## History

Volume One

Gizzy, a new arrival in the Altered Universe, bitten by Werewolf and in turn becomes one, tries to find a way to reverse the process. With the help of a fairy, Gizzy is cured of the curse, but later, while learning more about his morph abilities, Gizzy is told by Dr. Jekyll of split personalities that may develop overtime. ("The Wolf Pack", "Jekyll and Hyde")

Volume Two

Eventually, Gizzy's split personality appears when a friend of his named Brayden is murdered. In a new state of form, the split personality tracks down the supposed killer and turns him into the authorities of Higher Rank. Hours later, Gizzy reverts back to his normal self, thinking it was all a dream, but unfortunately, Brayden really did die. ("The Power Born")

Going to Dr. Jekyll again to talk about the split personality, Gizzy is informed by the doctor that the cause of turning into a split personality is usually unique and specific. Since Brayden was killed when he changed, Gizzy assumes that his trigger his death. ("Take Back Your Life")

Lost in a jungle, Gizzy and Benji feel as if they're being stalked. Suddenly, three robots appear, but stand still, not even trying to harm the two. Walking away from the trio, Gizzy is snuck up by another robot, who also injures Benji. The injury triggers Gizzy to transform into his split personality. Once he changes back, Gizzy becomes skeptical of how he could've changed is no one died. Seeing as Benji was hurt, they conclude that death isn't the trigger, but friends being harmed is. ("Five Nights at Freddy's")

Returning home with the help of Witch, Gizzy finds that is house has been wired with explosives. He decides to enter through the back door to avoid being blown up and finds Yoshi awaiting him upstairs. The friend reveals that he was the one who intended to kill him as he was ordered by Inferno and is bound by the signature agreement. Gizzy tries to find help, but when he comes back for Yoshi, he finds him lying dead on the ground. His death triggers Gizzy's transformation into hi split personality. The split personality picks up Yoshi's corpse, buries him outside of the house and places a tombstone on the grave. In the morning, the split personality changes back into Gizzy. ("Waiting for Superman")

Getting stuck in blocks of sinking sand, Gizzy realizes that the only way to escape certain death is by transforming. Benji, sacrificing himself, gets bitten by a snake and triggers the transformation. The split personality, stronger than anything, manages to get out of the sand with his might and later changes back into Gizzy. Meanwhile, Benji is poisoned from the snake bite and is put back in the FamGuide to regenerate his health. ("Passage of the Earth")

Volume Three

At the Broken Church, Gizzy and Divine confront Voice ("Hear My Voice")

Following Voice's death, Gizzy and Divine, along with the newly healed Benji, retreat to discuss their next course of action. Divine suggest that he go to Prophecy, so that Voice's death may not be in vain. Gizzy continues to show little interest in fighting a demon to save a world he was kidnapped into. Later, Gizzy spots some Lucky Blocks and decides to break them in case they might drop good items. Divine warns him that they look oddly suspicious, but the Chosen One heads towards them anyway. As he steps into their radius, Gizzy quickly falls in a hole, gliding down thanks to Benji, and realizes it was a trap. Gizzy finds himself in a cage surrounded by four creatures, all with brown skin and the same type of tribal clothing. When Gizzy tries to communicate with them, they respond with a strange language, the same dialect that Ratchet uses. Benji tells him that they're the Green Bloods, a rare species that's been hunted down for many years by the Bowsmen, which is also Ratchet's species. With the fairy as his translator, the Green Bloods tells him that he will be their sacrifice and is to be feasted upon. Gizzy tries to persuade them otherwise by mentioning their relative, Ratchet, who was exiled from their group for joining forces with Witch. Gizzy notes that he last saw him at the Broken Church and notices that he looked oddly ill. Although he knows Ratchet, the Green Bloods continue cooking Gizzy as planned, until the Chosen One suddenly transforms into his split personality. Unlike the other times, Gizzy succeeds in controlling his altered form. With his new form, Gizzy manages to break through the bars of the prison and leave with Divine, who had also arrived to rescue Gizzy. Once the three escape the den, Gizzy recognizes himself as the split personality, calling himself a monster. He decides to call his alter ego the Canine, and later figures that he's unable to revert back to his normal self. Luckily, Benji reveals that he knows a man named Sensei who can train his split personality. The group decide to find this man to be able to control the Canine and potentially get closer to defeating the Demon. ("The Green Bloods")
