Garwen is an independent-minded lion-like being from the southern jungles.
In his culture it is expected that young males will often wander widely before settling
down. Although it was not his intention when he set out Garwen eventually travelled as far
north as
Quitak, the Warlords city, where he was arrested while trying to
break up a
fight between Carillion
and Grat.
Garwen is clearly very self-reliant and knows his own capabilities. Although grateful to
Keva for his rescue and acknowledging her skill at strategy
he will question her decisions until he is happy with them in his own mind. As a result
the rest of the party look up to him and respect his views which generally contain a
lot of common sense. His stolid outlook leads to him being teased by
Ne'hu who alternately annoys and amuses him. He thinks
Ne'hu lacks the dignity that females of his race would have at her age (ignoring the fact that
they are actually of different races) and in particular is horrified at her antics with
the gnolls, Griff, Gruff and Groff.
Garwen is particularly fond of
Mae who helped heal him after an incident on the road south.
