Character History:
He was born the second son of a minor noble house and
such lacked litle, though his older brother who he
came to worship in time in truth was the son of the
prior wife of his father.
Such his brother was almost 10 years older than him
and didnt always want him along with him, however it
didnt stop Gadd from looking up to him and it was his
brother who started through games to learn him the use
of a sword, though they used sticks to practise with.
He also had a 4 year older sister who used to babysit
him, though he disliked her games and the ways she and
her friends often made fun of him, and lured him into
their pranks. Then when caugth they made sure he got
the blame.
At 7 his world changed when his brother came home and
told that he was gonna join the children of light. His
parents suported him in this both out of love and
because he would be figthing the dark one. Gadd
however was sad to loose his brother, though his
brother made him promise to take care of their sister
and look after her, and then told him if he did so
then he would come back for him one day.
Due to this Gadd put aside his resentment for his
sister and slowly the two of the grew closer. All was
then quiet for a time and he started learning more
strucutered how to figth as he grew slowly into a
youth over the next 4 years. Then one day they had
some guests for dinner, a woman and two men with cold
eyes. When he got up the next morning he saw his
sister cryig into the neck of his mother. He wondered
what was happening and was told that she would have to
go with the woman to Tar Valon, this was for his
sisters own good and she would learn to become an Aes
Sedai as the woman was.
Some weeks later he included this in his monthly
letter to his brother wondering when he would come to
get him, cause now he was all alone with his parents,
and he was bored.
2 months later he woke in the evening to a lot of
noise and looked out the window seeing the stable on
fire, then he saw white clad men and woman kill the
servants trying to save the horses and property. He
ran to find his parents, though when he neared the bed
room he got a feeling something wasnt rigth and he was
very carefull when he peaked in, he saw 3 men in
there, his father was held by two while the last was
beating his mother. The man was yelling at her
claiming she was breeding darkfriends. Then before he
could do anything he saw the man stab her in the chest
several times, he knew there was litle he could do
less to get himself killed.
However doubt was runing through him what would he
have left if he didnt do anything, then the man turned
towards his father and for a brief moment he caugth
sigth of his face, though years had passed he
recognised his brother, then watched horified as his
own brother slit the troath of his father. He felt
stunned and it was only when he heard his brother tell
the other men to go find the last spawn of the dark
his father had breed and told him was his brother to
him that Gadd could react.
Silently he slipt into the neighbour room hoping his
brother would direct them to his bed room instead. He
sliped out of the window who turned to the backside of
the house towards the forest, and then ran hunched
into the forest. After running for half an hour he had
luck and came upon a horse, from there he traveled as
far as he could that nigth, hunched over the
horseback. Come dawn he looked towards the rising sun,
the same sun that had adorned the robes of the men his
brother had been with. Then and there he swore that he
would get his brother back for betraying his promise
to him, instead of coming to get him he had comed to
kill him. He had robbed Gadd of the one place he knew
of home, but no longer would he have a home. He signed
up for the army when he reached the next town, then
spent some years as a runing boy before he was given
soldier training.
At 18 he was on his 6th tour towards the bligth when
he got drunk one nigth with one of the other soldiers,
or so he thougth. As the nigth passed he told his
storry to the man who offered him more to drink, then
he sudenly felt dissy and the world turned black.
When he woke the next day he was in a hut, the fellow
soldier was now in company with several other men,
Gadd was told that if he joined them then he would get
help geting his brother back. After some thougth Gadd
then swore himself up to become what his brother had
claimed him to be wrongfully, he became a darkfriend
and with a satisfaction. The hate towards his brother
had over the years consumed him and he found it a
bittersweet revenge to go and become what his brother
had said he was. He started looking forward to the day
he could look into his brothers eyes before dealing
him the death stroke telling him he had been wrong.
Then to thank him that he had put him on the rigth
trail where he had belonged as he would never have if
it hadnt been for him.
His dream came true some weeks after he turned 21 and
with his brother out of the way he focused on geting
as much fun out of life as he could, while serving his
new lord and master to repay for the help in geting
his revenge. At 22 he got the orders to meet a woman
in Illian and there he was included into her band of
roughlings. It was he thougth as good a life as any,
he still got all he needed, just now he didnt have to
pay for it, he took it when he wanted.
