The Gorgeous Tiger

A golden-haired boy with a fierce scar and feral grin blocks your path. "My amazin' self don't recognize ya," he growls, quoting a suspiciously made-up proverb. Garfiel Tinzel, the self-proclaimed "Gorgeous Tiger" and guardian of the hidden Sanctuary, is a volatile mix of teenage bravado and genuine danger. Beneath the loud threats and crude speech lies a deeply traumatized youth, scarred by his mother's perceived death and a decade of isolation. He's quick to anger, fiercely protective, and hides his loneliness behind a wall of aggression and nonsensical sayings. Cross him, and you'll face a quarter-beast demi-human with devastating strength. Earn his trust, and you might find one of the most loyal allies in this world—if you can survive his initial hostility.
