Baerrek Lightsworn is a Paladin of the Order of Dawn, one of the two knightly orders of Pho Lumia. As such he follows Pholtus, the God of The Sun and Moon. Lived in a mansion when he was younger, where he had at least several servants.

Baerrek rescued Thomas, a remaining pirate of Bloodhoof's crew. At first he was trying to train Thomas as a page, but he eventually settled on being his friend. Thomas left The Party when the Lightwalker's crew disbanded in Port Hacan, being given gold and a recommendation from Baerrek, he set of to become a hero himself.

Another associate of Baerrek, Secundus was one of the prisoners set to be sold into slavery by Gilligan in Grim Spike. Upon discovering Baerrek was a paladin of Pholtus, he became obsessed with him, which only got worse with time. After Baerrek told him to try and get help, he instead started a militia called the Oarsmen. Later, he also brought The Prophecy to the notice of the party.

Baerrek is friends with an horse known as Gleam, and has known him for most of his life. Once Baerrek became strong enough in his vows, Gleam became a Celestial Steed, gaining intelligence to match Talon. Baerrek enjoys caring for Gleam, brushing him down and spending time with him every day. Gleam has been shown to be able to untie knots to release himself from a stable when called, and defend the cart from horse thieves on his own.

Baerrek has a high sense of morals, which caused him to get extremely upset at Violet for claiming a magic item they found without conferring with the party. He later explained that during his time serving as an priest acolyte he encountered deep seated corruption in the leadership of his country, and people "taking what they want".

He has the ability to call upon his Aasimar bloodline and grow silver-grey wings and deepen his eyes into dark star-filled pits that bleed the night sky. Calling forth the light of Pholtus, he can also make his sword glow with accuracy increasing light. In Hacan Baerrek gained the Serpent Rider's Armour. It could be equipped from the Sack For Holding with an action, and also grew into barding for Gleam.

He has shown a taste for Tea, and has tried to taste many different varieties when possible. While shopping, he seemed extremely frugal to the annoyance of the rest of The Party.

He seemingly lost some of his offensive capabilities denoted by the sun, after killing a weak bandit wannabe and feeling guilty for taking a life of someone who he felt he had to protect. He instead gained the favour of the Moon, increasing his restorative magic.

In episode 16 General Myrandros picked up on Baerreks hunt of Kraken not being something that is usually under the purview of the Dawn, but while Baerrek didn't deny this, he also didn't elaborate. Later during a conversation with Violet he said that while he was a member of the Dawn, he also had prior allegiances.
