Player 1 is the main protagonist of The Trail. He is controlled by the player throughout the game, except for a few select parts.

## Appearance

### The Trail

Player 1 is a young white male appearing to be around the age of 17-20. He has green eyes. His hair is light brown, parted in the front and sticking out in the back.

At the beginning of the game, Player 1 wears the garbs of a traveler. The garbs in question are brown and black, featuring brown boots, brown gloves, and a belt with a golden buckle. After receiving his first set of equipment from the Village Headman, he begins to sport a suit of armor, and remains wearing it throughout nearly the entire rest of the game. The suit of armor is made of a gray metal, sporting a gold trim along the welds of the metal plates. Player 1 also wears a blue cape with golden trim along with the armor.

Player 1 tends to frown most of the time. However, certain conditions may put a smile on his face.

### The Trail (Legacy Version)

In the legacy version of The Trail, Player 1 has a similar appearance, albeit some slight changes. His hair remains a light brown, but it is messier than before, with no part in the front and it hanging straight down in the back.

His suit of armor and traveler garbs are not present at all in the legacy version. Instead, they are replaced with a simple blue sweater. Player 1 wears gray sweatpants and shoes along with the sweater. His signature goggles have a red band instead of a black band.

Due to the lower-quality graphics in the legacy version, there are no facial expressions at all.

## Personality

One of the most notable aspects of Player 1's personality is that he tends to speak very little throughout the entire game. Except for some special cases, he doesn't visibly speak at all without player input. It is assumed that he does speak more than is shown in-game, which is the only way that he would be able to tell other characters stories, give the team orders during battle, etc.

## Combat

Player 1 begins the game as the Traveler class, which has quite low stats and no skills. However, before even the Mini Green Slime battle, he becomes a Knight, his class throughout the rest of the game.

His initial level is 1.

### Role in Combat

Player 1 is a knight, meaning he's able to dish out damage and soak up a lot of physical hits. He has the highest base defense of all four party members and gets equipment suited to this.

#### Strengths

Player 1 has very high defense and HP, plus an impressive attack stat, allowing him to tank a lot of damage and dish out heavy hits against enemies with low defense. While not hitting numbers as high as Player 4's, he still has the ability to do a respectable amount of damage.

#### Weaknesses

He has abysmally low magic defense, meaning that magic attacks will severely damage him. His agility is also very low, meaning that he will usually go last in battle.

### Skills

Player 1's skills are suited specifically to his role as the tank and secondary physical damage dealer.

### Stats

Player 1's highest stats are his MHP, ATK, and DEF. His MMP and INT are mid-range, while his MDF and AGI are quite low. His MAT remains at 1 across all levels.

Note that these are his base stats per-level without any modifiers, such as equipment or status effects.
