Description
Gowther, an artificial humanoid doll forged by the demon mage of the same name—a former Ten Commandments member under the Demon King—mirrors the appearance of his creator’s deceased lover, Glariza. Crafted male to deter emotional bonds, the doll acted as the original Gowther’s proxy during his imprisonment, enabling external interaction.
Initially embodying the Commandment of Selflessness, the doll wielded the memory-altering magic *Invasion*. In the Holy War three millennia past, the demon Gowther orchestrated a forbidden spell to rewrite universal memories, coercing peace by transforming the archangel Mael into the fabricated Demon Prince Estarossa. This ritual, executed with the doll’s aid, consumed the creator’s life, leaving the doll to flee the Demon Clan. Severed from the Commandment’s influence, he lost both memories and emotions.
Millennia later, the doll emerged in Liones, forming a profound bond with Princess Nadja. Her death from illness drove him to implant his artificial heart into her corpse—a desperate act misconstrued as desecration, framing him for her murder. To escape anguish, he erased his memories, discarded his heart, and adopted an emotionless facade, earning him the title Goat’s Sin of Lust for his obsessive quest to comprehend emotion.
Joining the Seven Deadly Sins, he donned Merlin’s enchanted armor to suppress lingering powers. His blunt speech and social ineptitude bred misunderstandings, yet he displayed loyalty through actions like shielding the orphan Pelliot. Curiosity about human sentiment spurred non-malicious experiments, such as brainwashing allies like Guila.
Reclaimed memories and restored emotions eventually merged his creator’s compassion with his lived experiences, fostering subtle affection and sharper social intuition while retaining analytical rigor. His capabilities grew to include illusion projection via the Sacred Treasure Herritt and subconscious manipulation. Merlin’s contingency—a self-destruct mechanism fueled by Escanor’s Sunshine and elemental energies—marked him as a tactical weapon in crises.
Pivotal moments spanned infiltrating Edinburgh’s vampire ranks, combating the Ten Commandments, and confronting his creator’s legacy in the New Holy War. His evolution bridged logic and empathy, defining a journey to grasp humanity’s emotional core.
