Weakness: Without sunlight, Escanor is weaker than a normal human (power level of 15 while Hawk's power level is 30), but once the sun rises his power rises as well, peeking at noon. Once Escanor powers up he can't control his powers and Rhitta anymore. Psuedo-Transformation Escanor lasts only for for few seconds and works around the concept of imagining Merlin as his sun.
Standard equipment: Sacred Treasure, Divine Axe Rhitta (which is so heavy even Galan couldnt properly lift it)
Noteworthy techniques and abilities
Sunshine: Escanor's magical power which allows him to emit fire hotter than the Purgatory flames. The fire flows out of his body and it's stored in his Sacred Treasure which he can use to release them once it's gathered enough power.
- Cruel Sun: Escanor creates a ball of energy and throws it at his opponent.
- Pride Flare: Escanor uses this to detonate Cruel Sun, resulting in a big explosion that was hot enough to melt an entire lake in a blink of an eye.
