The History of Gaige - Borderlands

having made her debut in borderlands 2 as one of the downloadable playable vault hunters gage hails from the planet of eden 5 one of the multiple moons that orbit the gas giant of eden while we've never seen eden 5 as of yet by the sounds of it it appears to be a fairly peaceful world with a developed standard of living in modern technology when we're first introduced to gage she's an 18 year old high school student living with her parents her and her dad have a particularly great relationship with each other the drama comes in with gage's school life you see she starts up her own echo log series online where she documents her life to her subscribers as she tells her school is hosting a science fair but one of the girls named marcy holloway really gets on her nerves in more ways than just one she's almost the exact opposite of gage in every way while gage is interested in things like the vaults and hyperion sieging pandora marcy is more interested in gossip and celebrities you see gage for her science fair has conceptualized something that she refers to as project dt it's meant to be a robot that combats bullying into school and beats the crap out of bullies when needed she goes through multiple revisions of its design basically the idea is that if you deploy a dt unit in a school environment it's going to clamp down on bullying by finding beliefs and beating the crap out of them during the process she accidentally cuts her arm pretty badly with some sheet metal and decides to cut it off and replace it with a cybernetic one that could control her dt unit remotely with just her arm i just started work on the third revision of the dt project and while i'm tinkering i slice my arm with some sheet metal not a big cut it barely goes like halfway to the bone and it occurs to me i could just jet the wound with an insta health and get back to circumventing the touring chip with a heck or circuit reintegrator or i could kill two birds with one stone see i could never figure out a good method to quick summon the dt but as blood began to spurt from the gash in my forearm i realized it a cybernetic limb i could program all of dt's digit stroke data into one robotic arm and then use that to summon dt at any time any place so i figure what the heck and i slice off the rest of my arm with a particle saw and then my dad's all like oh and blood's like going everywhere but a few hours a few pints of blood later i built a metal arm strong enough to smash concrete yes soul metal marcy on the other hand no pun intended stole gage's early concepts of the dt unit and decided to pass them off as her own calling them crime buster bots marcy's father who owns holloway robotics tells this news to reporters which makes headlines instead of combating bullying marsy's concepts are sold to the police force which gage describes as the galaxy's most corrupt police force what the hell sorry my newsfeed just picked up an article with mercy's name on it local student mercy holloway has made a technological breakthrough which will change the face of law enforcement forever no i don't think so her new invention which she calls the crime buster but wait what uh hello that is my design marcy ripped off my science fair project idea okay no crimebusterbot will use destructing claws thermasonic lasers and quantum duplication to help law enforcement agencies subdue dangerous criminals mercy what the hell she completely ripped off my dt design except instead of using it to stop bullying she's given it to the galaxy's most corrupt police force mercy you are such a oh you complete tools and a name that name sucks crimebusterbot [ __ ] are you kidding me despite being an inferior iteration of gage's design marcy's father paid off the science fair judges winning marcy first place and gauge third everything sort of went wrong for gage as once marcy had won she began gloating and rubbing it in her face this began a back and forth between them which resulted in marcy shoving gage triggering gage's dt unit to swipe marcy with its digi-struct claws due to a miscalibration by gage the previous night the claws instantly caused marcy to explode as you could expect this didn't go over too well with either the school or the authorities she was expelled and set to be placed under arrest okay anyway mercy started gloating she started pointing and laughing at me and then she pushed me it's okay that's when things got messy deathtrap recognized marcy as a threat so he gave her a quick slash with his destruct claws no big deal that's what it's supposed to do and i must have miscalibrated them last night when i was adding the discord circuits because the second his claws touched marshy's skin she kind of like um okay she exploded she liked everywhere it's skin things uh eyeballs i don't know it was gross anyway sorry after they finished cleaning up marcy and the auditorium i was escorted to the principal's office which i've never been to before and i found out that i wasn't getting expelled or arrested for what death trump did to marcy i'm getting expelled and arrested for what death trap did to marcy and marcy is not getting any sort of recourse for what she did to me which was a serious shove and i'm traumatized because to avoid this her father helped create a distraction so she could escape they decided that she needed to hide somewhere the police and the crime buster bots couldn't find them and so she booked a ticket to the planet of pandora i called my dad and got him to create a distraction he's very brilliant with things like that and i'm not going to go into the details about it but let's just say that it involves a golf cart and a lot of gasoline good job dad so that i could slip away so anyway long