Gale is an intelligent, thoughtful wizard, with a good-hearted and peaceful nature. He has a scholarly, slightly pompous speaking style. He speaks openly about himself when asked, describing himself as a "wizard of some renown" who enjoys good wine and ocasionally writing poetry. He frequently shares anecdotes from his youth or his career as a wizard.  Like [[Karlach]] and [[Wyll]], he generally approves of the player's good-aligned choices.

After the end of [[Act Two]], Gale becomes fascinated by the existence of the Crown of Karsus, and shows an obsessive, power-hungry side to his personality. Depending on the player's choices, he either regrets his hubris and makes a commitment to become more humble, or decides to reforge the crown and use it to ascend to godlike status, using his new powers to help people.
