Their pelt holds soft tans, creams, and a sandy hue splashed across the front of his shoulders and chest. The lightness of his maw lends itself to the softness of his features, the colors of his pelt giving themselves over to a look of softness, with neither the hardness of stone-based hues or nor the aggression of inherently fire-based hues. Gallagher’s eyes peer out at the world with a quiet expressiveness, muted emotions but emotions nonetheless; they hold a pale blue hue, making them a bit sensitive to the light. Their skin holds a pale hue, the pads of their paws holding some callouses but, nothing suggesting a particularly difficult life, the paws of a scholar no doubt.
Gallagher holds themselves with confidence, nothing suggesting a meek disposition. The highlands did not raise a child who holds themselves with a lack of confidence, who holds themselves as if they apologize for existing. Gallagher has pride within their stance, and a surefootedness within their gait.
There are no distinguishing scars upon their bodice, nothing that would mark them as aggressive, feisty, or dangerous. There exists a few small scars from childhood, a few scars upon the pads of their paws from papercuts or plant pricks, but nothing out of the ordinary, nothing that points to a life of hardship or abuse.
Mild scaring from the third battle of the war; marks upon their leg and throat. Due to low HP, they sustained permanent damage to their hind leg, leaving them with a limp for the rest of their life. The marks on their throat have turned into scars that are mostly hidden by their fur unless they look up.
They are a gentle-hearted soul, wishing no ill will upon anyone that they encounter. Gallagher is often seen as soft, and weak because of this tendency to be gentle, bordering on pacifism in their behavior. The only key difference separating the two is the fact that Gallagher feels no qualms about fighting – when it’s needed. They do not seek to avoid it, but they do not seek to incite it either. They believe that there is a time and place for it but does not see the purpose of unnecessary violence. Gallagher often comes off as quite harmless, and while they have the capacity to hurt, they simply don’t see the point in it.
Gallagher is a studious individual, finding passion in learning and studying things. Biology – flora, and fauna specifically – is their true passion, the knowledge of which they simply cannot get enough of. Gallagher is willing to learn anything and often finds themselves borderline obsessive over new things as they begin to learn. The old books and the knowledge that resides within them is an invaluable thing in Gallagher’s mind, as well as the knowledge stored in the life stories of those around them.
Soft-spoken is an easy way to describe Gallagher. They rarely raise their voice and rarely show anything beyond a soft warmth in their voice when they speak. They come off as shy if one bases it only on the way that they speak. Gallagher, however, is not quite shy, but this soft-spoken ness is something that has persevered since childhood, even when Gallagher themselves had been a bit rambunctious.
Gallagher subscribes to the Jacobite political party and holds firmly to those beliefs that are present. While, they are not overly zealous about it, or particularly verbal about their political stance, there are moments in which a particular passion can come about, and they're heavily involved in many of the happenings for his party because of this.
Charitable is an easy term to describe Gallagher. They are more than willing to give to those less fortunate or to help in any way that they can. This behavior was instilled in them by their father, a charitable man in his own right, who gave himself to the betterment of society as much as he could. Gallagher hopes to emulate that as much as they can, and they hope that their path through the college will give them a better ledge to do so.
Since becoming a parent, Gallagher has turned more towards the importance of family than they previously had been. Their child, Rowan, holds a valuable place in their heart, one that can never be replaced — especially considering that they never thought that they would help in the creation of a child.
Gallagher partook in the last battle of the War of 1710, leaving them a little more nervous than they previously had been in life. They still have nightmares from it all, and they know that their choice to participate in something that had seemed like a lost cause could have cost them dearly in the form of their life. It has impacted their life more than they truly know, however.
