Strengths: an excellent melee combatant. Favoring swords and spears in combat. as a member of the Royal Guard in his home world, he is also an accomplished horseman and skilled leader of men who was also trained in the subtle, social arts of court. Finally, he was blessed by his lady with a fraction of her magic. giving him an empathetic link to her and allowing for her to pass her magic on to him.

Personality: Due to his upbringing, Garrett always had a great respect and admiration for members of the Royal Guard and even as a young man would emulate them and imagine himself as a powerful protector of the Royal Family and the people of his homeland. As a guard, Garrett is strong-willed and fervent, loyal, passionate and proud of his work. he is brave earnest and acts with careful thought. although he treats everyone with kindness he is always observant and particularly suspicious of new individuals, especially those who approach his charge. anyone who betrays his trust or threatens his lady will find themselves facing a implacable and utterly ruthless foe. Despite this darker side of his personality, Garrett is excellent at compartmentalizing. in his personal life he is a fun loving and faithful friend if only a bit sarcastic.
Bio: Born in to a family of Royal Guardsman, Garrett's earliest ambition was to follow in his fathers footsteps and serve as a Royal Guard. not content to ride in on his fathers coat tails Garrett insisted on joining the service young and earning his way up through the ranks until he was able to prove himself in his own eyes earning his position through merit. he was surprised though when he was assigned to protect the eldest princess of the kingdom. curious as to why she was not the crown princess he found his answer on there first meeting. She was blind and therefore unfit to rule. undaunted he took to his task and became fast friends with the princess and the small contingent of man at arms who also served as her guard. implicit trust would follow after an attempt was made on the princesses life by a mad cult all apparently dedicated to bringing about the end of light. Garrett and the guardsmen waged a shadow war against the cult which culminated in a battle in the courtyard of the princesses keep. it was there that she revealed her power and it was there that Garrett suffered a near fatal blow in place of his charge. almost certain that he was to die there Garrett was surprised when his princess used her powers to save his life. Years would pass and he was content serving his lady, thinking that life would continue as always.
The dark times came swiftly though when the holy sun was blotted out of the sky and creatures of darkness began to appear all throughout the country. the war was long, costly and lost. pushed back in to the keep and in the same courtyard where he almost died years ago, Garrett stood side by side with the valiant men-at-arms whom he had spent many years with alongside the princess who's magic radiated with the intensity of a star. the world turned black and after a sickening sensation of falling Garrett opened his eyes to find himself in a new world alone with only the barest hint of his princess being alive.
Garrett now lives in this new world he finds himself in, offering his services as a bodyguard and peacekeeper. he is constantly searching for news about his comrades and his princess hoping that he will be able to return to them once again and try to reclaim there home... or maybe bring them to this new world where they can all start anew.
