Ernest Tiermann

Professor Ernest Tiermann was a scientist who owned Tiermann's World. He aquired his wealth by inventing many kinds of Servo-furnishing robots.

He lived with his son Solin, his wife Amanda and a household of robots. His wife was a cyborg and he really loved the Domovoi, the robot super-computer in his dream home. He was killed by one of his robots, Toaster. (PROSE: Sick Building)
