History

Garrett's mechanical eye was given to him by the Hammerites, after his natural eye was plucked out by Viktoria, consort of The Trickster (The Woodsie Lord of the Pagans). The Hammer that gave him the eye was Brother Karras, who went on to leave the Hammerites to form his own splinter group. Karras gave him the eye in the hopes that an allegiance could be formed between the two.
