One is a half elf, the other is a moon elf. Both are Shadow Adepts that found the shadow weave without Shar's approval.

Novel-wise, who do you think is the better character?

-Galaeron just because there were more books he was featured in, some there was more to know about him.

I'm not saying Troy Denning did a bad job, but nothing really jumps out at me regarding Galaeron. I think Paul Kemp did a pretty good job in the Erevis Cale books going into his inner struggles and whatever as he was transforming, and he probably could've done a good job with Galaeron in that regard.

I agree. I feel Aeron Morieth was more fleshed out than Galaeron, but I did really like Galaeron a lot. I am surprised we don't hear anything more of those two, considering Shar doesn't really like good aligned creatures having control and possibly master of her Shadow Weave.
