History
Garuda was once a proud warrior and heroic guardian of his clan. All that changed however, when he encountered a demon who feeds off on the souls of powerful warriors on his village. Although Garuda managed to repel the demon via a self-sacrificing technique, he was eventually consumed by the evil energy and became an amalgation of the lingering grudges of powerful spirits, turning Garuda into a demon who feeds off on negative energy.

With a thirst for battle, Garuda wanders the land in search of stronger opponents to satiate his hunger for battle.
