Edith - Verdant knight
Character Background & Biography
Thousands of years ago, the Ancient Ones created Edith to serve as the Primal Warden on Sanctum Island, guarding the sealed Evil Gods trapped beneath the earth. For centuries, she existed solely as a cold, ageless construct of divine duty, piloting a massive mecha guard known as Phylax
Her immortal existence shattered during a violent earthquake that left her injured and stripped of her memories. She was found by a poor old man who survived by collecting metal scraps. He took her in, raised her as his own daughter, and for ten years, Edith lived as an ordinary, innocent village girl. Despite the passage of a decade, her divine nature prevented her from physically aging past late adolescence.
Her past violently caught up with her when she accompanied her aging, frail foster father into forbidden temple ruins to search for scrap metal. Uranus, the elemental giant guarding the ruins, awakened and prepared to destroy her father for trespassing. The danger triggered Edith’s sealed memories. However, instead of reverting to a cold, heartless warden, her ten years of human love won. She commanded Phylax and fought Uranus to protect her father.
When the Celestial Palace collapsed, the seals broke, scattering the Evil Gods across the Land of Dawn. Torn between her intense love for her senile father and her global responsibility, Edith chose to leave her village to hunt down the dark forces. She roams the world inside Phylax, a terrifying guardian to evil, but a deeply emotional daughter who secretly looks back toward her home island, weeping for the father she left behind
