History
Background
The Grand Paladin is not one person, but an 'eternal being' that is the accumulation of the knowledge, and personalities of all those who have contained the spirit before. By undergoing a magical process using the Final Gift spell, the Grand Paladin spirit is transferred to its new host, effectively killing their body in order to fuse their spirits together. This allows the new Grand Paladin insight into the past, but it also affects their personality, since some of the traits of previous Grand Paladins are carried over. This process may also affect the physical appearance of the new host. When the current Grand Paladin dies, a flame in the Grand Paladin Order's headquarters in Kaddoral dies out, signalling their death. There have been either three or four Grand Paladins, up to and including Gwyneth Sunsword.
While confronting Bopen the Skeleton King, Virgo Sunsword, the Grand Paladin at the time, tells him that he can't kill what he is, alluding to the fact that his Grand Paladin spirit will live on. After taunting and battling with Virgo some more, Bopen decapitates Virgo, killing him.
Upon arriving in Kaddoral, Gwyneth Sunsword is told by her brother, Galen Sunsword that the Grand Paladin's flame has gone out, alerting them to Virgo's death. Lance Willakers tells Galen that he is to become the next Grand Paladin, but after the Ageless attack on the headquarters, Galen decides that he is better suited to serve in Virgo's place on the Elven Council, the Mana Arc, and so Gwyneth Sunsword is chosen to become the next Grand Paladin.
Gwyneth Sunsword, now the Grand Paladin, orders the removal of the ceasefire against civilized Ageless, resulting in the massacre of many innocent Ageless, and the raiding of many previously Ageless-friendly towns, such as Reldawin.
Galen Sunsword receives an angry letter from his sister Gwyneth, stating that she couldn't believe how selfish he was, knowing that going through the process of becoming the Grand Paladin results in the destruction of your body, and yet he still let Gwyneth go through with it. Galen contemplates how he could have let this betrayal of his sister's trust happen, before he declares that he didn't really make the choice.
