**Rolen Sunmane** is an Earth Genasi cleric and a member of the party. He is played by George.

Rolen is the youngest child of three, born to elven nobility and grew up on his family estate in the outskirts of Baldur's Gate. He left his family household in order to prove his worth as a knight in the name of House Sunmane. He set off to the City of Blood to serve as a guardsman, with the hope he'd, one day, be inducted into the Flaming Fist and rise the ranks to rival that of his elder siblings' gifted stations. He was a loyal servant of Helm, the patron god of Baldur's Gate, and lived every waking moment to the dogma of the Vigilant One.

He is one of the original members of the party who was hired by Gundren, personally, to bring a wagonload of provisions to the rough-and-tumble settlement of Phandalin. He has since been mixed up in a larger plot with the Cragmaw goblins, the Redbrands and an ominous figure known as the Black Spider.

He met his demise in the basement of the Tresendar Manor, within the belly of the Redbrands hideout. Rolen charged into a room, a prison cell harbouring three small kidnapped children. Ihail let off a *Sleep* spell which, much to the surprise of both Ihail and the two bandits flanking the doorway, inevitably caused Rolen's death. In the void, he was visited by Helm, who, for unknown reasons, had forsaken his worship. Rolen awoke in a room with a note addressed to a Lord Iarno Albrek and the commitment to a new god, Selûne.

## Relationships

### Helm

Rolen served as a devout disciple of Helm, striving to protect his comrades and innocents alike. He was knighted under Helm's name; he served as a guardsman of Baldur's Gate under Helm's name; he even strived for the Flaming Fist under Helm's name. He lived by Helm's dogma day in and day out. However, he also died under Helm's name. Upon being visited within a void-like space, Helm was testing the young man, and unfortunately, Rolen had failed his test. Rolen was forced to forsake his worship and opt for a new charge. He chose Selûne.

Rolen holds no grudge against Helm, and, surprisingly, doesn't blame the Vigilant One for discarding him. Rolen blames himself as he was not able to protect himself, those children, his friends, the one moment that counted.
