“Last round, lads! I swear it!”

Boon companion of the Warrior of Darkness, Blanhaerz met Arbert when the lad was but a stumbling adventurer of not yet twenty summers. Unable to abandon Arbert to his fate, the Roegadyn (?) gave him counsel, and it was not long before the two became inseparable. Blanhaerz has always been known for his love of the drink, but since seeing his fortieth nameday, the man’s tastes have grown more refined...and expensive. Where before, a barrel of sour ale would keep him happy for a night, his eyes now stray to the top of the tender’s shelves. Indeed, the money the band earns would vanish at the tavern were it not for Lamimi’s watchful eye.

Branden, also known by his alias "Blanhaerz," or as the Knight of Darkness, was one of the five Warriors of Light of the First. On his world, he was known as the most loyal knight of Voeburt, personal bodyguard to princess Sauldia and, together with his comrades, vanquished the Ascian Mitron and caused the Flood of Light. Alongside his friends, he gave his life to come to the Source and attempted to bring about the Eighth Umbral Calamity. After returning to his world, he became the sin eater Dikaiosyne.
