Name: Yodarha
Canon: Granblue Fantasy
Canon point: Post 5* SSR Uncap (latest canon point possible)
Age: 66

History: 1) A master swordsman in his youth, Yodarha founded a school to teach his craft in his middle age, attracting a wide swath of disciples. However, some took his teachings and decided to use them for evil instead of good. Brokenhearted by this, Yodarha hunted down several before eventually fading away into the shadows for several years. The only thing that pulled him out of his hermitage was a young captain of a skyfaring crew and his friends.

2) Yodarha learned that his strongest disciple, a woman named Grace, was committing mass murders despite being injured in such a way that would make her unable to wield a normal weapon ever again. Donning his white robes, Yodarha followed the trail of bodies with the goal of striking her down for good, even if it cost him his life. He accomplished his task, but not without taking mortal wounds that would've killed a normal person. Fortunately, he survived the ordeal.

3) After a long period of recovery, Yodarha was finally up and practicing his sword skills once more... but his inner fire was spent - he was missing something to strive for. Training alongside one of his pupils and some old warrior friends, Yodarha learned a new technique, the Serene Sinker - a method of swinging his sword so quickly that it's nearly impossible to see with the naked eye. With a new move to master, Yodarha's inner fire was re-lit, and he was finally able to rejoin the crew that he cared deeply for.

Powers: First and foremost, Yodarha is a master swordsman, able to clash head on with his world's strongest warriors at an even keel. As a harvin, his small frame makes him light and his feet and incredibly agile when it comes to movement. Finally, he appears to have a limited control of water magic, able to conjure thick mist out of thin air as well as following up his sword strikes with small bursts of water.

MANDATORY QUESTIONS

- Of all the things you own or have owned, what is the most important to you?
Ohhh, that's a toughie. If I had to pick a physical item, I guess it'd be my white robes. They're a symbol of... things I'd rather forget. But I can't. I have to remember my failures just as much as my successes if I wanna keep moving onward and upward!
- Where is it you feel most at peace, or most whole?
There's nothin' quite like sitting on the edge of a dock or a boat, fishing rod in hand, feeling the breeze through your hair as you watch the bobber float on the water's surface. The tension of waitin' for a catch, followed by the fish sailing through the air into your grasp... and of course the satisfaction of a filling and delicious meal on the other end of the act... Now that's true peace and true wholeness right there, hyuk-hyuk!
- Describe what gives you the most strength.
It took me a long time to realize it, but the mutual respect and understanding from a mentor-pupil relationship is what keeps me goin'. If it weren't for the Captain, Katalina, and Rhens, I think I'd still be in hiding, regretting what I did in the past and never moving on from it.

OPTIONAL QUESTIONS

- What is more important to you: embracing your individuality, or preserving the status quo?
If I don't toot my own horn, who's gonna do it for me? Hyuk-hyuk!
- Ultimate power comes at the cost of community. Being a part of a community comes at the cost of great power. Which would you choose?
Community. It's a no-brainer! And besides, if you have this 'ultimate power', that means you have nothing to improve on. And that sounds boring!
- Do you consider the rules and laws to be an important part of society? How so?
They're important up until they start hurtin' people who don't deserve it. Laws are set in stone to keep people safe. If they can't do that, then they deserve to get railed against until things are fixed.
- Do you forgive easily, or do you hold grudges?
You gotta do somethin' absolutely terrible to get me to hate you, hyuk-hyuk!
- Have you ever made a promise you can't keep?
Yeah. And it was the worst thing I ever did. Never again.
- What are you most proud of?
Watching my pupils grow and mature as they develop their skills. It brings a tear to my eye seein' them flourish!
- What would you describe as your weakness?
In the past I would've said 'emotional attachment'. But nowadays I think it's stubbornness. I'll push myself to the brink and even go past it to accomplish what I think is right.
- Name one thing you refuse to compromise on, and why.
I won't let people put themselves down without sayin' something about it. We all have areas to improve on, that's what makes us... us. To push it away and ignore it... I know that all too well, and it ain't a good path to go down.
- What is your one wish or greatest desire?
My pupils wouldn't like to hear it, but to die in battle protecting the ones I care about the most is my greatest wish.
- What is your favorite color? Why?
A nice deep blue. It reminds me of a big body of water, somethin' I can get lost in.
- What arcana best represents you? Why?
Mmm, like those cards the Evoker folk use? Hermit seems fitting enough. I'm a man that spent a long time by myself, contemplating my own worth alongside nature. I even look the part of a hermit, hyuk-hyuk!
- Cats or dogs?
What a hard choice! I like 'em both, but if I had to choose only one, dogs. They can be so loyal and helpful!

Inventory:
1 & 2) Yodarha's twin swords. Balanced perfectly for him and him alone.
3) A fishing rod sized appropriately for a harvin.
4) A tackle box filled with all sorts of bits and bobbers, some of which were hand-crafted by Yodarha himself.

Sage Crest: Directly on his left eye, if that's a possible option! Otherwise I'm totally fine with the mods coming up with something else.

Questions?: None that I can think of!

PAIR CLAUSE: Understood!
