Gape Newell

"You can call me Gape by the way."

- Gape Newell

Gape Newell is the homophobic, crazed and supposedly alternate version of Gabe Newell. Gape first appeared when he was interviewed at Valve HQ and was mistaken for Gabe Newell. Gape's origins and where he came from is almost a complete mystery. The only origins known about him were fabricated through the tales he's told about his past.

Appearance
Gape appears to be a crazed, wrinkled and unkempt version of Gabe Newell. With the untrained eye, he can be easily mistaken for the real Gabe.

Alternate Gaben Theory
Where Gape came from is a mystery, he could potentially be a person pretending to be Gaben. Most people believe that he is Gabe but from an alternate universe. Gape seemed to know how to navigate Valve's HQ and was very familiar with Valve's history, albeit slightly altered. Many of his major life choices and experiences according to him are very similar or even exactly the same to Gabe Newell's. However, Gape's personal experiences are entirely different. An example of this is that instead of just leaving Microsoft to go pursue his own company, Valve, instead he left also because Bill Gates was allegedly a homosexual

Disdain for Other Companies
Once Gape's Valve business was booming, he realized that he can make tons more money by becoming self sufficient and not having to rely on other companies. Soon he developed his own game systems such as the Steam Box or the Cleveland Steam Box, the Cleveland Steam Box Portable and his own operating systems such as Steam OS. Instead of saying it straight, Gape claimed that the other consoles and operating systems were worst and overrated. He even went as far as to say that Tux from Linux was a homosexual with little to no evidence.

Downfall
As Valve is a rivaling company to Apple, Gape is not fond of Apple's presence. Only to solely offend Apple, Gape protested in front of Apple stores in Thneedville, New York, Who-Ville and Washington. Not too many people cared but it was only when Gape leaked LeafyisHere's nudes and distributed them across the web. Leafy is a high ranked member of the Trendy Hipster Organization of Apple and a well known ally of Who-Ville. Gape was then tracked down and taken to solitary confinement. The location of where Gape currently is, is classified information; however, it is believed that the SCP Foundation could possibly be responsible for his disappearance.
