Character details

One of the Knights of the Round Table in the Legend of King Arthur.

His class is Saber, but due to the fame of his archery skills, he is often summoned as an Archer.

The story of Tristan and Iseult, the woman he loved, is one of the most popular legends in Europe.

Profile 1

Height/Weight: 186cm, 78kg

Origin: Legend of King Arthur

Region: Britain

Alignment: Lawful-Good

Sub-Attribute: Earth

Gender: Male

No matter what he does, he seems melancholic and beautiful.

Profile 2

Tristan was the child of Rivalen, King of Leonois, and Blancheflor, the younger sister of Mark, Prince of Cornwall. However, his circumstances were fit to call him "Child of Sadness."

To begin with, his father Rivalen died in battle without ever being able to see Tristan's face.

His mother Blancheflor passed away shortly after giving birth and naming her child Tristan, entrusting him to Loire, a loyal subordinate of Rivalen.

Profile 3

Later, Tristan served as a knight under his uncle, King Mark.

Tristan served the king as a good knight - and the king put much faith into this handsome knight.

However, one day, Tristan fell in love with a woman named Iseult. No, he accidentally fell in love.

Profile 4

The tragedy was that Iseult was in fact the woman King Mark swore to love and welcomed as his bride.

Eventually, due to the admonition of King Mark's courtiers who envied Tristan, he was forced to leave the royal court.

Later, Tristan married someone who coincidentally shared the same name as Iseult. However, Tristan's feelings for the other Iseult only grew stronger.

Profile 5

One day, Tristan fell to poison in a certain battle, and near death, he sought to see Iseult one more time.

"If she is coming, raise a white sail. If she is not, a black sail..."

As Tristan waited for the ship carrying Iseult, his wife Iseult whispered to him.

"A ship with a black sail is headed this way."

With this small treason - this lie - against her husband who never tried to love her despite their marriage, the curtains closed on the tale of Tristan.

Additional profile

King Arthur was a respectable king, impartial and sincere, so much so that there remained no room for human emotion to get in the way.

Seeing the king's endless self-denial in continuing to lead and fight for Camelot was heartbreaking. That it was so honorable, so righteous, only made it all the more tragic.

Tristan's psyche could no longer stand such human suffering. His parting words when he left the Round Table became a curse on many of his fellows, and unbeknownst to him, even upon the king:

"Our king does not understand the human heart."

Bond Level 1
Yes, Master? What is the matter?
Bond Level 2
You seem fatigued, Master. May it be that you find some respite.
Bond Level 3
My old homelands were once plagued by war. But one king, my king, sought to win back peace.
Bond Level 4
The King of Knights... Never faltering in the battle for peace. Myself and those around me, we all believed that was how a true king should be.
Bond Level 5
But I was so wrong. So fatally wrong... Now, Master, I can only hope never to be so mistaken again. I will fight now alongside you, and bear your burdens.
Bond Level 5 (After Completing Part 2 Chapter 1)
It is quite difficult to have a day where you do not lose or feel you might falter. If you can't help yourself, allow me to step in. I will cut away everything that weighs you down. That is the vow I take as your Servant.
Conversation 1
Master, fate is a terrible mistress. Yet, be that as it may, no hope lies in indolence.
Conversation 2
Yes. As long as you are righteous and stand as my Master, I will follow your commands.
Conversation 3
As a man who once abandoned his own lord, I would ask that you not put your faith in me.
Conversation 3 (After Completing Part 2 Chapter 3 intro)
Our relationship may be Master and Servant, but there's also something between us beyond loyalty. At least that's what I like to think, but what about you? I do believe I would die for you. ...Yes, that was a joke.
Likes
...Love can mislead a man. This much I know. Yet still I cannot cast it aside.
Dislikes
I am not fond of callousness, such as the kind that is expressed by one who abruptly ends a conversation exclaiming, "You do not understand the human heart."
About the Holy Grail
The Holy Grail? If my olden king had any wish at all, I would simply wish that his desire be answered...
Conversation 4
It cannot be... The King of Knights... No, pay me no mind. I am most certain the king possesses no desire to lay eyes upon this shameful face.
Conversation 5
Well! If it isn't Lancelot! Let us once again converse in elegance about forbidden love together! Though now... I suddenly feel as though all eyes are upon us...
Conversation 6
My friend. My brethren. I never would have thought to find him in such a position... But that is simply who Lancelot is. Allow me then, at least, to send him off with an elegy.
Conversation 7
Ah, sir Gawain. It is truly fortuitous that we gather under the same banner once again. If I am with you, who is like the incarnation of sunlight, then I have very little to fear.
Conversation 8
Mordred...you're as vicious as ever. The sight of you snapping at everything reminds me of a wolf... No, a wolf is too cool to describe you. Maybe a python...a snapping turtle...ah yes, a soft-shelled snapping turtle! That's what you are like! ...Okay, I'll apologize, so please put down Clarent.
Conversation 9
Gareth...so you've come too. I pray that your hands will never get dirty. I swear this time... Hm. I may have said something strange. Please forget what I said. I will forget it too.
Conversation 10
Bedivere. The loyal knight, the soldier with the silver arm, the conscience of the Round Table, the man who acts as the straight man of the Round Table... Your presence here is reassuring. Oh no, that final description of you was just my Round Table joke.
Conversation 11
Come again? You want to sing while I strum my harp? Well, I don't mind, but what kind of song would you like me to play? "Love is a Dracul"? Fine, I shall play it. But before I start, would you mind getting some earplugs for me?
Conversation 12
Restless days continue. Allow my harp to bring you at least some solace.
Conversation 13
Sir Percival. Yet another glorious Knight of the Round Table has joined us. That aside, he's picking a fight with me so I'll rise to the challenge. The bastard.

Mordred I, II, and III have been renamed John, Tarou, and Pierre. I had to change them because Mordred found out and I was assaulted with a barrage of Clarents.
About Spiritron Dress Chickens of Luluhawa
I never imagined going out to combat in this outfit. Fate certainly is uncanny. But I cannot let myself get carried away. I must harden my heart in order to keep a tight leash on the other knights, who undoubtedly will let themselves go wild. Phew...honestly, it's tough being a mediator for them...
