Sildar Hallwinter is a retired soldier and sellsword who hails from the city of Neverwinter. He is a loyal member of the Lords’ Alliance, a political organization that unites the various free cities and towns of the North.
Despite his restrained and almost cold mannerisms and speech, Sildar is kind-hearted and sincere, although lacking in confidence and charisma. He is generally risk-averse, although still willing to enter into potentially dangerous situations when no one else dared. He wishes to see the town of Phandalin prosper and to ensure that innocents—even fools—never come to any harm.
