Garv Dufort

I'm also quite the fool.

-- Garv Dufort

A fencing champion, prolific actor, and executive of an organization

of spirit mediums. Garv Dufort rose from the ruins of his family lineage into

global stardom. He balances this fame with the secrecy of STYX; an organization containing spiritual mediums from across the world. Now he arrives at the crossroads as a new challenger!

Backstory

Garv's homeland was torn apart by perpetual conflict and unrest. It's name and culture forgotten by its own people, afflicted with constant war for nearly two centuries.

Garv never got to know his family and grew up completely alone within the volatile land.   However, Garv had been come from a lineage of smiths long forgotten by the world. Within the ruins of ancient buildings he had found the tales of his family that described their super natural abilities. Eventually, Garv awakened his abilities as a medium and soon after fled his homeland.

As a refugee, Garv was adopted by the Dufort family in France. He quickly became accustomed and would soon call it home. He took an interest in fencing and competed within many tournaments. Garv's victory at the Olympics begun his worldwide fame. After finishing his career as a fencer he took up acting, featuring in several successful movies. All the while honing the abilities he had awakened long ago.

However at his peak he was approached by the leader of STYX. They knew of his abilities as a medium and gave Garv an ultimatum. Join STYX as an executive member or immediately be disposed of. Garv had never once before backed down from a challenge but in his mind he had already known that the battle was unwinnable. Garv surrendered and joined STYX as an executive.

Now that he had joined STYX he took up the duties of an enforcer. Using his fame as a cover to search the world for mediums and offer them the

same decision he had been given.

Personality

An eccentric individual with a love for theatrics. Upon first meeting many may think he's a gentleman, but soon it becomes obvious he has a bit of an ego. Boisterous, cocky, and pompous but ultimately good natured. Garv is conscious of those around him and can adjust his tendencies (to the best of his ability). Usually talking up himself than talking down to other people. Tends to apply literary roles to himself and other people. (protagonist, antagonist, etc).

Garv respects people who are driven and skilled. Whether it be fellow masters of a craft or those still learning, Garv likes seeing dedication to specific talents. He may dispense a bit of wisdom to a person who may need it. People with strong resolve despite lacking such things also gain his respect.

Garv doesn't like people who are passive. Those who won't make the decisive move or are unsure of what to do. If a person would rather wait something out than take action then Garv would consider them a coward.  

In battle Garv can be prone to making a snide remark against a foe. More often than not its just a little trash talk but he can be quite scathing to an opponent he doesn’t respect.  

Garv built up an image of himself to be a great champion. Due to his surrender to STYX and the years he has spent working for them, this image has formed many cracks. Only time will tell whether it can hold within the tournament.
