Gerik: Desert Tiger

At the castle

Didn't plan on being a mercenary, but a friend of mine said he wanted to be the greatest warrior in all the land... I figured I was already better than him, so...why not keep it that way?

Level 40 quote

When I was younger, before I'd ever lost a duel, I thought I was invincible. But I was set straight before long. Then I fought this knight from...some country or another. After we crossed swords, this scar was my reward. I'd never endured such a crushing defeat, and it shook me to my core. My first encounter with true fear. I realized then that I hadn't come as far as I had on my own. There were others who helped me along the way. So ever since, I've dedicated myself to fighting for others, not just myself. And, uh...here we are. As long as there's work and pay, I'll support and protect you. I swear it on my honor as a mercenary.
— After reaching level 40 at five-star Rarity.
