Role: Bladeseer
Likes: Discreteness, Training
Dislikes: Troublemakers
Alliance: Neutral

A nascent Bladeseer, Albert establishes the party Caeruleum with Alice. Taciturn and inexorably rational, he’s infamous within the Adventurer’s Guild for his willingness to accept any quest. He carries a strange, nameless blade that easily cuts enemies; uniquely, it also functions as a catalyst for incantations.
