Valen

"In my line of work, you can't afford to be careless. What separates victory and defeat is often determined by the swing of a blade." 
Valen is a popular patron at every tavern in Esperia. He's handsome, charming, and generous with drinks. Although his banter and bar-side behavior are often criticized by his more conservative peers, this hardly bothers him. As such, people rarely associate this attractive young man with the stereotypical image of a traditional knight—which is exactly what Valen wants. As a member of the secretive Heroic Order, his unusual behavior is the perfect disguise for gathering intel. However, when met with lawbreakers, Valen is quick to cast off this facade and display his superb swordsmanship in the name of justice. This is his own personal form of chivalry.
