==Appearance==
Garterbelt is a black man with an oversized afro and red eyes. He wears a light blue cassock with two red upside down Christian crosses. When undressed, he has X shaped scars on his body and a big yellow one on his chest. He also wears a garter belt hence his name.
==Personality==
Garterbelt is constantly annoyed by Panty and Stocking’s chaotic and carefree behavior which often frustrates him to the point of screaming. He is assigned tasks through Chuck in the form of small notes that he must deliver to Panty and Stocking so that they can complete their mission to collect enough Heaven Coins and go back to Heaven. Garterbelt is seen to be a rather stoic and serious individual, however, he believes that BDSM is spiritually sacred and should be treated seriously. He even judges himself using bondage as a form of self control and desires for stern judgement due to his past. As a result, he is highly critical of Corset’s rendition of BDSM, claiming it lacks self control. On the other hand, he is also seen to be flirtatious and is highly attracted to young men, Brief is usually the target of his unwanted and intrusive advances. He is also seen to go by a disguise called 'Master G', when he is engaging in risky activities.
==Biography==
Garterbelt is no stranger to a checkered past. In the episode Once Upon a Time in Garterbelt, it is revealed that Garterbelt was formerly a gangster, whose crimes know no bounds. He even went on to become a crime lord in his own town, rising through the ranks before he was gunned down in his own office. His crimes ironically sent him straight to Heaven, where an as-of-yet undisclosed mission was handed to him by the higher power Judgement. However, Garterbelt refused to accept this mission, which led to him being cursed with immortality and thrown back to the start of time, the creation of the world. He was forced to bear witness and take part in the world's ancient and biblical events. Then, many more wars and cultural events followed, including wars and battles as a part of different cultures. It was only after a long and tortuous journey that Garterbelt realized that his suffering would bring true happiness. Thus, his immortality was retained and he became a priest of sorts, tasked with supervising two angels, Panty and Stocking. Even now, centuries later, the mission given to Garterbelt by Judgement remains undisclosed, never having been fulfilled till date.
==Trivia==
*Garterbelt's design seem to be inspired by Lordgenome from Gurren Lagann. Such similarities include his dark skin complexion, circular chest hair, red-spiraled eyes, immortality, and imposing demeanor.
