'''Gladous Masda''', a charismatic, and by some accounts quite mad maths professor, became a known figure while teaching at the University of [[Sector1/Qutiri|Qutiri]].

As he grew increasingly outraged at the distortions of facts contained within the daily [[GalCop]] Vid-Band broadcasts, his interactions with his students began to contain less instruction in advanced mathematics and more frequently, zealous rants against the oppressive Galactic authority.

Once he had officially claimed that GalCop's propaganda arm were feeding the galaxy nothing but lies designed to keep the galactic workforce ignorant and pacified, he was dismissed from his position at the university, forcing Masda to withdraw from public society. In doing so he was joined a sizeable group of his most devoted students. Not long after it became know that they had formed a radical liberation group, named [[Mnemonic Fraction|The Mnemonic Fraction]].

His current status, whether living, dead, or existing as a fragment of code, remains unknown, yet he persists as a Class A Priority on the [[GalCop]] Liquidation Index.

+Following the operational success of the Rupture, Masda's firm control over the organization reportedly disintegrated, leading to a bitter internal fracture.
 Masda remained the spiritual figurehead of the Absurdists (or Loyalists). He maintained that the "Grand Ridicule" was the ultimate strategic victory, arguing that stripping GalCop of its dignity was far more destructive than stripping it of data. An unverified anecdote describes Masda lecturing to a disciple, ''"A totalitarian regime can shrug off a bombing, but it cannot survive being forced to recite bad poetry".''
-However, Masda grew increasingly hostile toward the splinter group known as the Nullists. Publicly disavowing their "hardline" philosophy, he described their desire to simply delete the GCM as "intellectually lazy". Masda dismissed the Nullists as "unimaginative butchers" who sought to solve the galaxy's equation by simply burning the chalkboard.

 Xeno-linguists and Masda scholars point to the Post-Rupture vocabulary, specifically terms such as ''"hoopy", "froody"'' and ''"gargle blasters"'', as the linguistic fingerprint of Masda himself. These absurdities are considered signatures of his "lunatic wit," permanently etched into the galaxy's operating system as a final, un-erasable act of defiance.
