The fact that it's opposite to what Bedhivere would normally ever do is kind of the POINT. I wasn't attempting to imitate Bedhivere in any realistic manner, I was showing Gabriel having fun with his image.

However, I must admit I did not realize that the people in such a location would not work for Bedhivere.

As such, they now do.

In fact, they're completely convinced they've worked for Bedhivere the whole time, and will cease realizing this the moment Gabe leaves the estate.

Why?

Because Gabriel wants them to.

I suppose. But what purpose does this make then? You simply then convince the people, rather than anyone else.

The only person Gabe is truly fooling is himself in thinking that this would amount to anything given that if it is merely a status of the mind and not actual belief, then he can be anyone he wants. He can be the Queen of England if he convinces everyone he is. He can be Mithias if he does the same, or Magnus, or Kami, or Martin. But to what purpose does this have? 

I suppose nothing is stopping Gabe from making a video and pretending to be Kami/some Solider Superior and sending out a broadcast to completely defame the Solider/Purge. Or just control an entire city and make it a puppet for himself. Since of course, that's his character and that's what he does. To which there's really nothing important enough to illicit a response from anyone where Gabe is at since he can freely control them at will. And since the free-will of the NPC's are effectively taken there's nothing worth mentioning on my end given that control over the estate now rests with Gabriel.
