Woodstock W, a dwarf guild master commanding the Grandale guild, rose from the ranks of the Black Sword Knights, where his ferocity earned him the moniker "Cannonball." After stepping back from player-killing conflicts by delegating authority to Soujirou and Isaac, he faced accusations of cowardice from the latter, prompting his departure.

He later emerged as a pivotal figure in the Small and Medium Guilds Liaison Committee, using his vast network to champion smaller guilds’ rights. This influence secured him a seat at the Round Table Conference, where he debated governance strategies. During discussions on economic disparity, he opposed coercive redistribution of wealth or crafting expertise, defending large guilds like Grandale as equitable contributors rather than monopolists.

In the third season, he withdrew from the Round Table amid negotiations to launch a wyvern postal network, insisting the venture’s viability hinged on absolute impartiality. This move underscored his pragmatic philosophy of preserving equilibrium within Akiba’s fractious political arena.
