Instructor Gailen

Instructor Gailen is a Gudersnipe School Instructor active during the mid-to-late Sixth Age. He is most notable for overseeing the construction and launch of several unmanned probes to advance Gudersnipe's scientific explorations following the Kamian Succession Wars, and for the Gailen Fleet Revision. He was the chief Instructor of Hunter Jusenkyou.

Early Life

Born Roberto Gailen in A.Y. 6768, Gailen attended Gudersnipe School (like all Instructors), and fought in the Kamian Succession Wars. He directed the battle of the Don't Pass Line, still considered one of the major turning points of the war.

Following the de-armament at the end of the Succession Wars, Gailen applied to become Instructor at Gudersnipe School, and was allowed to bypass the normal service requirments based on his war record. This made him the youngest official Instructor in Foundation history.

The Cabaret

The Cabaret was the code-name for an elite team of tacticians hand-picked by Gailen, who formed the real tactical genius behind the famous battle. Their true identities were kept secret even to the Foundation, and many of them appeared ordinary aides and attachés to the Supreme Commander.
