Personality
Galant has an undying friendship with his friends and an undying love for his wife, Guinevere. Galant sees friends as the most valuable thing a person can have; he believes no one should ever have to be alone, and tries to convince others who reject friendship that it is something to be embraced.

He was formely demonstrated showmanship by pacing his fights with variety of attacks, demonstrating graphically gruesome executions, and laughing and roaring always. With a love for battle, he reveals an excited grin whenever confronted. Though he pursues physical female companionship on a constant basis, he does not mistreat women and possesses a strong moral code. Yet, beyond his cockiness and boastful personality, there is an underlying sense of honor about him that creeps to the surface, and a strong sence of what friendship and loyalty means. After he developed feelings for Sakura, his personality changed a lot.

Galant afterwards is usually depicted as being serious, calm, clear minded; even in very dangerous situations. He beleived that the power from the bond of his friends would give them the strength to overcome any situation and challenge. Contrary of many other players, he does not hold despise on Kayaba for prisoning them in the death-game.

When his reaming teammates were killed by Laughing Coffin and he was unfairly sent to prison, he completely changed his personality. He cleared his head to have just two goals in mind: clearing the game and his thirst for vengeance. Due to this, he became reckless and even violent, but still remains his good will and his serious and warrior-like personality. He also became a user of Darkness by this. He also lost confidence in himself, blaming himself for leading of his friends to their deaths. He became a solo player so that he could not endanger anyone anymore.

Galant formely did not belive in Fate, but after Guinevere's death, his belief on it increased until the point of certanty. He finally acepted his fate, embraced his new path, which was vengeance for what had happened to his friends.

Background
Galant was born on August 17th of 2007. He is the son of Kiritsugu (unknown surename), a japanesse man, and Norah Evans, a american woman. Galant is a mixed raced kid. He attended school as every typical boy of his age. Among his clasmentes where his girlfiend, Guinevere and bests friends: Lance, Gawn, Dagonet, Bors, Percival, Tristan and Galahad. Thanks to the last one, they obteined the game Sword Art Online and the NerveGear, due to his father worked in Argus. They loged in, and soon discovered that they could not log out. When Kayaba Akihiko revelead his true intetions creating SAO, they created a guild called "Royal Knights". He was voted as leader and has the intetions of clearing the game alongside his friends.

Galant became one of the Legendaries players of Aincrad, both his name and deeds and achivemets known ad respected by the player of both SAO and New ALO.

Player Report
Galant/Player Report

Combat Prowess
Galant's fighing style, as much as the players of Aincrad, became better as it advanced in the game. His skills are in part result of training with Kirei Kyosho and his own skills. He favored in battle sword and shield, though he is much more seen not ussing the later, due to it makes him move with less speed, and he favors speed and agility in battle more than solid ground attacks.

Arriving to a year after the begginig of SAO, Galant became one of the top-fighters of his army, not just almost an extremly esquilled swordsman, but also an very good hand to hand combatent, thanks to the lessons of Bors, and the fact that he had a Martial Arts Skill. He has also developed a great durability, and can face several enemies at the same time, with getting tired, nor stoped by the pain they couse him. This endurance even made him afford the pain of being tortured several times with pain absorber in level zero.

Following his gladiatorial training, Galant greatly develops his fighting abilities and eventually becomes the true Champion of the Ludus, and later, Champion of Aincrad. Galant is skilled in multiple styles of combat and in use of a cross-section of weapons. Being able to fight with a sword and shield, single-sword, sword and dagger, and latter on ALO, after obtaining Maximus Caliburn, dual swords. He has also adept to use any weapon at his disposal; like spears, daggers and hammers; and is has became extremely proficient in unarmed combat. Galant also has a great determination, that keeps him fighting until his very last breath, even if he looses some limbs, suffers pain or is left with few HP. He bacame also capable of summoning  Stardust Dragon.

As result of his extensive training and constant level up on both games, he is viewed as one of games' top warriors, capable of fighting alone, and defeating and/or kill skilled enemies or several players in groups. His skills even match unique skill players, like Ishi and Aki.

In ALO Galant is also a very skilled flying. He quickly adapted to fly, even without the control for manual flying. He is very fast at the time of flying, and moves in swift speed, with agile, and fast movements, that level up his skill with weapons. Still, Galant does not favor much flying, more adept to ground fighting, but if necesary, he would fly.

Galant also is able to enter into a berserker rage in combat, which greatly augments his strength and overall ability.

Tactical Ability

Altogether, Galant is a force to be reckoned in the battlefield. His keen intellect and deadly skill combine to make him a true master of war. He is a skilled strategist and tactician. These traits, coupled with his bold, proficient tactics have provided invaluable leadership to their guild, giving them an unblemished record in battle that matches even when he met his intellectual and tactical equal, Cerdic (though he proven better than him).

Other Forms
Wrath Galant

After the death of his friends and wife, Galant recived Darkness within his heart. And as time grew, so did it. Because of this, Galant is capable of entering a "Berseker Rage State", also called "Wrath Galant". To enter this form, Galant has to be really angry, upset, or with wishes to kill, and so his eyes brilliant blue eyes glow, change into shining crimson red.

This form greatly augments his strength and overall ability, capable of facing large groups of oponents, or other that are bigger and stronger than him without hesitation. Still, this form also incriments Galant's savage, and is very difficult to control it. He cannot enter this form by personal will and must change by getting really upset. Towards the end of SAO, Galant seems to have leared how to use it and to activate it, by blinking his eyes. Still, if he is enraged, the wrath state is activated without blinking.

Relationships
Galant/Relationships

Due to his personality, he atracts most people that belive him a great leader and a good person. Thought he is on deep love with Guinevere, he knows that other girls are atracted or have fellings for him.

After becoming  a player killer, Galant's personality changes in gradually, and tends to avoid people, yet, many people are still attached or relationed with him.
