Good points there, still, i'm sure good old Garth may have a trick up his sleeve (what said tricks are you will have to wait for)......also....avoiding one would work well, Garths and explorer, not a warrior, so while he'll happily cause chaos (mostly due to blind curiosity) he will try and avoid a fight if he has an alternative (running, stunning target and then running ect).

Also that is a key point ya brougth up, that he isn't blessed, so he has to rely on wit, cunning and what he can make to see him through.
