Garrick (Japanese: ゲリバ Geriba) is a boss appearing in Fire Emblem Awakening and Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE.
In Awakening he is a Plegian troop captain tasked with leading a small contingent of Plegian soldiers on an assault on Southtown, a Ylissean city, as part of a bid to provoke Ylisse into war with Plegia.
In Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE he is a rogue Mirage appearing as the first boss of the game. Like in Awakening, Chrom helps defeat him.
Fire Emblem Awakening
Role
Garrick serves as the boss of Awakening's prologue, though he isn't the first boss of the entire game; he is fought after Validar in the Premonition.
Garrick is a member of the Plegian military sent by Gangrel, under the guise of a common bandit, to sow chaos in Ylisse; this is a common occurrence in recent times.[1] Garrick and his underlings set Southtown aflame; alerting Chrom and the Shepherds to his presence.
Garrick ends up soundly defeated by Chrom's forces.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE
Role
Garrick is the first boss of Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE. He is the Mirage that is possessing Teru Gojuin, though this is only revealed later in the game when he is fought again during Chapter 6: Fire Emblem after being revived by Medeus. In both instances he is defeated by Itsuki with the aid of Chrom.

Trivia
- In the first publicly revealed footage of the US English version of Awakening, as shown on the October 25th 2012 Nintendo Direct, Garrick was instead named Grendel, a reference to a monster in Norse mythology.[2] However, footage shown in the European Nintendo Direct from approximately the same time called him Garrick, as does all subsequent US English footage and, of course, the completed game.
- Like most Awakening bosses, Garrick shares his portrait with no alterations with several other bosses: Roddick, Nombry and Zanth.
