Sir Paltos
Sir Remalius Kvantos Paltos (a.k.a. Sir Paltos)
*Quote by local merchant shortly after his appointment as guild master*
Sir Paltos was long considered the Greatest Guild Master of all time. People of Ventura knew him as a great teacher, matchmaker, recruiter, and warrior. He was never too noble to help out even the newest beginners just arriving in Ventura to become adventurers and he was often seen convincing youngsters to join the Adventurer Profession. His specialty was his ability to spot the strengths and weaknesses in an adventurer, and understand the interplays these would have with the skills of other adventurers. Parties formed under his guidance were often very successful, even if their combinations were unusual.

Physical quirks
Sir Paltos has a solid posture and a confident walk. His body occationally moves faster than his thoughts, which makes him seem clumsy as his muscle makes his movements very forceful. This often results in broken ceramics and accidents when moving in a crowd.
Specialized Equipment
The first armor of Sir Paltos was a simple and cheap leather armor, though he strongly preferred heavy armor. During his time as Guild Master, he would be seen wearing a shiny enchanted steel armor whenever he left the Guild. This made him appear abnormally large in crowds.
Sir Paltos always prefered long weapons, so even though he began with a normal sword, his future self was seen using either spears or greatswords.
A pendant with a cat tooth hangs around Sir Paltos' neck, though it is rarely visible over his armor. When not wearing gear however, it is out for full display. After his death, the pendant became extremely valuable, but the where about of the real one was soon lost. The pendant was said to bless an adventurer with great talent and luck in attracting party members.
Sir Paltos Adventurer's Badge was obtained from the Adventurer's Guild with a general warrior class. He is one of the few adventurers to reach the chrystalline level of the badge, which he achieved during his time as Guild Master.

Childhood
Sir Paltos (born Rumelius) was born and raised at a small farm on Ventura on the border of Hoovesh. The family was poor, but had what they needed. He soon got 2 younger siblings and the family thrived. When Rumelius was at the age of 10 and his siblings 4 and 6, the farm was attacked by a stray leopard. His mother was killed by the animal, as passing adventurers focused on protection of the children. Because of this event, young Rumelius insisted to attend the Adventurer's Academy, so that he might become surpass the adventurers who failed to save his mother and work to prevent other families suffering in the same manner as his own.Basic Training at the Adventurer's Academy
Rumelius was enrolled at the Adventurer's at the age of 12. With his mother gone, his help was still needed at the farm, so every morning, he would leave for the academy, attend school, then return to work the farm till evening, then do homework till late at night, sleep and repeat the next day. This made school difficult for him, and he did not have much of a social life at school. He was talented though, so he managed to pass and graduate. At the age of 15, he obtained his Adventurer's Badge at the graduation ceremony.Questing in Ventura
After graduation, Rumelius was still needed at the farm for a few years, so he stuck around Ventura doing quests for the local farmers and shopkeepers in his free time. His skills didn't progress much though, as the available quests within Ventura quickly became too easy for him.Advanced Training at Adventurers Academy
At the age of 17, Rumelius' younger siblings had reached the ages of 11 and 13 and could take enough load off of Rumelius on the farm for him to return to school and improve his skills as an adventurer. The extra classes lead to the upgrade of his Adventurer's Badge to one of Magnite. Having less work at the farm meant that Rumelius had more time to be part of the social life at the Adventurer's Academy. The classmates he had during this time become close friends with home he often joined in a party later in life. *Heading of on a journey with a party of classmates*Educational Journey
Having graduated advanced training at the academy with honorsat age 19, and earned a magnite Adventurer's Badge in the proces, Rumelius realized he couldn't grow enough in Ventura alone and left on a journey to train and improve. For 13 years he travelled all corners of Ropla doing quests and regularly sending money back to his family.Guild Master
Upon returning to Ventura at the age of 32, Rumelius returned to a city in turmoil. The old Guild Master had been dismissed in dishonor, and new one had yet to be chosen. No candidates had even been mentioned. The situation remained like this with Rumelius helping out where possible for 2 years, after which a specific event led to his appointment as Guild Master of the Adventurer's Guild and thereby the official leader of Ventura. This granted him nobility and wealth, and he became known as Sir Paltos. During his leadership, several world events occured. His most important role was the one he played at the age of 39, where he and a few parties under his leadership defeated the great leviathan of The Leviathan Crisis.Death
After almost 50 years of leadership, a coup was planned by some of the grandchildren of the previous Guild Master. The first step of this plan included the removal of the current guild master. On a late night during the Sunset of Prayer during the Festival of Passing, Sir Paltos became gravely ill very suddenly after dinner and was dead by morning. The coup, later known as The Darkest Midnight ultimately failed. *I'll in bed after a poisoned meal*Gender Identity
