The High Priest of Sartan, a man who uses the conviction of word rather than the cold steel of his blade. Nevertheless, a true warrior. Only Sartan had other desires for Roberd's life. A noble who started his adventure in Sartania, a realm that made him strong and righteous. A true veteran of the Sartanian nobility, and already on a young age appointed as Duke of Niel. Later captured by Arcaea and of his dukedom deprived. Upon his return he struggled to get his honour back, but for nothing. Years passed and finally Roberd got the chance to become the Lord of Irneas, the region where the Galvez family resides and Roberd gladly accepted the offer, to be later reinstalled as Duke of Niel again, as well as the marshal of the Sartanian army for many years until Sartan guided him towards the path of the priest. And once again, Roberd lost his dukedom, as Arcachon called in the aid of Arcaea to finish the war Arcachon started. Upon the fall of Sartania, Roberd travelled west, to Papania to complete his study as priest and to convert new people to the path of the warrior. Roberd dedication towards the Church hasn't remained unnoticed and in Ossaet he was appointed as High Priest of the Church of Sartan by High Priest Azgath Cyrith. But Roberd teaching weren't welcome in all of Papania and so he was banished from the lands of Papania by a wicked Judge Gregor Eyolf Serpentis, a man deceived by the ideals of the evil Adgharinism. After the banishment Roberd decided to journey south to his Sartanian comrades in Cathay, but his stay was short as the Sartanian nobility decided to raise the flag of Soliferum together with a few loyal and great Cathayan nobles to continue the fight against Arcaea. And there Roberd still resides, teaching Soliferum's northern border about the ways of Sartan.

Upon his birth he and his mother were deported by his father to the South-East Island. Ares was afraid that Minerva would find out about his secret love with Julii and sent them to Tasalak. Randolf grew up in a times of total war. No one was spared from the terrors of the wars. He grew up without any wealth, and as a peasant he lived on a little farm with his mother Julii totally abandoned by the Galvez family, and thus never got to know his father nor anyone else of the Galvez Familiy and was given his mothers Family name. But upon Randolf's 17th birthday, he received hundreds of gold from Ares Galvez and was able to present himself as the noble he is! He bought a mansion in the city of Tasalak and presented himself as Sir Randolf Galvez for the first time of his life. He was accepted among the nobility of Tasalak and aided them in their war with Ikalak and Toren. And in Tasalak he joined the path of Heroism and fought for many years under the fine leadership of his Liege and Mentor, Lord Aeneas, a member of the Archirium family. A family which had close ties with the Galvez family anywhere. But Randolf had the evacuate the Island because it started to sink, and took the first available boot when he got back in Tasalak and sailed to Atamara where he joined Minis Ithil, but only for a short period of time as he continued his journey to the East Continent, to Fontan! Where he re-joined in the service of his Liege Lord Aeneas Archirium. Fontan was a large realm at the time, and planned to start a colony in Kazakh, a city of Old Rancagua. They succeeded and together with other nobles from Tasalak and Fontan who joined the operation they founded the realm, the Sultanate of Asena. As knight of Kazakh he joined the army of his Liege, the Iron Wolves of Asena and fougt bravely many times against Old Rancagua, Obsidian Islands, Sirion and one on point even against the armies of Perdan. The start of the realm was tough, but they managed to survive. Now, Duke Aeneas Archirium was struck by a decease and shipped to Atamara to receive treatment, but he did not survived. And as loyal knight, he contacted the Sultan, sir Korkut Kalkandelen and convinced the Sultan to make him the successor of Duke Aeneas Archirium. And as first act as Duke he re-founded the Iron Wolves of Asena. And later he was elected as Judge of the Sultanate of Asena. And in a short period of time he became a very important noble within the community of the Sultanate. And when Sultan Korkut Kalkandelen got missing, he was even elected as the next Sultan. As well as re-elected in the office as Grand Vezir. But as promised he would hold the position of Sultan only temporarily till Sir Korkut would return. But Defterdar Katan Anthas, started to divert gold from the government into his own pockets now Sir Korkut was gone. Randolf wasn't satisfied by Defterdar Katan, but didn't expected less. The Anthas Family had it's issues with Randolf's former Liege, and Randolf was always there to back Duke Aeneas up. And Defterdar Katan considered himself to be ignored by my judgement as Grand Vezir of the Sultanate before Randolf was elected as Sultan, which he won only with a few more votes than Defterdar Katan. Internal affairs kept the Sultanate busy for a long time, and for shore it didn't improved the situation