Biography
Before becoming involved with K-9, it was known that Professor Gryffen's wife and two children died. This incident seemed to have been the driving force in the Professor's repair and experimentation with an alien Space-Time Manipulator. An accident with the Space-Time Manipulator led directly to K-9's arrival on Earth.
