Sannon Hamasaki

浜崎サンノン Hamasaki Sannon, The Chosen Child (選ばれし子 Erabareshi Ko)

**Sannon Hamasaki** (浜崎サンノン, *Hamasaki Sannon*) is an Earthling who was transported to Far through unknown means. Prior to his summoning, his younger sister died in a car accident, leaving him with mild trauma, as well as a strong desire to protect those around him, yet installs fear in him, turning him into a coward as he grows older.

When he arrives on Far, however, he is not able to vividly recall anything prior to his summoning. After joining up with Marz, a girl he met shortly after arriving on Far, they enroll at The Academy in hopes of attaining their own goals. After defeating Matzu and "The Priest", Sannon and Marz, along with their classmates Hugh Staples, Radimir Davis and Lynn Asmodeus decide to begin their revolution against "The Veil", the mysterious king of Myrrh. Through many trials and tribulations, the pair travels throughout many countries and islands and eventually reaches Chelonia, an ancient nation housing Chelonians, creatures who were thought to be extinct after their sudden disappearance many centuries ago. Upon arriving on Chelonia, he trains with King Dale in an effort to be able to face The Veil. However, after The Veil's final invasion of Chelonia--taking place half a year after their arrival--he dies in an effort to secure a victory for his fellow comrades.

## Background

When Sannon turned five-years-old, his sister, Nao, died in a car accident on the way home from his birthday party. Sannon, along with his family, was very distraught, and these emotions carried over when he was summoned to Far after King Henry used The Device upon the arrival of The Veil during The Great Chelonian War.

After flying through the air unconscious for a couple of minutes, Sannon crashed into the back of one of the Quincunx sent by King Henry during the aftermath of The Great Chelonian War. They land and attract the attention of Matzu Zhang, who was in the middle of finishing The Barracks for Waza Academy. After making his way through the forest of the Quincunx and defeating various Chelonians, he stumbles upon the five-year-olds laying on the ground, one unconscious (Sannon) and the other sobbing (Marz).

He takes both of them into The Barracks, but by the time they arrive, Marz had fallen asleep. Unlike Marz, Sannon does not awake for several days, as his Endocarmedia is still developing but when he does, he is very calm and doesn't wonder where he is at all, as opposed to Marz, who isolates herself for several days.

Several years later, after Waza Academy has been completed, Marz and Sannon decide to further their goal by enrolling in Waza Academy.

## Personality

Prior to the death of his sister, Nao, Sannon was a very happy and care-free child, always eager to try new things. However, when his sister died, Sannon's eyes were opened to the true nature of reality, and he began to fear it. Yet, he also developed a strong desire to protect those around him as to prevent something like death to never happen again.

After being summoned to Far, Sannon's fear grows as he is thrust into a whole other world, and he becomes very meek. This fear and timidness are shown most prominently during sparing sessions, in which Sannon will promptly back away and try to avoid it. Over time, however, he becomes less fearful and more outgoing, and by his graduation, he has reached a stable state of confidence

Due to the death of his sister, Nao, Sannon constantly aims to protect those that are important to him, often getting very angry or disturbed when things don't favor his ideology. More on this later.

Despite being terrified, Sannon surprisingly goes to great lengths at times in order to protect those important to him, a prime example being his sacrifice for Marz during the final battle against The Veil on Chelonia. He jumped in front of an attack that should have killed Marz, and he spat blood all over The Veil, which soaked into him, granting Sannon complete control over him.

As stated previously, Sannon is often angered or disturbed at those who oppose, belittle, or ignore his ideologies, such as when him and Marz staged a revolution to gather worthy followers for their new movement, The New Resistance. He is happy that some join but to those who do not, he turns sours and is stopped by Marz before he can curse the crowd. For this particular event, he is so angry because they will not help him fight the monster who took Luciana away from him.
