Galaghard Obarskyr was a king of Cormyr. It is said that a particular moonstone chess set in the royal palace has a good likeness of him. He is Duar Obarskyr's only son and heir from his second wife. Duar remarried after his first wife's family betrayed the country. Galaghard only officially ruled Cormyr from 480 DR to 514 DR but his only son died quite late into his reign. Amedahast extended Galaghard's life with longevity magics which allowed him to assume the identity of his dead heir.
