History: Garnet was born under the name of Sarah in Madain Sari, where she was part of a Summoner tribe. Like all Summoners, she had a horn in her forehead. However, she and her mother had to escape from Madain Sari when Garland attacked it with the Invincible. The boat was destroyed, and her mother was killed.
She washed ashore in Alexandria, where she was discovered by the King of Alexandria. She looked almost identical to the real Princess Garnet, who had died not long before from illness, with the exception of her horn. The King ordered that her horn be removed and that she become a "replacement" princess. She was then raised as the Princess of Alexandria, and always thought that Queen Brahne was her mother. Pluto Knight, Adelbert Steiner is ordered to protect her.
When Queen Brahne began to change, the princess sought to escape Alexandria, only to find that the thief group Tantalus planned to kidnap her. She went along with this, though at first toying with Zidane while dressed as a White Mage. She eventually joined with Tantalus as they escaped from Alexandria, and aided Zidane in fighting Steiner. In the middle of the escape, Steiner was taken along with her. The Tantalus Theater Ship was badly damaged by a Bomb and they fell into the Evil Forest. Steiner joined together with the Tantalus kidnappers to save her from the monsters inside the forest.
Garnet struggled hard to hide her identity as the Princess of Alexandria, and as a precautionary measure before entering the village of Dali, she adopts the alias of "Dagger", taking the title from Zidane's knife. Upon entering the village, Zidane began to tutor her in "common speak", a task Garnet had difficulty with, often addressing the townspeople in an overly formal manner.
Upon arriving at Lindblum, Garnet was eager to meet her uncle, Regent Cid Fabool IX, insisting that they speak about Queen Brahne's new ambitions. Lindblum is the first place that Garnet's memory of the song Melodies of Life is revealed. Zidane hears Garnet singing the melody from the top of Lindblum Castle. When Zidane asks her where she learned the song, Garnet cannot give a straight answer.
Cid refused to take major action against the kingdom of Alexandria, and he and Zidane told Garnet to remain in Lindblum for her own safety. Unhappy with this, Garnet resolved to visit her mother herself, using a feast to commemorate the Festival of the Hunt to her own means. Garnet poisons the food of everyone else at the table with Sleeping Weed, except for Steiner. She then dragged Steiner along with her and left for the South Gate. Along the way, Steiner was forced to hide her in a burlap sack in order to avoid detection, and Garnet uses the nauseous odor of Ghysal Pickles as an extra precaution.
Though the princess and her knight reached Alexandria safely, Garnet was betrayed by Queen Brahne, who ordered the jesters Zorn and Thorn to extract Eidolons from her. The summons Odin, Atomos, and Bahamut were later used by the Queen and Kuja as weapons.
After being rescued by Zidane, Garnet begins to have internal conflicts about the trustworthiness of her mother and the Eidolons within herself. When the party's Gargant crashes at Pinnacle Rocks, Garnet meets the Eidolon Ramuh. It is here that the princess casts aside her fear of the Eidolons, and Ramuh becomes the first Eidolon she is likely to summon.
Garnet's roots in the summoning arts are further explored when the party ventures to Madain Sari on the Outer Continent. Eiko Carol shows them the destroyed village, and Garnet discovers her true past and birthrights. Though the two have a sort of rivalry over Zidane's affections, they eventually become friends and learn that they are the last two summoners of Madain Sari. Garnet also finds out that Eiko knows the tune to Melodies of Life, so it may be said that the song had its origins in the summoning village.
At the Iifa Tree, Queen Brahne's attempts at dispatching Kuja with Bahamut backfires on her, and the Genome leaves her for dead on the beach. Garnet rushes down and attempts for comforts her adopted mother, but her efforts are in vain. Brahne dies on the shores of the Outer Continent, but not before apologizing for her deeds and asking Garnet for forgiveness. Garnet then becomes the new Queen of Alexandria.
The festivities surrounding her coronation are short-lived; as Kuja returns to Alexandria with the Eidolon Bahamut, who begins to destroy the city. Garnet joins with Eiko to summon the Eidolon Alexander, who defeats Bahamut. However, Garland uses the Invincible to obliterate Alexander and much of Alexandria. The shock renders Garnet mute, and she is unable to speak for a large portion of the game, apparently guilt-ridden for failing to protect her kingdom. After returning from Kuja's palace, Zidane finds Garnet in Alexandria, mourning at the grave of her adopted mother. Here, Garnet breaks her silence by resolutely telling Zidane she will fight for her country. She once again takes Zidane's dagger, and uses it to cut off her ponytail, perhaps seeing this as a way of moving on with her life.
Later in the game, the party may return to the ruins of Madain Sari to discover Garnet's true name, which is Sarah.
After the defeat of Necron, Zidane apparently sacrifices himself to return to the body of Kuja. Garnet returns to Alexandria to rule, but she cannot forget Zidane's absence. Sometime later, Tantalus once again comes to the streets of Alexandria, performing I Want to be Your Canary in honor of the Queen. The character supposed to be Marcus throws off his cloak at the play's climax, revealing himself to be Zidane. The game ends with Garnet and Zidane embracing in front of the applauding Alexandrian crowd.(Used Final Fantasy Wikia..)
Sample Role Play Post: Walking throughout the castle, the newly crowned queen of Alexandria was anxiously waiting for her beloved too return to her side. It had been nearly a year since that day, the day she, along with her friends, saved the world. It had been a while since she had seen her friend's, but she hoped to soon. Her long, onyx, black hair streamed down her back as it covered her long, white dress. Walking out to the balcony as she took a seat in the throne over looking the now docked Tantalus Theatre Ship, she smiled brightly. And soon.. the play began.
As the play neared it's climax Garnet's eyes went wide and the cloaked man who was playing the character of Marcus threw his cloak off and shouted these word's. "Please, bring back my Dagger to me!" It was Zidane! Her beloved, who had been presumed dead when he didnt return a year ago, had returned to her! The queen quickly dashed to the door leading to the castle corridor's, her knights, Beatrix, and Steiner, opened the door's for her, and soon she appeared within the Alexandrian crowd. Throwing her crown off of her head, she continued to run toward's him. Soon her beloved gem that had been passed down from generation to generation in her adopted family's chain snapped and it fell from her neck. She shook her head as she watched it fall and continued on her path. Finally reaching Zidane tear's began to fall down her cheek's as she pulled him into an embrace. Banging her fist on his chest, she asked. "How did you survive...?" The genome smiled and looked into Garnet's eyes. "Because I had to.. I had to survive, to return the the place I belong... So..." Garnet blinked twice. "So?" Zidane grinned. "I sang your song." Garnet giggled and smiled. "You sang our song..."
