Jacquard's story

Jacquard, the Illusion Knight
Jacquard, the Illusion Knight

Jacquard was born an incarnation of Kundun and came from a line of gladiators. He was a gifted swordsman, yet nobody counted him as a Magic Gladiator because he could not use magic or a magic sword. During training one day he raised his empty left hand to block a blow, and an illusion of his blade appeared in it. He trained this gift until he could copy his weapons, and even himself, at will, and soon won Kundun's trust.

On Kundun's secret order he broke the barrier of Blood Castle. Sent next to spy on Lemuria's troops near the Lost Tower, he was attacked and found himself fighting completely alone. Badly hurt, he fled deep into the tower, decided Kundun had thrown him away, cut his way out and finally killed the Balrog, lord of the Lost Tower. He left soaked in its blood, set on revenge against Kundun.
