I might end up adding a spy rank; it depends on whether the other two nights get active again. If they do, Andromeda will probably end up being the general but you could definitely have Ast show Gabriel his prowess, which'd be beneficial to getting a higher rank if and when they become available. (At the moment all regular gembounds are sorted into the awakened and the diligent, unless very driven by research. It takes mutation or death to ascend.)
For now threads are off limit with gabe but group formation will begin when this quest finishes. His timeline is absolutely jam-packed!
I'd definitely love to have a thread with them at some point though, I'll tag you as soon as the quest is done. Probably in Polaris? It's Astaroth who you're wanting to enter right?
