Tal, one of the Three Lowly of the Faithlow of Dallet, is the founder of the town of Dalletosh. He is known as one of the original founders of [[Archive:Dalleton|Dalleton]], as well as the curator of the Library of Dallet. After the death of his mentor and friend, Busterbean, Tal spent time alone in the Prospitian woods, pondering his future and his relationship with his god, Dallet. After much introspection, Tal founded Dalletosh, a port town on the west coast of [[Archive:Prospit|Prospit]]. He hopes, one day, that the small town will grow into a hub of trade and culture for Prospit. Tal is played by GimmeYourTots, who joined the server on August 19th, 2021.

Tal was born in the forests of [[Archive:Prospit|Prospit]], the only child to a lowly family. His parents, poor and destitute, raised him on the banks of the river north of [[Archive:Dalleton|Dalleton]]. They practiced no particular religion, so naturally neither did Tal. His hometown had no name and was barely more than a collection of huts, but Tal grew to love it all the same. He was always a swift learner, becoming adept in survival tactics, excelling in fishing, and reading anything he could get his hands on from a young age. Building came second nature to him, and as he grew he quickly helped his village do the same, rebuilding decrepit homes and passing on knowledge to his neighbors. Tal was always stern and unwavering in his convictions, traits that carried on into his adult life. He believed that those closest to him, family and friends, were to be given the utmost importance. He abhorred war and anything like unto it, and vowed to never participate in one that was not in defense of his home.

After seeking out and receiving the religious texts of many towns of Prospit, Tal, ever the eager learner, decided to chronicle them in a library dedicated to the seeking out of all forms of knowledge. He decided to construct the Library of Dallet in a way that would be conducive to individual learning.

After the Dalleton-Acquendavia conflict, Busterbean passed away quietly in the Dalleton inn. His death sent a shockwave through Dalleton, and panic began to set in with those Dalletonians that had been so accustomed to Busterbean's calming presence. Tal, one of said distraught Dalletonians, had lost his mentor and oldest friend. He knew not where to turn. The other two of the Three Lowly, though sympathetic and clearly upset at the death of their leader, did not seem to have had the same emotional connection to Busterbean that Tal had had. Dalleton, full of discord and confusion, no longer felt like the haven of humility and peace that Tal had seen it be the years past. He decided that he needed some time alone to think about what he would do with his time, his title as one of the Three Lowly, and his friends. He sought out a place of refuge west of Dalleton, where he resided in deep thought about not only his future, but that of the Faithlow as a whole. He waited there, pondering his place in the world, for a few years.
