Characters Currently Played In-Game The Luminary (luminatus)
Basic Character Information:
Canon Name: Suikoden
Name: Yuber
Age: Unknown (immortal, at least 300+)
Canon Point: After teleporting away from Geddoe at the Ceremonial Site in Suikoden III
Canon Information: https://www.gensopedia.org/w/Yuber
In-Game Information:
Familiar Choice: https://www.gensopedia.org/w/Bone_Dragon A Bone Dragon. Same type of being as his old servant but the Avalon familiar is a bit smaller at full size and not as old.
Magic Choice: Healing
Inventory (5 personal items): Aside from his suit and fedora he'll have:
-King Crimson: A pair of extremely sharp longswords that are able to collapse back into their hilts. Yuber keeps these hilts tucked in his sleeves. He can extend them out to their longsword length or retract them to use as small blades.
-Suit of Armor: Consisting of a black breastplate, greaves, leggings, gauntlets, spiked pauldrons and a horned visor that covers the upper part of his face.
-The Eight-Tasseled Rune (or, as the fandom usually calls it, the Eightfold Rune, though Eight-Tasseled is likely more accurate. It's never had an official English name): One of the 27 True Runes that govern Yuber's world. In Avalon it has no power and is completely dormant but it's still lodged inside his body. If he were to go into a meditative state he could still feel it but it does nothing and has no response.

Q1: You've been stranded on a desert island with only one standard-size travel suitcase. If you could only have 3 items in that suitcase, what would you want those items to be and why?
I would first have to wonder how I came to be stranded. The fabric of reality itself is mine to bend and I can go wherever I wish.
...If you are referring to my person here in Avalon then perhaps I would indeed be trapped but I still have no answer. I've better things to do with my time than answer absurd hypotheticals.
Q2: Tell us about a defining event in your life that you think influenced who you are today.
No.
[He doesn't think he has a good answer to this question either. Humans have funny ways of changing in response to external stimuli but he's always been what he is, as far back as he can remember. When his consciousness first fired up he was already mad with blood lust... Sometimes he feels a slight prick of something that is not quite a memory; something in his black heart left behind from another existence. Trying to remember back that far is as pointless as a human trying to remember the womb.]
Q3: What does family mean to you and who do you consider a part of your family?
A family is a unit of humans living together, usually consisting of a parent or guardian and a younger generation. I've heard the term used to suggest a group of humans sharing a close personal bond as well.
I have no family and am bonded to nobody. The closest I may have is Pesmerga, who constantly seeks to stand before me in battle and who shares my...
[Face. Soul? Essence?]
...It's not important.
We're not brothers, that's too small a word.
Q4: Tell me about a time you were involved in a personal conflict (not a physical fight). What would you do differently to resolve it?
Any personal conflict I have had has resulted in a physical fight. I only wish I had killed the leader of the New State Army when I'd had the chance. I don't know how... At the time my power seemed...insufficient for the task.
I wish I'd been more prepared, I wish I'd crushed that loathsome Rune and its host when I had them in my sight.
Q5: Do you have any regrets? If so, what are the biggest ones? If not, what is something you wish you had gotten to do back home?
I believe I just told you one. Are we talking in circles now?
I regret not killing that Rune. I regret not being strong enough to tilt the balance of my world towards chaos. I regret not being strong enough to resist being pulled to Avalon and losing so much of myself...
My only other regret is this conversation. It's become tiresome and I grow bored. Leave me be.
