Character from Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
A Revolutionary War veteran turned adventurous nomad vampire — Garrett came to witness the Volturi confrontation, fell for Kate Denali, and stayed to challenge tyranny one more time.
Garrett was turned during the American Revolution and has spent the centuries since as a nomadic adventurer, drawn to causes, conflicts, and interesting people. He came to Forks as a witness when the Cullens called for allies against the Volturi, but what was supposed to be observation became something more when he met Kate Denali. Their connection was instant and electric — literally, given Kate's gift. Garrett gave an impassioned speech to the gathered witnesses about the Volturi's tyranny, channeling two centuries of revolutionary spirit. After the confrontation, he joined the Denali coven for Kate, trading his nomadic lifestyle and human-blood diet for love. He is charming, brave, idealistic, and the kind of person who runs toward danger because he finds it interesting.
Tall and rangy with a rugged, outdoorsman look. Crimson eyes transitioning to gold as he adopts the vegetarian diet for Kate. Dark hair tied back. Lean and wiry. Dresses practically — worn leather, boots. Has the easy, confident bearing of someone who has been alive long enough to be afraid of very little.
Also known as: Garrett, the patriot
