Gak used to be a member of the '''Bells Society'''.
Gak is natural of Tulimshar, Tonori Region.
 
Gak used to be a member of the '''Bells Society''', a secret organization in Tulimshar trying to kill the King, Efeniunkanduiti Khan. He was an acculturate member, who went to Operas and had access to important people.
 
There, he watched an opera about a princess which was kidnapped by a dragon under the sea and was found by chance by a pirate. He then bought an [[Opera Mask]] for a secret mission he had to do, which was signed by the lead actor.
 
Meanwhile. He was friend of Fawkes, a man who was pretty excitable but was not so smiley as his [[Guy Fawkes Mask|Mask]] suggest. Fawkes died in an explosion on the [[Archive:Tulimshar#Palace|Palace]] which failed to kill the king.
 
Not very after Fawkes' death, the King hired a Jester. However, the first prince, Akhendo-Al, did not like it, because the [[Jester Mask]] made difficult to see the real expression on the face of the jester.
 
Eventually the King was assassinated by a knife in his heart. Akhendo-Al noticed the Jester was missing and went after him, cornering the Jester in the Palace's Bell Tower. However, the Jester did not try to run away.
 
It was revealed the Jester was Gorrik, captain of the Palace Guard (and implied that Gak was this jester).
 
Gorrik assured he that he did not kill the king, but Akhendo-Al did not believe, and sentenced Gorrik to death.
 
'''However, Gorrik escaped.''' Renaming himself to Gak and using the [[Scissors]], he used the Landbridge to escape to Argaes South.
 
Right after arriving in South Argaes, he was surprised with the number of trees around. He quickly got lost in the wilderness, and was looking for food. Until he found a small cottage.
But the cottage was made of sweets! He quickly started then eating the wall, to sate his hunger. Suddenly, the door opened, and [[Alissa]], a witch, showed up.
 
 
Gak tried to run, but failed. She immediately started lecturing him about how much effort it was to keep the house well-maintained - Having to cook the sweets, replace them, kill vermin, and oh dear, what if it rained. Gak felt ashamed of himself.
 
He then started living with Alissa and working for her, to repay for what he ate.
During this time, he visited Turnap, the closest human settlement, to buy supplies.
Goblin attacks were very common on the area at that time, but Turnap citizens devised a way to avoid it - The [[Goblin Mask]]. He gained a mask to protect himself as well.
 
One night, a goblin tribe attacked Turnap. They believed them to be an invading tribe, and Turnap was decimated. Not long after, the Goblins attacked the small cottage as well. Gak died on that attack, trying to protect [[Alissa]].

Fawkes, however, was caught by two guards, which were also sneaking into the cellars to steal wine. They decided to execute him in the cellar, but there was a problem - they were drunk, and needed to go to the Toilet.
 
There was a tradition that before executing someone, they should be granted a last smoke. So the guards gave him a lit pipe and went to the toilet.
 
The [[Archive:Tulimshar#Palace|Palace]] exploded, and this was the end of Fawkes.

Meanwhile. He was friend of Fawkes, a man who was pretty excitable but was not so smiley as his Mask suggest. Fawkes died in an explosion on the Palace which failed to kill the king.

Not very after Fawkes' death, the King hired a Jester. However, the first prince, Akhendo-Al, did not like it, because the Jester Mask made difficult to see the real expression on the face of the jester.

However, Gorrik escaped. Renaming himself to Gak and using the Scissors, he used the Landbridge to escape to Argaes South.

Right after arriving in South Argaes, he was surprised with the number of trees around. He quickly got lost in the wilderness, and was looking for food. Until he found a small cottage. But the cottage was made of sweets! He quickly started then eating the wall, to sate his hunger. Suddenly, the door opened, and Alissa, a witch, showed up.
