An amnesiac who was adopted by the Schwarzer Family. He goes to Thors Military Academy to find his path in life, not wanting to burden his adoptive family.
He gains the ability to draw on a latent power, during which his hair turns white and his eyes red. At the end of Cold Steel I he becomes an "Awakener" (pilot) of a Divine Knight, known as The Ashen Knight, Valimar. In Cold Steel II he learns to control his power to some degree and grows as the awakener of Valimar, defeating the legendary demon End of Vermillion alongside Crow and Ordine, The Azure Knight. He soon learns that he is Osborne's son, however, and uses Valimar to work with the Iron Bloods, and becomes known throughout the empire as the hero who stopped the civil war and defends the newly gained territory of Crossbell from invaders, the Ashen Chevalier.
