Escanor is the Seven Deadly Sins’ Lion Sin of Pride, also known as “The Strongest Holy Knight.” He possesses a Sacred Treasure called the Divine Axe Rhitta.

Escanor is one of the strongest people with a prideful personality backed by his genuine skill and competence.

Escanor’s last poem before he died was: “The finest of wines, able to lull the heart into the sweetest intoxication… that is your lonely love.
