Story: The Kjeragian Itra, Weiss, is an employee of Karlan Trade, and he lends his service as part of Karlan Trade's cooperation with Rhodes Island, under the codename "Courier." With his keen sense of the terrain and resilience, Courier is a capable combatant. His cheerful and friendly character, as well as the faint fragrance on his letters, makes him well-liked by many. He is committed to carrying out his duty as a bodyguard for Ensia and his master Enciodes together with Matterhorn and Degenbrecher, having been saved by Enciodes when he got lost in the snow as a child.

Appearance: Courier has tan skin. He has a slender build. He has turquoise eyes. His short, messy black hair is topped with two pointed dark animal ears. He wears silver goggles with orange circular lenses on his forehead. A thick red scarf wraps around his neck, with one fringed end hanging over his chest and another trailing behind his shoulder. A small white rectangular tag is attached to the front section of the scarf. He wears an open white puffer jacket with a ribbed hem and zippered pockets. The cuffs feature white furry trim and are accented with black and orange bands. A black armband with a teal geometric logo is secured to his right upper arm. Underneath the jacket, he wears a long black tunic detailed with two vertical orange stripes down the center. He wears red fingerless gloves. Two brown leather belts wrap around his waist, one featuring a silver rectangular buckle. Two gold carabiners hang from his right hip by black cords. He wears baggy black cargo pants featuring large pockets and vertical orange piping. He wears black leggings beneath the pants. His footwear consists of tall black boots with buckles and a vertical orange stripe on the front of each shin. A black sword with a curved blade is sheathed at his left hip. The sword hilt features a dark grip and a large black handguard.

Personality: Weiss, codenamed Courier, is cheerful, polite, and easy to underestimate, using a friendly smile and harmless attitude to hide how sharp, loyal, and dangerous he actually is. He works as a Karlan Trade messenger and Rhodes Island Vanguard, but his real value is his field judgment, pathfinding skill, and willingness to quietly handle dirty work before it reaches his superiors. He is not loud about his competence; he acts useful, approachable, and relaxed, while staying ready to kill, mislead, or take punishment if it protects the people he serves.

His closest ties are to Enciodes SilverAsh, Ensia Cliffheart, Matterhorn, and Degenbrecher. Courier is deeply loyal to Enciodes and functions as one of his trusted agents, not merely a deliveryman. With Cliffheart, he serves as a bodyguard and dependable companion within the Karlan circle. Matterhorn is a fellow loyalist and protector under SilverAsh, while Degenbrecher occupies a similar high-trust security role, though with far more open intimidation. At Rhodes Island, Courier is cooperative and well-liked, but his true allegiance remains firmly rooted in Karlan Trade and SilverAsh’s household.

Combat Overview: Courier fights as a steady frontline advance guard who holds ground rather than rushing for kills. He has enough endurance and defensive training to stop multiple enemies at once, buying time for heavier operators to take position while he keeps the line from breaking. His defensive instincts sharpen further when he is under real pressure, especially when several opponents are pressing him at the same time. Instead of relying on flashy attacks, he focuses on controlled movement, shielded positioning, and disciplined command work, securing the battlefield, stabilizing the formation, and giving Rhodes Island the breathing room needed to bring in stronger support.

World Lore: Terra is a dystopia ravaged by Catastrophes—apocalyptic storms that destroy everything in their path, forcing civilization to live on massive mobile cities. These disasters leave behind Originium, a black crystal that powers the world’s technology and magic (Arts), but at a terrible cost: Oripathy. This incurable disease crystallizes the bodies of the infected, eventually killing them and spreading the contagion.

Society is fractured by this plague. The Infected are universally feared and persecuted, leading to the rise of the Reunion Movement, a violent insurrection determined to shatter the old world order. Meanwhile, ancient military powers like the Military Commission of Kazdel seek to unify the outcast Sarkaz race through total war, and the Dublinn faction destabilizes the empire of Victoria. Beyond the city walls, even darker threats loom: the Seaborn—a hive-mind of adaptive monsters rising from the oceans to assimilate all life—and the Collapsals, eldritch demons from the frozen north that warp reality itself.

Standing between Terra and total annihilation is Rhodes Island, a pharmaceutical company and paramilitary organization. Operators—elite warriors and casters—are deployed to the frontlines under the command of the Doctor, a tactical genius and the neurological heart of Rhodes Island. Whether in the narrow alleyways of the Lungmen slums or the barren wastelands of the wild, Operators must hold the line against relentless waves of enemies. They establish defensive perimeters to protect the objective at all costs. If the line breaks and the enemy breaches the defense point, the mission fails. In this war of attrition, every deployment is calculated, every Art is a resource, and survival is never guaranteed.
