HISTORY
History:
Gambit was adopted as a baby by a Guild of thieves in New Orleans. It was here how he developed his agility and skills as a thief. During his time there he became part of the family, however his adoptive father beat him. He was forced into marriage with the daughter of the Assassins guild leader, Belle Donna Bourdreaux, (whom he had had a childhood romance with) to form a truce between the two guilds however their wedding was a tragedy as Belle Donnas brother challenged Gambit to a duel not wanting his sister to marry a mutant, at the end of which the brother was dead.
Gambit was driven out to keep the peace between the guilds. He left the guild abandoning his wife and ran to New York, he mind in disarray Gambits powers went out of control, he started destroying things without thinking of it. It was in this state he met up with Nathaniel Essex, Essex seemed to have the power to help Gambit, but in return Essex wanted Gambit to work for him. Gambit did so and got help with controlling his powers, working for Essex Gambit helped him in destroying certain mutants and humans that hindered Essex’s plans (of which Gambit knew nothing of). After A few months Essex told Gambit that he was no longer needed and was kicked out of his care.
Gambit became a street magician, using his powers to create ‘magic’. He tried to ignore the things he had done in the past but he couldn’t. He met Professor X once, he offered him a place at his School but Gambit refused to take offers from anyone after the experience he had with Essex. When a little girl came to him for help after her mother had died Gambit did his best to help her, hoping to repay his wrongs with good acts. When Gambit came across the people who had killed the girls’ mother they ridiculed him for being a mutant. He released his power on them and charged the leaders head blowing it open. He realised then that no matter how hard he tried people would always hate him as a mutant he vowed revenge on those who hated mutants….
Personality: Gambit is almost always cool and collected, apart from when something happens that hits him emotionally, in these circumstances he can let go of all his restrictions and often find his powers out of control. He often jokes while he fight, this is half a method of keeping his opponent of guard and partially because he finds fighting natural so doesn’t need to concentrate much.
