Backstory
Lionel Sabatelli met Adam Fields at a technology competition. Adam had recently entered a medical science competition at the university he went to. Lionel won the technology competition with his barely functional, mind-controlled video game. The two became best friends and started discussing how both their research together could possibly work together.

A few years later Adam found out that his brother had died in Iraq. Devastated, thinking he could have created the technology that could have saved his brother's life, he continued his research with Lionel Sabatelli. Adam, being from a well off family and a large inheritance from his parents, still needed a loan to get started.

Adam and Lionel formed a team of scientists, doctors, and computer programmers to form the company “LifeSource”. The company started small, focusing on medication and standard medical equipment to sell to hospitals. They eventually made progress on inventing the technology to heal a person by themselves.

When the government learned of this, they too invested in the technology where it then grew to heal wounded soldiers in battle. It was later discovered that a soldier presumed to be dead was brought back to life in a comatose state after an attempt to use the machine on a deceased soldier.

Further research and funding brought to life the “Regeneration Pods”, the advanced version of the military designed machines that were able to bring back the recently deceased. This lead to widespread production of the Pods into many hospitals around the nation. It also lead to much controversy and new laws and protocols because of the technology.
