    Life Story
    Gonzalo Amapola was born in the spring of 287 AC in the city of Daenshore. Born the only child to the great Madam of the infamous Don’s Rest gentleman’s club, Gonzalo was already set for a certainly unconventional upbringing, his mysteriously noble parentage and half-Ailor blood notwithstanding. Madam Ioanna Chirelli comes from a line of Cieolothar urban cretins and ne’er-do-wells of Daenshore, and she has managed Don’s Rest for decades. Gonzalo’s mother became renowned for cultivating Don’s Rest from a seedy penny brothel to a high class establishment of eclectic, cosmopolitan and exotic tastes. For years since before Gonzalo’s birth and even for much of his early childhood, the great Madam entertained and hosted for all sorts of powerful men and members of the local nobility, happily providing the luxurious chambers as a theatre for all sorts of discreet deals and undertakings.

    As a toddler and young child, Gonzalo was kept in the confines of the club’s large, manor-like compound. Though kept away from the wider world, Gonzalo grew up alongside other children sharing his sort of disposition: some half-race or another of some sort of dubious or other scandalous parentage. Soon known locally of patrons to the club as the ‘Madam’s Orphans,’ these children, including Gonzalo, eventually became employed ostensibly as in-house servants, though really operated as internal spies and messengers, lending Madam Ioanna a great reputation as a sort of mistress of secrets. Gonzalo thrived in these machinations, treating them like a kind of game. Already a bubbly and charismatically-inclined personality since he first learned to speak, Gonzalo was certainly one of the more charming and favored child servants for the various big-wig patrons. While endearing them with song and dance, Gonzalo eventually learned his own particular art of spying and scheming--though again, certainly only in good fun.

    Lush and luxurious, Gonzalo, along with the rest of his pseudo orphan siblings, enjoyed a happy and wholesome upbringing, despite the airs and auspices of the home they all share as Don’s Rest. It would be Gonzalo to be the only one daring and inquisitive enough to figure ways outside of the compound, eventually leading to some early teenage years frequently escaping into the city late at night. For some years, he lived a kind of dual life--one as a polished and cute servant for his mother and Madam by day, and a nameless half-breed street urchin at night. It was during this time that Don’s Rest and indeed the lives Gonzalo and his family of the club seemed to enjoy their own sort of golden age, owed largely by sudden patronage and sponsorship by the House Anahera, where at the time Alejandro Anahera was just beginning his early days in his short term as Chancellor. Gonzalo spent those formative teenage years getting into trouble with other street boys of the city, fashioning a nightlife for himself of a youthful naivete and free whimsy for fun, as funded by the guarantee of a plushy and privileged life within the compound walls of Don’s Rest.

    Soon, Gonzalo’s happily lived dual lives came to a harsh end when he managed to get caught up in a petty gang fight one night, finally exposing his years of escape and his escapades, a flagrant attack against Madam Ioanna’s most concrete and sacred rule: to never leave Don’s Rest unattended and unsupervised, pertinent to her agenda of a sheltered and protected life for her orphans. In the days of drama since Gonzalo’s late-night bailout, the angsty coming-of-age dramas exploded into a final demand of finally knowing his parentage, as well as his most fervent want to break away from his seemingly now monotonous life of plush luxury in the seedier airs of Daenshore politics. In a perhaps climatic sort of burst, Gonzalo learned of his father and indeed the broader machinations of the life he and all his orphan siblings enjoyed the night of the Anahera Viceroy coup d’etat, where Andrieu Anahera ordered the death of his brother, Alejandro Anahera. Overnight, the political ground of the city and indeed that western half of the Empire disintegrated from underfoot of each player, including Madam Ioanna Chierlli.

    The sudden death of Alejandro Anahera and the subsequent chaos Daenshore fell into scattered the odd family of Don’s Rest. During one of the nights of riots following the death of the Viceroy, the Don’s Rest compound was looted and burned by some enemy political agents, eager no doubt to seize the opportunity of Madame Ioanna’s weakness--or as she’d posit it, anyways. Gonzalo and two of his brothers with whom he shared no blood would find themselves on a smugglers vessel trafficking refugees from Daenshore, off down the coast and beyond the closed harbor. Soon, Gonzalo and his two brothers landed in Regalia as refugees, eager to build new lives for themselves.

    Of course, the Anahera Protectorate and its dramas spilled out in the weeks just after Alejandro’s death, where Gonzalo worked passionately among others in the underground populist rebel movements against the Lord Protector. The horrors of the Protectorate characterized a particularly sobering and traumatic period for Gonzalo, losing one of his brothers in the midst of the fighting. He eventually found normalcy in his life in the capital following the Protectorate, enjoying a life as a bard and street performer.

    Gonzalo has spent the past few years enjoying a vagabond and bohemian sort of lifestyle in the capital. He works odd-jobs, panhandles and performs for a meager living, only recently finding cheap and modest accommodation in Crookback.
