Galantos Family/Lexington

Banner of the Redcloaks

DEAD: Killed by a sea monster while traveling

Lexington Galantos is the second son of Tarkas III, and a Knight of Eston. By far the most jovial of his brothers, he is friendly, loyal, and mostly oblivious to the tribulations and horrors of life.

For several years, he was allegedly abroad to study the Saints, but in fact, he was carousing and adventuring, eventually assisting Giblot in their righteous struggle against Outer Tilog.

After getting a taste for warfare, he decided to return home to Eston, and unfurl the antiquated family arms (two white swords crossed on a burgundy and ash field), assemble soldiers (the Redcloaks, named after the Galantos cavalry of old) and serve as a Knight of Meneriel. At age twenty he married Bronwyn of Hartwood, a feisty lass who is prone to fits of rage. Soon thereafter (despite shaky marital relations), she produced an heir; Tarkas V. Since the move to Riombara, she has birthed another son, Montague II.

He currently is a knight of The Lion Rose in Riombara, drawn there by tales of a crusade against the undead. A Hero of the Realm, he enjoys propping his feet up on tavern tables, and telling stories of his many adventures and misdeeds. He is currently working on a novel chronicling his misdeeds, called "Lexington's Adventures Abroad". His best friend is a Wizened Old Man (said to be a magus of some kind, who has a beard so long that he needs wear no pants.)

Lexington also serves Riombara as Grand Justiciar, a position that he was surprisingly elected to after being harangued most ferociously by his wyfe. He ran on a platform of "please keep my wyfe from beating me", and won by a small margin of pity votes, for which he is most grateful. Luckily, he is a fair man, and just, and wishes only goodwill among nobles.

Lexington is tall and heavy-set (some would say fat), with dark red hair and a thick beard. He is red-faced, and often issues forth with loud, bellowing laughter.
