Biography[]
Gaspar worked for Moriarty and acted as a disguise for her when she had to deal with people involved in her criminal empire. She used him for two reasons: to avoid meeting face-to-face with someone and to not let Moriarty's gender get in the way of business. She eventually used him to call Sherlock and to give him a case. ("Risk Management")
After Moriarty was caught, Gaspar kidnapped Moriarty's daughter and asked for a ransom both of money and of information. Moriarty escaped her prison and killed him and his accomplices. ("The Diabolical Kind")
