A knight who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. He is a Dark Knight, an elite warrior within the great military forces of the kingdom of Baron, and serves as captain of the Red Wings, Baron's airship fleet. He is a serious man, and suffers from grave doubts about the cruel actions his king demands in pursuit of the Crystals, and his own choice to wield the power of darkness. When he reveals these doubts to the king, he is stripped of his duty as captain of the Red Wings. Filled with despair, he sets out to Mist Valley to subjugate the Eidolons which live there - the last order he will ever take from his king.

Background Story

3★	A knight who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. He is a Dark Knight, an elite warrior within the great military forces of the kingdom of Baron, and serves as captain of the Red Wings, Baron's airship fleet. He is a serious man, and suffers from grave doubts about the cruel actions his king demands in pursuit of the Crystals, and his own choice to wield the power of darkness. When he reveals these doubts to the king, he is stripped of his duty as captain of the Red Wings. Filled with despair, he sets out to Mist Valley to subjugate the Eidolons which live there - the last order he will ever take from his king.
4★	A knight who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. He served as a Dark Knight in the great military forces of the kingdom of Baron, but ultimately found himself unable to obey the cruel orders of his king, who sought the Crystals for himself. After turning his back on his kingdom, he sets out with a new group of allies—including his beloved Rosa, and Rydia, a girl he met in the village of Mist—to try to stop Golbez, his replacement in the Red Wings, from gaining the Crystals. Through this journey he finally lets go of his doubts and is reborn as a Sacred Paladin.
5★	A knight who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. While journeying to protect the Crystals from the sorcerer Golbez, he experiences betrayal from his closest friend, the forging of new friendships, and the pain of final farewells. He grows stronger throughout these trials, even after the shock of learning his true identity as a descendant of the Lunarians and the brother of none other than Golbez himself. With the support of his allies, who have shared so many joys and pains with him, he commits himself fully to the battle for the future of the Blue Planet.
6★	A paladin who appears in the tales of a blue planet watched over by two moons. It was not until Cecil reached a turning point on Mount Ordeals that he finally laid to rest the doubts that had been clouding his mind. Upon reaching the summit, a mysterious voice calling him "my son" bade him to cast off his part as a dark knight. Cecil vanquished his former self and was miraculously transformed into a paladin.

Fusion

3★	I will take the path I believe in. Even if I must turn against my king. I cannot lie to myself!
4★	The dark sword... Never again will I lift it! I will not depend on those dark arts!
5★	I feel as though I have the blessing of the moon itself... Now is the time!
6★	I am not alone. That must be the reason behind this surge of power.

Awakening

4★	I must atone for the wrongs I have committed. For this reason and more, I must continue to grow stronger...
5★	I mustn't lose! I cannot let down the people who have stood with me!
6★	Justice and retribution are but trifling things. There are victories of greater worth. That mysterious, yet familiar voice spoke thus...

Summon

3★	If you need help, I will offer my blade. Such is the duty of a knight.
4★	If you have something, someone you would protect...I would offer my aid. Let me journey with you.
5★	Were it not for my friends, I would have been lost long ago. Now it is my turn to help you.
6★	As long as you follow a righteous path, I shall serve as your shield!

Trust Mastery
