Amadeus Galati

Amadeus is a Half Snow Elf and half human and a lead protagonist within the story. He is the second son of the famed warrior Andris Galati and younger brother of the General of Cilbaen, Galiron Galati. Born amidst a battle during the second migration of the Snow Elves, he was destined to live a warriors life and inherited his fathers brute strength making him a formidable opponent for any man or monster. A long time friend and later blood brother of Darius Tassinari. He is never too far from his friends side companying him on his journey to the Northern Reaches and beyond and would later be his right hand man when Darius took his place as Maester. Though he rejects the notion, he is the grandson of the King of Athol, Matuesz.
Early Years
Like his father and brother before him. Garcia was a slow learner when it came to alchemy and only grasped how to control the element of fire at the age of 13. In his adolescent years his brothers absence was a catalyst of bitterness towards his older sibling though this faded as he got older and more mature and earned to respect his brothers decisions. Due to his towering size, his older kin called him the giant of Leuven despite him never actually seen the ancestral home.
The Expeditions to the Northern Reaches
Garcia joined Andris Galati and Darius on an expedition to the Northern Reaches to stake a wooden pillar near the edge of the world to determine if indeed the world was shrinking as theorized by Darius's grandfather, Dalzell. A second group was planned to examine the spot a year later to see if at all the post was any closer to the edge and so Garcia once again volunteered to companion Darius who was to lead the second expedition. Due to the success of the journey a year before, it was judged that the pair would be able to complete the mission without the support of Andris who had only joined them the year prior due to his vast experience in the north.
As the pair reach the abandoned hunters cavern after a days march, it is clear to them that even in the one year the weather since their last journey has drastically taken a toll for the worse. As they share a moment of laughter in the cavern over some food, they are reminded by the harsh reality of the northern reaches as a howl of a wolf outside reminds them of the dangers beyond the snow wall that separate's them from the outside world. Darius fears are eased with Garcia at his side citing that there were few things more deadly than a starving desperate wolf. But the son of Andris Galati was sure one of them.
