At first glance, Remy LeBeau is your average street thug. Sporting a long trench coat and a bandana, he could be seen prowling the streets at night. However, this young man was not out for killing or money. Wasn't out to become famous or show up in newspapers. He was out to do the right thing, and that is exactly what he was going to do. Remy came from the south after he finished his teachings with the local Thieve and Assassin guilds. Tne guilds knew he was special and re-united them before he hit his teenage years. When he was sixteen he hit a bus and came up to New York.

For several years, he roamed the streets and worked for different mob bosses. He did the dirty work and was so good at cleaning up, he usually had a new assignment under his door within the week. This hardened Remy to an extreme amount. He never really cared for anyone beside himself and was only out to make a profit. Not until he found Magneto, he found purpose. Magneto was able to explain to Remy that he had an amazing gift and would be able to do fantastic things with his abilities. Remy dropped every job he had and was soon Magneto's right hand man.

Soon, Magneto wanted Remy to perform strange missions. Most included infiltrating nuclear and scientific facilities. Remy stole what he had to and reported back to Magneto. Then one night, overhearing some plans accidently, he heard that Magneto's next campaign might put every mutant at risk. Remy was so unsure of what to do, he decided to turn to Professor Xavier. The Professor helped Remy sort out his thoughts and put them together. While he was in Remy's mind, he supressed the lonley and violent urges he had, soon helping him to cope with his strange childhood. Soon Gambit joined the X-Men and will help in any way he could.

Remy LeBeau was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. He was kidnapped from the hospital where he was raised by the LeBeau Clan Thieves Guild, and given to the Antiquary as a tribute.

They referred to the child as "le diable blanco" ("the white devil") and believed he was prophesied to unite the warring Thieves and Assassins Guilds. Soon after, Remy was placed in the care of f*gan's Mob, a gang of street thieves who raised the child and taught him the ways of thievery. After living as an orphan on the streets, a 10 year-old Remy attempted to pick the pocket of Jean-Luc LeBeau, then patriarch of the Thieves Guild. Jean-Luc took the boy off the streets and adopted him into his own family.

Remy's bio-kinetic charging abilities manifested early in his teens, although he kept his powers secret from his family and friends, practicing his powers away from prying eyes. When he was 15, he accompanied his best friend Etienne Marceaux on his "Tilling", the ritual initiation test of the Thieves Guild. However, it went awry as they were assigned to steal from the powerful immortal mutant Candra, who quickly captured them. Candra recognized Remy from an encounter that had taken place in her past but in his future (due to a time travel mission to the 19th Century Remy would take as an adult) and sold them to the deformed, mutant gangster and child slave trader known as the Pig, who planned to sell them and others their age to HYDRA as boy soldiers. Remy used his powers to escape their holding pen, but the physically enhanced Pig quickly caught up to them. Remy discovered his signature attack when he picked up a playing card that the drowned Etienne had dropped, charged it and threw it in the Pig's face, taking out his eye. Finally escaping his cliff top headquarters by diving into the sea, Remy was ultimately rescued by the Guild; Etienne drowned.

In an attempt to reconcile the Thieves and Assassins Guilds, Remy married Bella Donna Boudreaux, granddaughter of the head Assassin, whom he had met at age 8. Unfortunately, he was challenged by her brother Julien to a duel after the wedding. In the duel, Gambit killed Julien, and he was exiled from the city, ending his relationship with Bella Donna.

After his exile from New Orleans, he wandered the world and became a master professional thief, making many contacts (and quite a few enemies). During this period, Gambit found he had an uncontrollable amount of energy flowing through him, to the point that he could not withstand it. Desperate, Gambit went to Mister Sinister for help. Sinister modified Gambit's power, making him significantly less powerful, but able to control the still considerably large amount of power in him.

However, Sinister wanted the favor returned, so Gambit carried out various missions for him. For the last of these operations, Gambit gathered together a group of mercenaries which Sinister named the Marauders. The group included the mutant Sabretooth as one of its members. Gambit was then ordered to lead the Marauders into the tunnels under New York City. He led Sabretooth, Blockbuster, Prism, and Riptide there, while unknown to Gambit, Scalphunter, Arclight, Harthingy, Malice, Scrambler, and Vertigo followed the Morlock Tommy into the tunnels. Their goal was to wipe out the Morlocks. Gambit was unable to prevent the Marauders from killing a considerable number of Morlocks, but he was able to save one, a child. Her name was Sarah, and she would grow up to be Marrow, the leader of the mutant terrorist group Gene Nation. Gambit long kept his involvement in the mission a secret from his fellow X-Men, much to their eventual displeasure.

As of now though, Remy LeBeau is living in New York and helping the X-Men as much as he can. He appreciates what Professor Xavier has done for him and will help against the fight of the uncontrollable.

The night air was quite cold, for it being only August. The rain fell in sheets on the streets of New York. Many people were hiding under porches, or running for cabs with newspaper on their heads, but the majority of people were just inside, trying to not get wet.

Remy LeBeau however, was walking down the sidewalk at his own pace, one that would never let on hurry or rush. One that was calm, and cool, and collected. He nodded and touched his forehead when someone looked at him, and would allow people to bump into him as he tried to avoid getting in peoples way. He was in no rush at all, never in a rush.

He soon found his destination. An older building that he had come to know over the years, one that acted as his other home. Remy strolled up to the door and knocked three times, and watched as a small wooden plank slid to the side and asked him who he was.

"LeBeau, let me in."

The man opened the door for him, and Remy slipped inside gently. "They are downstairs." Was all the old, portly gentleman said. Remy nodded a thank you as he headed toward the staircase, seeing the man pick up his newspaper and continue reading it. Remy passed some boxes and found the staircase, and headed down.

Bright lights filled the area, and a large stage was situated at the back of the area. Female dancers were dancing, while drunk men sat in front of the makeshift area and shouted obscenities at them. Remy was into more wholesome entertainment. He headed to a poker table and sat down at the end. The men at the table nodded to him, and he returned kindly. He looked at the female dealer, sporting a short skirt and a top that her mother wouldn't approve of.

Remy blinked and smiled.

"Deal me in, Petite..."
