Ethan, the Stonebearer is a human, the first owner of the Stone of Cold Fire in a long time, a member of the Upper World Assassin faction, and the main deuteragonist the 1'st season of GenVera Univers. He first appeared in Defeat the Night, and his voice-over debuted in Inspired, performed by amateur voice-actor Sancho.

Ethan began as a young and inquisitive boy from the village of Naftali in the Upper World, learning the blacksmith's trade. His parents, who had their own forge, insisted that he study various documents and archives that would record information about the various weapons ever created, including magical weapons. After their deaths, however, Ethan, in addition to studying blacksmithing, began studying martial arts. By the time he was 17, he had become quite an accomplished fighter, and at 19 he had already joined the Assassin's Guild.

One day, Ethan was walking through the woods and came across a band of wither-skeletons who were going somewhere. Out of curiosity he decides to follow them, he finds that they have gathered near some old portal. He knew that such creatures would do no good to mankind, so he decided on principle to deal with them. After the massacre, he saw a trunk containing a book, the reason the wither-skeletons were here, and thinking it a valuable artifact he took it with him.

When he returned home, he spent months scrutinizing the book and its contents, hiding it from public view, however, after a while he was forced to leave his home because of a large-scale invasion of the wither.

From the territories of the Upper World, he moved to the Down World, where he stumbled upon a settlement with a bar, where he was assisted. But there, too, he was soon overtaken by his pursuer, who paid for the arrival with his life.

So as not to put the inhabitants of the settlement at risk, Ethan set out on his wanderings, in which he fought a wild demon and met new allies.

Now Ethan embarks on a journey with Gen and Enderina, helping to stop Nether's conquest against the Upper and Down Worlds.

## Personality

*"Curious and capable man, the only keeper of the Stone of Cold Fire."*

### Season 1: The Union Of Four Races

#### *Defeat the Night*

As Ethan strolls through the streets of his village of Naftali in the late evening, wishing once again to read the wither-book and experiment with making weapons based on what is written in it, he heads towards the family forge, where he usually prefers to study the various writings. Ethan had already begun the process of reading, but noticing that another man was nearby, he was forced to interrupt the process and return home to maintain stealth.

Along the way, at an intersection, he saw a man who was thrown aside by a stranger striding pathologically in his direction. Seeing him, Ethan decided to defend the unarmed man from the hostile stranger, who turned out to be the wither-skeleton Kamefaros, but underestimated his opponent and was wounded in the leg and soon disarmed and fell to the ground. His Garnet saber, which he had inherited, plunged into the ground a few meters away from him. His opponent, using a telekinetic spell, attempted to take the wither-book from Ethan, and despite his resistance managed to do so. However, another artifact fell out of the book, the Stone of Cold Fire, which Ethan had read a great deal about, and which allowed him to escape from the battlefield and save his life.

Ethan was lucky, and the Chaotic teleportation of the stone transported him from the Upper World, to the safety of the Down World, where he was able to take refuge for a while.

#### *Believe*

After resting and catching his breath, he walked to the nearest building, which turned out to be Busa's and Nate's bar, entered the room, and collapsed unconscious on the floor.

Ethan woke up after a week's sleep due to the effects of the wither-poison. He was greeted by the owners of the Bar, who treated him in time. Ethan told them what had happened to him, they chatted, and afterwards Ethan stated that he intended to return to the Upper World so as not to endanger the locals, and to report the invasion of the wither-skeletons to the High Command - the Leaders of the 4 Unions.

However, his plans were not destined to come to fruition. Because Ethan had the Stone of Cold Fire, and the enemy had a book containing many different spellsa and the new owner of the book was able to track the boy down and attack from behind, injuring one of the Bar's owners. While Busa was denying medical attention to Nate and calling for backup, Ethan took the fight to the withering skeleton, having borrowed her katana beforehand.

However, his actions proved to be even and Ethan was once again flung to the ground, and was on the verge of death, but was rescued by one of the Demon Hunters, named Jeff.

While the Demon and the Hunter fought, Ethan attempted to distract Kamefaros, but was wounded in the face and was thrown inside the Bar by his adversary. Smashing the doors, Ethan flew on, shattering the bar counter. He began to lose consciousness, but Busa ran up to him in time, bringing the Stone of Cold Fire. Ethan had nothing to lose, and he used the power of the artifact to clothe his opponent.
At the end of the battle, Kamefaros was frozen and his body shattered into many pieces of ice. Because of the effects of the stone, Ethan fell unconscious, and remained in that state for some time. He was carried to the bar, where he lay down and regained consciousness.

#### *Alive*

Later Ethan talked to Busa again, talked to Jeff, and borrowed the iron saber to leave, but feeling guilty about Nate's injuries and his new friends, Ethan decided to wait until Nate woke up.
A few days later, Nate woke up, and Ethan was able to leave with a relieved soul.

After two days of trekking through the dense forest, he almost crossed the border of the Down World, but was distracted by a flash of bright light. Curiosity got the better of him, and he ran in its direction to check that everything was normal there.

When he ran out into the clearing, he saw two demons fighting.
One was wild and was fighting using pyromantic skills, while the other looked quite reasonable and wielded the same Garnet saber that Ethan had lost when he first met Kamefaros, in Naftali.

Before he could do anything about it, Ethan was stunned by a demon flying in him, thrown by another and followed and his saber.
The demon who called himself Luminor saved Ethan's life from the saber flying at him, and Ethan, assessing the situation, decided to unite with him to defeat the wild demon.

But even united, the usual battle was not very successful, and Ethan once again had to use the magic of the Stone of Cold Fire to defeat the Wild Demon.
In the end, the demon was defeated, but Luminor was badly injured in the battle from the final explosion, and Ethan had to help him.

#### *Numb*

Chronologically, during this action, the wandering Gen and Enderina came into the clearing, and he had a long dialogue with them.

#### *Inspired*

Ethan told the two incoming Leaders of the 4 Unions about everything that had happened to him: about finding the wither book with the Stone of Cold Fire, studying it closely and the subsequent enemy attack on the village of Naftali; the use of the stone, fleeing to the Down World and the subsequent arrival at the Busa's and Nate's Bar; the pursuit and massacre with Kamefaros and the subsequent journey, meeting with Luminor and a clash with the Magmatical demon.

Suddenly, another arriving Magmatical demon intervened in the conversation. Gen and Enderina engaged him in battle while Ethan remained to guard and care for the wounded Luminor.
After massacring one of the demons, Enderina moved Ethan and Luminor to safety while Gen covered the retreat and held back the onslaught of the newly arrived demon, as well as his undefeated comrade.

## Abilities

*"A young and very curious lucky boy."*

Like any assassin, Ethan has good fighting skills. He uses pointed weapons in combat, preferring medium-heavy sabers, but he can also fight with light katanas if necessary.

He's not as good at hand-to-hand combat as he is at swordfights, but with artifacts like the Stone of Cold Fire, he can defeat serious and more experienced opponents.

In his case, it is the Stone of Cold Fire that gives him his superhuman abilities: strength, survivability, speed, and magical cryomancy skills. Thanks to the stone, as a bonus, Ethan can also use teleportation.

## Trivia

* Ethan's skin is largely based on Levi Ackerman from the anime Attack on Titan.
* Ethan is one of the most curious characters of the GenVera's Universe.
* Probably his name is based on a mincraft-animator from the YouTube platform called EthanAnimatez.
