Lord Eldwin Nightowl is a founding member of Gallavally, House Grimlove, House Silver Lion, and the No Name Yet Players.

Persona

Ealdwyn was born in 1562 in Englaund before spellings were standardized. He enjoys the writings of Wilyam Shaekspaer, whom he considers talented with a pen and the ladies but not so much on the stage. His proudest moment in Eanglund was being smiled at by Qweene Elysabethe. A companion insists that Her Majesty was actually experiencing a moment of indigestion, but he refuses to believe such a thing is possible with the Quean.

Finding himself worthless at his father's trade of ironmongery (and also in conflict with the family of Drake), Eldwin moved through a variety of less than fully reputable trades, performing various tasks to keep flesh and bone together. He was a cook's helper, traveling bard, thesbian in a traveling troupe, and in a nod to his father even assisted a dealer of swordsmithery. He made friends with a group of the Romany who are also known as Egypcians, and learned to play a drum for their dances.

One of his most frightening moments was when he felt the cold iron blade of King Guy of Castle Kirk upon his neck. He is still most thankful that his life was spared, assuming it was for some great purpose he has yet to discover.

Offices & Positions

  • Chronicler for the Gallavally Traveler, Historian, Deputy Senseschal (late 1980s to early 1990s)
  • Contributing Scribe for the Dreiburgen News ("Ask Eldwin," "Eldwin's Odd Facts")

He was happy to be an organizer of the 25th Anniversary's Ende of the Knowne World Gypsy Camp when it was discovered on the first night of the 10-day event that there was no place for all-night revelry. The camp was added to the event's official map, placed outside of any kingdom in an area where it said "Here There Be Dragons."
