Garrahan Gallus

Garrahan Gallus is a Sevician statesman, politican, and commander of the rank of General. He is one of the few Sevician military commanders to be awarded the Grand Eagle with Cross for services for Sevicia. He was elected governor of the city of Karran in 690 and has served in the role ever since. He married his first and only wife, Lady Meria Tate of Meirum, youngest daughter of former Grand Chancellor Roguy Tate, in 673, with whom he has three children. The eldest, Lady Ossica Tate (b. 674), is the current Protector of the Southlands.
As a military commander, Gallus' greatest success came in the second and third Duscadorian-Sevician wars. In the second, he led the command of the Sevician vanguard at the Battle of the Breach, and personally led the counter-offensive that broke through the Duscadorian central lines. He also participated in the Battle of the Knife and the Battle of Poplar Forest. In the third war (707 - 708), he led Sevician forces at the Battle of the Crossroads, and later in the war assumed co-command and led Sevicia to victory in the Battle of Candar Valley. Though Sevicia suffered a tactical setback at the Rose Fields, Gallus' command was seen as strategically integral to Sevician victory in the war.
