The Name Of The King
Once upon a time, there was a hero greater than any other. A swordsman without peer, he was called the greatest of the Knights of Cornelia; without fail, he slaughtered countless enemies, defending the kingdom and the land from innumerable destructive forces. As he fought, he became enraptured by the battle; as the legend goes, the hero fell into the darkness, and gave his soul to Chaos. He was defeated by the Light Warriors, and peace reigned across the world, or so the story goes. But stories are always more complicated than they appear...especially where the villainous Garland is concerned. A warrior of Chaos through and through, Garland is one of the foremost champions of the Darkness; he has joined with the Heartless for the sake of spreading destruction throughout the land, undermining peace and happiness wherever he can.
Those Who Serve Chaos
Garland has acquired an apprentice by the name of Angantyr. He has also taken an interest in Angantyr's friend, Avira.
The Power That Brings Ruin To The Worlds
Garland's observed abilities are myriad and extensive. What little is known about the man relates mostly to his mastery over the power of Darkness; it takes only a passing observer to recognize that Garland's heart is so far gone to the Light that it may be completely impossible to salvage. He radiates a Darkness strong enough to compete with the Light of a Princess of Heart as a result of his time as Chaos, and is fully capable of bending that darkness to his whims.
He has similarly been observed to possess strength to dwarf even the strongest adult males, holding a sword as long as he is and as wide as his shoulders in one hand as though it were a rapier and delivering blows strong enough to bring well-trained adult humans to their knees. Similarly he is unfathomably durable, capable of taking immense blows from forces both physical and magical and shrugging them off as though they were no more than bruises.
Most fearsome of Garland's known abilities, however, is Garland's absolute mastery over combat. He's been observed to be an incredible swordsman, capable of utterly dominating the flow of battle with merely his presence; similarly, he's capable of wielding his magic with his blade in a very physical way, something utterly unlike the powers of the Magic Knights who wander around.
