History: Garath was once a minor demon of Hades, toiling to corrupt the Earth and bring about Satan's final victory on Judgement Day (not really). But one day, Garath stopped a mortal's suffering prematurely, and was cast out of Hell. Arriving in the mortal plane, his spirit took on a man's shape. (again, not really) With his falling from daemonic favor, the realization came to Garath that he might rise back into angelic favor, and become the way he was when Eden was new and Adam and Eve still uncorrupted. (No, he wasn't really around then) So Garath took up a crusade to protect the innocents of the Earth from his former brethren and to insure the eventual Ascension of mankind on the day of Judgement. And on that Judgement Day, if he has done well enough, he will be returned to his original place at the side of Christ. (No, that won't ever happen. You should realize this history is fiction by now!)

In reality, Garath was just a poor young man who was to be sacrificed by a Satanic cult. The trauma of being tied to a black altar, surrounded by crazed cultists was enough to awaken his powerful sleeping Avatar. A blast of pure Forces took care of the Satanists. But his mind had snapped in the process of Awakening, and he was born a Marauder. Since then, he has gone on a crusade against everything with the slightest taint of demons or the Wyrm. He was gained a massive amount of knowledge concerning the denizens of the World of Darkness, and has a mastery of Forces approaching that of an Oracle. In fact, the Oracles of Forces are considering asking him to join them.

Quiet: Guess what? Garath thinks he a former demon who can get back into heaven. That's his basic level of Quiet. At higher levels, he begins to see demons and/or angels where there is really nothing or he begins to see normal people as evil beings. A few times, his perception of reality became so warped he began to think he was back in Hell or Heaven.

Image: A medium-height, medium-build man in his early 20's. Long blond hair (think 80's rocker), and black clothing. He has a deep, quiet voice, and almost never yells.

Role-Playing Hints: Protect the innocent mortals all around you from harm and corruption. Any demon-spawn you meet will feel the full fury of your might. So what if bystanders are killed? They are better off dying by your hands then being corrupted by the devils and dragged screaming to hell. Gaze around implacably at everyone you meet. When you get angry, St. Elmo's fire starts to glow around your eyes and hands.
