He became fixated on the completion of the project with the rush causing it to explode during irradiation treatment that injured his wife Elinore Stone and causing the development of cancer within her body in later years. The guilt drove a new obsession as he began looking for a cure for his wife and began to neglect his own son Victor Stone. Secretly, Silas used the O.T.A.C. material to clone himself 13 times and used these replicants as guinea pigs to develop a cure for his wife's cancer. Despite his efforts, his wife perished from her disease and Silas disposed of the replicants. Unknown to him, the bodies were taken by black market dealers who decided to use them for experiments. This caused one of the O.T.A.C.s that was the thirteenth and last of the clones to gain sentience and develop more human characteristics of his creator.
