NPC:LabTech X

From: The Gaiapedia, the community encyclopedia about Gaia Online

Page 8 of the manga Gino vs. Labtech X

The focus of much controversy and speculation, LabTech X is a character that many Gaians have come to know and fear ever since the Halloween 2k4 Incident. The first time LabTech X appeared, he was selling Vials of a mysterious Green liquid at the marketplace for 100 Gaia Gold apiece. Many Gaians thought nothing of these little vials, being more interested in the Halloween party at Johnny K. Gambino's Mansion. After the "Halloween 2k4 Incident", it became apparent that zombie Gaians could be cured by using the green "Vials of Unknown Liquid" that they had bought from the mysterious LabTech X.

A few months later, during the 2nd Gaia Anniversary Ball, LabTech X made a series of cameos, warning of an impending "Storm". While there was much speculation, a few months later, Johnny K. Gambino was shot atop a tower built by donations by the mysterious figure then known simply as "The Sniper"...and the Tower of Gambino, fell with him, obliterating the Von Helson Mansion in Durem.

Halloween 2k5 had a manga appearance of LabTech X, appearing at the New Gambino Mansion during the Halloween 2k5 Bash, hosted by Gino Gambino, who had just recently regained consciousness after being discovered on the beach by Ian and Sasha. LabTech X, lurking within the new G CORP Lab, released a horde of G Virus infected Grunnies into the mansion, where hapless Gaians tried to contain them. After the mansion was burned to the ground, LabTech X vanished.

The final appearance of LabTech X was on April Fool's Day of 2006. It was X who gave Cindy Donovinh the lead on the event. X appeared in person when Gino Gambino was dueling a weakened Ian. Shortly after X appeared, he injected "Gino" with a syringe filled with green liquid (the same he was selling in his first appearance?), revealing Gino was, actually Johnny K. Gambino himself.

Lately some Gaians have deciphered binary lettering that declares: “X lives” obviously referring to LabTech X.
