History[]
Family Life[]
The family consists of Father, Mother, Penny Piggy, Georgie Piggy, Memory, and Grandmother. Penny herself is an elder child in the family. Memory is confirmed to be a part of the Piggy family, though Memory's identity is largely unknown.
All of the members of Piggy family live in a large house in Lucella, presumably with the exception of Grandmother. Grandmother presumably lives in the city, where she owns the building called Grandma Piggy's Poutine.
Testing the Cure For Linnaeoma[]
One day, Piggy family heard that Mrs. P, the wife of Mr. P, the local celebrity and billionaire, was diagnosed with Linnaeoma, a deadly disease for which no cure had yet been found. Mr. P funded a large research for the cure and created a substance called Substance - 128, which was meant to be the cure for Linnaeoma.
However, Mr. P rushed the doctors to test it, despite their warnings that the substance was unstable. Mother, Father and Penny volunteered to test the cure, so they went to the hospital and were given a potion of Substance - 128. The initial results were positive, as the family said that they felt stronger, which Mr. P was overjoyed to hear and caused him to immediately give the potion to Mrs. P as well.
Start of the Infection[]
However, Substance - 128 was not a cure, but a virus which takes control over the host's body and has them spread the virus by attacking the uninfected. As such, Penny, Mother and Father were the first people to get infected. Shortly after they came back home, Georgie was sleeping, but he later woke up and noticed their strange behavior, so he ran away from his home.
Infection in the City[]
Grandmother heard about the rest of her family's strange behavior and Georgie's disappearance, so she expressed her concern for Georgie in a note, which can be found in her shop. Georgie himself came to the city to find Grandmother, but by the time he got there, everyone, including Grandmother, was also infected, so he hid in the mall.
Apperances[]
Penny’s Encounter in the House[]
The Player, a detective working for Lucella Police Department, was tasked to find Georgie, so they went to Piggy family's house, since that was the last place where Georgie was last seen. When they got there, though, they were knocked out by Penny, who then brought them to bed in her room and locked the house down. The Player woke up and tried to escape, but Penny woke up shortly after and chased them around. After successfully escaping the house, the Player went back to the station to report what they have seen.
Mother’s Encounter in the Station[]
When the Player finally came to the station, everything was quiet, so they asked if there is anyone. Suddenly, Doggy told them through a loudspeaker that there is an infected inside the station and that they should evacuate to the garage. The Player encountered Mother, who started chasing them. After unlocking the barricaded door to the garage, the Player found their coworker Doggy inside the car, and Doggy asked them to get some gas. After the Player did so, they got inside the car and Doggy drove off from the station.
Gallery Encounter with Father[]
Shortly after the events from station, Doggy's car ran out of gas in the middle of the city, whereupon the car was surrounded by Mother, Father and Sheepy. Doggy and the Player quickly got out of the car, ran inside the nearby gallery and barricaded its entrance, only to learn that Father had already entered the building. This forced them to unlock the door of the gallery to escape. After doing so, they went to the forest.
Grandmother’s Encounter in the City[]
While they were in the city, the Player, along with two new allies, Pony and Zizzy, encountered Grandmother, who was already infected. Another infected resident, Elly, was helping her chase down the three, though they failed in catching them.
Georgie’s nightmare[]
Georgie wakes up from a nightmare and calls out for his sister. However, Penny is not there, so Georgie decides to look for her. He sees that his house is distorted, and he is being chased by Memory. When he escapes, he finds Penny, back turned towards him. He calls out, but she walks away, Georgie doesn’t feel too good, as his eyes briefly turn black with red pupils, and Georgie wakes up in his hideout in the mall, with the whole thing being a nightmare.
Finding Georgie in the Mall[]
When the Player, Pony and Zizzy escaped the city, they saw someone watching them, so the Player and Zizzy went to pursue the intruder while Pony went back to The Safe Place. The Player and Zizzy then realized the person observing them is hiding inside the mall. When they finally managed to unlock the barricaded door leading to the mall's storage room, they realized that the intruder is actually Georgie. They took pity on him and brought him to The Safe Place. From then on, Georgie appeared in most of the chapters.
Penny’s Second Encounter in the Lab[]
Much later on, the Player encountered Penny once again in the lab. This time, Penny was much larger and was distorted, and had an ability to teleport around. Despite this, the Player managed to evade her.
Willow-Savior Continuity[]
Player escapes the lab with Willow as Tigry is defeated, with Willow holding the cure. They walk out of the military camp to find Georgie among their other allies. Georgie asks if they found the cure, then later points out the absence of Willow, who left with the cure in hand but comes back to use it on Pony.
Hidden Ending Continuity[]
Later on, when the Player and their group finally found the cure and got outside of the lab, TIO sent a bunch of infected to attack Sergeant Monroe and his soldiers, and teleported few residents of The Safe Place into their minds. Georgie was on a brink of falling from the floor in his house directly on Distorted Penny, but was saved by the Player, who dropped a bat on her, whereupon Distorted Penny disappeared, since she was just a hallucination.
Other Appearances (Unknown Canonicity)[]
Metallica x Piggy Event[]
Grandmother's poutine shop, Grandma Piggy's Poutine, appears as a shop in the Metallica Fest along with other booths around the entrance. Grandmother herself is not present.

- Most people think Georgie's eyes are white in the family portrait in the Piggy: Book 1 Credits, but they are just closed.
