History

Always soft-spoken and polite, Garrem has been noticeably hesitant to share many details about himself or his past. Only the basic facts are known at this time.

Garrem lived for years on the island of Meshor as part of a small Human settlement there. When he reached adulthood, the Elder of the village granted him and others the choice to leave the island and travel the world. Garrem accepted and traded for passage aboard one of the ships belonging to a trade company who frequently came to the island to collect pelts.

First coming to Kermoria by way of Ilithi, Garrem spent some time in the city of Shard before moving North to see more of what the five provinces had to offer. It was in the city of Crossing where he learned more of the Paladins' Guild and eventually joined their membership under Guildleader Verika. His distaste for the social structure of Zoluren and the crassness of its people drove him to move to Therengia and further his studies under Guildleader Cleworth instead.

As he spent more time in Therengia, he grew to appreciate the environment and the people who had so warmly welcomed him. Eventually, he gained citizenship in the area and pledged himself into the Baron's service. Exactly what the Baron will ask of him or what his duties will be in the future is undetermined, however, he continues his studies under Guildleader Cleworth and trains to further advance his position within the guild.

Accolades

• 421 A.V.

Sir Anjinson Shilanthor, a retired Paladin, gave Garrem a formal recognition of service and dedication to the teachings of the guild. This recognition was accompanied by a gift from the philanthropist in the form of a masterfully-forged kertig lance.

Home

Since pledging to the Baron, Garrem has found himself a home at Therenborough's Lower East Way. Ensuring that he will always be near should his liege have need of him.

Inside

[Garrem's Home]
Walls of white-washed plaster and an oil-coated pine floor covered by a tasseled cotton rug enclose this small room. In one corner lies a simple stick cot, and near the cot sits a sturdy oak table. A square cast iron stove burns along the far wall with a brilliant gold banner honoring Zozindu Theren hanging above it. The room holds a faint scent of metal polish. You also see an oak door painted with the fabled Corik's Tomb on Meshor and an elegantly-carved ash closet with a silk flag azure in pale a rose argent and a tower sable on it.
Obvious exits: none.

Mount

Finding himself to be slightly lacking as a Therengian Paladin, being that he had no horse of his own to accompany him, Garrem traveled to many stables before deciding on his mount. Eventually finding a suitable match for him at the Zoluren Royal Mews, Garrem is now the proud owner of a gelding he has named "Jeoldar" or "Winter" in the common tongue.

Appearence

The horse is eighteen hands high with a medium dark grey coat and white highlights. It has a light grey mane and tail. It is a gelding and has a wide white stripe running down the center of the face.
