Galbry Alithárean born 948, Yophénthë, died 1014, Yophénthë, was the founder of the Arathracian Sunfathership after the Fall of Yophénthë. His devotion, monumentous efforts, and holiness were acknowledged by Sunfather Eredhean I in 1099. He was elected sunfather by the Arathracian College of Aigdemeans in 991, only about five years after the Fall of Yophénthë when open hostility from the occupying and pillaging sky tribes placed all Arathracian priests in danger for their lives. Galbry I served for nearly twenty three years until his death in 1014. His reign as sunfather established many precedents that are still practiced today by the sunfather. Like the other original sunfathers, Galbry used his birth name rather than choosing a regnal name.

The office of sunfather was adapted from the High Priest of Arathrax and not widely accepted outside of Erechóreb at the beginning of his reign. Galbry sustained the separation of the secular monarchy from the theocracy and established the precedent that his sons could not sunfathers or aigdemeans, one of the conditions imposed by the Kalikán.
