Appearance
Gawinn is a shorter than average with a lean build and strong shoulders/arms from his years as a gymnast. He dyes his naturally dark hair red and blond with the red rolled into dreads (and generally tied up) and the blond buzzed. A red inked paisley is tattooed on his left calf and he still sports his Tala'tala eartag.

His style of dress is largely Tala'tala inspired though he has taken to wearing (horribly ugly) sweaters as he is still not used to the chilly atmosphere of Cabeiri.

Personality
Inquisitive, bright, friendly and a tad on the naive side, Gawinn is the epitome of a Good Kid. He's also fairly competitive when it comes to sports and can be goaded into impromptu matches and displays. In losing, he is gracious; in winning he is humble and quick to praise the competition.

On Tala'tala, Gawinn is more savvy and street-smart than he is on Cabeiri. He's familiar with the dangers and the people and has no trouble manuevering around literally and figuritively.

He loves his pet chowbeast, Sheeva, and rather spoils her rotten.

History
Born and raied on Tala'tala in the city of Melkarth. Gawinn's parents were scientifically minded: his father worked as a biologist, gaining respect among his peers for the theories and papers he published; his mother was a lab assistant, happy to do the more hands on work required.

The al'Mishras left their home world for Cabeiri two years ago. The government they had spent their lives working for finally proved to be too much, too stifling, and the Colonies offered freedoms and equipment they could only dream about. Gawinn stayed behind, wanting to finish school and unsure if he wanted to uproot himself.

Six months ago he decided that being away from his family was too much and, so, he followed in his parents' footsteps and became a Cabeiri citizen himself. He misses Tala'tala, though his feelings for that world are growing ever more mixed and complex the longer he stays away, but his determined to make a new life in his new home.
