Mordread clothes mostly resemble his cousins during SAO. he wears a black longsleve coat, with red highlights on the body and his arms, and a long blblack belt with golden buckle.

He carreis his sword on his back, with a dark brown belt slung across his chest with also a golden buckle.

Still, his signature characteristic is his dark dragon-like mask, which has read eyes after his eyes and a sigle front look of his hair golnig down across his right eye. It is very strage for him to remove the mask.

He also continues to wear his skull pendant on his neck.

Personality
Mordread was formerly kind, very caring to his friends, much lickely to any of the members of the Royal Knights. He had a great realtionship with Galant, being one of his best friends, just next to Shun and Tai. He still shows sometimes a sadistic personality, capable of doing anything to get what he wants no matter the way.

After a difficult moment lived, he was left behind by Galant, choosing Shun and Sakura instead, and costing Mordread of the scar on his face. After that moment, Mordread left all the faith he had on his friends and developed viseral hartred to all of them, specially Galant. He became much more ruthless, vengative and full of anger.

Once he entered the game, and noticed that they were there, Mordread decided to take revenge on all of them. This caused him to develop the same thing as Galant would months after: Darkness. His eyes began to glow red crimson, and he accepted this, saying that it was the path he was forced by Galant, and despices him as well. Mordread is consumed by revenge, but he fully managed to controle Darkness.

The same as Galant did with his name, he left his own, Miya, behind. He did dis with the excuse that that person was dead, and the one that rise from it, was Mordread, a being molded and forged by darkness itself.

Background
He is the cousin of Hao and his brother, who were taking to live with him after their parrents died. He attended school as every typical boy of his age. Among his classmates his bests friends: Galant Lance, Guinevere, Gawn, Dagonet, Bors, Percival, Tristan and Galahad.

At some point of the game, he was expossed Darkness, what caused he do develop his streght stamina, agility, rection, etc...

Combat Prowess
Mordread is a extreamly skilled player in Sword Art Online. He is probably Laughing Coffin's most powerful member, suprassing even PoH himself. He is an extremly proficent at the use of a one handed sword, and the same using multiple knives long at the same time on both hands. A total of 6 as max, one on each spece between his four figners(no thumb). he can use this either as a throwing weapon or at close quarters. His skills also include hand-to-hand combat after performing several Martial Arts in real life, accompanied by the fact that he hels a Martial Arts Sword Skill. He is an expert capable of defeating a normal person with a single powerful hit, if well placed. It would seem that his hands are his main weapon, but the level of Mordread's training makes his entire body a weapon. This skills suprass the one Bors and even Galant at some moments.

Still, Mordread's ace is his own Darkness, result of his desire for vengaence. This made him develop greatly his skills at hand to hand combat, streght, stamina, speed and other overal abilities in similar mode that Galant's Wrath mode does. Still this has a disadvatage: the pain, but Mordread has learned to control it, developing greatly his pain endurance.

By the time of New ALO, Mordread has fully achived the use of Darkness,using it almost as personal will. He can use this in replacement of  the Magic Points he does not have. He is capable of using it as personal will almost, as if it would be an unique skill of him, after fully accepting it within his body. This facts make Mordread the top warrior of his new guild and one of the best warriors in New ALfheim Online.
