Gavin was born in Ulgoth's Beard, one of the younger children of a sailmaker and a midwife. He had an unremarkable childhood, until, at the age of 12, he discovered he had a talent for healing. At this point, he began his religious instruction at the Song of the Morning temple in Beregost.
Perhaps you met Gavin on the Sword Coast during your travels there, or perhaps you are meeting him for the first time. Either way, he will be happy to lend his hammer and his faith to your cause.
