Often, his void-hued hair droops in messy curls to act as a veil obstructing his vision; Inherited from his late Father. His visage consist of light olive skin, embellished with thin pink lips, a rather flat nose, and finished with warm hazel hues; handsome in its own special way. When serving with the Serim Knights, his attire naturally consist of lustrous segments of Seromian crafted plate into sturdy armour. These suits usually lacked lower body armor , as to allow greater mobility. Naturally, an enclosed helm accompanies this. During celebrations and festivals, a highly decorative vestment was worn over top the armour; The knight’s accolades pinned to this. [⇹][color=BDB76B][sub]Biography[/sub][/color] Garret was the first and only son born to a well-respected Serim Knight. His mother, a seamstress, died whilst giving birth; Which left his father distraught for some time. Gerrett spent most if not all his childhood within the Guild's hall, hearing the revered tales of many a veteran. The Serim are a respected mercenary group; often mistaken for Empire Soldiers, with the innumerable members, Uniform..well..uniforms, combat prowess, and rigid class structure. Not only are they mistaken, but the EOM(Empire of Man) often employs them for high-risk missions. Each member has 'Honor, Duty, and Devotion' instilled into their mind during the rigorous training one must undergo to join. At around 10 Garrett began as a squire, running small task for his Father and occasionally tagging along with a Clearing Party. Clearing Parties are groups of Serim Knights(of no less than 2 and no more than 5) hired to exterminate monsters from an area. Squires are only allowed to accompany them for missions with little to no threat. The relationship between He and the Knights was good enough for them to -through the Grandmaster's approval- allow him to not only carry a weapon but undergo more dangerous missions. One such mission, a 17 year old Garret and his Father were tasked to clear what was seemingly an easy dungeon. However, upon arrival they discovered a plethora of beast, which they engaged in combat. The battle ends with beasts slain along with his Father; Garret seriously injured. As per tradition, his sword was returned to the guild to be stored amongst the other blades in the 'Hall of Honor'. This encounter inspires Garrett to be a better man, a better [i]Knight[/i] for his Father. Honor. Duty. Devotion. Exactly what they put into Garrett, as he came of age to formally join(that age is 22). The training was fraught with difficulty but through determination, grit, and blood(quite a bit actually), he prevailed. The ceremony for accepted individuals is held within the halls and before the Grandmaster, whom bestows the Knight with his or her armaments. Garrett, upon stepping to pedestal instead received the blade of his late Father,dubbed [i]The Light[/i], which he accepted with teary eyes. Since that day, Garrett has underwent numerous missions and gained renown equal to if not above his father. [⇹][color=BDB76B][sub]Fighting Style[/sub][/color] The fighting style of the Serim consist of inherently normal sword strikes and movements, but chained with unorthodox movements from the Knight his/herself. Such as rolls, dashes, and the occasional jump. These movements were adopted due to the lack of lower body armor, which allows for exceptional movement.
