Jeto Koe

**Jeto Koe** is a protagonist of the Twine game ALOALOCA. He is a Vivada-born Head of House born with a multi-generation disease that inhibits the growth of cells in the body. He is the father of twin sisters Iss and Ai and Amercir and is a sound swordsman. He is known as Father and the One-Armed Speed due to his fast movements in combat with just one arm.

## Personality and Traits

Jeto carries himself calmly, without any haste despite the speed of his movements in battle. Although he is stern and takes things very seriously, he is also very forgiving and can take a joke or two, usually responding with a cynical or sarcastic remark. He tends to be naive toward some of the lifestyles of those outside of Vivada but can be understanding. He has a fondness for the teachings of his parents and being patient with those who make mistakes.

## Appearance and Equipment

Jeto wears a traditional kimono top with flared pants. His jacket is an olive green with a yellow pattern. He wears a belted shoulder pad where his left arm used to be, connected with small chains that cross his chest. The sleeve of his missing arm is fastened to the back of his jacket, loose and flowing toward the end. A sheath rests at his left side embellished with a print similar to his jacket.

Jeto's hair is long and black, brushed back at the top into a tail that separates over his head resembling horns. He has a thin, black mustache. His physique is bony and his brown eyes have dark circles beneath them due to sickness.

His weapon of choice is a katana known as Silent RITE. The hilt is adorned with scale-like bead pattern; the blade itself is darkened a shimmering black with a coal-burning ritual.

## Story

### True Path

Jeto begins his story traveling from Vivada into the city of Cos to search for his daughters, who have been rumored to have murdered their own brother. Following his pursuit is a conspiracy of an event known as the blood allum, described on the news as an outbreak of aggression within average citizens, leading to murderous outcomes. To help find police records of his daughters and any information of the blood allum, Jeto decides to visit his old friend DOA who is a bus driver on the route to his home.

In front of his friend's favorite coffee shop, he sees a younger man wtih a strange aura. Compelled to approach him, he discovers the man's name to be Shin Tonic, and is immediately proposed a fight. Defeating him only posed as a distraction. As DOA was no longer found at the shop, Jeto pursued other obvious places he could have been but did not find him.

Deciding to uncover clues at his daughters' apartment, he sees a strange woman standing right before their doorway. He asks for her name, but she refused to answer until he defeated her in battle. During their clash, Jeto noticed the woman had transformative abilities, causing her skin to vein up and her eyes to blacken. Angering her with his swift movements, she throws him off by showing him an odd vision of a black bulbous figure pulsating as well as his daughters murdering their brother, eyes blackened like that of the woman. Trying his best to keep his composure, Jeto defeats the woman, and she reveals herself simply as Opera.

Feeling weakened by his battles and mentally by the imagery seen, Jeto tries to pick up the pace by visiting the FDCD in order to ask the doctors if they know of the blood allum. Inquiring led him to his meeting with doctor Akeris Jay who was fired for his shady experiments. Admitting to his involvement with a strange experiment he calls ALOALOCA, he further explains to Jeto that he created a chemical compound that was meant to inhibit the ego from interupting the activity of the cerebral hemispheres, effectively removing what causes conflict in a person's mind. After Jeto's rebuke of Akeris' ambitions, Akeris felt no choice but to prove his point with a quick bout.

After defeating the doctor, Jeto was given a red serum as an apology. Akeris claimed that the serum was "meant for the human body to accelerate growth without decay" but in Jeto's current sickly condition, it would simply "normalize" his cell growth. Taking the draught, Jeto parted with Akeris with one final clue to his next destination: Center Sheeka, who had bought the research Akeris worked on for the sake of buying an engagement ring for his ex-girlfriend. Soon after consuming the serum, Jeto falls into a deep sleep, awakening in his mind's eyes by a transparent silhouette. The ghostly figure seems to have been keeping tabs on Jeto's activities and claimed to have decided to abandon him. He awakes soon after subconsciously knowing where his daughters currently are.

Pilentum Memorialis, a park at the left center of the city of Cos was Jeto's next destination. By the statue where his wife was buried stood his daughters Iss and Ai. Although they seemed disturbed by his appearence, he wasted little time in asking what they have done to Amercir. Admitting bluntly to their deeds, the sisters were ready to defend themselves to the end, and with that came a battle between family.

## Battle Style and Abilities

Jeto's battle style is reminiscent of a samurai, charging in with quick cuts and staggering his opponents with the force of his strikes. He stands straight and holds his katana downward but is able to change stances for a more enduring approach.

He is a speed-type fighter whose victory is dependant on long, fast combos and avoiding full blows.
