Safalaan Hallow is the leader of the Sanguinesti division of The Myreque. He is also the one who promotes you at the end of "Darkness of Hallowvale" to private. When you first meet him he is sketching Castle Drakan and he asks you to finish it for him. Safalaan has pale blue eyes and is a very tall man. He is also well-dressed, while every other human in Meiyerditch wears rags. For some, this is evidence that Safalaan may be a Vampyre. However, others believe that Safalaan is actually an Icyene, as in Legacy of Seergaze he single-handedly defeats a pair of Vyrewatches with a mysterious power blast. What Sarius Guile says to you in the Darkness of Hallowvale quest implies that Vanescula Drakan has a romantic interest in him.

[edit] Icyene or not?

In In Aid of the Myreque it is revealed that his last name is Hallow. This may be connected to the plaque in the Myreque base in Burgh de Rott, which reads: "Blessings on Efaritay, our Icyene Queen from far off lands and her loving children of Hallowed name." Note that the word Hallowed is capitalized, which normally would be used with names only.

In the book 'Histories of the Hallowland' (in-game known as Battered tome) the following piece of text can be found:

"…One such tale is of a Queen from a far away land of considerable power and revered by the peoples. It is also claimed that the peoples named the land ‘Hallowvale’ after her, though there is no true record of this."

This implies that the full name of the former queen of Hallowvale, Queen Efaritay, contained the word 'Hallow'.
