Description: The dark-skinned man stands 5'4" and is wearing the road beaten gear of a warrior. His brown hair is thinning but still full. His hazel eyes are passionate and lively.

Personality: Prone to second guessing himself, he comes off as nervous. When triggered he is a bloodthirsty maniac, stopping at nothing and killing everything for almost an hour.

History: Born in a small village he learned the ways of the warrior from his mother. His parents died when he was young, and he was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Galinndan grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Galinndan.

Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Baelitae is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: She was raised happily, as a normal child born to her father and mother.
