Personal history

Gellan was raised in moderate luxury, and took over his father's trading business when he was 23. For the next forty years, Gellan worked to build the industry up, accumulating more and more wealth by buying more and more ships. When the Sea Princes descended upon the coast, Gellan was able to use his funds to buy protection - and bribe pirates - allowing his business to continue, essentially monopolizing trade in Saltmarsh during that period. Furthermore, that wealth has allowed him to live fashionably and be a patron of the arts within the town, entertaining the many folk of Saltmarsh with parties and banquates galore.

Morality & Philosophy

Gellan Primewater, ultimately, just wants to live his comfortable, dandy life. He will throw as much money as needed at a problem to make it go away, and will do almost anything for a profit. That said, he shares much of this luxury with the people, rather than being miserly.

Wealth & Financial state

The Primewater estate is the wealthies in town via a variety of import and export businesses, and in town it's an open secret Gellan has fingers in the smuggling pie (not that there's any proof). Gellan's wealth is in things; art, trade goods, clothes, food, etc. He doesn't keep it all locked up in a vault as gold bars, what's the point of all that money if it isn't being spent?
