**Gustaf**  (グスタフ) is a student in Class VIII of the Thors Branch Campus in *Trails of Cold Steel III*.

## Profile

### Appearance

Gustaf is a large bulky young man with short spiky blue hair and bushy eyebrows. His eyes are often kept closed. He wears the standard male uniform for the Branch Campus, a blue blazer and waistcoat, white shirt and black trousers. He also wears brown loafers. Gustaf uses a large handheld gunpowder cannon in combat, preferring it over orbal alternatives.

### Personality

Gustaf is a dependable, calm man of a few words. He does whatever he can to help others and is regarded as reliable. Often, he defers to the experience of more experienced craftsmen but is slowly branching out to broaden his experiences and interests.

### Background

Gustaf is born in S.1189 and raised in the Mining Town of Aragon, in the north of the Lamare Province. He grew up working in the mines by 12 years old. Smaller than the Sachsen Iron Mine, engineers were always in short supply, and Gustaf's father is the head miner. This lead to overwork so Gustaf left to learn more about the empire's condition and what he can do to help.

### *Trails of Cold Steel III*

At the age of 17, he enrolls at the Thors Branch Campus and joins Class VIII: Combat Tactics under instructor Randy Orlando. At first he muses about joining the Swimming Club, but eventually sets his mind on drumming in the Modern Music Club seeing as he grew up with people who loved Northern Rock and the music from Jurai and North Ambria. He states he had no experience with a musical instrument, however. He later helps console Valerie about her concerns, and they use rock as a medium where their pasts don't matter.

Rean helps Gustaf gather ingredients for his gunpowder weaponry and explosives which are hard to come by in modern times: nitric acid, sulphur and coal. After handing in the materials, Rean notices Gustaf is skilled with machinery and Soldat maintenance as well. Gustaf explains his backstory and Rean learns more about the Aragon Mine. Mint teaches him how to make orbs for Rean's Divine Knight.

### *Trails of Cold Steel IV*

Gustaf is in the North of Lamare after the Great Twilight, searching for information with Sandy, finding Pleroma Grass. When Class VII hide on the road from military trucks, they spot Gustaf who has also managed to avoid being seen. The Aragon Mines have seen increased production and workload due to the National Mobilization Law, and Gustaf is eager to help his overworked family. He guides them to the nearby lodge after warning them that searching for the singularity in the mines is a waste of time, as it would have been noticed. Gustaf later comes to their aid at the Osgiliath Basin and meeting with Musse.

The Modern Music Club, including Gustaf, gather information in Raquel, but head to Alster after a request from Sandy. he helps restore the distillery machine before coming onboard the Courageous II. Later on, Gustaf and the club contribute to the Arc en Ciel distraction performance in Crossbell. Gustaf continues working under Mint, and helps out the Military Finance members as well. He invites Rean and the others to Aragon after the war is over to see the landscapes.
