Steadfast: A dutiful young boil, he is resolute and dedicated in all that he applies himself too. Adamant and persistent, Garyx does not easily change his stance on things.

He is brave and does not know the meaning of backing down. He is strong and proud and likes to show off. However, Garyx is often times reckless in the way he handles things. Charging in head first and thinking later, he is quick to take action. As he has such a tough hide, he feels like he can handle anything as it is.
Boisterous: Rowdy and energetic, Garyx often comes across as outspoken and impish. Clamorous, he isn't afraid to make demands and make his opinions known.

He comes across as fairly jolly and doesn't necessarily know the meaning of personal space. Garyx is fairly in your face and stormy in how he presents himself.

The only importance is whether or not he can accomplish what he needs to. However, he would never do something immoral to gain an advantage. He believes in playing fair and abides by stands and rules that are in place.
Being that he is rowdy and unafraid to speak his mind, he comes across as energetic and often times difficult to manage for those who prefer a more reserved or quiet conversation.
Impatience and mindlessness are his biggest enemies. Being inactive means he can not get everything on a given night completed. He tries to rush into things, and his efforts can be futile at times. Garyx doesn't seem to grasp the concept that sometimes things requires a delicate touch. His high spirits can unintentionally wreak havoc. Paying attention is key in avoiding hurting both himself and others around him. This is something Garyx is still learning to balance and understand.

Garyx seeks to gain strength and knowledge of the world around him. While Halloween has always been his home, he desires to one day scale the fabled heights of human world buildings. The tallest buildings will one day be his to roost and perch on. The only way to do that, of course, is to successfully make his way through the Academy.
Anything Else?
– His concept of what being a gargoyle comes in part from the classic animated Disney's 1994 Gargoyles (TV series), along with various other forms of the mythology surrounding the creatures.

Abilities
• Natural Ability:

His rock-like skin makes most physical forms of damage less troublesome to the gargoyle. As he is still young he has yet to master this ability, but he can regardless harden his own stone hide at will.
• FEAR Ability:
Y1 -Stone Wall:Utilizing his own Fear, Garyx forms a magical wall around ones body as a form of a defensive barrier.

He prides in the ability to be defensible and has found a way to make his Fear suit this desire. His Fear is cast as an additional layer of protection on both himself and his allies. It all depends on how he channels and ultimately focuses his Fear.
