Escanor

is a member of the Seven Deadly Sins and is known as the Lion's Sin of Pride. He is renowned for gaining immense power during the day, and gradually becoming weaker with the setting of the sun, leaving him frail and submissive at night. His Sacred Treasure is the Divine Axe Rhitta. His inherent power is named Sunshine.

Appearance
Currently Escanor's appearance is largely the same as his appearance in Vampires of Edinburgh, with the addition of a mustache and pair of glasses. Escanor's attire is a suit commonly worn by bartenders and although slightly baggy, does appear to fit his non-sunshine form far better than his previous attire. He temporarily wore spectacles during his first formal appearance in the plot.

Ten years ago, he wore a suit of full body armor with a unique helm (which may be too large to fit him properly in the early morning or night, and conversely too small to fit him during the sunlight hours, particularly noon).

Escanor was revealed during the Vampires of Edinburgh side story to be a very meek and weak looking young man, with short-cut hair and a set of clothes that seemed too large to fit him. His clothes were made to be intentionally loose so that they fit him properly.

In the wanted poster, Escanor is depicted as a middle-aged man with a beard and a ponytail hairstyle.

His lion symbol is on his back.

Personality
Escanor's personality changes drastically along with his strength between day and night. At night, he is skiddish, submissive and unfailingly polite. Whereas in the day he is arrogant, boastful, and domineering, he also takes it upon himself to deliver judgement to those he feels have sinned, such as those that toy with feelings. Both personalities seem to be truly him and he remembers everything he does in either, though at night he has chastised himself for losing control during the day.

Despite the great contrast, there are some personality traits he retains day or night, such as his feelings for Merlin and fondness for writing poetry. Even with his prideful personality he still cares for his comrades, but in his own way. Pretending to annihilate Gowther, and instead attacking the two Commandments for toying with people's hearts. But at night he cares very deeply for his captain and comrades, not wishing to harm any, even those he only recently met.

Escanor also doesn't particularly desire anything, as when competing in a tournament for any prize he desires, he simply stated he would like to deliver alcohol for that tournament and not compete, despite his power.

He is also accustomed to others calling him a monster for his unique body changes after suffering a bad childhood when his power first manifested. Even the likes of demons refuse to believe he is a human.

During the day Escanor's pride and attitude is such that he never holds hatred in his heart to anyone, even Demons, as he doesn't hold hatred to those beneath him, he only pities them. This quirk has given him immunity to a Commandment. His pride is also unfailing as when his own blow got reflected to him with greater power, he isn't surprised he got injured by his own attacks.

History
Escanor was born 40 years ago, the prince of the Castellio Kingdom. When he was a child, his older brother Daymond used to pick on him, until one day his power awakened and he accidentally broke his brother's arm. His parents disowned him because of what happened and his strange unexplained appearance, and soon the Kingdom's forces mobilized to kill him. He was rescued by a kind woman named Rosa, who hid him in a barrel and set it a drift at sea. He survived but wherever he went, people called him a monster even when he helped them. That is, until he eventually meets Merlin and Meliodas who asked him to join their knightly order.

12 years ago
With a clan of vampires having taken over the Kingdom of Edinburgh and threatening the Kingdom of Liones and all of Britannia with impending war, the Seven Deadly Sins, including Escanor, were deployed to deal with them and recapture Edinburgh Castle. King and Dreyfus are noticeably unnerved with his inclusion in the mission.

When the mission started, Meliodas had Escanor released from a special containment room whilst the former was dragging the latter's Sacred Treasure. The Lion's Sin of Pride apologized to his captain and reminded him that he would like to be back by morning, if possible. After Meliodas explained that Merlin had made a portal for them, Escanor was reassured and declared his resolve to do his best.

Both Meliodas and Escanor were teleported to the Castle using Merlin's Magical Gate. After being encouraged by Meliodas to have more confidence, Escanor apologizes for being born and starts crying. After that, the two get separated and Escanor is confronted by the Vampire King, Izraf, who demands to know his reason for coming to his castle. He then attacks the Sin of Pride with telekinesis-controlled debris, which Escanor evades with ease. Their fight continues until dawn, when suddenly the Sin stops dodging and faces Izraf. He easily lifts his Sacred Treasure, which he had previously been unable to move, and orders the Vampire King to fight at full power. He then demands an apology from him for being born into his world.

