Gavin is a typical (rural man) warrior. Born on a sheep ranch in southern Rhudaur, he listened to tales of glory, and dreamed of heroes, and treasure as a child. Finally, he left home, and fell in with a party of adventurers he met in Thuin Boid. He is good at his job, and has survived many battles, amassing a good amount of wealth in the proccess. Nonetheless, he sometimes wonders if sheep ranching were so bad after all

Some time ago he lost his best friend, Corion, in battle. Subsequently Corion, now a vampire, was rediscovered, and freed from the clutches of an evil sorceres. Doria, the Dwarven Scout, has gotten the idea that Corion can be redeemed, but Gavin is not so sure. Though it hurts him greatly, he stands ready to dispatch his old friend if no cure can be found, or if Corion presents a threat to the rest of the group. Gavin knows he is the only one of Corions former friends with both the skill, and the stomach to do the job.
