==Biography==
  +
Jastor Gallywix's father, [[Luzik Gallywix|Luzik]], was a tinker who lived and worked on Copper Street in [[Drudgetown]] on Kezan, and his mother left for a life of piracy. His father regularly tested his inventions - all of which had something to do with explosives (appropriately for goblins) - in the house, which had the potential for causing fatal injuries to both himself and his son. On his tenth birthday, Gallywix had had enough of his father's antics and thought about running away to become a pirate himself. That was before he witnessed a local street gang rough up his father for money, and steal a cookie his father had given him (from a bakery that had been destroyed in the various Trade Wars; as a result, the confection was highly rare). That inspired him to take control of his neighborhood and begin his rise to power on Kezan. First, he booby-trapped the payment to the gang with dynamite, blowing the entire gang sky-high. Then he took over, buying out the street's businesses, among them his father's tinkering business.<ref name="gallywixshortstory"/>

Many years later, Gallywix had become president of what became known as the Copper Street Conglomerate, an advisor to the [[Tinkers' Union]], a major figure in the [[Trade Coalition]], and the second wealthiest goblin in the Bilgewater Cartel - second only to [[Trade Prince Maldy]] himself. With the aid of the moguls of the Bilgewater and from [[Tek'zik Riddlevox]], Director of the Tinkers' Union, all of whom believed that Maldy had gone soft (he was known to dote over his daughter, [[Nessa Maldy|Nessa]], with whom Gallywix had fallen in love with on first sight), Gallywix initiated a hostile takeover of the Bilgewater Cartel. He bought the loyalty of Maldy's staff, and replaced his security with his own mercenaries; he even owned the land on which Maldy's manor (the site of [[Gallywix's Villa|his own villa]] many years later) was situated. Though Maldy hoped to re-buy his possessions with the money he gained from trading weapons to the Alliance, Gallywix eliminated that possibility by destroying Maldy's trade fleet. Now in total control, Gallywix exiled Maldy and his daughter from Kezan, and later arranged his (supposedly accidental) death.<ref name="gallywixshortstory"/>

Twenty years later, on the eve of the [[Shattering]], Gallywix is on the verge of losing his position as Trade Prince and views the player as his rival for the office. When [[Deathwing]] causes [[Mount Kajaro]] to erupt, his position is greatly enhanced because he holds the only ship out of Kezan. Anyone who wishes to escape the island - including the player - must use his or her life savings to purchase a ticket, later becoming Gallywixā€™s slave. The ship is en route to [[Azshara]] when they are fired upon and sunk by an [[Alliance]] vessel in the crossfire of a naval battle with the [[Horde]] just off the coast of the [[Lost Isles]].<ref>http://www.worldofraids.com/topic/17062-cataclysm-hands-on-goblin-starting-experience</ref>

The Trade Prince turns out to have survived the Alliance attack and is one of the [[Quest:Goblin Escape Pods|first goblins saved]] by the player on the island. He appears with the other goblin survivors immediately afterwards. Later, after the player rescues former [[Warchief]] [[Thrall]], Gallywix arrives and swears vengeance upon the player and the other goblins of his own cartel, using [[Foreman Dampwick]]'s rocket sling and escapes.
  +
  +
He later enslaves members of the [[Bilgewater Cartel]] and uses them as slaves in the [[Gallywix Labor Mine]]. At this point he is able to turn the player's friend (and female player's ex-boyfriend) [[Chip Endale]] to his side. After Chip's death, Gallywix begins going out with [[Candy Cane]] (the male player's ex-girlfriend).
  +
  +
The orc survivors of the naval battle eventually team up with the surviving goblins of the Bilgewater Cartel to confront the traitorous Gallywix in the conclusion of the goblin starting zone. The player and Thrall fight and defeat the Trade Prince, but Gallywix surrenders and promises to reform how he runs the cartel. Thrall allows Gallywix to remain as the Trade Prince of the Bilgewater Cartel, informs him that the cartel will have a new home in [[Azshara]], and offers for them to join the Horde. Gallywix then swears his loyalty to the Horde.
  +
  +
Unfortunately Gallywix seems to resume his poor treatment of the player almost immediately, as evidenced by his refusal to talk to the player or grant pay raises during the ride to Orgrimmar.

