Personality: He pretends to act indifferent to those around him in order to protect them from getting hurt, though he is not averse to acting in a rather innocent and cute way in order to get what he wants. Yoite is a very independent individual and prefers not to rely on anyone to do things for him. He can act a bit more openly toward people he likes, but most of the time keeps an apathetic attitude because he doesn’t want to end up hurting anyone. He is not a shy person, but he doesn’t like speaking unless it is absolutely necessary.
Biography: Yoite was born into a family of music, classical music. His mother was Japanese and his Father was British, both met at a recital they played at. After getting together they decided to make a few kids and create a family orchestra. Two boys were born, three years apart from each other. The oldest was Seth, and the youngest Gabriel. Of course from birth the bothers were thrust into the world of music, learning to read music and play instruments such as the piano, harp, and violin. Among Gabriels favorite was the cello. Sadly the dream of having a family orchestra failed when it was discovered that Seth was tone deaf. Since he had no ear for music all of the musical attention was focus on Gabriel and he soon became skilled in all classical instruments. Music genres beside classical were not allowed inside the household, but once these other genres were discovered, Gabriel wanted to learn more about them, meaning of course the various types of rock music. His family was not shy on money, so he was able to buy himself a drum set, an electric and acoustic guitar, a keyboard, and of course a bass guitar. He tried each instrument and found that he enjoyed the bass guitar; it reminded him of a cello. Once it was known that he was playing with instruments meant for rock his mother and father sold the instruments and were determined to get his interests back into classical. He was only a thirteen year old boy at the time, and his parents were using his talents for money, driving him to and from recitals constantly. On one of these drives to an evening show they got into a terrible car crash. His mother died on impact, and his father died soon after the paramedics arrived. Gabriel escaped the accident with a head injury which gave him mild amnesia, he could not remember the accident nor the month afterward.
After he and his brother were put into the care of his grandparents, who lived in America, Gabriel soon picked up the bass guitar again before starting high school. With his parents gone he received more freedom to find the things he wanted to do, it was sad- but he did not miss them. He started going by the name ‘Yoite’ when he moved to America, finding that the name Gabriel never really suited him. Yoite joined a small band in high school and learned that he enjoyed playing with a band on stage. Sadly this little bad did not last long and he was on his own strumming the cords of his dear bass guitar. Once out of high school Yoite discovered a band in the making that needed a bassist, and gladly joined them with the promise that it would not die.
