Though his origins are unclear, Greco became a wrestler at one point to, as he quoted, fulfill an "appetite for destruction." This dark period was alleviated only through the sacrifice of a man named [[Ghetz]], who gave his life to wake up Greco; Ghetz may have been an opponent in one of his matches. Greco was mortified and despondent over Ghetz's death; to make up for it, he took [[Romana]], Ghetz's sister, under his wing and moved to [[Termina]]. There, he continued to maintain his physical strength, though he no longer fought -- opting instead to take care of the cemetery. Greco felt that he had to hide from the world to deal with his grievances and sins. While in Termina, he performed funeral services for individuals and families, and also developed a reputation as a psychic. While he lived with Romana, their relationship was direct and stolid; Romana often believed he thought of her as a nuisance. | Though his origins are unclear, Greco became a wrestler at one point to, as he quoted, fulfill an "appetite for destruction."

==Name Origin== | |||
Greco and [[Romana]] stand for Greco-Roman wrestling. Greco's Japanese name is Gilbert, [[Ghetz]]'s is Getz, and [[Romana]]'s is Astrud. This is a reference to musician Stan Getz and Brazilian guitarist João Gilberto, who released an album called Getz/Gilberto in 1964. Astrud is the name of Gilberto's wife, who became famous after the album's release. (''Taken from [[Chrono Compendium]]'') | |||
