Edgar

Edgar is a Bashai who once served as Luna Nox's bodyguard before being exiled from Nihil's Throne. After the events of the Great Void, he attempts to look for Luna Nox while taking part in the Great Bashai War where he gained infamy and was labeled a threat level S Bashai. At some point in time, Veneris Raged]] and Ein were dispatched to eliminate Edgar in Rucco Town. The full details of the operation are unknown but Edgar managed to kill Veneris and take his identity. He uses the Orca Unit's intelligence to locate Luna Nox, tricks the player SoulWorker into assisting him, and is able to successfully flee with Luna Nox. He forms the Army of Dark Blue with Luna Nox and sends a challenge letter to the SoulWorkers. He first appears a boss in Rucco Town and reappears as a raid boss in Lunar Fall.

## Background

Edgar was once a famed knight captain in Nihil's Throne and was chosen by Xe Nox to become Luna Nox's bodyguard. Upon seeing the princess, Edgar falls in love with Luna and attempts to make her smile. He ends up dressing up as clown and was accused of abusing his authority to gather toys and candy for Luna Nox. Eventually, Xe Nox confronts him about his erratic behavior and banishes Edgar from Nihil's Throne. Edgar is supposedly banished since Bashai factions are generally collectively-minded and having exception would be detriment to the kingdom.

However, the Great Void occurs and Edgar is separated from Luna Nox. Without Edgar's assistance, Luna was captured by Henryk and was used as the experiment base for the SoulDreg Queen project. Edgar ends up taking part of the Great Bashai War in search of Luna where he gains infamy for his abilities. At some point, Edgar ends up in Rucco and creates a mannequin army. Due to the threat, Veneris and Ain were dispatched to eliminate Edgar but Edgar was able to kill Veneris and assume his identity. But, Edgar remains in Rucco Town for some time as he encounters a former SinWorker.

In the former SinWorker stories, Edgar appears to kill Kairon before he escapes and gives a letter to the SoulWorker about his plans. The SoulWorker reaches the Tower of Greed and defeats the leader of the Mannequin Corps,King Waynagon. Edgar appears at his defeat,questions what he was doing, and shows a lack of interest for King Waynagon's desires. Ultimately, King Waynagon is killed by Edgar and gives the the SoulWorker a challenge letter. The SoulWorker was able to defeat Edgar but gives a message that they will meet again on a grander stage in the future. Edgar is assumed to be deceased by the Starry Forest League as they believed he perished in the rubble.

Afterwards, he assumes Veneris's identity and gathers information about Luna Nox. He steps forward to the Grace City forces as a member of the mysterious Orca Unit and comes along with the SoulWorker to negotiate with Aaron to assist the Western War effort. As Veneris, Edgar gives information that the SoulDreg Queen and Henrky might be in Dipluce Horizon and aids the Candus City with the expedition. During this time, Edgar works the members of the Starry Forest League to bone where Aaron and Shade claim that he was working the members too quickly and he was merciless towards dissenters. When the dissenters escape, he sends several Bashai claiming to from the Blue Clown to kill off the dissenters and refocus the Starry Forest League's efforts towards finding the SoulDreg Queen. Afterwards, Edgar explains several facts about Bashai as Veneris and interrogates Arua for information. Eventually, the group makes way towards the Unholy Catherdal where he comes along with player SoulWorker to help assist against Nathan. However, Nathan abandons Henryk and the two were able to encounter the SoulDreg Queen. Chloe relays to the SoulWorker that the Veneris is an imposter. Edgar reveals himself, thanking the player for fulfilling their role as expected, and reunites with Luna Nox. Luna was unable to recognize Edgar at first and was able to escape with Luna using a Temptation Stone that he brought alongside him. As a result, the Dipluce Horizon operation ended as a complete failure. Ultimately, the Starry Forest League learns that Edgar had assumed Veneris's identity during the time that Veneris and Ain were dispatched to eliminate him.

As part of the negotiation with Sola Nox's forces, the Starry Forest League once again pursues Edgar and Luna Nox. The SoulWorker Unit is tasked with the role and Edgar sends multiple challenges to the Unit stating that they will not kill the SoulWorkers if they lose but would force them to join the Army of Dark Blue. The unit was able to defeat the Army but Edgar and Luna escape once more with his Tempter's Stone. The Starry Forest League was able to obtain a signal from his stone after it's usage but is unable to pursue him any further due to the Firestream Battalion's threat towards Grace City. He is currently hiding somewhere in the Northern Grace area after their defeat allowing Luna to recover.
