1) Character Name: Grand Maester Gallan
2) Character Age: 82
3) Character Nationality (Stormlands, The Reach, etc): Unknown, has been a maester since before most lords were born.
4) Character Byname: Grandpa Gallan
5) Character Skillpoint Distribution (out of 400): Higher than yours, you non-wise and ancient grand maester you.
8) Character Personal History: The Grand Maester speaks little of his history prior to becoming an acolyte, but he’s known to joke he was a wild one before he was chained. After earning his links, he became a researcher specializing in history and current events. He spent 30 years studying each and every major Westerosi house, dissecting each scandal and tearing apart each tale of so-called valor. When the current grand maester was forced to select a new master of the copper mask, Gallan received the ring and rod before the last chief historian had even been buried.
Once in the Conclave, he took a very keen interest in administrative details, virtually sitting in on many an acolyte’s personal training. In the last 30 years, not a single maester has earned their chain without spending some private time in Gallan’s office. When Gallan finally arrived in the Red Keep, the majority of the Conclave had already spent at least a year under gallan’s tutelage. It had been no spectacular feat to be elected Grand Maester…
9) Character Physical Description: Long bearded and withered with frail fingers, Gallan is the classic image of a wise mentor. Lately his eyes has become milkier, perhaps one day leading to blindness, but the Grand Maester remains in fit shape to advise the king and his Small Council.
10) Character Reputation: There are few who can imagine a different person wearing those clinking chains beside the Iron Throne. Wise as his years and considered the greatest living expert on human nature, there are few topics Grand Maester Gallan cannot somehow advise on.