During his Fight with Izraf, Escanor showed his power by easily dispelling the Darkness of the Vampire King with his sheer presence. He then used his Sacred Treasure to lazily cleave the Vampire King's torso, which quickly regenerated, but having come into contact with Escanor's axe, began to burn him. Escanor then read a poem about Merlin that Izraf thought was an incantation, angering Escanor as he proceeded to incinerate Izraf with Sunshine, but not before telling Izraf he had changed his mind about killing him, despite the latter desperately apologizing and pleading for his life. After destroying the castle and killing Izraf, Escanor was approached by Merlin, who he was pleased to see. As she distracted him, he was hit by Gowther's Blackout Arrow, which Merlin had amplified to knock him unconscious until his power depleted. He was then brought home by Merlin. Back at the castle, Escanor was scolding himself for losing control and that his poems aren't worthy of Merlin's ears. Merlin then entered his chamber and asked if she could hear his poem.

10 years ago
Escanor, along with the rest of the Seven Deadly Sins, was summoned to a castle to meet the Great Holy Knight Zaratras after a mission in which they defeated the Troll Queen and caused the accidental destruction of the Great Druid Altar. After they found him dead there, all of them were ambushed by the Holy Knights. When Meliodas ordered everyone to disperse and regroup later, Escanor obeyed and went into hiding.

Introduction arc
Escanor's wanted poster is displayed on a board in the Boar Hat.

Ravens arc
Escanor's is first introduced into the main story when, as the owner of bar, My Sweet Glutonny with his Rhitta embedded on the wall, he is stumbled upon by a wounded Jericho carrying Elaine and Ban who had fled from the deadly pursuit of Galand and Melascula. Welcoming them, Escanor asks who they are and seemingly recognizes Ban of the three, asking Jericho if she's a Holy Knight however, Jericho informs him that the Seven Deadly Sins are now considered heroes not villains, much to his relief. He then asks Ban about Merlin which the bandit ensures him she's safe with Meliodas before asking him to hide them, which Escanor gracefully obliges to by hiding them in a cooler behind him.

With the Ten Commandments arriving now at the scene, a terrified Escanor is sniffed out by Galand who gets distracted by the booze and immediately commences drinking along Melascula. Admiring how the booze has gotten better over the course of 3000 years, Escanor explains its content which Melascula credits him for knowing much about it. Escanor asks who they are and the due respond that they're the Ten Commandments of the Demon King. Surprised, Escanor is challenged to a Galand game, with each of them delivering a blow to the other and the first one to die loses. Despite Jericho and Ban's advice, a terrified Escanor accepts the game and is patted in the back by Galand, but the force Galand used caused the secretive sin to pass out. Before they noticed it, morning had already arose, and as Galand attempted to carry the Rhitta, Escanor snatched it from his hand and told him that mere demons cannot hope to wield this axe. A surprised Galand wonders whether he is human or not and Escanor responds that he is indeed human, but he is the very pinnacle of the human species, introducing himself as the The Lion's Sin of Pride, Escanor of the Seven Deadly Sins.

With Galand surprised of Escanor's audacity, to demonstrate his strength, Escanor slices the commandment in half with a mere swing of his axe. However, just as Melascula remarked, Galand was far from defeated as he casually reattached himself, which Escanor noted him for if he would be done in so easily it wouldn't be very fun. Escanor then proceeds to provoke Galand by telling him to continue their game and hit him, which Galand responds to by activating his Critical Over ability to maximize his physical strength, which shocked Escanor greatly. Galand then swings his spear and delivers a land-shattering blow to Escanor's shoulder, in hopes of defeating the Lion's sin but to no avail, as the commandment's most powerful attack only barely bruised the brute. Escanor shows his disappointment, saying that it is now his turn, releasing an intense aura of supremacy, so great that Galand broke his own oath and subliminally tried to escape, but was petrified due to breaking his oath while Escanor proceeds to sigh in disappointment.

