Not exactly. The player is a Splicer who gets shot and very nearly killed, then sent adrift on the Atlantic Ocean. By virtue of plot convenience, the ADAM he ingested maintained and healed his body, but drained itself, leaving him powerless in the end. I don't want to say he's sane or unaddicted, but he does start on a cleaner slate than existing Splicers.
