Trading his sword for a plowshare, Daran Edermath came to Phandalin in search of a quiet retirement after suffering a grievous wound in the defense of Greenest during The Tyranny of Dragons. The graying half-elf walks with a pronounced limp (a permanent token of his time spent fighting in the conflict).

Once a member of the Order of the Gauntlet, Edermath’s smiting days are in his past. However, Order members travel through Phandalin from time to time, visiting their old friend or seek the hospitality of his orchard, often bringing news of the wider world along with them.
