Due to her development of clinical immortality, Gi, Conrad and Verene continued to survive many hundreds of years, with Gi being crowned as "Her Glory the Machine Empress of Mankind" in 1139. During her long life, those she had known aged and died, and Conrad began to withdraw from life, becoming prone to daydreaming and eventually falling mute and non-responsive.
In her grief for the loss of Conrad's mind, Gi sought out a means to cure him. Unable to find any way to cure him in her world, Gi exercised the full extent of her power, and build the first version of a [[Techno-portal]] generator, later similar to that found throughout within a [[The First World]] [[Portal Hub Facility]]. She hastily commanded her loyal Captain of the Guard to travel through the [[Techno-portal]] generator, only giving thought to his return when prompted by [[Verene]], for whom she then created a [[Metallic Chip]] before sending her to retrieve the Captain. The effort to build the [[Techno-portal]] generator and within [[Metallic Chip]] proved to be substantial, causing Gi to lapse into a coma. Gi subsequently regained consciousness after a [[Brownshirt]] exile was drawn to her reality due to [[Verene]] and the Captain using the [[Techno-portal]] generator. The [[Brownshirt]] traveler was unable to draw Conrad out of his trance, identifying that he was uninjured, and merely chose not to respond. Gi sought the assistance of the Traveler's people, and a subsequent contingent of [[Brownshirt]] refugees arrived, proposing an alliance in order to resolve the issue of the destruction of their reality by Von-Neumann machines. The result of the alliance was the formation of [[The First World ]], [[Portal Hub FacilitiesBranch World]]s and the [[Inner Shield]] and [[Outer Shield]]. Conrad however remained unresponsive, and the true nature of his condition was exposed as being apathy due to his long life. Enraged through her grief at being unable to solve the problem and her loss of Conrad, Gi chose to journey out into the multiverse, seeking the regenerative abilities she needed to create a better immortality. Although she succeeded in refining immortality, she was still unable to find a solution to the apathy and ennui she now felt affecting herself, and which she knew was now also affecting [[Verene]]. With her withdrawing from managing the many realities under her control, inter-reality civilization fell, and large angry mobs attacked her palace. For the good of all of her people across the realities, she and [[Verene]] fled to the outer realities. [[The Devastation]] resulted in a catastrophic scattering of Gi's empire, as well as her apparent death, however her creations continued to work autonomously to revive her. At this point her exact nature and similarity to humanity is unknown. Traits:Originally caring of those around her and others, seeking to lessen suffering in all forms. Quiet and studious, with unnaturally advanced understanding of science, technology and mechanics. Able to bend or alter reality at will, although at the expense of significant amounts of energy and effort of will. Dangerous and poses a significant threat through her abilities, but not considered directly hostile (although her creations can be extremely dangerous in their own rights)
Notes:
Gisela and Verene appear to have originated from a version of Earth (likely [[The First World]]) in which the history of Europe took a very different path, including a number of events surrounding the unification of Germany which occurred several hundred years earlier than usual.
