Conception

The Infomaniac was conceived by lead designer Wes Jenkins.[1] According to an interview with him, all of the game's main characters were based on Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, and each character was designed to have definitive strengths that each player could potentially see themselves through. While Jenkins didn't intend it, it is a commonly believed the character bares a strong resemblance to him.
