- Desmond

Desmond served as an assistant to Flare in her position as Princess of Obel. Although weak-willed, the polite and serious Desmond was a man who would tackle any task given to him with hard work and dedication.

Loyal to Flare and the Kingdom of Obel, he was one of the first people to join the crew of the Headquarters Ship. During the Island Liberation War, he would develop a strong crush on Louise, often visiting her in the ship's saloon. He would become jealous of Ornan, worried that he had similar feelings for her, even writing a letter complaining to that effect.

After the war, he because depressed for a time after Louise vanished but recommitted himself to his stately duties under Setsu.
