Operating under the alias of a traveling dancer, Gore—also identified by the full name Goa Minagawa in original language materials—infiltrates the protagonist's adventuring party. This cover serves her true profession as a bounty hunter and assassin, with her core motivation being the collection of the substantial bounty on the protagonist's life. Personality-wise, she displays overt sadism and dominatrix traits, repeatedly employing drugs, magic, or psychological manipulation in her assassination attempts. These methods manifest as persistent efforts to subdue the protagonist through seduction or chemical subjugation.

Her development emerges through specific incidents: During an early inn encounter, she attempts to overpower the protagonist using drugs and magical influence, but fails due to his unconscious yet potent heroic resistance—revealing him as an unexpected challenge. Later, she adopts a subtler strategy by feigning romantic interest and orchestrating date-like scenarios to lower his vigilance. After interrupting a robbery, she administers memory-altering substances to erase witnesses' recollections, demonstrating her preference for clean operations and aversion to leaving evidence; this specifically prevented exposing her capabilities to the protagonist. When direct methods like planting an explosive device catastrophically fail due to miscalculating the target's resilience, she temporarily cooperates with fellow assassins to manage collateral damage.
