Remember, there's even hazing in The Three Musketeers--D'Artagnan had to fight each of them one by one when they first metShayuri said:
Don't worry, maybe it will be fun hazing, like setting him up with a girl and then spying

And Gabriel thinks (so far at least) ...
Brice is a fine fellow, if perhaps a little stubborn at times. I won’t hold that against him though, as he’s a fine hand with a blade and pleasant company, especially when he sings, as his voice seems to attract any ladies within earshot to our locale. Sadly for him, he then seems to lose his nerve with the fairer sex, though I can’t complain as that just leaves more of the lovely ladies for me. I’ve tried to bring him out of his shell more than once, with both advice and assistance, but his nerves tend to take over rather quickly once he’s left to his own devices.
Hyancinthe is a gambler like myself, quick with his hands, but obviously not quite quick enough to avoid being caught ... at least by those with similar skills of their own. I haven’t known him for all that long, only a few months more than our newest Musketeer, Jacen, but he hasn’t yet given me reason to question his oath of service to me. I’ve found some of his abilities to be quite useful thus far in my dalliances at court, and I hope to be able to put the rest to good use as I seek out those who hurt me so deeply those many years ago.
Jacen reminds me a little of myself when I joined the Musketeer’s, though I don’t think I was ever quite so naive ... well not for quite some years at least. He shows a great deal of natural ability though, more than I if I’m honest with myself, and enough courage to make me think he’ll handle battle just fine ... despite his extremely compassionate nature. I may have to take him under my wing though, if he doesn’t soon grow out of this shyness he’s been exhibiting, as I don’t want to see him suffering like our poor songbird.
Tristan is a giant of a man who I’m glad to say is on my side, as I wouldn’t like to be fighting him in anything more deadly than a practice bout. A good companion, whether drinking or in battle, and a firm friend ... though there’s one thing I just don’t understand about the man. It’s his one glaring flaw in my mind, one which may eventually prove fatal if he’s not careful ... his inability to take advantage of an adversary unfairly. It seems a foolish notion to me, but then he’s not been through what I have I guess.
I'll call that a work in progress. So feel free to point out anything you think I may have misconstrued from what you've posted or if you think I've taken too much license with something.

Gabriel is his master. A gentlemen who has given him a chance after having tried to cheat him on a game and miserably failed against Gabriel, thanks to the curse of that witch. Gabriel seems a nice man, but behind his great musketeer looks, there seems to be more, but it isn't his concern and he would probably learn sooner or later the dark behind Gabriel's story.
Brice is the man ladies wish to get. A man with so much charm, much more than the average nobleman, which is not little. But it is irresponsible, as Hyancinthe had taste the wrath of an ignored flirt. Somehow, Hyancinthe felt that he will need to watch his master's companion before he do the same mistake than he has alreday done.
Jacen have still a lot to learn from the musketeer. He si not a noble but somehow, he quickly got Hyancinthe respect for two things, his knowledge of blacksmithing and also his innate talent to wield a blade. Rare are the person that can devellop both so well, and with his great look, he might well make his mark quickly. Also, Hyancinthe could learn a few trick from him, improving the knowledge his father have pass on him.
Tristan is the big one, the man who only presence put respect in most commoner. Over that, he is not a no-brainer like most people seems to think at first impression, even if he is not the most brillant man he knew. Having him around is always a good thing because when he invite for dinner, it is always a great one and he always tend to have enough left for the lackey.
Also, I,ve added that entry to my character sheet:
[SBLOCK=Gambler's curse]"Unlucky in the game, unlucky in love"
A night flirt have been turned down by Hyacinthe, a night where he had been offered to join a game where the aspect of gain was great. Unaware to him, that flirt was a witch who decided to curse him. She only told to Hyancinthe "Well, gambler, if you don't want to get lucky with me, you shall never get lucky again." the game had started well but he suddenly start to lose again and again. When he was about to be bankrupt, he decide to make his own luck, but after a few turns, he was caught by Gabriel. After putting the game, Hyancinthe have put into the context all the events and now undesrtand what has happen.
From that day, he has never been lucky in game, never winning more than a few gold, most of the time, losing half his stake, nor in love, where when a woman start to have some interest in him, an unexpected event break his chance with her.
But somehow, all this badluck seems to spread to people around him, when they are focusing on him. Once a day, Hyancinthe can force an attacker to reroll a critical threat roll against him. He can do this after he's seen whether it was high enough to confirm, and the attacker gets the worse of the two results.[/SBLOCK]

Gabriel
Gabriel is the man Jacen wants to become. He hangs on Gabriel's every word, imitates his every move. In Jacen's eyes, Gabriel is the essence of what it is to be a Musketeer, in skill, in valor, and in attitude. He's curious about Gabriel's past, but his deep respect / borderline worship prevents him from asking personal questions.
Brice
Brice is the Musketeer Jacen likes to just hang out with the most. For whatever reason, he seems to feel most comfortable and least 'formal' in Brice's company. He respects and envies a little Brice's skill with music and his well-traveled demeanor. He finds hilarious Brice's shyness and inexperience with women...even though Jacen himself is really no better. Of all the Musketeers, Brice is the one he most likely considers friend in addition to compatriot.
Tristan
Jacen is just plain intimidated by Tristan's sheer size, especially relative to his own boyish frame. Though he puts great effort into hiding this, trying very hard to be friendly and confident towards him...it remains true that the only person who can make Jacen hop to it with a single word is Tristan. That said, he really does value Tristan's presence as a Musketeer and respect his strength.
Hyancinthe
Of all the Musketeers, Hyancinthe seems to mystify Jacen a bit. He's never quite sure what Hyancinthe's status is, or how to address him, or if he should address him. Is he a Musketeer, or is he Gabriel's servant? He seems to know a little about everything...but some of what he knows is nothing an honest man would. And yet, Jacen likes to talk "shop" with him about blacksmithing and the craftsmanship of various tools and metalworks they see. In the end, he actually rather likes Hyancinthe in general...he's just not sure what to make of him.

A note about Hyancinthe status in the musketeer: he is known as the son of the blacksmith of the Musketeer and is in good place to replace him once he will leave, but he has spend the last year under Gabriel service for an unkown reason by the musketeer. Officially, Hyancinthe wanted to learn more about the life of the musketreer.
One thing is clear, he is not a musketeer himself.

Ah, good work so far guys. I see there was a nice match-up in two of them:
Hmm...the Ladies' Man mentoring the Pretty Boy, eh? That could be fun
Still waiting on Brice and Tristan, I believe!