After musing about the effect of Galand's Commandment, Escanor tells Melascula that she can either run or stay and die. Melascula sarcastically thanks him for the offer and freeing her from Galand, and uses her Antan no Mayu to trap Escanor and proceeds to remove and eat his soul. However, Escanor's soul contains too much power for her to handle, escapes from her mouth and destroys her cocoon. As Melascula screams in agony as she is consumed in flames, Escanor answers her question of what his power is, replying Sunshine. After defeating them, he tells Ban that he needs to speak to him on important business and orders him to stay there and wait for him as it was almost noon. Ban agrees and waits for the man who returns at night in his Night form, much to Jericho's dismay, Escanor asks Ban how the rest of the group are doing and Ban tells him that he's left them for a while, but knows they are on the move. The Lion's sin then tells him that he is planning on returning to the group, but he cannot do so before finishing one last job as the barkeep of his bar, asking Ban to help him with it. It was then that King showed up.

Great Fight Festival arc
Escanor is later seen as part of the Great Fight Festival when Gowther arrives and lands on top of him. He politely asks him to get off his back and as Gowther recognizes, Escanor notices his glasses are broken and panics. He is then instantly impaled by a vine from Gloxinia but restored right away. After being forced to participate in the fight, and being paired with Hawk, a worried Escanor is then shocked to see a talking pig behind him.

When both of them go against Gowther and Jericho, Escanor gets scared when Gowther said he will kill them both and win the tournement to gain a heart and feel remorse for their deaths. Escanor tries to convince Gloxinia and Drole to let him forfeit the battle or at least change the rules so he won't have to fight Gowther as he is a precious friend. As his request is denied, Gowther goes with all his strength against him while taking down Jericho and Hawk. Gowther uses Nightmare Terror against him and Escanor stars remembering his past with his family and how he was tormented after breaking his brother's arm, the reject from his mother and even how they tried to kill him, and how a mysterious woman helps him to escape. For a brief moment, he also remembered the time when he met Merlin and Meliodas and the feelings that started growing for her.

This moment turn into a nightmare when Merlin says to him that she'll never be with a man with no future as his curse will consume his body to nothing. Gowther, believing he had already put Escanor in an eternal darkness of despair, is shocked to hear and see Escanor is conscious; but even more as Escanor pseudo transforms into his more powerful form thanks to his ability. Escanor says that that nightmare was not despair but hope for him as Merlin was always a ray of light in his path. With his strength back, Escanor states he will make him pay for playing with the hearts of others.

Escanor delivers a simple blow to Gowther to take off his glasses, causing Gowther to see all blurry. Escanor starts evading Gowther's Gatling Jack erratic attacks and calls for his sacred treasure. Escanor and Gowther prepare for their last attack, but the truth was Escanor was aiming and attacking Drole and Gloxinia. Unfortunately, Escanor collapses thanks to Gowther's attack and turns back to his weak form.

When Escanor regained conscience, Gowther holds him to see how he was. Escanor tells him that even though he doesn't have a heart, he's still one of his precious comrades and that is why he would not let go of the Ten Commandments, for playing with the heart of his friends (stating otherwise that Gowther actually has a heart).

Escanor, along with everyone, are teleported far away by Gilfrost into safety and he watches the battle of his Captain against the Commandments through a crystal ball in shock.

Defensive Battle for Liones arc
One month after Meliodas' Death, Escanor shows up during the Ten Commandments' siege on Liones to aid his fellow Deadly Sins and the other Holy Knights, who are paralyzed by Estarossa's Commandment.

Estarossa feeling superior because of his commandment, notices that Escanor is not affected by it and asks the Sin for the reason why. Escanor replies that he isn't able feel hatred against those beneath him, merely pity.

In the beginning of the fight Estarossa appears to have the advantage, tossing Escanor around, but Escanor quickly turns the tables as the sun continues to rise towards noon. Estarossa shows that he is able to use Full Counter on physical attacks, mildly surprising the Sin.

Seeing how physical attacks wouldn't be the best option, Escanor decides to use a magical attack. He then produces a miniature sun in his hand. As his allies are having problems with the heat emitted from the sphere, Escanor decides to traslate the fight to another location. He then pushes the sphere, Cruel Sun, against Estarossa, sending him flying towards a nearby lake. As the Commandment falls into the water, Escanor makes the sunsphere explode, releasing so much heat that the lake completely evaporates in the process.

