**Brakka** (Japanese: ブラッカ, *Burakka***?**) is a party character in *Harvestella*.

## Biography

**Brakka** is a young man who encounters the  Protagonist during the investigation of the Winter Seaslight. He is well-acquainted with the innkeeper, who he bribes to use the backroom and keep quiet about his whereabouts and activities. He does not agree with how the Seaslight Order conducts itself and agrees to help the Protagonist and Aria with their investigations--for a fee.

## Personality

Brakka is a deeply reserved man who will accept any job for the right fee and then do all in his power to see that job to the end. He is pursuing his own quest of revenge for the murder of his hometown and will not let anyone get in his way. To that end, he is driven and ruthless and does not care if he loses his life in the process, so long as his objective is complete. However, he has a sardonic sense of humor and has been known to smile from time to time, often at something the Protagonist has said or done.

## Appearance

**Brakka** is a young man with brown hair and magenta eyes. He wears a hooded cloak, obscuring his left arm from view.

## Main Story

After two Hallowed, Kierkegaard and Amadeus, destroyed his hometown and the villagers, he sought to seek revenge against them. At some point, he made a home in a secret room in Argene's inn and bribed the innkeeper to keep quiet about it. He also started sneaking into the Seaslight cave to investigate; the Order had little to no success in capturing him. The Protagonist and Aria encounter him while trying to investigate the Seaslight. They later request for him to sneak into the cave without the Order knowing, but he is forced to bail when Shrika and two members of the Order catch them; however, he does rescue them when Kierkegaard, disguised as the Order's Patriarch, has them sentenced to death. The duo later return to ask him for help in investigating the missing villagers and Order, with Shrika, revealed to be Kierkegaard's adoptive daughter, joining them. They eventually find them along with Kierkegaard, who reveals his true colors and motive and that he was only using Shrika and her adoptive brother Sites as tools for his plot. The group defeat him and when Kierkegaard tries to trick Shrika, Brakka, aware of this, warns her of his trickery, so Shrika instead slays her adoptive father. However, Kierkegaard survives and after Brakka unsuccessfully tries to get information out of him, kills him with a weapon that can harm Hallowed.

## Letters

#### Don't forget.

You may be my client, and while I don't have a problem with you turning up at my hideout now and then, I don't want you turning up on my doorstep without a good reason, got it?

Only come to see me if you need me or have a request.

And if you do need to see me, make sure you talk to the innkeeper first. We clear?

#### Correction.

I know I used to tell you to talk to the innkeeper whenever you came by my hideout, but I'd like to amend that. You don't need to do that anymore.

You can even come by if you don't have anything business related. Not that that seemed to stop you before, right? Anyway, I won't argue about it.

Just keep that in mind, yeah?

#### DON'T talk to me.

I'll be hanging out near Lethe Village, but not because I want to see you or anything.

Don't you dare talk to me if you see me. I don't want you sticking your nose into my personal business.

It's what's best for both of us, got it?

#### Sorry.

This is sudden, but I'm terminating our contract. And don't come crying to me asking for a reason.

I'm sorry, but it's got to be done. Thanks for sticking with me 'til now.

#### Come to the hideout.

I've been thinking... Y'know, about what I want to do... What I want to live for...

In the end, I couldn't find anything worth boasting to you about, but I have figured out one thing I'd like to do.

If you'd like to hear what it is then stop by the hideout whenever.

#### I'll be waiting in Argene.

I'm all done--sorry to keep you waiting. It goes without saying, but the Hallowed isn't an enemy you can go in fighting half-heartedly. And unlike with Kierkegaard, we're the only ones with a fighting chance at beating this thing. So keep your guard up.

I'm by the gate to the Divine Seaslight Cave. Come see me when you're ready to go.

#### Come with me.

Do you remember the settlement we followed Amadeus to? I think I'm gonna go there again.

I'll explain why later, but I want you to come with me. I'll be waiting by the entrance.

#### Whenever you're not busy.

For now, I wanna say thank you. Y'know, for coming with me to the settlement again.

I spent some time alone thinking about Amadeus... and about how I should live my life...

Anyway, I think I've figured it all out andI want you to hear it, so come by the hideout again some time when you're not busy.

#### On the precipice of revenge.

I met someone else, the other day, who lived for the sake of revenge. It was a young girl. I could see that pointless fire of retaliation burning in her eyes.

Back in the day I would've let her go, but that ain't me now. Now I want to believe I can talk her down from that same precipice that I once stood on. I know it may not work, but I have to at least try.

## Trivia

* The red Flos-Indulgentia Brakka wears is actually growing out of his left shoulder, rather than being worn. A datamined portrait of this was found, but never used. The roots of the plant can still be seen on his in game model.
* Brakka is incredibly protective of his rifle, Heresy. In a Break Time conversation, he goes as far as to prohibit Asyl and the Protagonist from touching Heresy, getting quite hostile when the latter automatically assumed they could touch it. This however does not apply to Heine, who he agrees to let run maintenance on it in another Break Time conversation.
