BACKGROUND
During an escape attempt gone awry, Galfon’s parents were separated from the Bellflower Tiller contact that was supposed to guide them to Andoran. Lost in the woods and under the pursuit of their master’s men, they desperately offered their prayers to Erastil, asking for his protection. An elk appeared and led them to freedom, the trees shielding them from prying eyes, and the undergrowth hiding their tracks.

Whether it was truly divine providence or just plain luck that saved his parents, this story was one that Galfon grew up with as a child. As far as he was concerned, he owed both his freedom and his very existence to it, as well to the Stag God. This, combined with the freedom-loving ideology that he grew up with in Andoran, was all the inspiration Galfon needed to decide on his path. The halfling was still a young man when he first took up the bow and swore his paladin’s oath to Old Deadeye. He resolved to one day join the Eagle Knights, so that he could help defend Andoran’s borders, as well as the freedom he holds so dear.

Until that time comes however, Galfon has been content to patrol the borders of his own volition, practicing his skill with the bow and keeping his eyes open for escaped slaves, ever mindful of the ever-present Chelaxian threat. Saltmarsh is the first major prospect that he has laid his eyes on; if he could claim the stronghold there for Andoran, then their presence on the border would be strengthened. Little does he know of the true danger that awaits him there…

DESCRIPTION
Galfon is a ruggedly handsome halfling with a barrel chest and strapping arms, testaments to his skill with the bow. He has short, tousled blonde hair, and persistent stubble on his chin that resists any attempts to shave it.
