Raised from humble beginnings, Gazef earned his place through relentless training, courage, and a deep sense of duty. He stood as the Kingdom's greatest protector, a man whose presence on the battlefield inspired both fear in his enemies and hope in his allies.

Despite knowing the overwhelming odds, Gazef always confronted his enemies head-on.

Class Skills:
-Magic Resistance (C): Gazef Stronoff's Magic Resistance skill is rooted in his experience as a warrior operating in a world rife with powerful magic-users. At this rank, Gazef can reduce the effectiveness of most low- to mid-tier magical attacks, preventing them from inflicting full damage or debilitating effects. His exposure to magic, particularly through battles against sorcerers and magic-enhanced foes, has honed his instincts. He can often sense the subtle buildup of prana or magical energy, allowing him to dodge or brace against attacks in advance. However, his resistance is not perfect; high-tier spells or rituals that transcend basic incantations still affect him. Nonetheless, his mental fortitude ensures that even if his body succumbs to an enchantment or hex, his willpower helps him keep fighting for as long as possible. Gazef's resistance to mind-altering effects is particularly notable—he is not easily swayed by illusions or charm spells, reflecting his hardened spirit.

-Riding (C): While Gazef was known primarily for his swordsmanship, his skill as a cavalry leader ensures a moderate level of proficiency in Riding. As a commander of the Re-Estize Kingdom's military forces, Gazef learned to handle horses effectively both on and off the battlefield. This skill reflects his ability to control standard mounts during combat, maneuvering with precision and speed through enemy lines. However, Gazef's Riding ability does not extend to mythical creatures or high-speed vehicles, as his focus has always been grounded in practical military operations. He can also command multiple mounted troops, coordinating movements across complex terrain. His riding technique emphasizes endurance, allowing him to conserve his strength during long battles while still maintaining control over his mount. Although not a prodigious rider by any means, Gazef's tactical knowledge ensures that he uses mounts to their full potential in combat situations.

Personal Skills:
-Indomitable Will (C): Gazef's indomitable willpower is a defining trait that resonates throughout his life. This skill represents his refusal to back down, even when confronted with overwhelming odds. It allows Gazef to resist mental manipulation, charm, fear, and despair effects that would break the spirit of lesser men. His sheer determination is such that even if his body is pushed to the brink of exhaustion, his mind remains sharp, and he continues to fight. This was most evident in his final battle against Ainz Ooal Gown, where Gazef stood his ground despite knowing death was certain. As a Servant, this willpower not only protects him from external interference but also inspires those around him, raising their morale and allowing them to fight beyond their usual limits. However, this unyielding mindset can sometimes lead him to make reckless decisions, as Gazef would rather face death head-on than retreat or compromise his honor.

-Sword Mastery (A): Gazef is regarded as one of the most skilled swordsmen in the history of the Re-Estize Kingdom. His expertise extends beyond mere technique—he is capable of reading the flow of combat and anticipating enemy movements with near-supernatural precision. This skill reflects his complete mastery over the sword, allowing him to execute flawless attacks that combine power, speed, and finesse. Gazef's strikes are not only lethal but also adaptive; he can switch from offense to defense seamlessly, exploiting even the slightest openings in his opponent's guard. His ability to wield a variety of swords and bladed weapons with equal proficiency makes him a versatile fighter in both duels and large-scale battles. In combat, Gazef's swordsmanship is enhanced by his instincts, which allow him to predict and counter his enemy's next move before it is fully executed. His mastery also enables him to perform devastating techniques that can slice through armor and magical barriers, making him a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

-Leadership (D): As the captain of the Kingdom's warrior corps, Gazef demonstrated exceptional leadership qualities both on and off the battlefield. His ability to inspire loyalty and unity among his soldiers was unmatched, and his men followed him without hesitation. This skill reflects his talent for raising the morale of his allies, granting them bonuses to their combat performance when they fight alongside him. Even under extreme pressure, Gazef remains composed, issuing clear and concise commands that adapt to the changing tides of battle. His leadership is not only tactical but also emotional—his presence instills a sense of confidence and courage in those under his command. However, Gazef's loyalty to his comrades sometimes borders on recklessness, as he prioritizes their safety over his own. This can lead him into dangerous situations where he risks his life to protect others, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to his role as a leader.

-Martial Valor (B+): Martial Valor represents Gazef's ability to push his body beyond its normal limits during battle, allowing him to tap into reserves of strength and speed that exceed human capabilities. In the heat of combat, his adrenaline surges, enhancing his reflexes and sharpening his focus. This skill grants Gazef temporary boosts to his physical parameters, making him faster, stronger, and more resilient than usual. His Martial Valor becomes most apparent during prolonged fights, where Gazef seems to grow stronger with each passing moment, feeding off the intensity of the conflict. His strikes become more precise, his movements more fluid, and his stamina seemingly endless. However, this skill comes with a drawback—while Gazef can push through pain and fatigue, the toll on his body becomes evident once the battle ends. His Martial Valor also reflects his fighting spirit; the more dangerous the situation, the harder he fights. This relentless drive makes Gazef a dangerous opponent, as he refuses to yield until victory is achieved or his body can no longer move.

Noble Phantasm:

-Ability: The King's Sword embodies Gazef's unbreakable spirit and the pride he takes in his duty as a protector. It manifests as a radiant, ethereal sword that amplifies Gazef's physical abilities to their peak, granting him immense strength and speed. When activated, the sword cuts through magical defenses and enchantments, reflecting Gazef's defiance against magic-users. Every swing of the blade carries a fragment of his will, inflicting not just physical damage but also diminishing the resolve of his enemies. Gazef's swordsmanship is enhanced to a supernatural level while wielding this Noble Phantasm, allowing him to perform complex techniques with ease.
The King's Sword also creates an aura of camaraderie around Gazef, boosting the abilities of his allies when they fight by his side. This aura mitigates incoming damage, enhancing their endurance and granting temporary immunity to fear effects. Gazef's allies feel emboldened by his presence, fighting with renewed vigor even in the face of overwhelming odds. However, the true strength of the King's Sword lies in its ability to reflect Gazef's resolve. As long as he wields it, Gazef remains impervious to mind control, fear, or despair, allowing him to continue fighting regardless of injuries or exhaustion. This Noble Phantasm encapsulates Gazef's lifelong dedication to his comrades and his belief in the power of unity, making him not just a formidable warrior but also a beacon of hope to those around him.
