.:History:.

Gaius's young life is a mystery to most except for himself, but as he got older and began to practice magic he met Uther and became his friend. Then soon became court physician, life was well as he secretly continued his study of magic until Uther asked him to seek our the Priestess Nimueh, he wanted his wife Ygraine to bare him a heir.

Taking the kings task he went to the Isle of Blessed and asked on Uthers behalf for his Queen to have a child. Nimueh agreed, knowing a life must be taken for one to be given. Gaius and Uther didn't know this. So when Ygraine gave birth to her son Arthur she died, Uther seeking vengeance on Nimueh blamed all magic and set a law that anyone found practicing sorcery in his kingdom would be executed.

Gaius now knew he must stop practicing magic, but every once and a while he would use it, but only at an emergency. When Uther showed Gauis the list of people to be executed for using magic, he was horrified to see Alice his beloved's name on the top. Quickly crossing it out he fled to her and warned her to leave the city.

From that day forward he was alone in his chambers, working loyally beside Uther and watching many innocent people die for Uthers own mistake. When Merlin arrived Gaius was surprised to notice the boy had magic, and warned him not to use it in public lest he wanted to be slain.

Gaius now teachers Merlin, and helps him along in his journeys to save Arthur and keep his destiny in check, as long as Albion would live then so would magic.
