Gildas Grimgaunt

A fallen paladin previously of a marcher order of the Knights Templar, Sir Grimgaunt joined the Sable Order in his descent and became its lieutenant. The party defeated Sir Grimgaunt at the Athenaeum and took him captive back to Carmarthen. Briefly captured by the Church, Sir Grimgaunt escaped while the Nine secured the coffin of the Black Cardinal, likely aided by the treachorous Anselm. Blackguards are paladins who broke their sacred oaths and now indulge their own dark ambitions. They consort with fiends and undead, and they reject all goodly things from their former lives.
