Garridan

Garridan puts the "gentle" in gentleman. He does not look like one in the slightest, but when given the chance to be acquainted with someone, he is polite and modest in manner. He is used to talking when spoken to, so anything past small talk will lead him to saying some rather silly things. He bears an active imagination that is complex in various worlds and storylines, where he imagines himself as the main character. It can make him sound like a goofball once he gets into a conversation. Quirks aside, Garridan holds gratitude to people that take time out of their day to accompany him. He feels it'd be an inconvenience of their time if he was the one who proposed an invite. He appreciates company that does come by as Garridan treats his guests like royalty. Only the softest of slippers will blanket their feet once they step inside. His delight for guests leave him feel so jolly that he sometimes has to stop himself from leaving little to no room for others to have a turn to talk. He has reocurring tendancies to overshare his interests in great detail to the point of obsession. It's embarrassing once he realizes that, but he'll gladly listen to the stories and experiences of others. It puts his imagination in play, as if having the opportunity to pretend he's lived a life he never had before.

His unusual mannerisms are a result of chronic isolation and his difficulty making friends. He indulges heavily into fictional worlds that will leave him daydreaming for hours on end. He forgets to eat sometimes because of it. Garridan keeps to himself the ideals of his perfect life by taking inspiration off of shows and stories he likes to create and have control over without boundaries. He copes with loneliness this way, but doesn't tell people about his daydreams out of fear of being labeled as crazy or abnormal. Garridan feels it's for the best to keep it that way at the cost of his malnourishing social skills. In spite of the anxiety, it doesn't sway him for having a heart to take care of others. If he can get past comparing his abilities to others he deems more worthy, Garridan is moved to help people he finds in distraught. It's a risk he's willing to put his life on the line for in order to heal and comfort another.
