former CEO of Stalburg Steel, Mikhail Rosenthal. Hartman set a small base of operations in a sewer system underneath Stalburg, and at some point left a trap for Jeff Walter below the foundation of Walter's headquarters. When his investigation began to reach a dead end, Hartman somehow uncovered that Rosenthal was allied with Walter, and was informing him about Hartman's plans. Hartman interrogated and killed Rosenthal for this, and discovered that Walter was hiding in a villa owned by Rosenthal. | Hartman began a thorough investigation, searching every district of Stalburg for possible leads on Walter's location, and came to believe that Walter was out to get him too.
