BACKGROUND:Orphan
Gale has spent his younger years as an orphan boy in Gridania. Since he was often bullied by other kids, he liked keeping to himself and playing in the woods where he befriended an Adder Scout that taught him how to track and hunt. The Scout friend was later found out to be a spy for an organization that was a threat to Gridania’s security. Everyone the Scout was close to were immediately suspect.Out of Gridania
Eyed for questioning and suspect as a threat to Gridania, he stowed away in a caravan of a traveling merchant, meaning to escape his current situation. This merchant found him out. He was shown kindness by the merchant, to Gale's surprise. The merchant fed him and gave him books to read. The merchant treated him like one of his own for a time until the man came to Gale’s tent one night. The merchant dealt with sex trade and was grooming Gale along.After a few years, or so, of travelling with the merchant and his trade, the caravan was ambushed by bandits and only Gale survived.At Sea
Gale made his way to Limsa after being freed from his slavery. He thought he could continue his freedom and travel the world when he was asked to be part of a crew of one of the privateers for the Grand Company. He later found out that the crew and ship were only parading as such and was actually transporting contraband for the different kinds of illegal organizations. He was forced to work without pay until he could buy his freedom again. It took him a while to find an opportune moment to get out of the job but then the ship and the crew encountered a great storm and the ship perished at sea, with him as the sole survivor.The Far East
He found himself drifting to Kugane. An old Roe found him on the shore and nursed him back to health. This Roe taught him how to use dual blades and to channel his aether to create lightning. Gale spent a few years in Kugane learning from the Roe while also befriending a female Elezen who was a daughter of a traveling merchant. He and the lady eventually started a relationship. He was happy for a while until he caught the lady cheating on him one night. He ran back to the Roe heartbroken and found a group of men going into their house. The men slaughtered the Roe, burned the house down, and left him for dead...Drifter
He now just travels around, hunting monsters, doing odd jobs here and there, like a drifter with nothing to lose.
