Gazel Gode

About
Gazel Gode is the mayor of the town of Kathtom. He's a sickly man with a fragile health, being forced to stay in bed most of the time. Despite this, he's fairly competent at his job since he could carry out the task efficiently enough even at the time when the town was sealed by the Four Witches of Kathtom where the townsfolk where incapable of leaving.

He's usually a pretty composed and rational man, being well-informed about the different matters of the town and its citizens. He was the one that put out the request for adventurers to aid the town when the Incident with the Four Witches took place. Despite his cool-headed and sensible mind, he's not so good at negotiating, since he can look his stance pretty easily when preassured or cornered just a bit. He seems to have talent as a musician, since he carries a Music Lv1 skill, but he was never seen playing an instrument.

He has a daugther called Cith Gode, who he loves very much and is his biggest weakness. While he can more or less keep a calm demeanor most of the time, he's extremely protective over his daughter, and easily panics completely if he feels that even the slightest sign of danger is upon her, leaving no trace of his previous serenity.

After the events of Rance 02, he apparently retired due to health issues and most of the town's affairs are handled by his daughter or other people in charge of administrative roles such as Eleanor Ran.