story short i'm currently echo casting from the cozy confines of a trans-planetary shuttle dad and i figured i should probably head somewhere where the cops and their crime buster bots couldn't find me so so after a teary farewell i love you daddy i grabbed a ticket to pandora which i i mean i i i've always been kind of interested in vault hunting but who knows maybe here my talents will actually be appreciated and i won't go to jail for being brilliant third place i mean seriously bastards she stowed away on a train which just so happened to be a trap set by handsome jack containing the vault hunter zero maya axton salvador and krieg it's not until the train actually crashes in windshield waste that she meets the other vault hunters and decides to tag along with them in pursuit of the vaults because the holloway family is incredibly rich gage gets a bounty placed on her head for 82 billion dollars though that's never officially seen in game and this is where the events of borderlands 2 take place she alongside the other 5 vault hunters joined the crimson raiders and put a stop to handsome jack all while opening the warrior's vault we learn in the wedding day massacre dlc that she actually developed a crush on sir hammerlock nah the boys at school thought i was too nerdy but if hammerlock ever switches sides i am going to lock that down it makes her even more eager to save his life during the son of cromerx dlc as she's frequently thirsting over him but in this dlc various assassins are enlisted by sparky flint to kill the characters before gage's assassin has the chance to kill her her father takes the liberty of killing them for her dear gage dad here hope pandora is fun heard marcy's dad sent some mercenaries your way so i sabotaged their transport and oh my god you are the best dad ever anyway after everything is said and done throughout their journey she would become particularly close with axton going on various missions with him and calling him a quote-unquote unparalleled stud one mission the two were sent on was to the planet of eptop to open a vault here they ran into hammerlock's sister aurelia and while lilith did initially order the execution of all of the pre-sequel characters she then retracted that order and demanded they bring her back to sanctuary which they do quite begrudgingly i might add hello sanctuary guess who's back from hunting vaults on other planets did you miss us and i'm the nerd i mean what's the deal here you guys first lilith is like hunt the vault on eptop and then she's like don't kill the other vault hunters bring back the one chick you found war is coming ooh you brought back a new vault hunting buddy i want to meet her no you don't aurelia is the meanest what's all this about athena and some guardian and war um i'm athena i was relating to present company the story of how jack rose to power gage like the others would eventually leave the crimson raiders she perhaps may have had to go into hiding because the takedown of handsome jack was big news and the holloway family began to hone in on her location holloway robotics has only since grown and expanded their production of the crimebuster bot and it's clear based off the echologs in between the events of borderlands 2 and 3 that they haven't forgotten their daughter and they've continued their search for gage she would stay hidden for quite a long time as between the events of borderlands 2 and 3 are 6 years being now about 24-25 she seems to have developed a bit of an alcohol problem primarily when it comes to margaritas it turns out something she took up the hobby of was wedding planning we know she had one experience planning dr zedd's wedding which didn't go too well we have had some hiccups but this isn't the worst wedding i have planned by a long shot the only way zed's wedding could have gone worse is if he'd actually gone through with it bullet dodged well actually a lot of people weren't able to dodge despite this failure she would get another chance to plan another wedding sir hammerlock reaches out to plan his wedding with wayne wright which she accepts and this is where the events of borderlands 3's dlc the marriage of wainwright and hammerlock take place while her entry to the planet of xylorgos is met with a crashed landing she quickly meets the new vault hunters which she gets along with quite well tasking them with assisting her makes sure the wedding goes right things obviously don't go right when wainwright gets possessed by the leader of the cult of giphian on the planet gage and death trump are capable of rescuing him though the rest of the dlc she works to try and right this wrong she at one point against her better judgment lends out death trap to assist the characters while they find eleanor's fusion reactor gage determines that she can upgrade death trap in the process while eleanor would try and stop this by making the ship's reactor go critical thus overcharging and incapacitating him gage would believe he was dead until he gets back up even more powerful than he was before now with a piece of gythian's heart lodged into his face after this she guides the vault hunters who proceed to take down eleanor and the cult but as for gage she's there amongst the others to wed hammerlock and wainwright in front of githian's heart they all return to the lodge where gage proceeds to enjoy some margaritas some other fun facts about gage are that she likes cupcakes hot chocolate and her favorite color is purple as well as she dislikes country music but for now that does it for the history of gage if there are any other characters you'd like to see me do the history of then be sure to let me know in the comments below and until next time i'll see you in the next video [Music] you
