Biography:
Very little is known about Greg's life before the Great Wipe, except that he was the founding father of the original Gergitorian state on Terra III, ceremoniously becoming the first Gerg. Known for possessing mostly mortal qualities except his inability to age or die, his rule was often disputed, though never permanently suspended. Attempts to radiocarbon date his age have been inconclusive, and few reliable accounts exist of his origins. When the Great Wipe occurred, he stayed behind on Terra III for unknown reasons, presumably as part of a suicide plot. His disappearance in the Great Wipe caused a cultural stir in the early post-Gergitorian states, with many individuals claiming to be a successor or reincarnation of Greg, hence the title "Gerg".
He became the stuff of myths as his tormented body remained in deep space for a couple thousand years, constantly subjected to the extreme temperatures and vacuum of space. This was, until the year 4679, when he mysteriously reappeared, supposedly having been rediscovered by an interstellar traveler by the name of "Mia". After being dropped off in the Alacore system to communicate with the higher ones, he stowed away on a rapid travel trade convoy, eventually reaching the Seimoria system where he currently resides, albeit in secrecy. He describes his time in deep space as "hellish at first, then simply boring", and is undergoing therapy to alleviate the pains from prolonged vacuum exposure.
