Origins of Mogwai

Mogwai were originally from planet Moglen, a planet that is 12 million feet from Pluto, where a scientist wanted to created a perfect pet for the alien children on the planet. He managed to create one, with disastrous results. Using chemicals and chemistry, he created a Mogwai. However, he also accidentally made three counterparts for a Mogwai. If it gets wet, it will multiply, if it gets exposed to sunlight, it will be a fatal, and if they eat when the next day begins (in Earth time, midnight), the Mogwai will turn into a Gremlin, a green reptilian monster.

The scientist realizes these rules after he sold several Mogwai to the alien children. Because alien children gave the Mogwai baths, several aggressive Mogwai were spawned. Several alien children also tired from the complaints of Mogwai wanting to eat after midnight, so the alien chlidren fed them after midnight. Because of this, thousands of thousands of Gremlins were created and the planet was dominated by Gremlins.

The scientist searched for other planets in hopes of finding other aliens to help save their planet. The scientist was killed by Gremlins when Moglen was conquered by the creatures and they used the scientist's rocket ships to dominate other planets. After conquering Pluto, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and the moons of the planets, the aliens who lived on those planets and moons were killed by the Gremlins. However, the sun killed all the Gremlins when they could not shield themselves, and some Gremlins quickly evacuated into the Asteroid Belt.

The Gremlins found the only planet where sunlight can be blocked: Earth. However, only one of the Gremlins survived landing into Earth. He dropped into one of Earth's oceans, and spawned one Mogwai before sunlight killed the Gremlin. The last remaining Mogwai was Gizmo.

Humans have found Gizmo and because of his peacefulness and well adaptation of civilization, they kept him as a pet.
