I think the comment referred to Keldorn, but he's only 50ish. (40ish? The older Firecam daughter seems about my age--20--but the younger one seems to be in the 6-10 year range. Which makes me wonder how often Keldorn comes home!)

Keldorn's in-game profile:
"When asked about his past, Keldorn sighs and is forced to think for a moment before counting the number of years he has been a Paladin of Torm in the service of the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart. He has battled to protect the defenseless and punish the evil on more occasions than he can recall. A seasoned veteran with the scars to prove it, Keldorn speaks wistfully of retirement in the future and the opportunity to spend more time with his family. Upon their mention, however, Keldorn's attention wanders and grows grim. Duty is more important than personal considerations, he whispers harshly, so long as the Order has need of him."

And Anomen's:
"When asked about his past, Anomen is quick to state that he has been serving the Most Noble Order of the Radiant Heart for years, and after his Test he will be a full and true knight. Anomen is reluctant, however, to speak of his noble upbringing, saying only that he entered the Order without the support of his father, Lord Cor Delryn. Since he could not be sponsored as a squire, Anomen chose the route of the warrior and priest of Helm, the god of guardians, and has fought many battles over the years against forces of evil. Anomen often says that he is confident that he will prove worthy of his knighthood, but sometimes seems to be trying to convince himself of the fact more than anyone."

Gee, game, thanks for sharing what I couldn't find out by just playing the game! [img]tongue.gif[/img] (But thanks to Sorcerer's Place for the bios!)

I'm wondering if paladins study more in their early days than knights. There's a certain Keldorn/Yoshimo dialogue that springs to mind.
