NPC:Labtech Gene
From: The Gaiapedia, the community encyclopedia about Gaia Online
Gene was first introduced in the Evolving Item Report of April 4 2008, after Dr. Singh wrote him a letter requesting help with her Timmy situation. He is one of the few remaining specialists in the field of genetic surgery, and throughout the mishaps that G CORP have had that claimed the lives of a lot of his colleagues, he managed to stick around. He thought it barbaric that Singh had put Timmy in a barrel of toxic waste, but he agreed to going forward with surgery only out of concern for Timmy, thoroughly repudiating the practice of sticking children in barrels of toxic waste. He said Singh ought to be ashamed of herself for perverting science in such an abominable fashion.
With Singh anesthetized, he had to take over the April 18 Report and April 23 Report, despite him saying he wasn't much of a host. However, he said that although he was in the 'loosely sorted pile' phase of the operation, and 'sticking the bits back together' is the tricky part, he said he had done the procedure dozens of times, often with some degree of success. He said he knew a thing about science and genetics and could field the Reports, in which he said he had always been a fan of the Hermes' Moon, saying it reminded him of Grunnies, only not so bitey. He did say however that he wasn't much of a botanist.
After successfully curing Timmy and separating him from Dr. Singh, he revealed that there was an actual physical evil side to Timmy. Some Evolving Item reports later, Labtech Gene made another reappearance, haveing found a very traumatized Timmy in his lab, where the Evil Timmy was apparently stored. Gene has continued to make several more appearences at the reports, acting very strange and growing copious amounts of hair.
[edit] Trivia
- Some Gaians have noticed that Gene looks similar to LabTech 137, with the exact same hair color, eye color and glasses.
- Although the LabTechs with their own accounts have the username LabTech with a capital T, Gene has always had his name shown as Labtech, with a lower-case t.