Gallywix as he appears in World of Warcraft.

Trade Prince Jastor Gallywix[1] is the much-maligned leader of the Bilgewater Cartel, one of the most powerful goblin trade guilds on Kezan. Despite betraying his own people in a petty act of vengeance, he retains his position as Trade Prince of the Bilgewater Cartel in its service to the Horde.

Biography

Jastor Gallywix's father, Luzik, was a tinker who lived and worked on Copper Street in Drudgetown on Kezan, and his mother left for a life of piracy. His father regularly tested his inventions - all of which had something to do with explosives (appropriately for goblins) - in the house, which had the potential for causing fatal injuries to both himself and his son. On his tenth birthday, Gallywix had had enough of his father's antics and thought about running away to become a pirate himself. That was before he witnessed a local street gang rough up his father for money, and steal a cookie his father had given him (from a bakery that had been destroyed in the various Trade Wars; as a result, the confection was highly rare). That inspired him to take control of his neighborhood and begin his rise to power on Kezan. First, he booby-trapped the payment to the gang with dynamite, blowing the entire gang sky-high. Then he took over, buying out the street's businesses, among them his father's tinkering business.[1]

Many years later, Gallywix had become president of what became known as the Copper Street Conglomerate, an advisor to the Tinkers' Union, a major figure in the Trade Coalition, and the second wealthiest goblin in the Bilgewater Cartel - second only to Trade Prince Maldy himself. With the aid of the moguls of the Bilgewater and from Tek'zik Riddlevox, Director of the Tinkers' Union, all of whom believed that Maldy had gone soft (he was known to dote over his daughter, Nessa, with whom Gallywix had fallen in love with on first sight), Gallywix initiated a hostile takeover of the Bilgewater Cartel. He bought the loyalty of Maldy's staff, and replaced his security with his own mercenaries; he even owned the land on which Maldy's manor (the site of his own villa many years later) was situated. Though Maldy hoped to re-buy his possessions with the money he gained from trading weapons to the Alliance, Gallywix eliminated that possibility by destroying Maldy's trade fleet. Now in total control, Gallywix exiled Maldy and his daughter from Kezan, and later arranged his (supposedly accidental) death.[1]

In the Present

Twenty years later, on the eve of the Shattering, Gallywix is on the verge of losing his position as Trade Prince and views the player as his rival for the office. When Deathwing causes Mount Kajaro to erupt, his position is greatly enhanced because he holds the only ship out of Kezan. Anyone who wishes to escape the island - including the player - must use his or her life savings to purchase a ticket, later becoming Gallywixā€™s slave. The ship is en route to Azshara when they are fired upon and sunk by an Alliance vessel in the crossfire of a naval battle with the Horde just off the coast of the Lost Isles.[2]

The Trade Prince turns out to have survived the Alliance attack and is one of the first goblins saved by the player on the island. He appears with the other goblin survivors immediately afterwards. Later, after the player rescues former Warchief Thrall, Gallywix arrives and swears vengeance upon the player and the other goblins of his own cartel, using Foreman Dampwick's rocket sling and escapes.

He later enslaves members of the Bilgewater Cartel and uses them as slaves in the Gallywix Labor Mine. At this point he is able to turn the player's friend (and female player's ex-boyfriend) Chip Endale to his side. After Chip's death, Gallywix begins going out with Candy Cane (the male player's ex-girlfriend).

The orc survivors of the naval battle eventually team up with the surviving goblins of the Bilgewater Cartel to confront the traitorous Gallywix in the conclusion of the goblin starting zone. The player and Thrall fight and defeat the Trade Prince, but Gallywix surrenders and promises to reform how he runs the cartel. Thrall allows Gallywix to remain as the Trade Prince of the Bilgewater Cartel, informs him that the cartel will have a new home in Azshara, and offers for them to join the Horde. Gallywix then swears his loyalty to the Horde.

Unfortunately Gallywix seems to resume his poor treatment of the player almost immediately, as evidenced by his refusal to talk to the player or grant pay raises during the ride to Orgrimmar.
