History
In life, Sir Godfrey Gwylym was a night of the Order of the Silver Dragon. He held a romantic relationship with his uperior, Vladimir Horngaard. In the conflict with Strahd and his forces, Gwyilym was personally slain. This event devastated Horngaard and made him all the more resolved to destroy Strahd. After Horngaard fell at Argynvostholt, he rose again as a revenant, reanimating the rest of the Order as undead including Gwylim. Now they exist as revenants, their souls trapped in Barovia.[2] Horngaard's hatred has driven the love he and Godfrey shared from his memories[3]
