BECAUSE HE'S A DEMON CANNIBAL THAT RIVERDANCES IN A PONCHO
Gale
Clothing/Appearance:
To begin: Gale doesn't really change his day-to-day outfit. Few members of the Embryon do in any significant way. He spends both games in the tribal uniform, which you can see in the picture above. It's not obvious at first, but that is a variant of a corset he is wearing. I. Yeah. Much of the grey parts of his outfit (the legs and hips especially) are armored for combat. The orange splash of paint on his hood is the Embryon's color, and it never comes off except when Gale sleeps. And even then, it will come right back on the second he wakes up. The Junkyard cannibals have unnatural hair and eye colors. Gale's eyes are bright green, as seen in most of his icons, and when he's angry or hungry, they will flash yellow like a cat's. His hair is also bright green, but most of it is hidden underneath his hood. It's still clearly visible from the front, however. Gale is of somewhat-taller-than-average height, like 5'11", and he is pretty darn thin. Because of the demon virus Gale doesn't eat regular meals. He usually only eats once per day. It's enough to keep himself from starving and going insane, but he is still skinny. Eating normal food will not add weight onto him -- he can eat a billion cookies and not gain an ounce. Since his arms and legs are exposed in his uniform, your character may notice that he's got some good muscles. Also of note are his completely inexplicable Hips That Don't Lie.
The Atma on the left leg isn't something he hides; if you've spoken to him or seen him, you've most likely noticed it. To most people, it looks like a tattoo. Close-up. It will glow bright neon green like his hair and eyes when Gale is a) transforming into Vayu, or b) going berserk.
On that tangent, when Gale hunts or is in non-shooting combat (note: proficient with assault rifle) he will be in his demon form: Vayu. The precursors to transforming into Vayu are two things: his eyes will glow yellow, and green lines will travel from his Atma to cover his entire body. This icon is a better illustration. As Vayu, he... well, look at the picture. He's a ball of cabbage with teeth. :|b His feet are the sharpest part of him in this form, and when he attacks physically, they become blade-like. This is why his normal attacks look like he's dancing.
This hasn't come up yet, but if it does, here is a picture of Gale in his berserk form. Berserk is halfway between human and demon. Gale will be in much, much less control of his mental facilities while retaining this form, so if you see him like this, you had better hope you're faster than him. Note: You are not faster than him.
Habits/Mannerisms/Body Language:
In conversation, Gale tends to not move more than is entirely necessary. This is habit from being raised in a war environment. Excess movement got you spotted and killed easily. When he does, his body language is surprisingly open; as in the top picture, he frequently keeps one hand on his hip and his other hand will be in an open gesture. The only really odd mannerism he has is that he will sometimes touch the middle of his forehead. It's reminiscent of when a person pushes their glasses up their nose, only Gale doesn't wear glasses. It's definitely a noticeable habit, and one expressed in some of his icons.
If he's hunting, ie, in demon or berserk form, he moves very quickly. He'll still move pretty damn fast when not hunting, but he canonically dodges bullets, so he's got quite a bit of speed on his side. He'll also growl, which sounds uncannily similar to the way a lion does.
If he's in a position where he really wants to comfort someone, he'll probably place a hand on their shoulder or arm. He's not a person who initiates touch unless they're a comrade, and that's about the extent he'll go to. If you are someone he's comrades/friends with, you are free to hug him. He won't object, but it's not something he's used to, either. This is on-par with the fact that Gale hardly ever goes to lengths to soften his words. He's very blunt, and doesn't see a problem with this.
Current Residence:
The Embryon cabin, which is situated underneath the Victorian cabin.
Typical Daily Routine:
Gale wakes up at the same time every day. However, he only ever goes to the Mess Hall on Tuesdays, so he doesn't eat food at breakfast-time. Since discovering the Library, Gale has taken to reading every book on every subject he can find. This is what he does with... most of his free time. Around mid-afternoon, he'll take off for the Caves of Despair, and sometimes he'll stop by the cabin to see if his comrades want to come with, since it's safer to go hunting with more party members. This is his only meal for the day, but it's not that scarce. They'll spend hours in there, as long as it takes for everyone to get a full meal. Afterward, he'll shower (since he'll definitely be messy after doing that for several hours) and if it's late into the evening, he'll head back to the cabin and talk to the tribe. These days, he is honing his chess skills at night before he goes to sleep.
Favorite Haunts:
The Library, the Caves of Despair, and the Mess Hall on Tuesdays. He does like to take frequent walks around camp, particularly in sparse areas. Gale likes to explore camp in general.
Do they make their own bed?
Probably.
