Biography
Ronald Greer
Afterwards, Greer was detained at Icarus Base and was awaiting court-martial for assaulting Colonel David Telford. He was released by Colonel Everett Young during the attack to help defend the base and evacuated the planet through the Stargate before it exploded. He was the penultimate man to evacuate to Destiny, just ahead of Young. On arrival, he and the rest of the new crew were informed that they were on an unknown spaceship in an unknown region of space, billions of light years from home. When life support systems were failing and Dr. Nicholas Rush thought he had found a solution, Eli Wallace protested, believing that Rush's solution could destroy the ship. Greer held Rush at gunpoint, unwilling to let him make yet another decision that would hurt the Icarus personnel. Lt. Matthew Scott intervened and ordered Greer to lower his weapon, which he did. Rush tried his solution, but it had no effect on anything. When Destiny dropped out of FTL and dialed the Stargate to a planet with the necessary materials to repair the failing life support system, Greer was assigned to the team sent to explore it. He shot Dr. Jeremy Franklin on Rush's orders, as Franklin was about to leave with their only Ancient remote control. Greer then left to find Scott, who was lost in the desert. Greer found Scott and helped get him back to the gate with the Lime needed to fix the life support system. (SGU: Air) During the lottery, his name was not one of the ones chosen to escape the apparently doomed ship using the Ancient shuttle. When Sgt. Spencer, who was also not chosen, tried to argue that the shuttle could fit more, Greer quickly knocked him out with the butt of his rifle, before things could get out of hand. He chose to remain alone in his quarters for the end, watching the approaching star through his window. (SGU: Light)
A few weeks later, while Colonel Everett Young and Lt. Matthew Scott were on a mission to Hoth to replenish Destiny's water supply, he helped contain the Dust bugs which had infested the ship, devising a makeshift flamethrower to herd them. He managed to trap them in a closet, giving Lt. Tamara Johansen time to fill a barrel full of water to attract them. He helped carry the barrel to the gate and throw it through, disposing of the creatures. (SGU: Water) Several weeks later, when the International Oversight Advisory had developed a plan to bring the expedition home, he was locked up once more by Colonel David Telford, who had switched bodies with Colonel Everett Young. He encouraged Lt. Matthew Scott to rebel against Telford, knowing that Telford's rash actions could get them all killed. Though Scott was unwilling to do so, the situation was resolved by Dr. Nicholas Rush. (SGU: Earth) Some time later he was part of the team that discovered the Destiny interface chair. He also slept with Dr. Lisa Park. (SGU: Life) He discovered Sgt. Spencer's corpse when Spencer failed to report for duty. When the investigation eventually led to an informal trial, he suggested the use of force to restore Colonel Everett Young's authority. This idea was turned down by Young himself. After Camile Wray was put in charge, she took him off the active-duty list. Greer believed that she did so out of suspicion that he killed Spencer. She did not give him a straight answer, though he insisted that they would talk about it further. The situation was resolved when Spencer's death was revealed to be a suicide. (SGU: Justice) A short while later, when Destiny was attacked by an alien mothership, Greer helped Lt. Matthew Scott defend the ship from Nakai fighters using the Ancient shuttle. (SGU: Space)
A day later, the civilian personnel mutinied against the military, sealing them off in one section of the ship. Greer and Colonel Everett Young, using Ancient environmental suits, went onto the hull and re-entered the ship on the civlians' side to unseal the doors and retake the ship. Greer was posted in the Destiny mess hall with Lt. Vanessa James to keep watch on the civilians. Once the mutiny was dealt with, the civilians were dismissed, though Greer felt that the issue would come up again. (SGU: Divided) A week later, Destiny unexpectedly jumped out of FTL in the vicinity of a Uncharted star with a single planet orbiting it. Greer accompanied the first team to visit the planet, and was the first to sample a kiwi-like fruit, despite objections that it could be poisonous. He then spent a month on the planet while the ship navigated around the star, helping to keep relations between the military and civilians amicable in his own unique way. (SGU: Faith) A few days later, along with Eli Wallace, Chloe Armstrong and Lt. Matthew Scott, Greer explored a planet with ruins. There Greer was trapped when, after firing at a Giant spider, a section of the tunnel the team was exploring collapsed. The team was stranded when the Destiny jumped to FTL again. The next day, while searching for a way out of the ruins, Chloe believed she had found a map of the tunnel system. When Greer went down another tunnel to check her findings, it collapsed on him, knocking him unconscious. Unable to dig him out, Scott reluctantly left with Eli and Chloe. He awoke later on and managed to dig himself out, but by the time he reached the Stargate his companions had already left. He set up camp by the gate, awaiting rescue, and was tormented by hallucinations of his father. He was eventually rescued by Lt. Vanessa James, who brought him back to the ship, though he was dismayed when Scott, Eli, and Chloe had not been rescued. (SGU: Lost)
