Editing Father Galdrin (section)

===Interactions with the PCs:===

Father Galdrin is desperate for allies to help with the growing threat in Barrenford. If the PCs approach him, he will be forthcoming with his concerns about the grave robberies, the missing people, and the appearance of undead. He encourages them to investigate, offering what assistance he can, such as healing or providing divine insight.

====Clues & Knowledge:====

*He knows that several graves have been disturbed but does not understand why.
*He has prayed to Gaeda for guidance, but the Earth Mother remains silent, something that deeply disturbs him. He believes the imbalance in the natural world may be related to necromantic forces but lacks proof.
*He can provide knowledge about local legends or past events that might explain the strange happenings, particularly concerning old burial sites or ancient magic tied to the land.
*Motivations:
Galdrin wants to protect the people of Barrenford and preserve the balance of nature in the region. His faith in Gaeda drives him, but his confidence is shaken by the lack of divine intervention. He seeks the PCs’ help to investigate and stop the dark forces at work, though he fears what they may uncover.

====Plot Hooks:====

*A Broken Faith:
Father Galdrin can ask the PCs to investigate the recent grave robberies and offer them clues about the rising undead presence in Barrenford. He fears that these disturbances are a sign of a much larger problem, one that may threaten the entire region if left unchecked.
*The Defiled Graveyard:
When the PCs visit the town’s graveyard, they may find Galdrin performing a solemn ritual to consecrate the ground and ward off evil. He asks for their aid in protecting the graveyard from further desecration, possibly leading to an encounter with undead or necromancers.
*Lost Faith:
As the story progresses, Father Galdrin’s faith in his ability to protect the town may falter, making him more vulnerable to despair. If the PCs notice this, they can choose to reassure him, restore his faith, or find another way to help him regain his confidence. In the darkest timeline, he may even turn to more extreme measures, such as seeking forbidden knowledge to combat the undead.
