* Original

**Unferth** (ウンフェルス, *Unferusu*) is a follower of Beowulf from Götaland and participant in the Rosengarten Schlacht.

## History

In his youth, Unferth challenged Beowulf to a duel. In his elder years, he spent most of his time doing paperwork, having not swung a sword in many years. Unferth spent much time using taxpayers' money at cabaret clubs, playing the nipple guessing game.

## Plot

Unferth participates in the Rosengarten Schlacht as part of Beowulf's team alongside Wiglaf. At the start of the qualifiers, he expresses worry that the two of them cannot possibly fight alone but Beowulf reassures him he will lead them to victory. Unferth partakes in the People Course of the qualifiers. Unferth finds and meets one of the false princesses within the castle. He and Rudiger get caught in the crossfire between Arthur Pendragon and Siegfried's battle. Arthur rescues the two of them from crumbling debris only for both of them to be turned into women by Siegfried shortly after, passing out after orgasming. He and the rest of the course contestants are disqualified after Yamato Takeru kills all the false princesses, rendering the objective incompletable

After Wiglaf secures a placement for their team, Unferth expresses worry about having to fight in the main event. After an Exhibition Match, the main event begins, starting with Beowulf's team versus Yamato Takeru's. The event begins with Wiglaf battling Tsuchigumo first and being quickly defeated. Unferth panics believing they have already lost since he will be unable to win the battle required for their team to advance. Beowulf believes Unferth can still fight and returns Hrunting to him, the weight of the sword causing Unferth to fall back into the arena. Unferth faces off against Orochi for the second match. Just as it appears Orochi has defeated Unferth in a single blow, Unferth manages to unsheathe his sword and activate its power, causing Orochi to orgasm uncontrollably and incapacitating her. Unferth's personality reverts to that of his you as he claims victory for his team.

## Equipment & Abilities

**Hrunting** (聖剣(フルンチング),, *Furunchingu*): A magical sword with the increase its target's sexual sensitivity, allowing Unferth to easily induce an orgasm in the target. The blade's true form is a giant vibrator, changing shape to that of a penis. Though it was originally Unferth's sword, Beowulf temporarily returns it to Unferth for his battle in the Rosengarten Schlacht. Beowulf claims only Unferth is able to use the sword's true power. When wielded by Unferth, the blade emits electrical-like energy and causes his hair to turn spiky, resembling thunderbolts.

**Shield**: Unferth carries a shield with him.

## Original Inspiration

In the Old English epic poem Beowulf, Unferth is a thegn of the Danish lord Hrothgar. He appears fives times in the poem — four times by the name 'Hunferð' and once by the appellation "the son of Eclafes". The name Unferth does not appear in any Old English manuscript outside of the Nowell Codex, which contains Beowulf, and the meaning of the name is disputed. Several scholarly theories about Unferth have been proposed. Unferth is also the name of a character in the modern novel Grendel by John Gardner, based upon the Beowulf epic.
