Personality[]

Gawn was by far one of the closest friends that Galant had, they were almost always together, and Gawn always supported Galant in almost all decisions he took as their leader, even when he sometimes thought otherwise. This generally puts him in conflict with others, especially Lance and Dagonet. He also was generally calm and relaxed, yet this changed to become savage and deadly in battle or if he was raged by anything.

He is also generous and altruistic, as he is willing to fight for the sake of his friends and for those he considers his family.

Background[]

He attends school, like every typical boy of his age. Among his classmates are his friends: Galant, Lance, Guinevere, Dagonet, Bors, Percival, Tristan, and Galahad. Thanks to the last one's father, they obtained the game Sword Art Online and the NerveGear. They log in and soon discover that they can't log out. When Kayaba Akihiko reveals his true intentions in creating SAO, they create a guild called the "Royal Knights".

Galant

Gawn is one of Galants best friends. He had been friends with his since they were children.

Abilities[]

Similar to his two best friends, Tai received training from Kirei Kyosho in Kenjutsu, and even though he was notably skilled in the class, he never reached the level of his two friends. Through well adapted to fight with a sword, Gawn prefers the combination of mace and axe, using his above-average upper body strength, to easily defeat his enemies with his strong and precise attacks. Gawn's strength is accompanied by his agility and adaptability to almost any situation. Gawn is also notably skilled throwing tomahawks.

Gawn's skills place him as the third-best warrior of his guild, just below Galant and Lance.
