One of 13th Legion's four leaders, Gash has been with the guild since its inception. Well-versed in the game's lore and has a mastery of the game's style of play that few others can rival and is decidedly one of the best players available in the entirety of the Order of the Fallen. He also seems to be quite savvy when it comes to computers which makes him extremely useful to the guild. 

Unfortunately he seems to suffer from terrible, terrible RNG which is probably his sole weakness. When performing alchemy, engineering or enchanting, he tends to fail so badly that, not only does his materials get needlessly wasted, but it also results in huge explosions that heavily damage him, his allies or any nearby bystanders as well as destroying any object or structure caught in the blast radius. On the plus side, the explosions tend to be quite spectacular reminiscent of majestic fireworks displays. 

Real Identity

Said to be a well-to-do middle-aged business manager in Hong Kong but he has often refused to elaborate as he tends to be quite protective of his private information. He has nonetheless proven time and time again to be a good and reliable friend to his guildmates despite his preference to remain anonymous at most times. People can only wonder at his past but many agree that he has helped made the guild what it is and things would indeed be different without him.
