Appearance

For the short time he lived, Gimlet was always pictured in a baby bonnet, the same kind his father would later wear himself. A single small brown curl poked out from beneath the cap. Slipping the bonnet onto the infant to show Russian, Senor Pink noted that the boy had inherited his face.

Personality

His life was too brief to reveal any real character. What little survives is a single image of him smiling in a photograph his parents kept.

History

Gimlet was born not long after his parents married, in the years before the Donquixote Pirates seized Dressrosa. Early in his life he came down with a fever while his father was away, and he did not recover. The loss devastated both parents. Later, with Russian sunk into a vegetative state, Senor Pink began wearing the baby's clothing and pacifier in an effort to coax a smile from her, and that act became the lifelong habit he kept up despite the mockery it drew. Gimlet holds the grim distinction of being the youngest character known to have died in the series.
