Father Gregorian Redbeard's Time in The Reach

Not much is known or remembered about Father Redbeard's early days in the Reach. He kept his head down, working on spreading the word of Pharasma and building up the Redbeard District. After the fight in the Reach against Dietrarc, Redbeard retreated to his district to focus on his preaching. As the months went by Redbeard saw on the Universal message board a cry for assistance from a man named James T. Rutherford who had been attacked by some terrible beast. Redbeard decided to help out but through a series of strange and unusual events he ended up facing a wraith. After this harrowing encounter Father Redbeard decided to go into retirement.  Months passed and a monk named Alison came informing him of the soul trapping that went on in Caeth Shaeras. Redbeard came out of his retirement and raised his army of five hundred shiver golems to help save the trapped souls. His golems helped defeat the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and earned Father Redbeard the title of a Lord of Caeth Shaeras A few months later on his 68th birthday Redbeard peacefull passed away in his sleep. Upon entering the boneyard he was approached by a Yamaraj psychopomp and was told that because of his works in the name of Pharasma and a called in favor by Smokestalker he was going to be sent back to the Reach as a part psychopomp to continue on his preachings and to help save the Reach a mission he continues to this day.

Redbeard is also the creator of the Saltborn Care Package.
