Description
Born in 969 Y.C. in Ziro Village within the Gildllan Empire, Bastien Forge witnessed his village's destruction during the War of Succession. This pivotal event drove him to join the imperial army. Through dedicated service, he rose through the ranks to attain the prestigious position of Alpha, earning the moniker "Black Wolf" for his formidable combat prowess.

He possesses a tall stature, dirty-tan skin, grey eyes, and black hair featuring a distinctive white braid on the left side, tied into a small ponytail. Bastien wears emperor-colored armor plates, scaled mail covering exposed areas, a large blue-violet scarf, and a loincloth; both the scarf and loincloth bear signs of damage suggesting extensive battlefield use.

His personality is intensely serious and mission-focused. He rarely displays emotion or humor, often appearing socially detached. However, he occasionally reveals unexpected concern, such as questioning Hugo Simon about confronting former instructor Lisette Regnier. Bastien holds deep respect for the nobility inherent in his Alpha rank.

As an Alpha, his presence commands significant fear among Federation soldiers. He operates alongside August Wallenstein and Alexandra von Sonne, supporting the empire's objectives even when they conflict with his personal beliefs. During the Third Lunne Battle, Bastien engaged Federation forces, specifically clashing with Lisette Regnier as part of the imperial campaign to reclaim the city.

In combat, Bastien wields a katana, employing deliberate, powerful strikes: a downward slash, a lunging thrust, and a punch emitting a dark shockwave. His unique ability, Tokoyami, consumes a portion of his health to enter an enhanced state. This state amplifies his attacks with darkness, extends their range, and grants temporary superarmor. Within it, he can fire a darkness blast or create a knockdown-inducing wall of darkness. He also utilizes swift upward or downward slash counterattacks.

His birthday is February 9.
