Ever since the coal mines began to run dry, young people gradually left Belltaine and headed for Constant and Backlund. The atmosphere here has become more and more oppressive, and the city is just declining by the day.

 — **Biles** to his group
on *Lord of Mysteries*, Chapter 1281

**Biles** is a  Beyonder of the Tyrant Pathway and part of Roy's four-man group of unaffiliated Beyonders. He is a Loen soldier who participated in the defense of Belltaine City during the World War. Due to being a Belltaine native and a standard foreigner, **Biles** became the key to stopping 0-02.

## Appearance

A Loen man, who was less than thirty years old, had also been a miner when he was young. His skin was tanned from all the labor. His exposed muscles weren’t too exaggerated, but it gave people the feeling that they were made of steel.

## Personality

Even when feeling afraid against the graphical horrors brought by 0-02, **Biles** would muster the courage to face it. He is also right-handed.

## Background

Before the war broke out, **Biles** often saw his mother busying herself around the coal stove when he came back from the mines. His father and brother either made use of the time to do some repairs or help to handle the spoiled parts of the fruit and vegetables. They did some of the work that could be taken home. His young niece learned the alphabet from old newspapers under the guidance of her mother while she put together matchstick boxes. Although such a life was tough and didn’t have any ability to avoid risks, it was still a wonderful memory for **Biles**. It was many times better than the dark mine paths, heavy ores, and the whipping from the supervisors.

In Belltaine City, **Biles** rarely had the chance to go to the municipal square, an except was being recruited into the Loen army. He and Roy had participated in the defense of Belltaine City before. Their four-man group had witnessed the deaths of many of their friends and obtained supernatural powers due to various reasons. After that, due to the chaos brought about by the war, they either lost contact with their unit, or they avoided it on their own accord without the officials learning about it. Slowly, they got to know each other and became friends with each other due to their common experiences.

**Biles** was acquaintances with a Beyonder retired military, Dr. Weber. His family members definitely numbered more than two or three. He lived in a rental two-bedroom apartment on 18 Maple Street, but that apartment has already collapsed from the blast of an artillery shell.

## History

### Volume 7: The Hanged Man

Roy's group had come to **Biles’s** hometown in Belltaine to seek out any friends and family who might’ve survived. **Roy's** team were visiting a bar in Belltaine City for local information. In Belltaine, they detoured to Weber's private clinic after Phil's hand was severed by the "theft" rule of the Trunsoest Brass Book. At the municipal square, Roy's team met Mr. Magician Merlin Hermes. For a first time meeting gift, Biles made a  to Merlin know where his family is, Arrodes told him to search at the graveheeper's hut of Belltaine Cemetery. Merlin also restored his two-bedroom apartment with a wish.

After the 0-02 ordeal, Merlin used a Historical projection of the marionette Hvin Rambis to seal **Biles'** group's memories concerning 0-02, thereby protecting them from its danger, especially **Biles** who directly touched the uniqueness.

## Abilities

Unlike Roy, Phil, and Pasha who were Beyonders relatively good at fighting, Biles was not. As a local, Biles tacitly held the rear, using his **Scale Armor** to defend against guns. Roy, Biles, and Pasha were more or less people who had been on the battlefield before, therefore, they knew that hesitation was the worst action to take in such situations.
