G'aetan T'aire

G'aetan T'aire is a Human (Halfling Heritage) Rogue, Cleric of The Voice of Markham, and one of the main party members of The Great Gaenrun Caper Campaign.

Appearance
G'aetan keeps his appearance shrouded in mystery. He is an average looking human of short stature, allowing him to disguise as both medium and small races.

He has now lost one of his eyes after removing the Umbral Eye given to him by the Author. He predominantly covers this with an eyepatch, but wears a glass eye when disguising himself. (2x01)

Aliases
G'aetan has developed adopted number of original aliases, each with a unique appearance created by his disguise kit.

Ryan Bland
A run of the mill peasant. Shaggy and tattered clothes, Ryan is described as "the most average commoner you've ever seen".

G'aetan adopts Ryan when seeking discretion, hoping people underestimate him for his average appearance.

Ryan Bland also has a "brother" Brandon Bland, who presumably looks identical.

Small Tooth
A green tiefling-orc, so-named by his supposed orc tribe who saw his tusks as smaller than most Orcs.

The Small Tooth disguise was made partially real when G'aetan took an Essence of Rakshasa. This gave him naturally green skin as well as curved horns, yellow cat-like eyes, and sharp claws. G'aetan eventually gave up this essence as an apology to Ara for appropriating tiefling blood.

Personality
A risk-taker at heart, G'aetan took to a life of crime for the thrill. His perceptiveness and wit served him well in crime. G'aetan is a trickster through and through, taking pride in outwitting and outmatching opponents. His greatest skills are as a master of disguise, taking on many faces in an effort to throw off his enemies or gain their trust.

His devotion to the Voice of Markham came from a wish to improve the conditions of the lives of Markham's citizens. G'aetan is altruistic and good at heart, despite living most of his life as a petty thief.

Background
G'aetan was born in Markham, the youngest of a small Quarterling Family. Born into poverty, G'aetan quickly turned to a life of crime to survive and took on his alter ego, abandoning his birth name of Arthur.

He later joined the Bolt Street Boys and aided them as heists. His team was lead by C'tau and included Shifty Jim and Emil. The group carried out heists across Gaenrun, stealing from the rich and lining their pockets, with G'aetan acting as a medic for the group. G'aetan gained enough funds to help his parents and older brother escape Markham.

He continued with his life of crime until he began recieving visions from a benevolent god, the Voice of Markham. It began to show him the suffering of Markham's citizens and lead him towards good deeds. This ultimately convinced him to abandon the Bolt St. Boys, betraying them by stealing a bundle of coins meant for the Fog Hounds.

Trivia

 * Tied directly into his mercurial identity, G'aetan has changed his race (from Quarterling to Tiefling), his class (from Trickster to Vengeance cleric) and his alignment (from Chaotic Good to Chaotic Neutral).
 * All of these changes were eventually reverted back sessions later.


 * G'aetan is the first character to have broken a pact with the Author.
 * He is also the only person to not become a Warlock after making his pact, instead negotiating becoming a "cleric" of the Author.