Estarossa admits he would have been in trouble if he had released his darkness a second later. Escanor prepares another Cruel Sun, but Estarossa quickly hinders his plans, using his dark powers to cover the sun. Nonetheless, Escanor decides to attack anyways with Rhitta. Estarossa uses Full Counter again, reflecting all of Escanor's power, greatly damaging him. As he seals Escanor's magic, the Commandment declares his victory, having the upper hand both physically and magically. But as noon comes closer and closer, Escanor's power level rises yet again, overcoming all impediments set by Estarossa, who is greatly shocked by Escanor's suddenly increased power. Escanor eventually launches another Cruel Sun towards Estarossa. Zeldris, who has been watching the fight, tries to pull his brother away, but is also blown away by the force of the attack.

Escanor then proceeds to return to Liones Castle in order to support his comrades.

Current arc
When Diane and King arrive at Liones, finally reuniting the Seven Deadly Sins, Escanor warmly welcomes them back.

After Bartra shows Gowther's "heart", he then runs away. Escanor accompanies the other Sins to chase him.

Some time later, Escanor is in a tavern with King and Gowther. A drunk King begins to discuss with Gowther about his past doings and falls asleep. Gowther feels sorry for all the stuff he did to King in the past, but Escanor comfort him, saying that King is a kind person. Escanor hears Gowther's desire of being a better person, and says to him that he likes Gowther. When the two take the drunk fairy to go back home, King accidentally knocks Escanor's glasses off, making him to violently grow larger and pissed off of having to take care of King. Gowther quickly gets his glasses and put them back on Escanor's face, causing him to shrink back. Escanor thanks Gowther, saying that things would have gone bad if the magic glasses given to him by Merlin would break.

Later, the Sins had a reunion party. While everyone is drinking Escanor recites poems. Escanor get worried about Merlin looking at her empty chair and asks if he can go check on her, but in that moment Merlin arrives. Escanor proposes another toast.

With all the sins in the room, they toast to their reunion. Then Diane asks Gowther how his creator ended the Holy War, with Meliodas and Merlin questioning that. Escanor says that according to the passed down legend, supposedly the Goddess Clan sacrificed themselves to seal the Demon Clan and end the war. However, Gowther couldn't give a response.

Before going to her room, Merlin reestablishes the fact that Zeldris is still alive. Meliodas prioritizes freeing the people of Liones and liberating Camelot first before fighting Zeldris. When Merlin walks off and enters a room, she almost collapses and is caught by the captain. Meliodas then asks if Zeldris did something to her, however she tries to avoid answering it. He sets her on the bed and tell her he know that she's trying to protect Arthur. Escanor, who went to check on Merlin, overhears her with a sad expression, when she asks Meliodas to help because Arthur is her hope.

Later, an anxious Escanor is by Merlin's bedside, watching Hendrickson trying to help her. The druid cannot do nothing to aid, so he decided to call Elizabeth. Elizabeth can finally make Merlin better. Merlin thanks Escanor for noticing that she was showing symptons of a curse. Escanor, humbly says it was nothing, as he thinks of Merlin's earlier words.

In the way to Corand, after Elizabeth collapsed after remember his past lifes, Meliodas tells everyone that Elizabeth is going to die in three days. Everyone becomes appalled, and Diane asks if he is joking. Meliodas decides to tell everyone about he and Elizabeth were cursed by their parents.

When the sins arrive at Corand, Zeldris himself welcomes them. Meliodas rushes to attack him, but all was an illusion done by Melascula, with the objective of trapping Meliodas inside her Antan no Mayu. Melascula summons an army of skeletons to fight the rest. Seeing this is not enough she enhances them with Shura no Onshu. Escanor takes off his glasses to fight. Easily destroying all of his enemies. Later, tries to stop a possessed Diane.

During the fight, Meliodas finally breaks out of Melascula's cocoon, but in a berserk state, showing his progressive regression to his old self. Melascula calls this form Assault Mode and states that they used to fear it, when Meliodas was the leader of the Ten Commandments.

