During the [[War of Succession]], Gremio was a soldier in [[Teo McDohl]]'s unit. Teo McDohl earned Gremio's eternal loyalty after Teo saved his life in the midst of a battle. Following the Succession War, Gremio became a member of the McDohl household, helping to raise [[Hero (Suikoden)|Teo's son]], since he was a baby<ref>"You've taken care of Tir since he was a baby. Thanks to your efforts. He's grown into a fine youth. I'm grateful to you." - Teo McDohl ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. A good cook, Gremio also often made the meals in the McDohl household.  
Gremio had lost his parents to war at the age of 9 and had spent the next seven years of his life wandering. [[Teo McDohl]] found him in the [[Karakas Desert]] and brought him to [[Gregminster]]. There, he would work as a servant as well as helping to raise [[Hero (Suikoden)|Teo's son]]].


When Teo's son was a child, he was kidnapped by bandits hired by [[Geil Rugner]] in order to delay and stop Teo McDohl. Gremio rescued the young child, slaying the bandit kidnappers with his axe. After the rescue, Gremio engraved the words, "I will always protect young master,"  onto his axe, giving it the name "Axe of the Oath<ref>"Oath's Hatchet," ([[Genso Suikoden Short Story Collection 1]])</ref>."  
The large gash on his cheek came from an incident during the [[War of Succession]] where Teo's son was kidnapped by bandits in the employ of [[Geil Rugner]] in order to delay and stop Teo McDohl. Gremio rescued the young child, slaying the bandit kidnappers with his axe but not before being wounded by [[Assam]]. After the rescue, Gremio engraved the words, "I will always protect young master,"  onto his axe, giving it the name "Axe of the Oath."


As Teo's son grew, Gremio continued to serve as his protector, accompanying him on his missions with the [[Imperial Guard]]. After becoming branded as a fugitive, Gremio was forced to leave [[Gregminster]] along with with as well.  
As a war orphan, Gremio empathized with his young master having never seen the face of his mother. He resolutely swore to protect him and to stay by his side. Thus, after the young master was branded as a fugitive, Gremio left Gregminster along with with as well. During the middle of the [[Gate Rune War]], in an attempt to free [[Liukan]] from [[Soniere Prison]], [[Milich Oppenheimer]] smashed a vial of the man-eating [[Spores of Agony]] in order to stop them. Gremio quickly pushed the other Toran Liberation Army members out of the room and shut himself in the room, sacrificing his life. In his last words, Gremio told Teo's son how proud he was of him for growing into such a responsible, mature young leader.


Although he wished to return to the Scarlet Moon Empire<ref>"Wait just a moment, Young Master. Talk like that and you'll never rejoin the Imperials. Don't you care? Come on Cleo, talk to him." - Gremio ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>, he agreed to join the Toran Liberation Army, following his charge as his loyalty to his orders outweighed his loyalty to the Scarlet Moon Empire. During a Toran Liberation Army attempt to free [[Liukan]] from [[Soniere Prison]], [[Milich Oppenheimer]] smashed a vial of the man-eating [[Spores of Agony]] in order to stop them. Gremio quickly pushed the other Toran Liberation Army members out of the room and shut himself in the room, sacrificing his life. In his last words, Gremio told Teo's son how proud he was of him for growing into such a responsible, mature young leader<ref>" Young master, can you hear me? I'm sorry I can't protect you any more. ...But now that you've grown up, you no longer need my protection. Young Master... You make me proud. I wish Master Teo could see you now." - Gremio ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
Prior to the end of the [[Gate Rune War]], Gremio was miraculously restored to life by [[Leknaat]] using the power of the [[108 Stars]] and the back half of the [[Gate Rune]], bolstering the morale of the entire [[Toran Liberation Army|Liberation Army]]. Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire and the end of the Toran Liberation War, Gremio, ever loyal, continued to follow Teo's son after he left the Scarlet Moon Empire.
 
Prior to the end of the [[Gate Rune War]], Gremio was miraculously restored to life by [[Leknaat]] using the power of the [[108 Stars]] and the back half of the [[Gate Rune]]<ref>"Such is the combined power of the Rune of the Gate and the 108 Stars. But what you have just witnessed is possible only once." - Leknaat ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>. Reborn, Gremio resumed his place in the Toran Liberation Army. Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire and the end of the Toran Liberation War, Gremio, ever loyal, continued to follow Teo's son after he left the Scarlet Moon Empire<ref>"Follows Tir." - Gremio's Ending Text ([[Suikoden (game)|Suikoden]])</ref>.
