Svenkin Gatard

"My body is the ultimate spear and the ultimate shield!!"

Svenkin Gatard (スヴェンキン・ガタード) is a Dark Disciple of Vanica Zogratis, one of the Spade Kingdom's Dark Triad.

Appearance
Svenkin is a tall, muscular man with curly, brown hair and a rugged beard.

Svenkin wears a long-sleeved, black shirt under a brown vest with a raised collar which was torn and shredded. He also wears a pair of brown pants that tuck into black boots. His black belt has a series of diamond shapes and large, rectangular buckle. His grimoire black pouch hangs off the back of his belt.

When using some of a devil's power, Svenkin sprouts a pair of small horns from the top of his head and small, bat-like wings from his back.

Personality
Despite his burly appearance, Svenkin has a rather flamboyant personality. He frequently laughs with an effeminate "tee hee hee" (ウフフフ) and occasionally ends his sentences with hearts. He is also incredibly vain, believing himself to be impervious to damage and talking down to those whom he considers weaker than himself.

Biography
After the Dark Triad takes over the Spade Kingdom, Svenkin accepts power from them and becomes a Dark Disciple of Vanica Zogratis.

Vanica and her five Dark Disciples, including Svenkin, are sent to the Heart Kingdom to defeat Princess Lolopechka and the other mages there. The group infiltrates the kingdom and then splits apart, with each member attacking a separate location.

Svenkin defeats Smurik, one of the Spirit Guardians. He then attacks some citizens running away, but Luck Voltia saves them. The Magic Knight tries attacking Svenkin, but the Dark Disciple's Skin Magic absorbs Luck's punches and kicks and blocks his Thunderclap Crumbling Orbs. After punching Luck away, Svenkin tells him to run away, which Luck refuses to do. Luck blitzes Svenkin again and kicks at the Disciple's head. The boot sinks into Svenkin's softened skin and gets stuck. Svenkin swings his fist at Luck, who dodges by jumping out of the boot. Svenkin then shapes his skin into cannons and knocks Luck around with blasts of mana. Luck continues to blitz Svenkin, forcing himself to move faster and faster, and manages to attack faster than Svenkin's magic can react. Svenkin decides to completely harden his skin, but Luck uses several layered arrays to propel himself forward, piercing through Svenkin's defense.

Svenkin stands back up and praises Vanica as her curse on him heals the wound. Luck is eager to restart the fight. Svenkin's devil power is detonated after Vanica decides to kidnap Lolopechka and leave the Heart Kingdom. His body swells due to the building magic power before he becomes a massive explosion.
