President Gray

President Gray was the President of the United States when IAAN first appeared in the United States. He had dark hair and dark eyes. Realizing that the psi race could be potentially dangerous if left unchecked he started the rehabilitation camps, a system of internment camps that spread at least continental United States. The original plan was to find a cure in a reasonable time, and return the kids back to their families completely cured of their afflictions. Since it did not go away in a few years, he realized he would have to take a more forceful control to the problem.

Originally parents could hand in their children if they were fearful of them, but he started collecting children against their parents wishes, sending a good chunk of survivors on the run. He also created the skip - tracers program, handing ten thousand dollars to whoever handed in a child, the price rising if they were higher on the color scale or had made themselves a legitimate threat, like Liam did when he broke out of Caledonia, bringing a small chunk of others with him.

When President Gray realized that the upper scaled kids would be a problem he pulled reds, oranges and sometimes yellows out of their original camps and putting the reds and pulled yellows in camps that could properly restrain them. The oranges presumably were killed in bulk by his orders leaving an already struggling group, population wise, down to three freeded people, and a couple people who were in experimental camps. It is unknown why he pulled yellows from certain camps and not all of them since both Caledonia and Black Rock had them, while Thurmond was not.

A lot of people did not like him, since he did nothing to try and fix the United States economy, which crumbled underneath its massive debt and inaccessibility to trade with any country outside its borders. He also suspended Congress and lifted how many terms a President could run in office. He also created an experimentation program that the first group of collected children were sent into, and seemed to have given a limited about of control over the program to his wife Lillian Gray so that she could find a cure for IAAN. He put his own son, Clancy Gray, into the program, saying the doctors could do anything they wanted with him so long as no physical scars remained on his body.

President Gray was easily controlled by his own son. Clancy could control him from multiple states away, and managed to convince his father to turn Project Jamboree from an experimental project to discover the inner biology of the reds to making the prisoners into an army. Clancy wanted the reds to be perfect soldiers so that he could use them to never be physically or mentally harmed again. It also seemed that President Gray genuinely believed his son had been cured, but he could also tell that his son was extremely manipulative.

He would go on to create Order Fifteen, which loosely covers how newborns were handled. He also probably created the birth registry and the punishment for attempting to evade the registry was to be put into a correctional facility until the child was born. Not much is known about the registry since it is talked about so little. He would also create a program that would monitor all communication in the United States.

Upon discovering where the Children's League Los Angeles Base were, President Gray ordered the location to be bombed. The bombing left half of the group dead, and left the others scrambling to different bases. Somehow he manages to evade capture and disappears into the wind.
