Welcome to Dr. Gasse's Laboratory!

To begin with, let's learn a bit more about ******, shall we? Historical references to ****** first appeared in the spoken folklore of ancient Egypt, passed down from generation to generation. Until recently, it was assumed that the ****** creature did not actually exist (similar to the many other mythical creatures of ancient Egypt). However, in 1997, the discovery of a live ****** in the Egyptian city of Old Alexandria disproved this assumption, and ****** came to be known the world over. While the originally discovered ****** specimen died shortly after being captured, its remains were quickly rushed to the foremost biological research institute in France where a number of eggs were discovered inside its body. We at Vivarium were then able to assist in this endeavor by covering the research and development costs in return for the sole distri- [missing fragment]. It is well known that as a part of its genetic labeling, ****** passes knowledge on to subsequent human generations orally. Furthermore, ****** is said to have had a strong influence on the progression of ancient civilization, but the details of exactly how this was done are not yet fully understood. The man who made the original discovery of ****** was a French scientist by the name of Dr. Jean Paul Gasse (1899 - ?). Dr. Gasse was a member of a special team of French biologists dispatched to Egypt by the French government in the 1930's. When he discovered references to a creature dubbed the “omnipotent messenger of the gods” among the ruins of the Third Dynasty, he became determined to pursue this line of research and unravel this mystery. In March of 1932, in the city of Alexandria, Dr. Gasse happened to meet up with a local resident who had caught a ****** while fishing. Dr. Gasse obtained a sample of some of the eggs, which he carried back with him to France. When Dr. Gasse returned, he immediately attempted to raise the ****** eggs in his Parisian laboratory but, unfortunately, in the midst of his experiment ****** died. Shortly thereafter, Dr. Gasse published a detailed thesis of his work. However, other leading academics of the day dismissed the young scholar’s work as a publicity stunt and without proper evidence (e.g., a living specimen) to support his theories, his work was shunned and no one believed him. Dr. Gasse’s hypothesis suggested that ****** was perhaps responsible for transferring knowledge that proliferated during the Third Dynasty across oceans to other lands. This theory eventually became the basis for Anthro-bio Archaeology, a highly valued field of study today. Soon after the publications of his thesis, Dr. Gasse was dismissed from his post. He then disappeared for quite some time. Recently, a diary was discovered detailing Dr. Gasse’s subsequent work and continued research to unravel the details of ******’s evolution.
