Personality
Generally calm and rational, reserved and detached, one would say that the Eretejva Tundra is a perfect match for the young man. He is an unexpectedly shrewd, quick-thinking individual. As a coin has two sides, so can be said of Gylfi. His patience is easily tested- fits of anger and outbursts of rage are common with Gylfi. With a temper like kindling, even the smallest of sparks threaten to set the young man off.
