Gabriel

Gabriel Hosten was born into a family rich in military tradition. From a young age he knew that his path in life would lead him to a great career in the military. He was provided every advantage growing up with a respected noble as a father and many honored veterans scattered throughout the family history. For as long as he could remember, it seemed as if he was in training for when he would join the military. By the time he was old to actually serve, he had developed the personality of a seasoned soldier. He had unwavering discipline and composure not usually seen in a new recruit.

Because of this exceptional potential, and some family connections, he started his service at a young age and higher in rank than normal. His path was an easy climb into the title of officer, or so he thought. During the first few months of training he excelled at any challenge presented. It was during this time he started to develop a feeling of superiority over his peers and commanding officers. His upbringing forced him to suffer this revelation in silence, mentally berating the incompetence that seemed to be all around him. This animosity grew within him but did not surface for several more months.

The incident that ultimately got him thrown out was a slight from his commanding officer that normally would have gone unnoticed or ignored. After suffering this pompous fool for months he had had enough. What started out as disrespecting an officer quickly turned into an all out brawl. After the dust had settled, and he spent a few nights in jail, he was faced with some hard choices. The charge was assault and carried a monetary fine, at the least. Because of the dishonor brought on the family his father refused to pay. Having not the means to pay he would have been forced into community service. He decided that he would not be humiliated further and chose to suffer whatever fate they would give him. Despite his father's refusal to pay his fines, he did use his influence to keep him out of jail indefinitely. Gabriel was dishonorably discharged and sent on his way.

With no home and no way to make a living, he became distraught. He spent the next few days wandering the city trying to sort it all out. It was then that he saw the wanted poster looking for new crew aboard the Vigilant Seas. It was that moment that he knew he would have his hero’s welcome. He would sail the seas, make his mark and then return and claim his place of honor in the Icefian military.

Tactics: Gabriel believes that it is an honor to die in battle. Even so, he is not in a hurry to rush to his death. His plans include: a methodical survey of the field, then a plan of action that insures the greatest chance of success where help is needed the most. This may be viewed as hesitation on his part but it is merely his way of making the most out of the situation at hand. He will go home to Icefia a hero, he just prefers to be around for the welcome.
