---Personal Information---
Place of Birth: Raven Rock, SolstheimProfession: Blacksmith
Relationships: None
Affiliations: None
Residence: A small house near the Waterfront
Backstory: Galas was born to a poor family in Raven Rock. His mother worked on a small farm just outside the Bulwark, while his father worked in the Ebony Mine. Galas, as well his father, were distant relatives of the former Duke of Vvardenfell district, Vedam Dren, though this meant little to nothing for the people of Raven Rock.
Galas learned how to fish at a young age, though also took an admiration to smithing. He spent much of his time watching the local blacksmith work, and after a few years the smith took Galas on as an apprentice. After the blacksmith retired, Galas earned a decent living as the town’s only smith. After several years at the job, a merchant ship bound for Solitude docked in Raven Rock for repairs. Galas, enjoying life as a smith but also feeling the need for change, requested that he go to Solitude aboard the ship. The ship’s captain accepted, and Galas left Raven Rock a few days later.
Upon arriving in Solitude, Galas found a job repairing weapons and armour for the local guard garrison. His free time was shared between fishing and walking around the wilderness outside the city, the greenery acting as a nice replacement to Solstheim’s ash. Hunting was something else that He had taken up in his spare time. He spent a few years in Solitude, returning to Raven Rock for a few weeks around his brithday each year. Life was good for the Dunmer, until one day when he received a letter from his mother; A cave-in occurred in the mine, and Galas’ father was among the dead.
Within a few days he had returned to Raven Rock to help aid his grieving mother. He spent a few weeks back in Raven Rock, then returned to Solitude to continue Smithing.
He continued his work for while, always sending some gold back to Raven Rock for his now aging mother. But she was not the only one feeling time catch up, as Galas too was feeling the burden of time. While there may have been other factors at play for his eventual need to leave Solitude, Galas insists even to his closest friends that the only reason is that the work load of Solitude, being the Capital of Skyrim and with a far greater garrison than that of Sky's Haven, was getting to be a bit much for him.
He first arrived in Sky's Haven around four years ago, and since then has been smithing weapons for the local guard garrison.
