=== Background ===
Dr. Gessler had once been among the most celebrated surgeons of the Lookshy Medical Corps, until he realized his desire to see humanity bettered. The Terrestrials, for all their might, were imperfect beings; given to petty lusts and grievances unbecoming of a superior being. The Celestials he'd heard of were little better. Raksi and Ma-Ha Suchi were all but consumed by them. Clearly unfit for beings of their power.

He tried to show this during a routine checkup on a staff officer, whom he drugged and strapped to the table. His assistants fled, except for two: a voluptuous nurse, and a hulking stevedore. He cut into her, carefully peeling back the layers of tissue to find the organ responsible for controlling Exaltation. He was never able to find it, which he attributes to poor tools, lack of time, and the fact that as he was going to cut into the tissue that he thought might hold the key to his search, the guards came in and arrested him. 

As he sat in his cell, awaiting trial, a luminata came to him and slid its tendrils around him. It whispered words of encouragement to him, stoking his ego and inflaming his desire to see the mechanics of Exaltation firsthand. He accepted the offer. When the guards came to collect him, they found a gleaming, perfect shell. He burst from it soon after, and escaped to Malfeas with the help of Ygoar and his nurse. He has been working there ever since, attempting to delve into the secrets of Essence-use to replicate it and make it available to all he wishes.
