Satine Whitestone, Grandmaster of the Galenics
A young woman in her early twenties, Satine is one of the youngest leaders ever to lead the Galenics. She has helmed the organization for two years now, and has performed admirably despite her relative inexperience in leadership.
Satine was originally the finest student of the master healer Wyr Solaceheart, becoming a full-fledged healer herself once her former mentor became Grandmaster. She was elected to her current position upon Wyr's death, after her husband - the knight commander Astaruc Whitestone - refused the honor.
While Satine still has little or no experience regarding some aspects of her position, she is in the process of learning them from her circle of advisors, among which sit the greatest leaders the order has ever produced. Her patience and generosity are nearly infinite, as is her willingness to simply listen to people - after all, these were the reasons why the Galenics chose her to lead them in the first place.
If Satine would have a flaw in her delicate nature, it would be that she is unable to bring herself to harm anyone or anything. Her indecision has stalemated a number of issues when she simply could not bring herself to slight any of the affected parties. Fortunately, the other ranking Galenics are not as deeply benevolent as she, and such issues are yet settled after a time.
In a way, Satine is the living embodiment of the Galenic Orders - beautiful, admirable, honorable, and in some ways too self-sacrificial for her own good.
