The Sparring Partner appears only once in the mission "A Keeper's Training." His purpose is to teach the player sword to sword combat.
Appearance[]
He has the appearance of a regular Bafford Guard, but is in fact a Keeper in disguise.
Encounter[]
After Garrett reaches the courtyard and learns how to utilize the Sword by hitting the training dummy he is asked to step into the cobbled sparring area after which the Sparring Partner appears out of a nearby door.[1] When Garrett attacks the Sparring Partner with his sword he will start to attack back like a normal guard. After enough combat has occurred the player can exit the sparring area after which the fight is done or continue with the fight.[2] At the end of the sparring match, the Sparring Partner walks back through the doorway he came from.
Notes[]
- Neither Garrett nor the Sparring Partner does take or inflict any damage (even tough wails of agony is heard when one of them receiving a swift blow).
- The Sparring Partner is voiced by Stephen Russell, just like Garrett.
- The portcullis on the doorway will not close unless Garrett is out in the courtyard, so the room on the other side can be entered by following closely after the Sparring Partner. This room is separated from the secret Basketball court by a locked wooden door.
