Apparel & Accessories

Gaunter often flaunts black robes of varying styles, but mostly wears his trench coat that is more iconic among his peers, who consider it to be an unwise choice of apparel due to freedom of mobility, but respect Gaunter's choice nonetheless. His hands are the only part of his body aside from his face that remain exposed (unlike in the image displayed). He favors black boots out of any other foot accessory.

Mentality

Personal history

Gaunter spent his entire early life as an apprentice in the Temple of Det Uhellig, where he learned to become an skilled fighter. Gaunter had close relationships with most of the other apprentices and mentors alike, yet he enjoyed spending time alone when not in training. The mentors of Det Uhellig were generally awfully strict with training and indoctrination. Its apprentices are taught to embrace Death as part of themselves and care very little for distractions such as morality or politics, focusing on spirituality over material gain, some even go as far as seeking to become the avatar of Nequerian, God of Death.
 
Upon reaching a certain level of prowess, apprentices are sent to practice and perfect their abilities out in the world, alone, or with other apprentices. Gaunter left with 2 of them, Nataniel and Victoria. Together, they wandered throughout the lands and found great joy in bounty-hunting, where they would competitively hunt down wanted criminals, not for gold or for justice, but for experience and amusement. In one of these hunts, the trio decided to split up and look for 3 different wanted criminals at the same time, in a challenge of who gets the first kill. Gaunter was the first to arrive at the meeting spot, followed by Victoria. Nataniel would not come.
 
Following his tracks, they learned that the man Nataniel went out to kill had predicted their arrival, and devised a plan to ambush them with a group of vampire hunters. Nataniel was presumed dead, the body was nowhere to be found, and the group was still there, waiting for Gaunter and Victoria. Neither of them were prepared for hunters and were caught by surprise. The resulting battle ended with many losses for the hunters, as well as the death of Victoria.
 
This initially caused Gaunter to become deeply depressed, feeling grief and guilt, but his relationship and comprehension of Death, taught in Det Uhellig, aided him in overcoming his loss and continuing his way towards perfecting his skill, but not without intense feelings of loneliness, which encouraged him to seek friendliness and companionship with other people for the first time.

Gaunter has basic religious knowledge on the Gods of Eametora, but focusing mainly on Nequerian, God of Death, whose ideologies Det Uhellig is based on. Other than martial arts, Gaunter learned advanced mobility techniques (acrobatics), and self-control.

Should he be unable to assess risks due to any situation, Gaunter can act recklessly while defending his companions. Upon consuming blood, he enters a very vicious state where he forgets the reason he's fighting and start to do it simply to spread death and consume even more blood. He has difficulty evaluating people for their actions, discerning friends from foes simply by his feelings, and the situation they find themselves in, if any.
