==Summary==
Karel is a Sacaen swordmaster who encounters both Eliwood and Roy on their quests to liberate Elibe from the forces that try to conquer it. In his youth, he was feared as the Sword Demon, a bloodthirsty murderer who only sought out satisfying opponents to battle after slaughtering his own family with his prized Wo Dao, which is meant to be held by "only one". He decides to join Eliwood's army, not because of obligation, but rather as a way to find more worthy opponents.
But as the years passed, he reined in his bloodthirst and became revered as the sagacious Sword Saint, lending his sword to Roy's army at the urging of his niece, Fir.
