    Universe of Origin: Berserk
    Personality: Guts is outwardly very solitary and stoic, avoiding people for a multitude of reasons, the constant demon attacks being foremost. That's not to say he can't make friends; Guts is just not a people person. In fact, he has an aversion to being touched by men.
Inwardly, he carries a force of sheer rage, a hate so pure, so unbridled it carries him across the land fighting demons every night until he can exact revenge on Griffith.
ABILITIES
-Strength- Guts was adopted by a mercenary, and was trained as a child to use a man's sword. As a result, he became accustomed to using oversized blades, and grew very strong as a result. His strength reaches the limit of what can be achieved by a human.
-Swordsmanship- Guts is naturally accustomed to fighting, having spent his entire life working for various groups of mercenaries, and several years fighting demons almost nightly. He can whip around the Dragonslayer like a cardboard tube, and his strength combined with its sheer mass allows him to cleave through flesh, bone, and armor. Chopping through even a men is a feat; Guts can cleave the limbs off of monsters.
-Other fighty stuff- Guts is versed in crossbows, throwing knives, and has a working knowledge of most common battlefield tools.
-The Brand- A small cursed mark on the back of Guts' neck. It bleeds when monsters and demons are near, alerting Guts to their presence. Unfortunately, it also marks Guts as a target; demons are inclined to attack him on sight, and at night they come out in droves to attack him. Its demon attracting effects can be suppressed with regular applications of a seal. However, it can't be fully removed by any means.
TOOLS OF THE TRADE
-The Dragonslayer- "It was too long, too thick, and too rough to be called a sword. It was more like a huge slab of iron." This massive greatsword boasts a heft of over a hundred pounds. Most swordsmen would have a hard time just swinging it, let alone fighting properly. Guts is only able to wield it because he was raised using oversized swords. By slaying countless monsters, the sword has taken on magical properties, and can now harm magical beings that can't be hurt by mundane weapons. As its name suggests, it was commissioned as a weapon able to kill a dragon, but was too large to be used until Guts came along.
-Crossbow- A small, hand-cranked bow that fires small bolts in rapid succession
-Throwing Knives- Small knives weighted specifically for throwing
-Dagger- It's a dagger.
-Explosives- Small explosives that resemble a spiky berry. With a short fuse, they're designed to be lit and thrown. They're not particularly powerful, but can still blow your fingers off.
-Prosthetic Arm- Guts' left arm is actually a prosthetic made of metal; it holds swords via magnets. The forearm houses a small cannon.
-Armor of the Berserk- Guts' most powerful and dangerous tool is a cursed set of dwarf-forged armor. Upon activation, Guts enters a state of pure, blind rage, and several other effects. The body, for example, naturally limits how much force you exert so that you don't harm yourself. The armor negates this, resulting in Guts' already massive strength reaching superhuman levels. He can hit, jump, and attack with power several times greater than normal, resulting in feats like somersaulting several times mid-air while swinging the Dragonslayer. Additionally, it negates pain, and shoots spikes into Guts' body if he receives a fracture, allowing him to fight unhindered until he receives a lethal wound. Unfortunately, this also means Guts can take a lot of damage if it's used for too long. Additionally, the state of rage entered is also hard to leave. After defeating all enemies, he'll turn on allies if he fails to stop.

-Behelit- A small, egg-like object with human facial features scattered around. It can't be lost or discarded by its owner until it is used.
-Bag- A stylish bag for carrying stuff.
    Backstory: 25 years of continuous manga. Here's the short version.
Guts was raised as a mercenary and went through all sorts of tough shit until landing in with the Band of the Hawk, a group led by Griffith. They did all sorts of cool stuff and eventually became renowned. Guts had a romance with a fellow member, then left. Griffith was effected by Guts' departure and got caught shagging the princess, and tossed in the dungeon for the better part of a year. Guts and crew teamed up and rescued Griffith; however, Griffith realized his situation was so bad, he activated his Behelit, and sacrificed all his the entire mercenary band present- Guts included to get branded, marking them to get killed by demons and dragged to Hell. In the process, Guts lost his left arm and right eye, and another member got her mind broken. Griffith became some sort of God (even the manga hasn't clarified what exactly he is and what he can do).
After this, Guts set off on a trail of revenge, hunting demons until he could manage to find and kill Griffith.

After killing the Sea God, the Dragonslayer entered a state of "magic overload". Upon trying a practice swing while thinking very hard how he wished he wasn't on a boat, Guts accidentally cut a rip in space, beginning his magical multiverse adventure.
