He is a member of the Seven Deadly Sins, and is considered the most powerful of their ranks. During the day, he becomes immensely powerful, and at night, he became frail and weak. His Sacred Treasure is the Divine Axe Rhitta. His inherent power is named Sunshine. 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, as 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.
