Description
Greg Young is a veteran inspector at the Shield City Police Department. His awareness of the X-Playing Cards fuels a stubborn opposition toward both the High Card group and the Klondike mafia.
He once shared a significant friendship with Theodore Constantine Pinochle, CEO of Pinochle and leader of High Card, and Ban Klondike, head of the Klondike family. An unspecified incident fractured this bond. Afterward, police superiors and government officials compelled him to keep the Cards secret for national security, driving him further from Theodore and Ban. He maintains courtesy toward Ban, though tension defines their interactions.
Within the police force, Greg supervises novice detective Sugar Peace. He advises her against investigating Pinochle or the Cards, reflecting his understanding of their dangers. His investigative past includes handling the case of Finn Oldman's family deaths, but superiors forced its closure due to X-Playing Card involvement, leaving it an unresolved burden.
Despite lacking any Card-granted abilities himself, Greg demonstrates considerable tactical skill. He outmaneuvers Player Love-P by strategically shooting debris to incapacitate her and successfully apprehends Burst, another Player disguised as Tilt.
His knowledge of the Cards and royal family activities ultimately proves fatal. Prince Noah of Fourland, conspiring with the Klondikes, hires an assassin to murder Greg, preventing his investigations from exposing sensitive truths. This assassination occurs because Greg refused to cease his inquiries. His death profoundly impacts Sugar Peace, spurring her to confront Noah upon discovering his role.
In the present timeline, while relationships with Ban and Theodore remain strained, Greg continues his duties. This includes authorizing the legal placement of High Card members into police custody during operations, adhering to procedure over past loyalties.
