==History==

As a mercenary leader who fought for his livelihood, Gilbert happened to be in the [[Highland Kingdom]] when he was hired by the [[Highland Army]]. During the [[Dunan Unification War]], he participated in the first assault on [[Muse City]] but was convinced to switch sides mid-battle by [[Flik]] and [[Viktor]], who had met Gilbert when he was hired by Muse in the past. Following the battle, Gilbert continued to serve with the [[New State Army]] through the [[Dunan Unification War]] as an infantry captain.

~~While betraying~~ a ~~contract is a poor action for~~ a mercenary~~, following someone like~~ [[~~Luca Blight~~]] ~~who would slaughter women~~ and ~~children without thought was a pretty unconscionable thought~~ to ~~most~~. ~~Gilbert especially felt that~~ doing so, ~~when~~ he ~~had~~ left his wife, [[Mary]] and son, [[Thomas (Suikoden II)|Thomas]] behind ~~in [[Zexen Federation|Zexen]] to pursue employment in the first place, would be an unforgiveable act~~.
