Astro Cleargrove

* Official Artwork
* 2021 Concept

**Astro Cleargrove** is a secret character in *Disney's Final Frontier*. He's also the main character of *Alphaheart*, a game developed by HaiyuMedia Games, with the project lead by Unknown Tale. He appears as a Secret Boss in Robin Hood after completing the Bonus Challenge.

## Personality

Just like in the game, Astro is a brave wolf who is on a constant battle against the mysterious Specter Alliance, while searching for his mother, Mysti. After a strange shift in time and space, Astro accidentally ends up in Robin's time and participates in a tournament, hoping it would bring him back to his team so he can get back to his adventure. After the events of the Bonus Challenge, it is revealed he was last year's winner, and had returned after he had completed his adventure to defend his title in a championship match. He was willing to help the team out on their quest. According to his initial stats, it is believed that this particular Astro is from a timeline where he chose the Path of Light.

## Unlocking Astro

Astro's Secret Boss Battle is a recruitment battle where you send one party member against him in a championship title match. Upon beating him, he joins the team as a Helping Hand. He's able to retain all his spells and finishers, nix his Kyūsokuken for a reason specified in-game (his powers got drained heavily after losing to whatever character he fought against).

### Strategy

For the best chance of winning, you should choose a character with knowledge of various sword techniques. Focus mainly on fencing techniques to land blows on Astro. He can also use spells such as Thunder III and Reverse Blow, but like your character, he has a MP and TP meter of his own and will tire out when his MP reaches 0. Astro also has a Mirror Spell that can send any spells you use on him back at you. When you see this spell, dodge immediately or reflect back. Also, his Saigoken and Kyūsokuken, when every hit lands, can guarantee a K.O. at a low level, so try to get an ability that allows you to hang onto 1 HP, but if he uses Kyūsokuken when your character is at 1 HP, the damage from all hits will be exactly 0, with the exception of the last hit being exactly 1 damage.

## Abilities

Astro's Ability List is faithful to the game he's from, therefore having his own special ability list in the Melee Abilities. He also has Movement Abilities.

### Finishers

* **Sweeping Swipe:** Astro's Sparring Technique. He slides under the legs of his opponent breaking their guard in the process and knocking them down. The damage is equal to his maximum attack output multiplied by 3.
* **Saigoken:** Starting finisher. Astro performs a 5-Hit Combo back and forth across his target, in a formation similar to roman numeral XIX. This results in an explosion of magic as the 6th hit. Critical Hit chances are high.
* **Kyūsokuken:** Lv 10 finisher. A common finisher that appears in most RPGs Unknown Tale had involvement in. This deals a regular 6-Hit Combo as roman numerals XX and V in the Light Element at default, but when Astro reaches Lv 30, it becomes more like the one used in his Secret Boss variation which adds the equals sign for 2 more hits, ending with an acute angle for 2 hits, followed by turning around for a downward strike for a total of 11 hits. The enemy becomes overloaded with the magic energy sent inside him from the combo that they would suddenly burst into one of eight different elements. The extended combo will guarantee at least one less enemy on the field when used.
	+ Much like Tod, Astro can use the Zetta variation, however since he can't use Beta, Gamma, and Delta forms, he can only use the Mini-Zetta, Alpha Disruptor, and Zettaflare for his enders, unlike Tod having access to all of the enders.

## Trivia

* Astro Cleargrove was originally not going to be created. Alphaheart started out as a fanmade RPG based on Universal's Balto Trilogy under the name *Balto's Adventure*, but was immediately changed after passion for the fangame was lost. After the design of Astro was conceptualized, Unknown Tale never went back.
* Haiyu in English stands for "Actor," meaning the name HaiyuMedia is actually ActorMedia.