Escanor quickly get in action and calls for his sacred treasure and asks Merlin to encase both of them inside a Perfect Cube. A fierce battle between the two starts. Escanor seems to have the odds against him in the battle at first, as Meliodas avoids all of his strikes, and having to block the incoming attacks of the captain as well. After receiving a severe wound in the abdomen, Escanor falls down. As high noon gets closer and closer, his power level raises once more, growing larger, with the wound closing by itself. Shocked, Hawk states his power level as 114,000. Escanor recommences the fight, with a powerful axe strike, that results uneffective. Meliodas delivers a single punch right to Escanor's chest, making him falling down on his knees. Meliodas then puts his foot on Escanor's head, and mocks him.

Escanor charges once again, striking with his weapon and using magic skills, to no avail. Meliodas manages to make Escanor to drop Rhitta. Meliodas takes the chance to slice open Escanor's stomach, but is stopped due to the blade getting stuck in Escanor's flesh. Escanor takes and throw Lostvayne away, then delivers a punch to Meliodas's face, with little effect. Meliodas returns the blow, making Escanor bounce around the Perfect Cube, and falling to the ground yet again. Escanor is praised by Meliodas, who calls him an impressive human.

As Meliodas picks up his sword, high noon comes. In this point, Escanor is able to reach the peak of his power, entering into "The One" state, the “invincible incarnation of power”, according to Merlin. Meliodas shrouds himself in darkness and slash Escanor multiple times with Kami Chigiri, but Escanor replies that he felt nothing but an itch. Meliodas attacks Escanor once again. Escanor then uses Seiken Escanor, giving Meliodas a large cut across his chest with just his bare hand, almost splitting him in half. Meliodas, greatly damaged and barely standing, insults Escanor, but rapidly fall unconscious. Escanor claims victory, asking Meliodas how it feels for a demon god to be looked down upon by a human.

Merlin then dispels Perfect Cube, and uses her Telekinesis to carry an unconscious Meliodas back to the Boar Hat. In the way, Escanor falls unconscious. Merlin explains that due to Sunshine being such a powerful magic, Escanor exerted himself for suddenly releasing too much power in The One form after not doing so for several long years.

Abilities and Equipment
As a member of the Seven Deadly Sins, Escanor is very powerful.

Abilities

 * Escanor's ability is one of duality, he is the weakest amongst all holy knights at midnight but starting from dawn his power level begins to rise steadily from one hour to the next, until it peaks at noon. During his fight with Galand, his power level was shown increasing by 5 points with seemingly every second and was measured at 50,060 while continuing to rise. At his peak, according to Merlin, he easily surpasses any of the other Sins. This cycle is marked with distinct differences in his abilities, personality and appearance.
 * Daytime: Beginning with the rising of the Sun at dawn Escanor begins to make a dramatic change, both physically and mentally. He grows much taller and muscular, with his clothes being ripped off him unless specifically tailored to his growth. In this state, his physical strength and endurance are incredible and his immense magic power casually radiates from his body as intense heat which normally reduces everything around him to ashes He seems to be able to exert some control over this, being able to prevent friends from being hurt or turning his power up at will to produce intense light and heat to capable of melting even stone. In this state, his normally skiddish demeanor is replaced by one of confidence and a royal atmosphere. During noon when his power is at its peak, he becomes a colossal man, dwarfing larger people.
 * The One: During noon, when his power is at its peak for one minute, he becomes the manifestation of power itself and his body dwarfs normal people. In this form he is said to be invincible.
 * Night-time: With the setting of the Sun, Escanor returns to his original, skiddish self. He's seemingly weaker than an average human, and his power level has been measured at 15.


 * Escanor delivers a powerful downwards slash with his axe that causes considerable damage that can be felt from several meters away.


 * After Escanor reaches the peak of his power and he becomes The One, he makes a downward swiping motion with his hand that can cut an opponent.

Weapons

 * Divine Axe Rhitta: A giant, ornamental axe, named after a maiden said to be loved by the Sun. It is incredibly heavy and most of its weight is concentrated in the head, which makes it very off-balanced, yet in the day he is able to wield it with one hand.


 * Large Spear: A large spear Escanor possessed and was shown with briefly ten years ago before the Seven Deadly Sins were framed for Zaratras' murder. It appears to be not as heavy in comparison to his Sacred Treasure.


