Gamble was one of the Varden.
Description[]
He is described as being quite ugly, having a neck so thick, it forced his head to jut forward at nearly right angles to his shoulders, giving him a stubborn, dimwitted appearance. His repulsive look was intensified by his heavy brow with its two cliffs of matted hair — almost long enough to pull over his eyes — and bulbous lips that remained puckered into a pink mushroom, even when he spoke. He also had something of an appetite, having consumed thirteen chickens in four days
Role in Eldest[]
Gamble was charged with theft and destruction of property without offering proper recompense because he stole and ate thirteen chickens from a Surdan farmer. Nasuada sentenced him to pay a copper for each chicken he stole.
Gamble had a way with words and Nasuada knew that "No matter its rough housing, his tongue was as clever as a jester's." Nasuada asked her handmaiden, Farica, to reassign Gamble, giving him some sort of job in which he would have full rations, such as quartermaster. Prior to that, Gamble worked as a member of one of the work gangs in the quarry.
