Garak Gazelt has blonde hair styled in a half ponytail bun, giving her a neat and professional appearance. She has deep purple eyes, which add to her sharp and observant look. A distinctive accessory she often wears is a pair of long pale red earrings, each featuring a darker red stripe near the bottom, subtly complementing her elegant yet practical style.

As the Chief Court Pharmacist, Garak is always seen wearing a white lab coat, a symbol of her position and dedication to her work. Her overall appearance reflects both her authority and her commitment to the medical profession within the palace.

Garak Gazelt is known for her laid-back and eccentric personality, often displaying behavior that is both humorous and unpredictable. One example of her unconventional methods is when she casually throws darts at a map to choose her next destination for gathering medicinal herbs, highlighting her spontaneous nature.

While she can appear carefree and even quirky at times, Garak also has a sharp and demanding side, especially when it comes to professional standards and her work as Chief Court Pharmacist. She expects diligence and competence from those under her supervision, but she balances that with a supportive attitude toward her subordinates.

Despite her oddities, Garak is extremely skilled in her field and is deeply respected for her knowledge and leadership. She also shows a genuine care and protective attitude toward both Shirayuki and Ryuu, treating them not only as capable apprentices but also as people she values personally.

Not much is known about Garak Gazelt’s personal background, as she tends to keep the details of her past to herself. Despite this, she is well-versed in the history of Clarines and often shows enthusiasm when discussing the kingdom’s traditions, development, and culture. Her deep knowledge of the country’s medical practices and royal institutions suggests that she has spent a significant portion of her life in service to the palace or within the field of herbal medicine.

Though her own story remains largely untold, Garak’s role as Chief Court Pharmacist and her familiarity with the inner workings of the royal palace speak to a long-standing and trusted position within the kingdom.

Ryuu
Ryuu is Garak’s protégé and student, whom she recognized for his exceptional talent from a very young age. Garak has played a significant role in raising and mentoring Ryuu, and she genuinely cares for his health, emotional growth, and social development. Although he is quiet and reserved, Garak believes in his abilities as a Court Herbalist and fully supported Prince Izana’s decision to send Ryuu to Lilias, knowing the experience would help him grow professionally and personally by interacting with a wider range of people.

Shirayuki
While Shirayuki was technically apprenticed under Ryuu, Garak also took a direct interest in her development. She was impressed by Shirayuki’s quick thinking and resourcefulness, particularly during her entrance exam, and became fond of her determination and strong sense of responsibility. However, Garak does not hesitate to scold Shirayuki when she acts recklessly, such as during the Olin Maris incident, reflecting her concern for both Shirayuki’s safety and professional growth. Despite her tough love, it is clear that Garak cares deeply for Shirayuki and sees her as a promising herbalist.

Shidan
Shidan is an old colleague and friend of Garak, with whom she shares a long and complicated history. Though the two are often seen bickering, Shidan openly acknowledges Garak’s skill, even stating that she was always distant, no matter how close they were. Their dynamic appears to involve rivalry and unspoken affection, especially on Shidan’s part. In their youth, Garak invited him to join her at the palace, but Shidan refused, saying he wouldn’t be able to surpass her if he followed her path.

After going their separate ways, Garak remained at the royal palace, while Shidan worked at Lilias. Their shared past gave rise to various rumors some speculating that they were lovers, engaged, or that Shidan was her former disciple. Flashbacks reveal that Shidan once attempted to kiss Garak while she was asleep, but ultimately chose not to act on his feelings. Despite their rivalry, there is mutual respect between them, suggesting a deep, albeit complicated, bond.

Obi
Garak and Obi developed a casual friendship over time, largely due to Obi frequently visiting the pharmacy as Shirayuki’s bodyguard. While they don’t interact professionally, they appear to be drinking companions, often seen sharing drinks thanks to their high alcohol tolerance. Their lighthearted rapport adds a bit of levity to the palace environment and shows another side of Garak’s personality, one that is sociable and relaxed outside of work.