of the war they were fighting. Randolf demanded Defterdar Katan to step down, but he refused to do so, and the protests started but didn't held on long enough. In the High councils it was decided to assassinate the Defterdar, but the attempt failed. Randolf took full responsibility for the attempt, and it was accepted within the Sultanate as he expected. A vendetta started as Picco Anthas tried to assassinate Randolf, but even as Sultan nor Grand Vezir he had no ways and means to banish either the captured infiltrator of the Anthas Family, as protected by his Liege, Defterdar Katan, nor the Defterdar himself as he was a member of the government of the Sultanate. Sir Korkut who had returned required time to revalidate, but when he had the strength to lead the Sultanate again, Randolf decided to step down as promised. His inexperience of the Continent, few connections with any of the foreign rulers and the internal affairs overshadowed his reign and made him unable to rule the Sultanate as he hoped to do. But nevertheless, Sir Korkut restored the peace within the Sultanate and dragged the Sulanate out of their struggle to survive and started the conquest of the remaining lands of Old Rancagua. And Randolf decided to keep a low profile for a while and to continue as a simple knight for some time, to just fight and battle like he had done in Tasalak. But not for too long. Randolf couldn't resist it to take command of the Iron Wolves of Asena, his own army and derby become part of the ruling nobility of the Sultanate again. And with Old Rancague mostly destroyed and with Randolf actively marshalling his own army it didn't took to long before he was appointed as Count of Pedrera. But faith strikes the good Sultan once again, and he is missing once more. Sir Hector Sarrin is elected Sultan. In the beginning, Hector and Randolf have had their difficulties. Mostly because there was only one Sultan in the eyes of Randolf, and that was Sultan Korkut. And he held on to it that Sir Korkut would return. And his hatred for the current Defterdar might have caused him to offend a government member more than once as well. And in the end, he got fined with 250 gold for disrespecting the Sultan and the Defterdar. With the Galvez family wealth this was easily paid, as at the time Pedrera didn't provided Randolf with a sufficient income to pay such prices. But over time, after Sir Korkut had found his way home again and laid down his ruler-ship since he allowed Sir Hector to remain Sultan, they got along better. Maybe the disappearance of the Anthas Family had something to do with that as well.
And already for some time, their war with Old Rancagua was over. But they had more enemies to beat, and Sirion has superior forces. The war with Sirion went back and forth with no real gaining of anything. Only more peasants and fine soldiers got slaughtered in the process. Eventually, Randolf got captured by the elves, and he tried but could not escape from their dungeons. He lost the Lordship over Pedrera and his knight and steward, sir Florian Rosinian was appointed to preserve the region from falling apart. Upon Randolf's return from the deep dungeons, he recognized the fine work that was conducted in Pedrera and allowed the young knight to permanently become Lord of Pedrera. Randolf knew that other opportunities would present themselves to him to become Lord once more, and they did. After the rat that held the Lordship of Salta was banished from the Sultanate Randolf was appointed to lead the peasantry of Salta. Times were good, both for Randolf as the Sultanate. But good times never last as long as you hoped for. A plague infected many great nobles including the Sultan, Hector Sarrin and the Duke of Oroya, Apollyon Orgon. The Sultanate was in a state of emergency and new Sultan required to be chosen. Randolf announces his running, but was no match against the former Sultan, Korkut or the Duchess of Kazakh, Lady Catharina. Lady Catharina won the elections with slightly more votes than sir Korkut and was announced Sultana of the Sultanate of Asena. Many things changed rapidly; Korkut Kalkendelen was appointed as the new Duke of Kazakh and Randolf Galvez was appointed as the new Duke of Oroya. An appointment that tasted bittersweet, as he'd rather be promoted as Duke of Kazakh, a city that meant much more to Randolf than any other city. Nevertheless he was honoured with his promotion to Duke once more. Shortly afterwards Duke and Pasha Korkut announced to retain from his office as Pasha due to some family business. And whom less than Randolf Galvez himself was appointed to succeed Pasha Korkut. And with the promotion to the military Chief-in-Command of the Sultanate Randolf decided to retain from his marshal position of the Iron Wolves of Asena. And as sponsor of the army he then appointed Grand Vezir and Marquis of Pucallpa, David Ironheart to take command of his army, together with the new Vice-Marshal, Baron Florian Rosinian. And as newly appointed Pasha, Randolf strives to put an end to the threat at their Eastern border, bringing death to all the elves!
