Garrett

"If we live through this, I'll follow you anywhere, woman."

Garrett was an adventurer and one of the nomadic vampires of America. He joined the Denali Coven in Breaking Dawn after their confrontation with the Volturi.

Breaking Dawn
He was called to become a witness for the Cullen family when they were faced with the Volturi. It is implied that he was created around the time of the American Revolutionary War; he alluded to fighting as an American Patriot. Garrett did not have any additional talents, although he enjoyed challenges. He was intrigued by the Cullens and the Denali coven's lifestyle of drinking animal blood instead of human blood. He later told Aro that he believed abstaining from human blood can be a powerful aid to the ability of bonding between vampires. While being a witness, he learned about this lifestyle through Kate, from the Denali coven. The two bonded quickly and it was Garrett who bore Kate's ability when he successfully stopped her from attacking the Volturi (which would likely have resulted in her death). Eventually, when the Volturi fled, he left with the Denali coven and became Kate's mate.

Physical appearance
Garrett was described as a tall, rangy vampire with eager ruby eyes and long sandy hair tied back in a ponytail. Garrett, like all vampires, when in sunlight, sparkles as if thousands of diamonds were embedded to his skin. To Kate he is described as a very beautiful person (Better looking as a normal vampire).

Personality and traits
He is described by Bella as a surprisingly good teacher, and interacts easily with others in general. Garrett is apparently very adventurous and probably very curious, evident in the fact that he accepted Kate's challenge to experience her ability. Also, he compares the Cullens fighting the Volturi to America and England during the Revolutionary War.

Etymology
Diminutive of the name Gerald. From the Germanic "rule of the spear." ger - spear and wald - rule.
