Background/Bio
Gideon was born in an obscure town on the Border. Although the family was of good standing there was very little in the way of prospects. When he was fourteen the family encountered a Companion who suggested he might have the aptitide for Companion training, and so that's where he was sent.
Trainees from the Core have a head start, in education, social status, and training - they begin at twelve. Gideon worked hard to catch up and keep up, until eventually he was indistinguishable from his peers, showing a particular gift for languages.
His career as a Companion was unremarkable, until he met Foster Knight on Greenleaf. A wealthy Alliance official, Foster had made his fortune looking the other way regarding customs and exports. They entered into a long-term contract, ostensibly so that Gideon could tutor the family's children in music and languages. In reality it was a marriage of convenience, with both parties discreetly seeking companionship elsewhere. Foster sought it with Gideon. This lasted until the coup, when Foster and his family were shipped back to Core space with the other Alliance officials and Gideon was left trying to find a new place to call home.