 * Magic Glasses: Given to him recently by Merlin, Escanor is able to suppress his daytime form. However, he will instantly transform into his larger self if they are removed.

Power Level
Due to his power, Escanor's power level is constantly fluctuating and cannot be accurately measured for an extended period of time. The lowest it has been recorded is 15 at an unspecified period of time, and the highest it has been recorded is 114,000.

At high noon his power reaches its peak and he becomes "The One," described as an "invincible incarnation of power" by Merlin, for a minute.

Merlin
Escanor is in love with Merlin. This loves stems from her being the first person to not only not be afraid of him or his power, but to be actively intrigued by it. In his own words, he never expected her to return his feelings and has accepted that, viewing her as the one to illuminate his path, just like the Sun would.

Meliodas
Besides Merlin, Meliodas is the person Escanor respects the most. Meliodas is aware of Escanor's insecurities and feelings for Merlin and actively encourages him to gain more confidence and tell her, but he does so, in a kind way befitting a leader.

Upon learning of Meliodas's curse, Escanor comes up with and recites a poem regarding both his and Meliodas's curses in an attempt to cheer him up, as he understands what it feels like to be cursed. Meliodas in return appreciates his efforts and thanks him with a smile.

Ban
Being both members of The Seven Deadly Sins, their relationship is that of comrades. As such both are concerned about each other's well being as demonstrated by Escanor aiding Ban, Jericho, and Elaine without hesitation from Galand and Melascula as well as Ban being fearful for Escanor's well being against Melascula's 'Gloom Cocoon' and Gloxinia impaling Escanor. At night, Ban tends to playfully make fun of Escanor.

That being said Ban is weary of Escanor during the day and does not trust him completely seen by him thinking he would kill Hawk, Jericho, and Gowther and him being startled to see it was already day when being kept in the storage room. In the day, Escanor sees himself as an authority figure to Ban as he orders him to stay where he is until night fall.

Gowther
Escanor and Gowther seemed to have met soon after. Escanor considers a close friend despite Gowther not having a "heart" to truly understand what this would mean. Even when Gowther attempted to break Escanor's spirit, Escanor did not blame him, but the Ten Commandments for toying with Gowther's desires in the first place. His faith in Gowther is so much that he doubts the latter's claim of being heartless.

King
Escanor and King are both members of The Seven Deadly Sins, and as such; their relationship is that of comrades. Due to their limited interaction with one another, it is currently unknown how close they are compared to other members of the sins, however like Ban, King is very weary of Escanor during the day because of his power.

Diane
Escanor and Diane are both members of The Seven Deadly Sins, and as such; their relationship is that of comrades. Due to their limited interaction with one another, it is currently unknown how close they are compared to other members of the sins, however like Ban, she is very weary of Escanor during the day, and has even stated that she finds him scary when his power is active.

Elizabeth Liones
Escanor is the last of the sins to have met Elizabeth, meeting her shortly during the Great Fighting Festival in Vaizel, then being properly introduced to her after Meliodas' revival and the complete reunion of all seven Sins. Since then, the two have become quick friends with one another, with their friendship and trust in one another being surprisingly strong. Even after the revelation of her and Meliodas' past, the activation of both of their curses, and even after watching him fight to suppress Meliodas' Assault Mode, the two seem to be on good terms with one another, enough that Escanor is willing to fight to save her and Meliodas both from their respective curses.

Hawk
Like Elizabeth, Escanor first met Hawk during the Great Fighting Festival in Vaizel, being partnered with him during the festival. Their first impressions of one another during the festival were poor. Hawk viewed Escanor as a weakling and Escanor in turn was both confused and frightened by the fact the Hawk was a talking pig. However, after seeing Escanor's true power during the festival, and after seeing Hawk's bravery during the events and how he carried him around for the remainder of the festival, the two quickly became close friends, though Hawk is still just as weary of Escanor's power as everyone else. Even in his Daytime form, Escanor is very fond of Hawk, to the point of holding the pig for his own protection during the Seven Deadly Sins' battle against Melascula. He even confides to Hawk about his feelings towards Merlin, and asked him if he would see if she felt the same way, although Hawk did point out how shameless and forceful he was being considering that he was asking for a favor.
