Basic Information Full Name: Galinthios Diakos Nickname: Galin/Galen Age: 47 Gender: Male Race: Aetosian Ailor Preferred Weapon: Pearl Rose Mace, Flail, Hooked Chain Spoiler: Mace Aesthetic Description Core Concept Galinthios is a staunch believer in Evintarian Unionism, having been raised in the faith during both childhood and his Reliquary training years. He follows its commandments to the best of his ability, perhaps to the point of coming off as stiff or stale. Galinthios is a Parthas Reliquary knight from Hellas who finds himself past his prime, wanting to serve and make what he views as a positive difference in the world, for as long as he physically can.

Life Story Galinthios Diakos was born on February 4th, 267 A.C., to a family of artisans living in the Hellatian province of Rakkai. Galin would see his life change forever at thirteen years old when his father sent him to the Kitrini Akropolis in Etosil, convincing the Parthas Reliquary knights there to take in Galin as a Page. Galin spent the next few years of his life learning both academic and practical skills, along with the discipline needed for a knighthood. He'd graduate at the age of twenty from his training, receiving his Reliquary ring and promoted to a Faitharm. The next few decades saw him serve in the Chrysant, Elven, and Songaskian Wars either on the front lines or protecting clergy who were operating with Regalian forces. He also continued his duties at home in Hellas during peacetime, hunting blasphemers who insulted or threatened Unionist priests. After he got his affairs in order and set an arrangement to send money back to his family, Galin went off to Regalia to join his brothers in arms there and fulfill his Everwatcher-given purpose.
Did more extensive proficiency reorganization and added Command regiment to Special Traits. All edits marked in Green.
@Caelamus I've decided to have Mustafa been trained as a Bloodcast, resulting in a large rewrite of his app. All changes in Life Story and Skill Information marked in Green.
@Caelamus I've decided to completely rename Mustafa Bey to Ibrahim Batunoglu, made edits to Life Story and name to accommodate. Changes marked in Green.
@Caelamus Added his Nautilaan Ailor lineage Completely reworked Proficiency Points Made changes to Special Traits and Life Story All changes are marked in Green.
@Caelamus I'm so sorry to do this to you, but after some recent discussion with others, I've decided that Admiral doesn't really make sense for a knight character and changed his Tactic proficiency to Marine instead while making changes to Maritime Knowledge. Changes marked in Green.
@Caelamus I've decided to rewrite Ibrahim once more: Reworked Proficiencies completely Made changes to Physical Stat Made changes to Special Traits to adjust for Profs (changing Yacht to Sloop), also added the immunity to most mundane diseases inherent in Mevoriim and Guneyliler Ailor. All changes are marked in Green.
@Caelamus Overhaul due to Proficiency rework, made rewrites to just about everything under Skill Information and added a brief piece in Life Story as an explanation for his Ritualism. Changes made in Green.
@Caelamus Changed Ibrahim's points due to Nautilaan Ailor race boost changed from Sailing Arts to Swords, differentiated Lineage from Race Boost since Nautilaan lineage still get a +5 to Sailing. Changes made in Green.
@Caelamus Decided to write out Ibrahim's ritualism, as I didn't really use the abilities as often as I'd imagined and I prefer playing him purely mundane. Relocated profs elsewhere and added a brief bullet point in Life Story explaining his Finecraft Sciences. Changes made in Green.
@Caelamus Changed some Life Story details, and included a Personal Bloodcast Code underneath the Personality section. All edits made in Green.
@festiveCorvid Updated according to the Metallurgy rework, changes in Proficiency spread and Abilities made in Green.
Racial Abilities updated to the new Ailor Racial Abilities, with Proficiencies reworked again as a result.
@festiveCorvid With the Guneyliler culture now gone, I decided to rewrite the character and ended up doing almost a complete overhaul of what used to be Ibrahim: Culture changed from Guneyliler to Etosian, with Ibrahim Batunoglu's name being changed to Galinthios Diakos. Made him a Villiers-Eclaire Knight instead of a Bloodcast Knight, so as to better reflect cultural tendencies but emphasize his charity, military inclination and religiosity. Proficiencies are drastically reworked. Life Story is completely different now due to his new culture and knight order. All changes are made in Green.
@festiveCorvid I have updated Galin's app to be in line with the recent Ailor racial ability update, but also did other changes: Added 4 unused points to Shielding Combat, raising the total to 12. Gave the Seizing Innovation boost to Construction Arts. Boosted Physical Stat due to both Shielding increase and Seizing Destiny phys stat boost. Chose Varsivas as the People of Many Tongues language, which in turn added Vristos as an Unlocked Language due to Galin now having Hellas, Etosian, and Varsivas. All changes made in Green.
Claimed for review! App looks great for the most part, there's just one teensy edit that needs to be made before I can approve: You can only apply the racial boost to investments of 10 and above. You'll need to invest another 5 points to have your racial boost on Husbandry Arts. Please shuffle around to accommodate. Go ahead and tag me once you've made that change and I'll come in for a second review to get this approved ASAP ^^
