Tessai

A blacksmith in the town of Kuskus. He is an accomplished blacksmith who pours all his passion into his true calling of forging weapons.

Earnest Blacksmith's Strike

Tessai is a blacksmith who uses a hammer to forge weapons. He is not a warrior, so his fighting style is simple, but one would be foolish to underestimate a blow from his hammer.

Honing a Famed Blade

Tessai's dream was to forge the world's greatest sword. He yearned for that day and night, and finally his chance came. He met Viktor, the owner of the **Celestial Sword**, one of the undisputed greatest swords. Tessai asked to join the New Alliance Army in order to be able to work with the Celestial Sword. His wish was granted, and from then on, he was like a fish in water.

No Hammer No Life

"A blacksmith's life is his hammer" is what Tessai used to say. To forge a good sword, you need a hammer that can match it. Tessai argues that with a good hammer, he can forge better weapons. In fact, by acquiring hammers, the New Alliance Army was able to eventually forge the best weapons possible.
