She is currently Millennium Break's commander on Palisade. She also directs the Blue Channel and other guerrilla cells. She has been described as "revolutionary deep state" and a functionary to the powerful whose institutional knowledge makes her essential.[1]

Appearance

She is a Black woman who has vitiligo,[note 1] and is likened to the model Amy Deanna. She wears a lot of red, gold and black.[2]

As her alter ego Saint Dawn, she hides her identity with metallic, golden face paint forming a “major sector” geometrical pattern on her face, covering her eyes, forehead, and cheeks.[3]

In her first appearance ("SHORESIDE RECOVERY - DINNERDATE") she wears a black, form-fitting synthetic fabric suit with red piping and a golden necklace that doesn’t clasp around the front, but hangs around the back of her neck. Her hair is in a natural pompadour that curves to the side, with cornrows, and decorated with a fancy barrette.

At the funeral in "A Palace During a Wake", she wears a red dress with very wide puffy shoulders. It's shaped like a triangle or a pizza slice.

In "HOUNDs Pt 2", she is described as wearing a "beat to shit" dress uniform.

Personality

Gucci is idealistic, clever and rich. She has an air of "being completely in the right place wherever she is" due to her history as a Kesh noble.[2] Though she is committed to working against the Principality, her priorities are "macro-scale" rather than focused on individuals and she steers away from actions that might "turn the masses against her".[4] In PARTIZAN, she favored the Party of the Masque precisely because of concerns over optics.

History and Involvement

Gucci grew up wealthy. She attended the Nideo school Artwright (as did Veronique, after Gucci graduated). She also grew up with Clementine, although Gucci is a year or two older.

PARTIZAN

Gucci (as Saint Dawn) interfered with the Rapid Evening's attempt to recover the body of the Divine Past by attempting to kidnap the scientist Cardiff Reach. She later hired SBBR to steal information on Past's crash from a Palace facility in Orzen and participated in the theft.

Valence invited her to the conference that established Millennium Break, and Gucci and her HORIZON crew agreed to join. She quickly became an influential figure and was involved with organizational efforts for various operations. She was injured during the conflict in Vigil City over the Equiaxed commune.[note 1] After Millennium Break took Cruciat, she and Apparatus Aperitif led diplomatic talks with the Isles of Logos, and her side of Millennium Break, which was in favor of a slower, ideological campaign, emerged as the Party of the Masque.

After "Operation: Shackled Sun", the Party of the Masque appeared to have waned more or less completely.

PALISADE

As of "HOUNDs" Pt. 1 and 2, Gucci has abandoned her identity as Saint Dawn. Her family has been denounced by the Principality, Nideo propagandists decrying "how far the House of Garantine has fallen".[5] By the beginning of PALISADE, she is the commander of Millennium Break's operations against the Principality's occupation of Palisade.

Relationships

Clementine Kesh

She and Clementine grew up together doing rich people sports and continued to be friends as adults. They were mechanically rivals in PARTIZAN, and initially suspicious of each other due to their separate clandestine activities.
