About

Gildarts is a young and muscular boy with short black hair which is always messy. His body suffered many injuries in an accident and he lost his left leg and left arm. He uses very functional armor-like prosthetic limbs. His chest sports scars, two of which are stitched. He has very pretty blue eyes.

Gildarts’ attire is simple and practical, consisting of a dark, tattered cape over his black tee-shirt with a high collar and armored plates on the shoulders, held closed by a belt and usually covering his whole figure, and loose dark pants, complete with an armored waist-guard with plates similar to the ones on his shoulders, tucked inside simple boots.

He comes from a world of high magic. This is why he is so powerful at such a young age. Without his magic he is as fragile as a normal human boy of 11 years.

Personality

Gildarts is a laid-back, easygoing kid. He also appears to be a bit absent-minded and oblivious, and apparently doesn't pay attention to what he's doing, such as not recognizing people he has met before. He also has a tendency to break through walls with his Crash Magic in order to pass, rather than simply using the door, something which caused other people to not like him at times.

When he enters a fight, he often points out that he is bad at and dislikes holding back. When fighting, Gildarts would often employ exclusively hand-to-hand combat while using Crash to destroy things other than humans, such as the ground or Magic attacks, to avoid hurting people too bad. Should he be pushed to the limit, or choose not to hold back, his Magic power would react badly and pretty much destroy everyone and everything around him. He has a strong fighting spirit in that he respects his opponents, neither taking them too lightly nor overdoing. He also won't turn down a fight challenge offered to him. He hates to be called a kid or looked down upon because of his age.

In many ways, Gildarts appears to be somewhat of a lone wolf. Gildarts is also a bit of a flirt for a 11 year old which gets him in trouble often.

Equipment

Gildarts owns over 100 different types of armor, and well over 200 different weapons that he stores in a magic chest. He can use his Requip to get anything from this chest as long as the chest is not opened or destroyed completely.

Magic

Crash (クラッシュ Kurasshu): Gildarts' signature Magic, Crash is an extremely powerful Caster Type Magic that smashes everything the user comes into contact with into pieces. It can even be used to both crack Magic into pieces, nullifying its effects, as well as to reduce the Magic's power and to deflect it. Even the most powerful spells are rendered useless when faced with this destructive and highly advanced Magic, which is seemingly difficult to control even for an extremely powerful individual like Gildarts himself.
-- Crushing Evil, Spreading the Truth: Empyrean (破邪顕正・一天 Haja Kenshō : Itten): Gildarts first breaks the spell cast by his foe, and then blows the enemy into the sky with a powerful punch imbued with magical energy.

Disassembly Magic (lit. Separation) (分開 Punkai): Is a Caster Type Magic that creates a net-like pattern which runs straight through whatever it touches, whether tangible or intangible. However, instead of being destroyed, the objects that are touched split apart and form numerous, smaller versions of the original. When used on a living organism, the recipient gets reduced into small, doll-like versions of themselves, complete with deadpan expressions. In this case, the process is reverted back after some time, but Gildarts is also capable of revoking the spell to recreate the original person.

Requip: The Knight (換装 別名 ザ・ナイト Kansō Betsumei Za Naito): It is a type of Magic that allows him to swap weapons, armor and clothes at will. His particular form of Requip is called The Knight. He is noted for his ability to requip extremely fast and is known to be capable of requipping weapons and armor while fighting, something which made him and his immense strength well known throughout his place of residence.

Sword Magic (剣の魔法 Ken no Mahō): In addition to his signature Magic, Requip, Gildarts is also an extremely talented user of Sword Magic. As the name implies, this is a type of Magic which revolves around the use of swords. Through the use of this Magic, Gildarts is capable of using his swords to perform different Magical attacks. This is usually done in combination with specific armors of his, which can make him deadlier in close melee combat or, when combined with his Telekinesis, allow her to target opponents which are out of his physical range.

Telekinesis (テレキネシス Terekineshisu): Gildarts is also a skilled user of Telekinesis. He most common use of Telekinesis comes with his Sword Magic, in which he can perform different attacks by controlling his swords remotely.

History

Gildarts lost his mother, father, left arm, and left leg in an accident three years ago. He is considered a ward of the state but constantly runs away. They really can't keep him anywhere he does not want to be and he doesn't want to be in a house with people who are not his mom and dad. He takes jobs to earn money so he can support himself. Most of the time these jobs are just odd jobs here and there.
