From a young age, Gale was a prodigy with magic, manipulating magic like a skilled virtuoso plays music. His talent drew the attention of the Goddess of Magic herself, [[Mystra]], whom was so taken by his skill that she revealed to him arcane secrets known by few others. They shared an intimate relationship until one day Mystra grew distant and disappeared, seemingly displeased with Gale. Spurned by his goddess, Gale lost most of his incredible magical prowess, although he was still a more than capable [[wizard]].
From a young age, Gale was a prodigy with magic, manipulating magic like a skilled virtuoso plays music. He lived in [[Waterdeep]]. He has a treesum called [[Tara]]. His talent drew the attention of the Goddess of Magic herself, [[Mystra]], whom was so taken by his skill that she revealed to him arcane secrets known by few others. They shared an intimate relationship until one day Mystra grew distant and disappeared, seemingly displeased with Gale. Spurned by his goddess, Gale lost most of his incredible magical prowess, although he was still a more than capable [[wizard]].


Determined to gain her affections back, Gale sought out a dangerous tome with the objective of returning some lost magic back to his beloved goddess. Ultimately, Gale failed in his endeavour and his body became an unwitting host to an extremely destructive Netherese orb. To keep the orb inhabiting and corrupting his body in check, Gale must continually sate it with powerful magical artefacts - if he fails, the orb will detonate, bearing enough destructive power to bring down even whole cities, and Gale with them.

Gale can come off as proud or arrogant, but will also treat those in need with kindness. He tends to ponder intellectually and looks at everything with a pragmatic and analytical view.
