Gregor the Snail

Gregor the Snail is a Case 53 cape and a member of Faultline’s Crew.

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.

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.

Newter noted that Gregor sometimes went through philosophical phases.

Shamrock
Gregor and Shamrock started a relationship after she joined the team. They eventually married.

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.

Appearance
Gregor is a bald man of average height, 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.

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.

Gregor has a tattoo that looks like "the greek ‘Omega’ symbol, but upside down. This tattoo, maybe a stylized ‘u’" 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.

Gregor's unusual biology makes him noticeably more durable than normal humans.

Background
Gregor is an amnesiac, and knows very little about his origins, he had to live on the streets. He spoke to an expert and learned the language he speaks besides English is Icelandic.

Early in his cape 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.

At some point Gregor was hit by a car, but he walked it off thanks to his durability.
