Gilbert Leiker was born in 1974 in the north-western United States. He was almost immediately captured by robots and forced into a life of continuous illustration and time travel. During the day he works as a designer and animator for a large gaming (gambling) company. Once the working day is over, he heads to Sub-Bunker 15 and his drawing table at MOTHbot Central where, under the baleful gaze of the MOTHer O.N.E. Central Synaptic Processing Network, he must draw and draw and draw. In exchange, the robots keep Gilbert entertained with a steady flow of comic books and zombie movies. He has a cat assistant programmed to help him stay on task. Recently, Gilbert has become a professional time-traveller.
