Gerard du Piedmont

From a small town of no repute, Gerard, dreamed of becoming a knight, but had few prospects. The most exciting thing to happen in his town was the appearance of an abitious travelling bard who sang songs of great events from far and wide. Gerard was entranced by her music and became fast friends with the charismatic character. Upon helping her out of a sticky situation in the town they both decided to depart together, with Gerard as her bodyguard, deciding that together they had a better chance of achieving their dreams. He is a man of few words but is fiercly loyal.
