Garroth

Biography
Garroth is one of the main characters (and one of the most loved) of Minecraft Diaries: The Rise of Phoenix Drop and Season 1. He is the Head Guard of Phoenix Drop along with Laurence and Dante to support him. Also, he became a member of the Jury of Nine in Ep. 100. You see him doing his job of protecting others and is a very caring person. Even though Aphmau is oblivious to his feelings, he has an obvious crush on her that even sometimes Laurence teases him, but does not have the courage to tell her that he likes her but Aphmau never realizes it that he likes her.

His past was not a kind one. He was the firstborn son of the Lord of O'Khasis (Garte), and to stop a war, they were trying to force him to marry the daughter of Scaleswind, Nicole. He faked his death and fled, so did Nicole. Garroth now lives in Phoenix Drop, hidden, but is soon killed but was brought back to life out by his brother, Zane, who was the High Priest at the time. He is still at Phoenix Drop because O'khasis has given up temporarily due to sexy barmaid an incident, that incident being that the lord of Scaleswind thought he saw his daughter stabbed, and pushed into a river by an O'Khasis gaurd. Having a very hot temper, he declared war on O'Khasis, then allied with them after Zane minipualted him to target Phenoix Drop.

He also treats Laurence and Dante as brothers.

In the last few episodes of Season 1, Garroth was corrupted by thoughts of Laurence taking Aphmau away from him. He was consoled by "Lillian", a follower and spy of Zane. With "Lillian" as his influence, he switched sides to bring the amulet to his brother after stealing it from Laurence. Zane used it to go to Irene's Dimension, bringing Aphmau and her party with him. Garroth fights Laurence, but eventually Laurence convinces Garroth that he must accept the fact thsophiay not return his love. After a while, Zoey appears with the portal and Aphmau is ready to make her escape with the others. Garroth proceeds to fight Zane to sacrifice his life for the safety of the village. Before she leaves Garroth tells her he loves her and then Aphmau sadly leaves him. Garroth is left to fight Zane. The portal that brought the group back closed, and Garroth is stuck in Irene's Dimension with Zane. The portal can only be opened with a mortal sacrifice, or someone giving up their immortality to open it. (Like Zoey giving up hers)

Garroth is Zane's older brother but Zane tries to turn Garroth into a loyal guard and member of the Jury of Nine. Zane's plan succeeded in the majority: getting the amulet, Garroth turning evil, Garroth becoming a loyal member of the Jury of Nine, and taking away Katelyn's Jury title. Zane was betrayed by Garroth in the end, because Laurence talked him into snapping back into reality, saying things like, ''"Are you even listening to yourself?" ''Garroth is currently stuck in Irene's Dimension with Zane.

In the episode "Dream or Reality?", when Aphmau is close to the large tree, he suddenly appears saying "Lord Aphmau!  I-I thought you were Zane..." He then kisses her and explains his feelings towards her, and how he saw her and Laurance kissing in the woods, which made him jealous.

Big Misunderstanding
Garroth and Laurence think there is something between Aphmau and Aaron, but he is just helping them move. This causes Garroth and Laurence to do some crazy antics to find out where Aphmau is moving to and whether or not there is something between Aphmau and Aaron. In episode 4, they get Dante to give them an outside opinion. However, Dante actually encouraged their actions and told them to make Aphmau jealous by fighting over another girl (Michi). The two proceeded to interupt Aphmau's movie "date" with Aaron, until Aaron puts his arm around her to make them mad. As a result, Garroth goes into his Jury of Nine form, and Laurance goes into his Shadow Knight form, but were overrun by Aaron's fangirl army.

Appearance
Garroth has bleach blonde hair and sky/cyan blue eyes that twinkle and sparkle, and tan skin that radiates like the sun.In his first appearance, he wears a chainmail set with a grey helm, and a white section with a large black cross.

In season 1 of Minecraft Diaries towards the finale he received brown chainmail armor with a blue cape which he designed himself in the past which was given as a gift from Katelyn. In season 2 he is seen wearing the same set of armor.

When he takes his Jury of Nine form he grows in size and gets a full set of iron armor. There is a blue feather coming out from the top of his helm, and in the center of his armor is the same black cross on Zane's. He snaps out of his trance, but the armour is the same, except his face is a bit more faded, and he also emits some/a blue particles/aura.

In Minecraft Side Stories, Garroth wears a white undershirt, a blue plaid jacket, and blue jeans.In conclusion he's a good looking guy a.k.a hottie cutie pie that has amazing looks.

Relationships
Aphmau - Love interest / Crush / Lord (formerly)

Laurance - Laurance and Garroth are blood brothers whereby they swear loyalty to each other.

Garte - Garroth used to respect and look up to Garte as his father. However due to his father becoming corrupt over the years, Garroth and his father grew apart. Eventually Garroth ran away due to his father having arranged a marriage between him and, the daughter of the lord of Scaleswind, Nicole.

Zane - is Garroth's younger brother. Zane and Garroth are not close as they are both on different sides (Zane on the side of their father while Garroth is not) There is also a difference in their personality while growing up hence they were not close brothers.

Vylad - Possible brother. The only evidence we have to back this up is in the Side Story "Trick or Treating Misadventures Ep.1" Garroth, as a kid, asks if his two brothers Zane and Vyald are there.

Nicole - Ex-fiance (Were in a forced marriage)

Dante - Dante and Garroth are also blood brothers. They are very close friends.

Personality
Garroth is very kind-hearted, but is also very shy. He can become embarrassed very easily if you know how to manipulate the conversation the right way, and when you make fun of him when you say "you like Aphmau." When this happens he will often use the excuse that he has to feed a non-existent cat and runs off. If you feel like annoying him this is the perfect way to do so. He is very brave and selfless at the fact he risked his life for many others. For example, in Episode 100 of Season One, Garroth stopped Zane, so that Aphmau, The Stranger (Aaron), Laurence, Katelyn, Kenmur and Emmalyn could run off through the mysterious portal made by Zoey, who had aged 15 years, when at the time, he wasn't even on their side. But his shy attitude makes him so attractive! But now he is becoming more comfortable with Aphmau (as we see when he is talking to Aphmau in the "Dream Dimension)

In the sidestories, he and the sassy Dante keep getting in a heated argument, which always resulted in a fight (while Laurance feels like he's the mother of the two), sometimes because Garroth likes to tease Dante about Nicole.

In the sidestories Garroth will use a fish and throw it at people so the cats will "attack them". An example of this is the episode "The Big Misunderstanding" When Garroth and Laurence throw a fish at Aaron when they think Aphmau and Aaron are dating.

Trivia

Shipping
There is a popular fan-ship called Garmau in which fans want Aphmau to end up with Garroth. The ship is at a stand still because Garroth is currently stuck in Irene's Dimension battling Zane but in Season 2 Episode 9, Dream or Reality?, in which they kissed, causing more people to be in love with Garmau. The second time Aphmau visited Garroth you can see him flirting and being more comfortable with her which causes more people to start loving Garmau.

Gaurence also became known when Garroth had Laurence pinned against the wall (in side stories) and started "flirting" with him. Also Laurence joked about if Garroth saw him that he would kiss him too.
