Professor Gerald Robotnik is the grandfather of Dr. Eggman, the creator of Shadow the Hedgehog, and was introduced in Sonic Adventure 2. He also created the Space Colony ARK, and was noted as "one of the most brilliant minds of all time."

While on board the ARK with his granddaughter Maria Robotnik, the professor began work on the Ultimate Life Form Project, a creation that was intended to benefit humanity. The end result was Shadow the Hedgehog. The government and its military organizations became uneasy about the project, believing that is could be a potential threat to Earth, and so attacked the ARK. Maria was killed, Shadow was launched toward earth, and the Professor was captured and imprisoned.

At about the time of the military attack, Prof. Robotnik began to lose his grip on sanity. Whether or not he completed the trap involving Biolizard as punishment for humans stealing the life of his beloved Maria and destroying everything he had ever worked for at said time is somewhat debatable, due to the fact that his final recording in Sonic Adventure 2 was done while he was in custody. Some speculate that he took the time during the military's invasion to 'program' Shadow for the destruction of humanity, while others suspect it was done in secret during Professor Gerald's time in prison.
