TIMES NEW ROMAN MISHKA GASTER
BACKSTORY
Born in Russia, Times was originally named Mishka Privychka. He was adopted at the age of 4 by Dr. W.D. Gaster, who was visiting Russia for a conference on physics and, having just lost his wife, wanted a third child living in the house. Times was homeschooled, due to various illnesses over the course of his childhood that left him with walking difficulties and chronic fatigue. He changed his name to Times New Roman Gaster at 15, but kept his birth name as his middle name to honor his mother, who he has no memories of.
