“Gwa ha ha! Get to it, lads! Grab anything shiny, and put the rest to the torch!”
—Garrick's quote in the Prologue

Garrick is a boss character in Fire Emblem Awakening and an enemy Mirage in Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE. He is the leader of a group of bandits called the Plegian Bandits. He is a violent and cruel man.

Profile[]

Fire Emblem Awakening[]

Garrick leads a small group of Plegian Bandits to destroy and raid Southtown. He is a part of Plegia's plan to instigate a war between them and Ylisse. However, the Shepherds arrive and defeat the bandits.

He shares his portrait with Roddick, Nombry, and Zanth.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE[]

Garrick appears as an enemy Mirage at the beginning of the game, where he possesses Teru Gojyuin's body. He is the game's first boss, appearing before Itsuki Aoi just after he becomes a Mirage Master. He is wild and destructive, and proud of his immense power. He wields a giant axe-like weapon. Garrick is redesigned as a four eyed animated suit of armor wearing a cape. Teru's head, discolored by his possession, protrudes from the top of Garrick's helmet.

Garrick later appears in Illusory Dolhr, revived by the Shadow Dragon, but in the second encounter is not in possession of Teru.

Garrick is trivial on Normal Mode, but on higher difficulties, he possesses Gamble. This gives him a chance of landing critical blows, and on Lunatic Mode and above such a hit will be surely fatal to Robin or Chrom. This is exceedingly painful on Lunatic and Lunatic+ Mode, where getting good level ups for Robin is almost necessary, and where defeat could force the player to start the arduous process of hunting for good level-ups all over.

Garrick's critical chance can be nullified if players recall that units gain Critical Evasion if flanked by enough supporting units. Pair Chrom with Robin, then place Lissa and Frederick (separated from one another) just outside of Garrick's attacking range, and place Robin between them. If done correctly, Garrick should have a 0 critical chance on Robin. From there, the player can slowly but surely whittle him down to 0 HP, making sure to heal Robin if and when the need arises.

Etymology[]

The name Garrick comes from a surname which was originally derived from a given name meaning "spear power" from Germanic ger (spear) and ric (power).

Trivia[]

  • The first time Garrick made his appearance, in a US Nintendo Direct, his name was 'Grendel'. This was changed, as the European Nintendo direct that aired fairly soon afterwards had his name shown as 'Garrick'. The official US website for the game never had Grendel at all. It is most likely that the name was changed very late in the making of the promotional material. Exactly why is not known.
  • Although Garrick himself does not participate in the "Choose Your Legends" poll for Fire Emblem Heroes, his Mirage counterpart does via his Mirage Master Teru Gojuin. He shares this trait with Pheros.
