Legatus of the IVth Imperial Legion, Noah van Gabranth assumed his position ere he had reached twenty summers when his father succumbed to a deadly illness. Since then, Noah has effectively and efficiently kept Dalmasca and Bozja under the imperial yoke, quelling rebellions and revolts wherever they arose. In secret, he conspired to build a new nation on the ashes of Dalmasca, and the assassination of Emperor Varis may well have afforded him the opportunity. Gabranth's plans would go awry, however, in light of his defeat in Bozja. The Beast King Lyon—taking extreme umbrage at being held responsible for the IVth Legion's loss—plotted mutiny against the legatus. Gabranth would meet his end at the hands of this subordinate, and the IVth Legion would quickly dissolve thereafter, guaranteeing the freedom of Dalmasca. He was forty-eight years of age at the time of his death.

Noah van Gabranth serves as the Legatus of the IVth Legion, and is the underlying antagonist of the Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr questline, although he never directly confronts the player. As Legatus of the IVth Legion, Gabranth rules the entirety of Bozja and Dalmasca. Under his command, the IVth Legion has become the only legion to have more foreigners than pureblood Garleans. Noah took command of the IVth Legion 28 years ago, after his father Basch van Gabranth succumbed to a deadly, chronic illness which Noah suffers from as well. Gabranth has used his influence as a Legatus to attempt to find a cure for his illness.
One of Noah's main goals is to create a new, free nation based on rewarding personal excellence over one's race or affiliation. With the assassination of Varis yae Galvus at the hand of Zenos yae Galvus, this gave Noah the opportunity to put his plan in motion.
