==Trivia==

* Losing to Gaspar when trying to recruit him will cause him to refer to the "[[God of Dice]]." This is one of very few references to any form of deity in the series.

* Gaspar's easily exploitable "double or nothing" feature when gambling with him makes him the perfect source for party funds.
