Favorite Color: Silver Grey
Favorite Food: Roasted Turkey Legs
Favorite Subject: Surprisingly, Galaphile really likes history.
Likes: Getting his hands dirty, being involved in things, a challenge or test of skill.
Dislikes: Being pampered, people getting in his way or walking slowly, waiting.
Hobbies: Galaphile likes woodwork, camping, long walks, and listening to instrumental music.
Dreams: To complete the quest he has charged himself with, get his eye healed, and then settle down and have many, many children.
Lovelife: None currently.
Family: Aphrodite Gallowglass, his mother. Rupert Gallowglass, his Father.
Friends: Bremen, his mix breed German Shepherd and Rottweiler. Seiji and Galaphile get along well, but he wouldn't call him a friend.
Strengths: Galaphile is a trained swordsman, skilled both in the use of Daisho, broad swords, and Tonfa, his preferred weapons. He also has the use of his strange, innate magic. He is knowledgeable in all arts of warfare and diplomacy, which extends to espionage.
Weaknesses: Waiting on someone or something makes him impatient. He paces, becomes irritable, fidgets, talks about this being a waste of his time, etc. He despises people who complain about their best or ‘I can’t’, which are best used sparingly around him. The sight in his left eye is slowly fading, it will be gone completely in a few years unless he can get it healed correctly.
Appearance: Obviously not human, Galaphile is a tall lean man, standing nearly seven feet tall. He is well muscled, strong, and fast. His skin is light gray, his hair a dark white and shoulder length, cut back to stay out of his eyes. His face sports a scaled, purple patch that covers his scar. The scar is smooth and has an unnatural texture, and it's unsettling to look at, often frightening when people first see it. His ear's points are rounded instead of pointed. He wears the dark armor of the Royal guard and normally carries his Rune Sword Arkon on his right hip.
Galaphile wears the light, black partial armor of the royal guard. His Daisho are tied in place with a red sash and leather belt hidden under the sash.
Personality: Galaphile is calm and measured. At his best when confronted with a problem or situation that requires his attention. He excludes calm and control even in the worst circumstances. Though he does seem distant even to his peers, it is almost like he is keeping himself apart from them intentionally. This stems from the large ugly scar on the side of his face. He is truly alive in battle, taking pleasure from the challenge and skill needed to stay alive. He cares little for honor, unless it is truly called for. He is concerned with winning, not fighting fair. This applies to both the battle field and diplomatic arenas. Gallowglass is a good leader, tolerant, and understands that everyone makes mistakes.
History: Galaphile came to Tou under mysterious circumstances. Nearly 30 years ago, he descended out of the sky one day. His mecha damaged and partially melted with blood leaking out of the cockpit. After landing, the chest opened to reveal a man that was not human. The first anyone had seen in a very long time. Before anyone could ask questions, he passed out.
Nearly a week later he awoke, after his Mecha was repaired and his wounds had healed. When he was strong enough, he had a long talk with the King and Queen. Shortly there after, he was placed in the Royal Guard, no explanation was ever given.
Ten years later, when the old king and queen died, he left the guard and took to piloting his Dragon again. He has always shown great loyalty to the royal family. But, there has always been something unsettling about him. Something that crackles around him when he leaves the confines of Tou. Something buried in his past that only the dead king and queen knew about. Something they never shared with their children. Saying only to their children that they could always trust him.
Item: Archon, an ancient rune sword of immense power. It can shrink or grow so that both pilot and mecha can use it, returns to the hand of it's owner when called, and it is indestructible. It's said to have other powers, but doesn't exhibit them.
