Gale/Approval

Overview

Approval

Banter

Romance

Gale approves of helping those in need and doing good - generally.

Gale appreciates solving conflicts with diplomacy and elocution and approves of avoiding violence in most of its appearances. Being a "student of a page", he prefers wise, thoughtful or at least pragmatic solutions. Possessing an extremely high intellect, he values solving riddles and finding out answers to tricky questions.

Gale dislikes harming innocents, or leaving them in danger. He doesn't approve destroying or wasting valuable pieces or lore, or even missing a chance to gain precious or rare knowledge. Also, despite of being rather sincere man, he won't approve trying to unearth his secrets unless he wants to share them himself. Finally, Gale disapproves expressing contempt to gaining knowledge, to magic as a whole and particularly towards Mystra, and to his home city of Waterdeep.

The actions and choices listed on this page will raise or lower Gale's Approval.
