Biography
Richard Moreau was a male human born before the Great War though little was known about his past except for the fact that he was one of the lucky few who found shelter in Vault 8 when the bombs fell. When the Vault opened in 2092, he was exiled for murder shortly after; traveling to the newly-founded Hub more than four hundred miles to the south and established himself as a doctor there with the new surname Grey. Doctor Grey became popular, especially with one of the caravan masters by the name of Harold, who considered him a brilliant doctor and philosopher.
It was in 2102 that Grey, Harold, Francine, Mark and a handful of others set out to investigate trade caravaneers' reports of attacks by strange creatures in the area surrounding Mariposa. On June 23 of that year, the party was attacked by mutants inhabiting the base and suffered further casualties while breaking in to find shelter. In the base's center, Harold and Grey were suddenly struck by a mechanical crane. Harold was only injured and managed to escape, but Grey was knocked into one of the vats. Unable to escape in his injured state, Grey floated in the slime for days, nearly drowning. This prolonged exposure to the FEV precipitated his transformation into the horribly mutated mass known as 'The Master'. After he regained consciousness and dragged himself from the vats, he continued to mutate after the week-long immersion. The mutation eventually stabilized enough for him to notice his greatly increased mental capacity, capable of resolving the most complex of philosophical questions. He began experimenting on animals infesting the military base by exposing them to the virus. When he dipped a rat and a dog into the virus at the same time, the resulting fusion inspired him to begin formulating a philosophy of unification, laying the groundwork for the Unity. However, experiments were disrupted by the lack of subjects and his own limited understanding of the virus.
