Gib Andosk was a '''[[Wordsmith]]''' born in '''[[Gemfeld]]''' who was pivotal in the events leading to the discovery of the [[Chapter One|'''All-Gem''']].

Gib Andosk's full name is Gibandro Azgandritch Holoscandria Morobn Ondig Himtroskap Rotsehk Gillih Kismarg Lohbrag Ram Latiez Ollobango Lich Tarrasque Snogard Apprandisque Amandisque Mickey Mouse Halbert Skalbert Windtrap Mindrich Bogglo Ombogambo Andosk. He was the son of Amig and Manda Andosk. Amig, his Fatherfather, was nearly designated as a First Lord in the [[FirstGovernment Houseof Bormar|'''FirstLord''']] of House'''[[Bormar]]''' as he was the founder of histhe city's legendary LordForge Foundry.

Gib had 3three brothers, Arkypter Andosk, Kanu Andosk, and [[Talen Andosk|'''Talen Andosk''']]. When a runaway foundry fire set their hometown ablaze, nearly twenty thousand Dwarved perished, including Amig and Manda Andosk. Following the fire that destroyed Gemfeld, Arkypter and Kanu immediately left the city, and Talen and Gib were left to execute Amig and Manda's wills, splitting the items and money of the four brothers between themselves. Consequently, the two brothers became considerably wealthy. Gib elected to use his newfound wealth for philanthropical purposes.

Gib spent 15 years touring '''[[Bormar]]''' as an anthropologist, collecting information on the '''[[Grol]]''', '''[[Dwarves]]''', and various Human cultures. In his wandering studies, Gib found a chief of a human tribe, Ando Smith, whom he promptly married. Spending 4 years with his husband and the associative tribe, Ando was killed in a clan dispute, and the devastated Gib hiked on to continue his anthropological efforts elsewhere.

Two months after Ando's death, Gib entered Youghal, the home holding of [[First House|'''First Lord Voman''']] Stoutheart. Here he learned of the OOA recruitment drive to find the mythical All-Gem. Seeing the Outpost as a location to study isolated Dwarves, he boarded a boat and made the journey West.

After being introduced to the matter by [[Khestor Thidirlun|'''Khestor Thidirlun''']], Gib dedicated himself to finding the All-Gem. On the 19th of Aptag, 803 BY, Gib found the underground chamber of the All-Gem just before the Grol mercenaries of the island could find it themselves. However, the situation was complicated after the Outpost leadership learned of the treachoroustreacherous actions First Lord Voman Stoutheart in his search of the All-Gem.

Following the arrest and pending execution when returning to Bormar, Gib and Khestor continued growing close, with a serious discussion on marriage taking place. When they were released, Gib and Khestor remained unmarried, refused to help search for the disgraced Lord Voman, and lived together in the small hamlet that was once the city of '''[[Gemfeld]]''' working on philosophy and complex political discussions.

Gib later restarted his newspaper, and it became the most popular in the town. Questions about why ''Gib's Bulletin - Bormar Edition'' began at 'Issue 4' remained unanswered, and Gib would go on to write 657 Issues of the new ''Gib's Bulletin'', which was reformed into a think-piece and a collection of his life.
