Background:Garland was born to a very prominent Evil family, but he never really had the heart of true villainy in him. His parents' high expectations for him were met with more and more disappointment as he grew and continued failing to do anything really spectacularly evil. Not cut out for a really prestigious Evil University, Garland got a diploma from Barry's Correspondence School of Arch-Villainy, moved out, and got himself a nice lair in the Temple of Fiends, not far from Corneria

Using a series of cunning (read: boneheaded) traps, Sara effortlessly got all four of the Light Warriors trapped in the Guest Dungeon. Garland, good host that he was, introduced himself politely to the Warriors, offering to go get them their choice of refreshments from his kitchen. As he took their orders and left, the Light Warriors somehow managed to interpret his hospitality as a sign of his overpowering confidence in the difference in power between them. While he was off fetching their snacks, they came up with an elaborate plan to ambush him upon his return, which failed so spectacularly that he didn't even notice it happening.
Rapidly losing patience with her captor/apprentice's incompetence, she gave him a pre-prepared evil speech ("I, Garland, Destroyer of Souls, will be as an endless plague upon your lands") and send him back to the dungeon to greet his guests properly. Unfortunately for him, the FOREST IMPS were now on the prowl in the castle. While Garland wasn't looking, they switched out his prepared speech for a fake

Garland took this last defeat as a sign that he needed to confront the source of his constant bungles and trauma. So, he went to see a therapist. After a few sessions, the therapist had made one great breakthrough for Garland: He had gotten him to believe that there was no such thing as forest imps. Surprisingly, this was enough to get him actually motivated to take action again, and he instigated his new "Iron, yet Caring Fist" to conquer the world and rule over it brutally and courteously. The first step of this plan was the same as always: Get rid of the Light Warriors. Furthermore, he found the fourth member of the Dark Warriors: The LARPing vampire Vilbert

Garland got another letter from King Steve, this time hiring the Dark Warriors as his personal accountants. Some time passed as they worked as accountaints under Princess Sara, before the Dark Warriors held yet another meeting to discuss the incredibly small amount of revenge that had actually been exacted on the Light warriors. This time, Drizz'l instated himself as the unofficial new leader of the Dark Warriors. Informing Sara of their resignation (although she had already fired them ages ago), he marched the group back to the Temple of Fiends. However, the Temple of Fiends wasn't at all the same as they had left it. It was larger, grander, and more sinister. Garland was quite perturbed by this, but Drizz'l dismissed it as the true nature of the building, and besides, he had bigger fish to fry - the Light Warriors were coming

Personality: Garland tries, he really tries to be Evil, but it's just not in him. He was brought up in an evil family, and thus had the idea that he had to grow up to be a good villain hammered into his mind, but he didn't retain much of what being a villain actually entails.
Garland is very friendly and polite, placing a great deal of importance on being a good host, even going as far as to serve food and drinks to people who he's trying to kill. He's almost a good person at heart - sure, he'll do evil things, like fighting the forces of Good and kidnapping princesses, but he doesn't see that as any particular reason to be cruel about it
( ... )
Deposited Possessions: N/A, really. All he seems to own is the Temple of Fiends, which isn't portable; his armor, and a bunch of snacks.
Sample Entry: This is terrible! Not only have some kind of unimaginable forces of evil pulled me into a terrible hellscape, but they didn't even have the forethought to greet my properly!
And what's with this castle? The feng shui in these rooms is all wrong! I mean, sure, a decent decorator could turn this place around, but right now? Tacky.
Well, I'm not going to stand for this injustice! I've already begun my cruel, sinister revenge against our mysterious master. Just a minute ago, I found 50HL on the ground... and I'm going to keep it without asking who it belonged to. That's right, I've hardly been here an hour and I'm already resorting to petty theft!
