Description

"God's avatar and controller of Sand."

Main Info

• Name: Gaian
• Age: Unknown
• Hobbies: Playing musical instruments
• Likes: Living comfortably
• Dislikes: Weaklings

The God who created Kricktria had returned to find the world enveloped by ancient malignant spirits. He expunged the spirits from the world and then created avatars of himself to help stabilize the dimension.

Though these avatars were not gods nor humans, they each had their own will along with individual abilities and personalities. Once the world had been deemed safe, the god left for a different world. Over time, the avatars lost their power and went into resting.

And bit by bit, the existence of the avatars disappeared from the people's memories.

As one of the god's avatars, Gaian was created to repel the malignant spirits in the desert. He was created with the ability to use the Sand to protect the desert from evil influences.

During his human years, Osiris' research leads him to figure out that a human could wield the avatar's powers. With the use of Gaian's powers, Osiris was able to unify the imps and forge a kingdom.

Trivia

A silhouetted character in Act 4.3: Everlasting Love.

• Gaian is the only character among Tier S Heroes that has a Tier SR counterpart.
• Gaian's character portrait is based on his final stage evolution, Sandstorm.
  • In Act 4.3: Everlasting Love appears a shadowy figure, which was likely Gaian, alongside Poseidon, Zephyr Wings Nephilim, and Flame Destroyer Balzac from one of its cutscenes. However, the design does not resemble any of his forms in the game.
    • There is also a possibility that the shadowed person instead represents the God of Kricktria himself.
• Gaian's holy beast of sand, Anubis, is based on the eponymous Egyptian god.
  • However, his design seems to take inspiration from Shukaku instead, a character from the massively popular Japanese series, Naruto.
• Gaian's name originated from the ancient Greek word Gaia which means "land" or "earth".
  • A deity of Xenia, Lady Gaia, was also named after the eponymous Greek god.
• Gaian is the only avatar of God whose dark form was not included in the Dimensional Chasm mode of the game.
  • It is likely because Corrupted Gaian can already be fought as a boss in Dual Raid.
• Gaian is the only avatar of God that is not included in the Avatars of God collection in the game.
  • In Gaian's case, it is because he was yet to be released when Grand Chase Dimensional Chaser launched.
• Gaian refers to Buddha in one of his voiceovers, suggesting that the religious figure exists in the Grand Chase universe.
