==History==
Born from the corpse of his hanging mother, Guts spent the majority of his life in a world of constant violence, never truly finding a place to call home. Throughout his childhood, he trained as a mercenary, and when he grew up, he was recruited into the Band of the Falcon. Befriending the founder, Griffith, and falling in love with his second-in-command, Casca, it was the first time he knew true camaraderie. But that all ended when an event called "The Eclipse" transported the entire Band of the Falcon to a hellish realm of darkness, where Griffith turned on his former comrades and became a demon lord, slaughtering each and every one of them into nothing but corpses. Guts and Casca were the only survivors, but Guts was left with an amputated arm and a gouged out eye, while a violated Casca was traumatized into a childlike mindset. Both were also branded to be tormented by demons and ghosts until their demise. Having later on formed his own band of misfits, Guts has since sworn revenge on Griffith and made it his mission to cure both Casca and himself, taking his sword in hand and struggling against his own inner beast.
