Sharvan Silvermane was an Aasimar Paladin and Overseer of Silver Blades of BaelVarnath. He was a man of strong (some would say extreme) ideals, inherited from his connection to Mount Celestia. His Celestial guide was a Solar, who are known to embody an absolute view of Good and Law to the highest degree.
While he was generally lauded by the citizens of BaelVarnath for his good deeds, his methods were sometimes viewed as extreme, though they adhered to his guide's strict definition of Good. His first (and last) Evil act was to attack the Iron Blades who had stepped in to stop him from killing an innocent orc. This act caused his Solar guide to abandon him, marking him as Fallen.
Sharvan was killed in this battle by an arrow to the face delivered, point-blank, by Iron Blade Siegfried Schmidt.
