Grunbeld

Grunbeld is a secondary antagonist in Berserk and a non-playable character in BERSERK and the Band of the Hawk.

Years before, it was said that Grunbeld defended against a Chuder invasion with 3,000 men. He was thought to have been killed in battle, but became the Dragon Apostle.

He soon confronts Guts just as he was attacking Flora's forest home. Grunbeld's hammer does seem to cause trouble for Guts at first, but golems help turn things around, forcing Grunbeld to use his Apostle form. Despite the gruesome injuries he sustained, Guts manages to escape alive.

Personality
Grunbeld is a prideful Apostle who admires his hammer and shield's built-in cannons. He desires to fight with honor, even if he resorts to last-resort tactics to do it.

Quotes

 * "I am being pushed back...?!"
 * "Thank you."
 * "This is how fights must be."
 * "To meet death in battle is every warrior's long-cherished aspiration!"

Fighting Style
Grunbeld usually relies on a slow but hard-hitting three hit combo with his hammer. He can also swing his shield two times with it's revealed blades. He can even raise his hammer slowly and slam it hard. He will also ready his shield before ramming it at enemies. In addition, Grunbeld can set his shield up before shooting a powerful explosive.

In his crystal-dragon-like Apostle form, Grunbeld can stomp his feet, ram his head forward, and blast fireballs around the vicinity.
