Lieutenant Gordon Zola

Lieutenant Gordon Zola was an NPC from Gravity Star, serving as the organization's espionage specialist. He was best known for his sense of gusteau and his skills at his job.
== Personality ==
Zola was a very prideful man, with skills to back up his pride. He cared deeply for his comrades, especially Moto, and had a love of gourmet cuisine.
== History ==
=== Gravity Star Campaign ===
Zola was first called on by General Stone to sneak into the Martyrian comms network and get the team their one-step-ahead lead on Octus and his plans, and this succeeded for the most part, aiding the team in saving Albus on Metran. Before they went, Moto asked Zola out with the help of the team, with Zola citing that he always knew. They hit it off immediately, with him giving her a chocolate bar before carrying her away.
After this, Zola used his gateway to the Martyrian comms network to aid the team in being ready for stopping the Paralyzer from capturing the Titan on Granaera, and helping advise Stone of Octus' activity on Varuna.
Once the team made it to Varuna, Zola had deciphered where Octus' comms were centering from and where the disruption was centered: a communications tower on the planet Tynkeria. He went alone to infiltrate the facility incognito, but not before giving Moto a sweet goodbye. While on this mission, he was allegedly killed by the Siren, breaking the hearts of everyone involved, especially Moto.
The team found out once they were able to fight the Siren that he was not, in fact, dead, merely in hiding, and he saved them from the Siren, sapping it and shutting it down. After this, Zola joined the team for the rest of their journey, but did not do much of note.
A few months after the defeat of the Exalted, Zola was greeted by his new baby boy, and he and Moto lived a happy life on Omnibius.
