Life

As a researcher, Unctus was fascinated by the black oil found on the boundaries of the Mephidross and the Glimmervoid. His interest increased after a research party brought him a sample of the glistening oil. Unctus mixed the oil with serum and he began experimenting on himself by injecting small amounts of this mixture into his body. Soon, changes in his body began to occur, his saliva changed and his upper right arm morphed into a hook-like appendage. Visions also began appearing in his dreams, where he seemed to see glimpses of Memnarch, and "spheres" became an obsession. Unctus entertained the idea of entering the Knowledge Pool, an act deemed forbidden by the Synod, but would later find a way into the tunnel beneath after having another vision.

Unctus later awoke in a Phyrexian hideout, where his planning for the future takeover of Lumengrid as well as his further compleation would occur. His knowledge of Vedalken and Neurok biology put him in a prominent position in Phyrexia's ranks, where he co-developed the Meldweb, a network of Vedalken and Neurok brains. Despite this, he still yearned to find Scylla, a Vedalken female with similar ideals who he wished to pair with before his Phyrexian corruption, so he could make her "compleat" as he was now. He later found Scylla and grafted her body to his in order to experience true compleation.
