History
Born somewhere around the 1850s, even Gideon cannot quite recall when it was that he came into existence. What he can tell you though from hazy memories a rough childhood, is that the “Wild West” was not quite the glamorous place that movies nowadays make it out to be. Far from being places with exciting gunfights and the heady highs that came from the gold rush, Gideon remembers well the terror that came from being a bystander in those fights and the plagues and pestilence rife at the time. He also remembers well how expensive food got at times, and the feeling of going to bed night after night with an empty belly, or with a fear of a bad harvest.Had it not been for a beauty coming into town in his early twenties by the name of Clarabelle, Gideon would have packed up what he needed and walked across the country if he needed, to find somewhere a little greener. As it was, he did meet Clarabelle, and he found himself very much rooted in place. While he was a humble bakers assistant, she was the beautiful daughter of a mine owner, and very much out of his league in every definition of the word.
Had it not been for a chance encounter in the bakery one day, he would have been sure that she would not have known his name at all. From the very first moment, a connection was formed. Despite them both knowing her father wouldn't approve of their courtship, Gideon still began to pursue her modestly. A small bouquet of wildflowers here, a specially baked loaf of bread with the very best flour there, while he could not afford the showiest of gifts, they were always heartfelt.
Unfortunately for Gideon, as well as things seemed to be going, and despite feeling as though things were going his way for the first time in his life, it was not destined to continue. A particularly bad wave of influenza hit the city that first winter after her arrival and unfortunately, Clarabelle succumbed to the fever. Unable to remain in a town with such awful memories, Gideon packed up his belongings and boarded the first coach he could out of town.
As the years moved on, Gideon found himself hopping from town to town, never remaining in one place for more than 10 or so years. While Fae was hardly a hidden species, he was well aware of how some of his kind were hunted for their blood by some. As a result, Gideon always felt it wise to keep on the move. Apart from anything else, if he kept moving, it would be hard for him to get attached to someone like Clarabelle once more.
Despite everything he has told himself though, about never remaining in one place for too long, Gideon has been in and around the Canton Lake area for close to 50 years. Originally, working two towns over, he slowly found himself drawn to the curious little town and mix of characters. So, when a job came up at the Vets in Town, Gideon found himself drawn to take up the post. Living just outside of the towns limits on a smallholding, Gideon lives a pretty simple existence going to work, coming home, tending to his vegetable patch and looking after his menagerie of rescue animals.
Things
- After years of working in and around animals, trained to be a vet around the 1950s. He likes his job as it's something that doesn't change a whole amount over time.
- Has a vegetable patch at home he is very proud of. Despite the easy of going to a store nowadays to purchase things, he quite enjoys the simple pleasure of growing things like he did as a child.
- Hates the current throwaway culture that exists nowadays. As a result, some of his clothing can look a little shabby and dated as he does not get rid of it until its falling to shreds (and even then he re-purposes the material).
- Has the suitcase he left Carson City with under his bed, which is filled with trinkets of a long life.
- Due to how old he is, he finds it hard to form meaningful attachments with humans, as he knows how it will kill him when they die. He likes to think of himself as a travelling on the outside of society, quietly observing.
