 Bio: The man the call Gavel is one scary old man, one would never think that a retired judge could actually be a serious combatant but in this case well they are wrong. Gavel is one hell of a mercenary that walked away from the bench to fight in the urban battlefield, Gavel has a very strong sense of purpose and code of honour and this man can really be considered one of the good guys unlike Lucky who the jury is still out on that mercenary. Gavel served as a judge for over thirty years and prior to that was a prosecutor for the Emerald Cities 15th district, he has sent more then his fair share of criminals to prison throughout his long career, yet one case pushed him over the edge and when he watched a innocent man come before him with obviously tainted and planted evidence and stand before him after a lengthy trial and confess just minutes before the jury finished deliberating. Confessing to the murder and rape of a socialite that the city was out for blood to avenge, Gavel’s hands where tied and he was forced to send the kid just eighteen years old off to death row for a crime they both knew the kid never committed.
         Gavel could do nothing to spare this kid from the gallows and even speaking out against the prosecutors and police would not end well for him. Gavel was tormented for many months over this case and he even tried to avoid the execution as he could’t witness a innocent man die before him knowing that the entire trial was a miscarriage of justice. Though as much as Gavel tried to avoid the execution, he couldn’t escape and was forced to sit front row a the celebrity murderer was brought out with great pomp and circumstance. Gavel’s stomach churned as he watched as the kid was noosed, given his final words witch where a tear filled pleading of his innocence, he was then hooded and bound. Gavel just sat their watching as the bloodthirsty witnesses sat with glee, the media capturing ever aspect of the execution and Gavel could still hear the kids pleas and tears as the warden approached the lever and awaited for the clock to strike midnight.
       Gavel hoped the letter he sent the governor anonymously would call for a stay of execution, Gavel sat their with his pocket watch in hand praying the red phone would ring in time. Once the clock stuck midnight, the warden threw the lever, the trap door flew open and the kid fell to his death. The phone never rang, the witnesses shared a smile and started to mill out as the press captured the last images of the condemned, Everyone involved was happy with how smoothly Seattle’s first execution had gone since the death penalty was reinstated. All but Gavel, who left the witness room, walking out of the prison and drove home with only sadness in his heart and his stomach churning. He had not only watched an innocent man hang for a crime he didn’t commit, he watched as his son was murdered by the city and by the gavel. He drove home that night in the poring rain, with tears rolling down his cheeks, he couldn’t believe that he was unable to excuse himself from the case, he couldn’t believe he was forced to sentence his own son to death by hanging, and he was distraught cause he knew his son was framed.
       Gavel just sombrely entered his dark home, and made his way to the bedroom to just take his pain medication and lay down next to his wife and just morn the death of his boy, knowing that come the morning he would have to return to the scene of the crime to claim the body. As Gavel entered the room he didn’t see his beloved in the bed, though the bathroom light was on. He walked past the wardrobes and opened the bathroom door, what Gavel would see would bring this poor old man to his knees. the bathroom floor was covered in a mixture of blood and water from the overflowing tub. His beloved for almost forty years was laying naked in the tub with a single gunshot wound to the back of her head from swallowing the pistol that was still locked in her hand under the water. A note scrawled out on single sheet of paper was neatly placed on the bathroom vanity, and as he went for his wife he saw a family picture from the prior Christmas in her hand.
        Gavel cracked that night, and thats when he would walk away from the bench and take to the streets as a soldier of fortune. His remaining family had disowned him, blaming him for their Mothers suicide. He would now have to bury his youngest boy and his wife at the same time, his family shredded by the trial, confession, execution and suicide. Gavel had nothing left and knew that their was more people like his son out their being framed and wrongfully convicted for a crime they never committed.
      That is what sent Gavel to the streets as a true warrior for justice, one can say the man is a vigilante bringing down the guilty and sparing the innocent, but he does far more then just street justice. This man has taken his lengthy legal background and uses it to fight for the wrongfully accused and framed, he does this through investigation on the street, physical intimidation and breaking and entering. All things that a would normally never be amicable in a court of law, but he doesn’t need to bring the evidence before a judge when he can cause the police involved to come clean, the prosecutors to fall on the sword and take responsibility for their actions. Gavel has become a true champion for justice and anyone that can reach out to Gavel can ask for his help, this man will fight for any citizen facing the rope. He was forced to watch the calamity that was the first execution and he will go to his grave to make sure the innocent are not wrongfully executed.
       Gavel also fights for the streets and fights to bring down the guilty, this man tries to not kill but there are times that he is left no other alternative and he must take a life. Gavel doesn’t like to commit murder but he understands that sometimes it is needed, though he would much rather hand the guilty over to the police gift wrapped, holding all the evidence needed to hang him. This means that he might be fighting to save the innocent on death row, but he is not opposed to it, and if the first case hadn’t gone so badly and been personal Gavel might never have left the bench. This man is damaged so be careful around him, he knows he is a very wanted man for the crimes he has committed in the name of justice. The city will be more then happy to sweep this loose end up and make him go away. Gavel knows this and will fight for his freedom, and if you have ever seen this man fight I would recommend you just stay clear. Gavel carries a specialized hammer called the Skull Crusher and he is highly skilled with this piston driving weapon that when it impacts it fires off a hydraulic piston that punches through whatever it hits with the force of wrecking ball. Needless to say it makes a serious mess and very few people actually survive when hit, and when it hits the head well it does it’s namesake and literally crushes and pancakes the skull.
     Gavel is one of the good guys out there and he is fighting for justice and for the innocent, he might be a mercenary but that doesn’t mean this man is a greedy soldier of fortune like the others. Gavel has a very tight code of honour and truly believes in what he is doing, this man is speaking and fighting for people that without him would be fast tracked to the noose. Now if Gavel finds out you are actually guilty, he will cease and diciest his campaign and help speed up the process of the execution. Remember he is a former judge and prosecutor that means he has connections inside the system that are not out to get him. Gavel is more then willing to use these connections to fast track a date with the hangman if he is crossed, so this is another mercenary that you never want to cross cause if he doesn’t just kill you he can make damned sure the city does it legally.
