Garro: Shield of Lies (James Swallow)


Recommended Posts

For a guy that was messed up badly istvaan iii (choral city) he's got a lot of life and vitality.

 

If only Patrick Stewart voiced him

Garro was separated from his leg on Isstvan Extremis.  He did not make it down to Isstvan III, instead taking command of the Eisenstein.

Quite like the Garro series (apart from the Loken resurrection but even that I'm mostly willing to move on from after this amount of time). Looking forward to this. Name is a nice counterpart to "The Sword of Truth".

 

INB4 Garro is Janus.

 

Genuine lol, and not because it's ADB.

I just spent awhile looking through posts in order to find this quote from AD-B concerning Garro and his role, or lack thereof, in the founding of the Grey Knights:

 

'Jim Swallow has gone on record a few times saying that the Knights Errant aren't the Grey Knights. That's obvious in a way, as the Knights Errant are clearly not Grey Knights, but there's an easy comparison in saying they're a proto-form of the organisation, and there's nothing to say that one or more Knight Errants won't go on to be instrumental in the Grey Knights' foundation. There's not much to say they will, either, though DEV started this thread with what looks like some rare evidence surfacing.

 

(Grey Knights are psychic, though. Garro's not. That's worth considering.)'

 

This, to me, answers the question of whether or not Garro could be Janus. I think not. I like the idea that Sevatar is Janus...

Personally I like Sevatar as Khyron, and MAYBE Omegon as Janus.

 

To be fair I'm sure a lot of people thought Qruze was going to be a Grandmaster as well...

 

We've also been shown that there are quite a lot of Knights-Errant, way more than 8. It could be that they all keep falling in battle until there's only 8 left when Malcador decides to send Titan into the warp.

I think the Grandmasters will be drawn from the Knight-Errants, but only from the ranks of those that are psykers. And by psyker, I mean like Rubio where they have actually use and trained their powers. Not like Sevarian where he only uses his power instinctually to hide himself.
I hope the Knights Errant end up having no direct connection to the Grey Knights. Maybe they're a conceptual predecessor, but I'd like the GKs to be something different again. That said, I have no issue with Garro or one of the others becoming one of the first Lords of the Inquisition.

Or you know,also helping him become a close combat god.
