The Gray Scientist

Gordon Grayson East, better known as the Gray Scientist or just "The Scientist", is a recurring antagonist in the Bverse. He is Jamie's arch-enemy.
== Background ==
===Early life, military training and descent into evil===
Gordon Grayson East was born on January 6th, 1970. He was intrigued by robotics and the marvels of science thanks to his father. Gordon's father also had a fascination with inventing gadgets that doubled as weapons, training his son in using them hopefully for the greater good.
When he reached the age of 14, Gordon was enrolled in a military academy, one his father had convinced to incorporate the many gadgets he had invented. Gordon was a grade-A student and led his team to victory, becoming an early graduate. He was offered to continue protecting civilians or go home a better person. Unfortunately, Gordon discovered from his experiences that he enjoyed playing the role of the "villain" far more than the "hero", which he deemed "tiresome" and "so very inadequate", and that his gadgets would make him unstoppable. Gordon turned on his academy and broke away with all the gadgets he could get his hands on; a few being left over to fortunately fall into better hands.
Essentially, he chose to be a villain because he thought being the hero was overdone and a waste of time.
===Going to Barandout and founding Shocklight.inc===
By the 1990s, Gordon had become a notorious individual in the United Kingdom for his crimes, which ranged from petty (stealing CD players and children's lollipops) to genuinely horrific (blowing up a prison he had been sent to, freeing himself and his inmates). Planning to start over in a country less likely to known of his actions, he travelled to the country of Barandout and deemed the place a good area to start anew. He took advantage of his relative obscurity to approach a group of businessman and establish his own business: Shocklight.inc, a corporation that produces gadgets in a factory for ethical uses (fixing toilets, cleaning houses, or just helping lazy humans through their day) - but also gives Gordon the perfect place to plan his true neferious ways.
There are rumors that Shocklight.inc was originally a different corporation under the rule of an unknown CEO. The CEO has not been seen alive ever since Gordon established Shocklight.

==Appearance==
The Scientist is a relatively short middle-aged man with gray skin, which is actually tan but was covered up to look gray due to constant exposure to smoke. He wears a white lab coat with green cuffs and a hat with the Shocklight Inc. logo on them. The Scientist also wears white pants(also with green cuffs), and green shoes. His eyes are a yellowish tinge, and his irises are blue.
He is ripped under his coat, but hides it to avoid attracting fangirls or fanboys.
==Personality==
The Gray Scientist is an abrasive, theatrical, smug, overconfident, and petty card-carrying villain who generally seeks to ruin Jamie's life as payback for ruining his plans. Despite some bad experiences in his childhood, they were relatively petty and he doesn't have any real reason to be stuck on them: this boils down to him being evil simply because it makes him feel alive. This pettiness expands to him disliking or disapproving of anyone with a decent relationship to Jamie. In spite of his evilness, he does have a few lines he won't step, such as neo-nazism or hate crimes (because he simply doesn't care what others identify as, except if they're an enemy or ally to him).
Despite most of his terrible qualities and apathy to those around him, he deeply loves his machines and treats Cogs like his best mate, often treating them to casual activities such as picnics and watching movies when off duty.
For hobbies, Gordon has a theatrical side and a genuine fondness for music - his favourite instrument is the trumpet. He has an amazing singing voice as well.
