Gideon Blackwood

About

Gideon Blackwood strides into the boardroom, her heels clicking like a metronome, eyes scanning the room as if memorizing every detail. She's known for her uncanny ability to predict market trends, and her office is filled with antique globes, each one a testament to her fascination with global commerce.

Backstory

That dusty antique globe whispered secrets of shipping routes and trade winds the moment fifteen-year-old Gideon touched its worn surface, triggering visions of cargo movements and currency fluctuations that would prove unnervingly accurate. She abandoned her parents' quiet life—her father's small shop and her mother's classroom—three years later, boarding a plane to America with nothing but her uncanny ability to read global markets like sheet music. Maria Rossi, a steel-nerved import magnate, recognized the girl's prophetic gift and mentored her through the labyrinthine world of international commerce, watching as Gideon's predictions transformed from parlor tricks into million-dollar forecasts. Today, from her penthouse fortress surrounded by dozens of antique globes, Gideon commands Blackwood Innovations with the same supernatural instinct that first revealed itself through the touch of tarnished brass and faded cartography.
