Gaston

Physical Description

A Gaston basking in the limelight.

Gastons typically have black hair, chiseled facial features, as well as a muscular build and a wide frame. While the men are muscular and chiselled the women are a tad different, as they tend to appear more lean and petite than the men in their family, but make no mistake that a female Gaston is still just as strong if not stronger than their male counterparts. Gastons are naturally charming and strong, despite being humans they are easily able to keep up with powerful monsters and defeat them in combat. Gastons are all relatively human looking, with a few variations varying from Gaston to Gaston.

History

Tracing the Gaston bloodline to the original Gaston from long ago, his power has been passed down throughout the ages with his blood. Due to Gaston's incredible physical prowess and charm finding a suitable woman to pass on his genes is merely a chore to say the least, however birthing a powerful Gaston requires mutual love and respect between the two parents and thus only meaningful relationships are sought after. A Gaston's job is to defeat despicable beasts with their incredible fighting skills, to protect the world from evil is their goal.

Society

Most Gastons live in cities, towns or even villages. Gaston's go where they are needed and so they are natural nomads.

Gastons can easily make friends and make a life for themselves in a settlement of practically any race they wish due to their incredible charisma and kindness towards others, due to this trait a Gaston can stay hidden until they are needed with ease.
