Balt Binion
#DescriptionDescription
Transmogrified Gav, working on [[Oisr�]]. Temporarily deceased.
Bio
Little has been revealed about Balt in the strip, except that he is a transmogrified Gav, so Gav's history is his. What his motivations are for his transmogrification have yet to be revealed.
He dies when he accidentally rips off his head, trying to demonstrate his expertise with waldos [[[@http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-03-14%7C2012-03-14]]]. Less than six days later his head has grown back, due to the activity of unidentified blood nannies, which are shared by other transmogrified Gavs on Oisri [[[@http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-04-22%7C2012-04-22]]].

Speculation
Could he be a UNS spy, populated with the Laz'r'us blood nannies, and not really dead?
See also Redhack and RED#2 (Retroencephaloderm #2) for a possible connection with Max Haluska and Professor Pau's nanny farm on Haven Hive.
It would appear [[[@http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2012-04-22%7C2012-04-22]]] that Binnie has grown a new head (in 6 days), and that other transmogrified Gavs at Oisri (possibly all?) have the same "very nifty" blood nannies. It also seems that the Gavs dont know where they came from, which supports the conjecture that they may be Redhack. If so, the UNS infiltration is pretty comprehensive, and may only be awaiting the trigger to go active.
