Giannis Velis

Giannis Velis (Greek: Γιάννης Βέλης) (January 19, 1983 - June 24, 2065) was a Grecian surgeon who was renowned in the biohacking community in Europe and the United States. He ran a series of underground augmentation clinics, performing experimental procedures as early as 2026.

Early Life
Giannis Velis was born in Pothia, the capital of the small Greek island of Kalymnos. His family was Roma, and there were not many job opportunities for them. Velis first worked as a scrapper, salvaging metals and other valuables for recycling from the island's overflowing landfills. He and other workers worked long hours, making little money, as valuable materials were scarce, and common material like copper, steel, aluminum, and iron were worth very little per kilo, and so required many kilos to amount to any substantial denomination.
