After the death of his father in a boating accident, Marie Logan moved the family to a permanent home operating a wildlife sanctuary in the Republic of Qurac. At the age of eight, Gar contracted the Sakutia virus. Due to the isolation of the wildlife sanctuary and the rapid deterioration of Gar's condition, his mother was forced to treat him using an experimental vaccine developed for treating the virus in West African green monkeys. Though Gar made a full recovery from the illness, his body reacted to the vaccine. In light of the aggressive, sometimes violent reactions, Marie Logan moved Gar to a pediatrics hospital in the United States. Tests revealed that Gar's genetic structure had undergone a mutation of unstable molecules within the rNA of his cells, thus allowing him to alter his shape and form. In particular, Gar was successful in changing shape and form into animals with which he was familiar. When treatments were unsuccessful in reversing the metabolic changes, Marie Logan again returned to her work in animal conversation with Gar in tow. Though an American citizen by birth, Gar attended elementary school in Qurac, middle school in Brazil, and completed the equivalent of a high school education in the Congo. As a result, he speaks three languages fluently (English, Portuguese, and French), in addition to having some conversational familiarity with Arabic, Urdu, Swahili, and Lingana. At his mother's insistence, Gar applied to, and was accepted at, Metropolis University for Conversation Biology. The transition from the outback to the big city was not an easy transition for Gar, on top of which the first year of college added a great deal of personal stress. Deciding to take a semester off, Gar began applying for jobs in Metropolis in order to achieve greater financial independence, but found that he had difficulty in getting hired due to his green color. Seeing an advertisement for a student internship at a federal office in Metropolis, Gar applied as part of his "ask a hundred, get ninety-nine rejections" strategy... and wound up being hired when the interview revealed his multi-lingual fluency and experience in the third world.[/indent] [b]| [color=lime]SUPPORTING CAST[/color] |[/b] [indent][u]Colonel [b]Slade Wilson[/b][/u] (Codename "Deathstroke") The enigmatic leader of the Strategic Hazards Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate.[/indent] [indent][u]Colonel Niles Caulder, Ph.D., Ret.[/u] (Codename "[b]Chief[/b]") The Branch Chief of the Metropolis Field Office, responsible for all of its activities, to include oversight of Field Operations Unit SG-1.[/indent] [indent][u]Sergeant [b]Joshua Clay[/b][/u] An Army Field Medic and Afghanistan combat veteran, he's interning at S.H.I.E.L.D. in order to get a good reference to John Hopkins University for medical school.[/indent] [indent][u][b]Tara Markov[/b][/u] An undergraduate student interning as Rita Farr-Dayton's personal assistant.[/indent] [indent][u][b]Dorothy Spinner[/b][/u] A graduate student interning at S.H.I.E.L.D. in the Human Resources Department.[/indent] [b]// Field Operations Unit SG-1 CODENAME "DOOM PATROL" //[/b] [indent][u]Steve Dayton[/u] (Codename "[b]Mento[/b]") Widely regarded as the greatest secret agent in the world, Steve Dayton's success is largely due to his psionic abilities, which border on clairvoyance at times.[/indent] [indent][u]Rita Farr-Dayton[/u] (Codename "[b]Elasti-Girl[/b]") Olympic gold medalist in college, Hollywood Oscar nomination at 20, an accident while shooting on location at an active volcano in Hawaii left this star athlete with the ability to shrink or enlarge her body.
