SURVEY

WHAT IS YOUR CHARACTER'S SOCIOECONOMIC BACKGROUND? WHAT IS THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO WEALTH?:
As a child prodigy (gifted boy, front of the classroom, big ol' nerd), Gale comes from a well-off family in one of the finest cities in Faerun, Waterdeep. He has a whole tower of his own, speaks about having had staff in his youth, and was sent to an elite wizard school where only the most fortunste pupils learn the craft. He does not seem shy about or uncomfortable with this, given how open he is about enjoying the finer things in life (having his own library and a wine cellar, for instance). He also ascended to the highest rank a wizard can achieve, archwizard, and became a God's Chosen — all before being brutally humbled by his own hubris. An orb now leeches the life and magic from him, so he feels less superior these days.

Generally, he doesn't judge others from where they come from, fueled instead by insatiable curiosity about all things and peoples.

WHAT WOULD/DID YOUR CHARACTER MAJOR IN?:
illusions, or evocation magic.

WHAT IS THE MOST INTERESTING THING THAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOUR CHARACTER?:
He banged a goddess, and then she dumped him for trying to get on her level.

DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER USING ONE SONG FROM THE EARLY 2000S:
Leave (Get Out) by Jojo, breakup song of all time.

NAME 1-3 VICES YOUR CHARACTER INDULGES IN:
PRIDE (he's the best wizard of all time), GREED (maybe he should become a god?), ENVY (other wizards are losers by comparison, to be clear).

WHAT IS YOUR CHARACTER'S LIQUOR OF CHOICE?:
Blackstaff wine, thank you.

HOW DOES YOUR CHARACTER LIKE THEIR EGGS?:
Poached. Posh boy behaviour.

IF YOUR CHARACTER HAD TO DRINK SOMEONE'S DIRTY BATHWATER, WHO WOULD IT BE AND WHY?:
Gale would drink the goddess of magic's bathwater if she ever took corporeal form because she's everything he has devoted himself to and worshipped from a tender age. Also, he's a sad sack who is not over the break-up.
