Galthen’s name appears in many places, for example: Galthen’s Chestplate as also he apparently connected to Monolit of the Planes.

Who he was and where else He is mentioned ?

Galthen was a tactician and commander of Scarlett Etzel. He was traveling with her in her campaings and destructions of artefacts. After several years together in battlefields, their relationship and bond become stronger than any other. Possibly due to the fights and disputes between this two, Galthen has suddently left her side and never returned.  Scarlett has decided to search for Galther, however, due to the curse of  the Cobra Amulet- Scarlett stopped searching for Galthen because of her deep feelings for him ""The bearer of this amulet will command the gaze, the resilience and deadliness of the cobra. Yet what firmly has its place in the heart of its wearer, the cobra will conceal."

It seems Galthen left Scarlett to search for magical artefacts which led him to Bounac. 

Galthen is offically deceased and we can find crypt with his burial case North from Edron - 129.194,123.250,7 - Near to Falcon Order. 

You see a burial case.

This massive burial case is the last resting place of the honourable knight Galthen.

In the same Crypt we will find Missing Piece of the Cube for Opticording Sphere Quest.

In his life he was a tactician and commander of Scarlett Etzel. He was traveling with her in her campain  They both 

Items related to him:

 Monolith of the Planes - Reward from Opticording Sphere Quest - When Monolith is active, there is a hidden message when coded in Binary language.

Note about Two Souls 

You see a note about two souls.

It weighs 0.50 oz.

Returning the amulet of the Cobra to its resting place has reversed everything that happened to Scarlett and Galthen after it was taken. For them only, however. You are truly selfless.

Lore was explained by Cipsoft as follows:

I really appreciate the interest of the Tibia Community in our lore and stories! Here are some additional notes on my story of Scarlett and Galthen:

The Cobra amulet is an extremely powerful artifact with an unknown origin as of now. Its traits are concentrated on a single individual but the curse will affect all things directly connected to the amulet and its wearer. When the amulet is returned to its eternal resting place, everything the taker, thus owner, of the amulet has experienced from that point in time onward will be undone. All of this, as already mentioned, will only affect events in direct relation to the bearer of the amulet and the bearer him- or herself.

In the case of Scarlett and Galthen, Scarlett was blinded towards Galthen while in turn a successful search for Scarlett was impeded by the amulet. Returning it to its resting place will alter the timeline for Scarlett (and also Galthen who is directly connected to the Scarlett, the amulet and ultimately the curse). So in their world, the events after the crypt never took place. Everything before that will still have happened. However, without the power of the Cobra, Scarlett will not continue the assassin path much further and she, as well as Galthen, will have the possibility to find each other. Both their searches would eventually be successful as they belong together.

By chosing to return the amulet, players are effectively building a somewhat happy ending for the two but will lose the amulet. That is why the note says: "You are truly selfless".

Galthen was Scarlett Etzel's right hand - tactician and commander. But also he criticised her actions, he was the only one to challenge her. Eventually, Galthen and Scarlett fell for each other - but they never confessed their love. After some battle failures and disagreements, Galthen disappeared without a trace. Scarlett kept looking for Galthen.

We can read about Galthen in following books:

  • The Order of the Cobra Compendium I 
  • The Order of the Cobra Compendium II 
  • The Order of the Cobra Compendium IV
  • Knightly Successor Orders of Tibia III

Scarlett's boyfriend. I'm pretty sure they were lovers or something romantic. Sure seems so.
