Personality
Geno is a genetic scientist obsessed with perfection and immortality. He sought to "protect" The Omniverse by perfecting every Reality, but he used many abhorrent methods to achieve this, such as subjugating the Zero Point and creating The Loop.
Despite abandoning them in a cruel manner, he still cares about his daughters. This is evident when he tells The Order that if she simply asks, he will allow her to live somewhere safe. When he and The Imagined both fell into the Zero Point, he desperately tried to save her, though in vain, all the while explaining that his abandonment of his daughters was actually a trick to set them free.
He believes he is misunderstood and that the only way to protect The Omniverse is through his own methods. Once defeated and is disappearing, he admitted to feeling immense pressure from the burden he placed on himself. Although he never acknowledged that he was wrong, he placed his hope in The Foundation, hoping his method would work. Even though he tried to warn them of an unknown threat before "laying down the burden".

Timeline
Unknown time period
Geno masters the natural sciences and genetics, creating The Sisters and genetically modifying them to be as perfect as possible, as well as giving them and himself immortality. The Omniverse was their playground, but after a member of his inner circle proposed a bet, he wanted to see his 'perfect' daughters in action and decided to throw them into The Loop, wagering that they would be the first to escape. However, they weren't, causing he to replace them with two of their stronger Snapshots. Afterwards, he continued his actions by adding more Loopers to The Loop and strengthening the Imagined Order.
Chapter 2: Season 7
Geno appears in a picture with a young Doctor Slone in Corny Complex.
Chapter 3: Season 2
Geno keeps The Imagined away from learning the truth about her past, even deleting all files related to she and The Order from IO servers. The Foundation stated that he is the one who made plans to end The Loop in the Collision event.
Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War
Geno hires Doctor Doom to help the Imagined Order get rid of the The Seven.
Collision / Fortnite X Marvel: Zero War #5
Geno calls the Doctor Slone and tells her to activate The Collider. Their communication is intercepted by The Seven during the briefing on the Ice Moon. He stays on an upper platform of The Collider, firing an energy beam at Iron Man, causing him to crash. The Imagined notices him and calls The Order to help her. The Sisters and Wolverine climb up The Collider and blast near he, where they get into a fight.
Geno doesn't kill The Sisters and rather shows them mercy, but The Order kicks him, causing all of them to fall and thus hold onto the platform. The Imagined sacrifices herself and jumps into the Zero Point, taking he with her. They end up at "The Realm" and get discorporated, being scattered across The Omniverse. His remnants travel through multiple Realities, winding up at a singular spot and slowly reforming he.
Chapter 4: Season 1
A young Snapshot of Geno, The Ageless, arrived on the new Island at The Citadel as the ruler of the Oathbound Empire.
Rift Warden Stellan has been haunted in his dreams by a being he described as the "Shapeless Man" whom he first met when he was young centuries ago. According to Stellan, the Shapeless Man always said he imagined a world of perfect order. After the destruction of the Rift Gate and the opening of a new Sideways Rift, the Shapeless Man thinks he got what he wanted and finally left Stellan's dreams.
