Personality
Erudite and insightful. He does not want to be anyone's burden or be an object for their pity. He values his colleagues in Faultline's crew, and feels a debt of gratitude to Faultline herself.<ref name="15.x">Interlude 5</ref>
Gregor has a habit of paying hundreds of dollars to have goods delivered to him rather that buy them himself. He once dismissed a delivery boy because he decided to spend the night with his girlfriend rather than take the money.<ref name="15.x">Interlude 5</ref>
Newter noted that Gregor sometimes went through philosophical phases.<ref name="15.x">Interlude 5</ref>
Faultline
Gregor believed that Faultline wouldn't kill him even in self-defence. He was willing to give up a limb in the event it helped her past her Manton Limit.<ref>“What if it had worked, you big lunatic? What did you expect me to do to you? Cut off your hand? Kill you?”
“I thought perhaps my hand or my arm, at worst. I do not think you would kill me, even in a moment such as that. You have done much for me. Even if it proved impossible to reattach, I would not say it is a very attractive hand,” he examined the hand he’d just used to strangle Faultline, “To lose it, for something you have been working on for a long time is not a regrettable thing.” - Interlude 5 </ref>
Appearance
Gregor is a bald man of average height,<ref name="5.1">Hive 5.1</ref> five feet and ten inches tall with the appearance of being morbidly obese. He has pale, translucent skin that reveals a "shadow" of his skeleton and organs; and a number of small, hardened, spiral growths scabbing his body like a bad case of acne. He's completely hairless, lacking even eyebrows and eyelashes. His fingernails are brown and rotten-looking.<ref name = "15.x"/>
His voice has a slight accent, and he tends to speak very carefully. He's able to speak Icelandic as well as English, which may be the source of his accent.<ref name="15.x" />
Gregor has a tattoo that looks like "the greek ‘Omega’ symbol, but upside down. This tattoo, maybe a stylized ‘u’"<ref name="5.1" /> is located on his upper arm.
Abilities and Powers
Gregor is able to concoct a number of chemicals within his stomach and project them through his skin. He can make fire retardant foam, adhesives, lubricants, and strong acids.<ref name="6.1">Tangle 6.1</ref>
Gregor's unusual biology makes him noticeably more durable than normal humans.<ref name=":0">She brought her knees up into his back, but one might have had more success hitting a waterbed. The effect was the same. Beneath his skin, which was tougher than one might guess, his skeleton, muscles and organs all sat in a sea of viscous fluids. His skeleton, he’d learned, was more like a shark’s than a human’s. It was a flexible cartilage that bent where bone would break, and healed faster than bone. He’d been hit by a car and climbed to his feet shortly after. Her kicks would not have much effect. - Interlude 5</ref>
History
Background
Gregor is an amnesiac, and knows very little about his origins. He spoke to an expert and learned the language he speaks besides English is Icelandic.
Early in his career, he worked as a bouncer.
He agreed with Faultline to put his wages towards unlocking the mystery of his origins around a year before the story.<ref name="15.x">Interlude 5</ref>
At some point Gregor was hit by a car, but he walked it off thanks to his durability.<ref name=":0" />
