Gale

"A native son of Portia, Gale has spent most of his life working for the telesis, or betterment, of his hometown. As a young man, Gale joined the brief but bloody war between the Alliance of Free Cities and the Empire of Duvos. After returning from the war he married his sweetheart, Liza. Unfortunately, Liza passed away after giving birth to Ginger. After his wife's death, Gale poured all his efforts into governing his beloved city."

He is the current mayor of Portia. He takes his job very seriously, and hopes to bring in a prosperous new age for Portia during his time in office.

He has a daughter named Ginger and a son named Gust, who is an architect working for A&G Construction. Gale has a butler named Russo, who tries to help where he can. He can often be found at City Hall. On his days off, he likes to go fishing at Portia River. On Sunday mornings he goes to church at the Church of the Light and in the evening he can be found in Peach Plaza for Fireside meeting with the townspeople.
