− | : | + | : Galvan was born in his parent's old carriage on The Azim Steppe, his father, Oktai - being skilled in medicine and healing, helped his mother, Bolormaa through the arduous delivery.

Galvan's fighting style can be described as brutal and relentless. He prefers to use his strength in combat and withstand whatever his opponent throws at him (remembering his mother's mantra - Knock down 7 times, get up 8). When fighting he wants to give it his all and keep up the pressure on his opponents. His weakness is his lack of speed which makes dodging AOEs as a tank and sometimes when he switches jobs he forgets that he isn't as 'defensive' as he was led to numerous accidents. As a Black Mage he's often a sitting duck when using his potent magics so he needs to be more strategic in battle. Reaper allows him greater momentum that he didn't have as a Dark Knight or Black Mage and is still inexperienced at using it despite showing promising talent in the area. WeaponsGalvan utilises Great Swords when tanking as a Dark Knight (including his prized Blade's Justice), Rods as a Black Mage and Scythes as a Reaper. MagicHe is skilled and has an affinity with Black Magic and has had this fascination since childhood when he first stumbled upon his great grandmother's tomes (she was a Black Mage from the Kha Tribe before being exiled). His father (who does hold prejudices against the dark arts as he sees them as corrupting influences) saw him read the tomes and saw him conjure up a small fireball, harshly reprimanded the boy for his recklessness and not understanding the full dangers of using powerful magics. This caused a rift between father and son that didn't fully heal until Galvan's adulthood when he managed to convince his father that dark magic can be as beneficial as white magic. CraftingGalvan learned to be skilled in crafting by his tribe as they wanted all their children to be self-sufficient once they're adults. He likes woodworking and often employs his skills to help fix up a bar after a drunken brawl (after he nursed off a hangover) and in one instance a Dwarven home after he foolishly tried to enter through the door only to get his head stuck. Birth and childhood (0-10)
Oktai was a skilled Conjuror and Alchemist who hailed from the Kha tribe, he ran his own clinic from his carriage where he helped treat strangers and those needing medicine while in the area. No plight was too small for Oktai to ignore and felt everyone deserved to be healthy to experience life to the fullest. Although he never considered those jobs, Galvan was still proud of his father and the compassion he showed to strangers who had little to nothing to give. But would usually leave the carriage with smiles on their faces and hope in their eyes. This was a big influence on Galvan throughout his life. Bolormaa was a skilled Warrior, she served as both a protector and combat instructor for the children and adolescents in her tribe.

Her grandmother was a former slave who successfully completed the Bardam Mettle and earned her Yol. When she returned she inspired her other slaves to rise up and take back their freedom leading to the creation of the Thrull Tribe. Bolormaa's never seen without her axe and her pet war-bear, Boscoe. Both Bolormaa and Oktai met as young adults and Bolormaa was one of the patients in the medical section of his tribe after a nasty fight with bandits that lead to her getting a severe injury to her face. Oktai was able to heal the damage and save her eyesight, however she maintains the jagged scar on her face. The scar on her face is her favourite as it showed how she met the love of her life.

Teen Years
Another such incident happened when he was 15 and he and his sister were playing in the snow in the Northern region of the Coereaths (their father was busy healing people suffering from cold-related maladies while their mother was defending the carriage from bandits) they ran afoul of a few bored Knights who decided to harass the two children, they jeered at Galvan calling him a 'demon boy' which lead to him retaliating with a snowball.
