Biography

Legacy

In November 2019, when discussing the origins of Box as technology of the Gods of Gendar, Maxie Masters told P.R.O.B.E. director Giles about Epsilon. Maxie explained that, on Gendar, a planet whose inhabitants worshipped the Sun Builders as gods, Epsilon was considered one of the more important deities, alongside Urizen the Architect, Vala the Herborist, and a Trickster God of many names.

For a brief period, the name of gravity was meta-historically changed to gevity, an action "evidently creditable" to either Epsilon or one of his followers. (PROSE: Love & War [+]Loading...["Love & War (short story)"])
