Plot
Greed Island arc
Gashta and Zetsk, each one of the 7 players whom passed the Ren test
Gashta alongside his brother Zetsk, take Tsezguerra's Ren test in order to play Greed Island[3] and they both pass.[2] Right after entering the game from the Greed Island Entrance he regroups with his brother and thanks him for waiting. Gashta perseveres they're being watched and his brother Zetsk confirms it claiming there's a large number of people watching them. Through Gashta's deduction however, they're no threat and should be ignored. The brothers then head off together into the game.[4]
The Bellam brothers appearing before Gon and co.
The Bomb Devils mention the Bellam brothers as players that they should keep an eye on.[5] Goreinu also mentions them as a strong and famous duo, who never work with others.[1] During Eta's announcement about the trivia game to win the "Ruler's Blessing", the brothers attentively listen.[6] Gon wins the trivia game and the brothers confront Gon and group. Gashta comments how Gon and group actually managed to get all of the cards in the game, while his brother Zetsk snickers. Zetsk then tells a man that apparently was associated with the brothers that his job is done and can go beat it and then challenges the group to a winner take all match and it doesn't matter if it's 2 versus 4. Gashta then tells the group it's a match they can't refuse, the brothers however are handily defeated, by the boys.[7]
13th Hunter Chairman Election arc
After Chairman Netero's death, Gashta is seen with his brother taking part in the First Election for the 13th Hunter Chairman.[8]
Abilities & Powers
Gashta is capable enough to have passed the notoriously difficult Hunter Exam.[1] He is an above-average Greed Island player, praised as a capable individual by Goreinu[1] and considered a troublesome opponent by Genthru despite only recently starting the game.[5] His brother and he were feared by multiple players, although not as much as the Bomb Devils.[7] Gashta seems to be the leader of the duo he forms with his brother.[4] He is highly perceptive, having succeeded in sensing the presence of onlookers as soon as he joined the game, and making inferences about their species and skill level based on it.[4] Nonetheless, Zetsk and he were effortlessly defeated by Gon, Killua, Goreinu, and Biscuit.[7]
Nen
Due to being able to access Greed Island, Gashta is confirmed to be able to utilize Nen,[9] and is presumably quite skilled at it, since he was approved by Tsezguerra.[1]
