Gordon is a tall man with broad shoulders and thin limbs. He has a double chin, and his head is slightly elongated with a scar running across his forehead. The skin on the left side of the scar is of a different color. His head is bald on top, but long gray hair grows on the sides, and he has sideburns.

Personality[]
Gordon is a kind-hearted individual, as he raised Uta despite her being responsible for the destruction of his kingdom, accepting that it was ultimately an accident.[2]
He enjoys music and teaching music (which was why he didn't throw away the song "Tot Musica" when he found it), something that he continued doing despite the destruction of his kingdom. After New Genesis failed, he is seen teaching a new generation of musicians.[1]
Abilities and Powers[]
As a former king, Gordon used to have authority over the citizens of Elegia.[2] He is very knowledgeable in music, as seen in him conducting orchestras in Elegia before the destruction. He also has the teaching skills to help Uta fully develop her singing abilities.
Relationships[]
Uta[]
Uta was raised by Gordon since the age of 9, while also teaching her to develop her singing abilities.[2] He continues to deeply care for Uta after he opposed her plans for New Genesis, going as far to sacrifice his own body to save Luffy and convince Uta to stop her plans.
Shanks[]
Shanks entrusted Gordon with Uta after he decided to take the blame for Elegia's destruction, indicating the two were on good terms.[1]
History[]
Past[]
12 years ago, Gordon was the king of Elegia until the kingdom was destroyed by Tot Musica.[2] Before that, he also taught music and conducted orchestras. The song used to summon Tot Musica somehow came to be under Gordon's possession and was not thrown away due to Gordon's love of music. At some point, he found out about Uta's plans for capturing her fans forever in the Uta World.
Wano Country Saga[]
One Piece Film: Red[]
Gordon first watched Uta's concert from afar as Uta had already begun her plans for New Genesis. He saw Luffy, Law, Bepo, and Bartolomeo fleeing from Uta's soldiers and brought them inside some ruins. He explained the situation to them, asking them to help him stop her. When Luffy later faced Uta, Gordon jumped in front of him and took the attack, getting pierced in the stomach in the process. He then tried to convince Uta to stop, but failed. After Shanks and Luffy destroy Tot Musica, Gordon confiscated the sheet music for Tot Musica's song. Soon after, he opened a new music school and started to teach a new generation of musicians.[1]
