Description
Father Gascoigne is a supporting antagonist and boss in Bloodborne. He is a middle-aged hunter for the Healing Church that succumbed to the scourge of the beast, the otherworldly plague that has fallen onto Yharnam. As a human, Gascoigne is a tall, middle-aged man with light-grey hair and a beard. He wore a thick, layered Hunter's garb, complete with a blindfold over his eyes (a recurring motif amongst those of the church in honor of Master Willem). In his beast-form, he becomes larger and muscular, tears in his clothing allowing tufts of silver-grey fur to jut out, his hands now tipped with claws and feet twisted into animalistic paws. His personality before he succumbed to his blood-lust, it can be assumed that he was a valorous and humbly religious man, having given the title of "father" from a foreign land (since the Healing Church has no such title). He had a wife and daughters, implying to have been a loving family man as well. As a hunter, Gascoigne is dedicated to the hunt, his own bloodlust sometimes keeping him longer than he should. His family would play a music box in order to break him of his blood-lust and bring him back home. Overtime however, his bloodlust began to consume him, his mind and body warping through the scourge of the beast. This led him to kill his wife and try to kill the player, rationalizing that they all would become beasts sooner or later. It is possible that there is a small part of his old self that is still present deep within him, reacting with pain and struggle whenever he hears the Tiny Music Box his daughter gives to the Hunter.
