Background

Khylon Oakspear was originally brought to the town by Mayor Walkar Wellington, having been an old contact of Walkar's during his time in Jantalar. Khylon was the leader of a mercenary group and has on occasion provided Walkar with some extra support in protecting the town.

After Grishom Stone's minions slaughtered many of the town's council members, Walkar appointed Khylon as a trusted councilman to help oversee the town's militia and their training. In 5112, Khylon was kidnapped by the Brotherhood of Rooks and held for ransom in return for the release of Drangell from the town's prison. After suffering over a month of torture and interrogation, Khylon was rescued by Landing Heroes and took time off to recover from his injuries and not before the Brotherhood of Rooks cut out his eye.

In 5114, the witch Raznel set a curse upon Khylon that left him almost completely paralyzed and diseased. He spent two years under the care of town healers. In early 5116 he began to show positive signs of recovering and even began walking short distances. When asked if he would like to return to his former position of Town Marshal, he said it was far too soon to tell, and his main focus was fighting off the cursed witch's magic.

As of 5120, Khylon was serving as the Guard Captain of the Town Guard until he ran for Marshal of the Wehnimer's Landing Militia. He was killed on Imaerasta 30, 5120 (September 30, 2020).
