Personality & Attitude:
Gaspard is basically a lost soul. He is quiet, spontaneous, and just wants to live life like a normal guy. His small personality can sometimes impress some ladies, but usually the more outgoing, obnoxious guys get them over him--at least when he was younger that was happened a lot. He knows how to be a friend even though he doesn't have too many. Danny is pretty much easy-going attitude. He doesn't like hurting people(much), he can't stand it. Gaspard normally doesn't talk about others badly behind they're back, unless it really needs to be said.

Background & History:
Siege of Acre, 1189. Grand Master Gérard de Ridefort was beheaded by Saladin, and no one held the position of Grand Master until three years after his death. Though widely believed that he had no sons to carry out his name, the line of Ridefort continued with the birth of his illegimate son far from France--the late Sir de Ridefort homeland--in Liechtenstein. For almost 300 years the family lived there in secret, away from the madness swept through Europe as Grand Master Jaques de Molay burned at the stake in Paris in 1314 by order of King Philip IV. The family offered protection for the Knights that were escaping from the Church and the France army, and it was then when their line rediscovered by one of the Knights.
The current Grand Master at the time, Jean-Marc Larmenius de Jerusalem, finally allowed the family to claim their rights to join the Order despite the fact that their ancestor was not the legal son of Sir de Ridefort. The family also inherited the generous wealth that was enough to buy some acres of land at the border of the Kingdom of Liechtenstein, where they built a manor to hid the Templars. They continued to helped the Templars, though none of the children of the Ridefort ever active in the organization themselves.
In 2001, a document known as the Chinon Parchment was found in the Vatican Secret Archives, apparently after having been filed in the wrong place in 1628. It is a record of the trial of the Templars, and shows that Clement initially absolved the Templars of all heresies in 1308, before formally disbanding the Order in 1312. When this Parchment finally announced, the young Gaspard Ridefort got the permission he had been waiting for years from his parents and allowed to leave his family manor to join the Order.
It wasn't easy, the way to be a Templar, but Gaspard was one determined young man and as soon as he coming to age of 18, he left for various missions that in his 20th birthday, he had already travelled to the most dangerous places on Earth, risking his life for countless times. His flawless record awarded him the position of Under Marshal at the age of 24--then he married his fiancee, before finally decided to just stay in his current post instead trying to be a Marshal by going for more dangerous missions...He had a family now, he needed to make sure he come home intact.
Just around late 2006 he went to Ireland to track a Witch family over there; he stumbled upon the O'Reilly family and though he managed to catch them by surprise, they were able to flee and he failed to track them till now.

"...You are NOT leaving Italy tomorow, mister" Gaspard growled as their claymores met, sending sparks everywhere at the brief miliseconds before the two exchanged looks. He and his newborn daughter's Godfather were showing how to sword duel to the Sergeants, and his best friend just managed to elicit a smirk from him when the Marshal aimed for his head and Gary had to duck to keep his head intact. He threw a dirty glare to some giggling Sergeants as if telling them how they were in trouble for laughing at him, then charged back to the Marshal, this time managed to get past his defense and pressed the thin blade of his claymore against his neck.
--
He watched the Marshal as they showered together, fully realizing this might be the last time they will ever train together; the Marshal will left to Ipswich first thing in the morning after his daughter baptised; no matter how he tried to keep him there, he just won't listen. "Be safe" Gaspard sighed as he turned off the shower and took their towels, throwing one to his best partner, "I do want Gretta's Godfather returned home intact, Damien... honest"
