Gadjah

Gaja (ガジャ) is a Spirit Guardian of the Heart Kingdom.

Appearance
Gaja is a tall, muscular man with spiky, dark-colored hair. He has a large scar running from his left cheek down his neck.

Gaja wears a sleeveless, light-colored robe with a deep v-cut neck and a dark-colored center section on the front. The robe has slits for both legs. His wide belt has a series of medallions along it, and he carries his grimoire by sliding it under the belt. Under this, he wears a pair of light-colored pants that are cropped at mid-calf. His dark-colored, knee-high boots leave the tops of his toes uncovered. He also wears several pieces of jewelry: a pair of teardrop-shaped earrings that each have three pieces dangling from the bottoms, a pair of large anklets over his boots, a pair of bracelets over a dark-colored arm bands that cover most of his forearms, and a wide necklace that extends up under his chin and down over some of his chest.

Personality
Gaja is dedicated to his duty and the Heart Kingdom and is willing to act duplicitously in order to serve his country. He acts as a kind escort for the visiting Magic Knights, giving Mimosa compliments and offering them drinks, but directs them into a trap for Asta and then blocks them from pursuing their captured comrade.

Biography
Gaja meets Kirsch and Mimosa Vermillion when they visit the Heart Kingdom as exchange students.

Three years later, Gaja serves as the escort for Asta, Mimosa, Noelle Silva, and Finral Roulacase when they enter the kingdom. He offers them drinks and briefly explains the kingdom's history and the princesses' magic. After Asta is kidnapped, the other Magic Knights pursue him. Finral warps the girls and himself through the air, but Gaja manages to catch up to them. Noelle blocks Gaja from attacking Finral and then prepares to fight Gaja, who accepts her challenge. Gaja fires a lightning bolt from his hand and commands it to follow Noelle when she tries to dodge. Before it can hit Noelle, Finral warps it away and Mimosa fires her Magic Cannon Flower, which misses Gaja. He then creates a magic circle in the sky and summons a large storm cloud. He unleashes a large lightning strike, but the three escape with Spatial Magic. Suddenly, a portal opens behind Gaja, and Noelle hits him with a Sea Dragon's Roar. Gaja manages to deflect the spell with a defensive magic circle on his body. He senses their location and quickly flies over to them, catching them by surprise. Instead of attacking, Gaja kneels and apologizes, admitting that it was to test their magical skills.
