"My loyalty for Emperor Barbarosa remains firm. But I cannot serve the present Emperor, whoever he may be."

- Kwanda Rosman

Kwanda Rosman is a powerful soldier and Great General, and became known as "Iron Wall Rosman" and "Kwanda the Insurmountable" for his invulnerable defence and dedication towards protecting Barbarosa's life during the War of Succession.

Kwanda Rosman was stationed at Pannu Yakuta Castle and under the influence of Windy's Conqueror Rune used the Burning Mirror to destroy the Village of the Elves. In response to this, the Toran Liberation Army defeated Kwanda at the Battle at Pannu Yakuta Castle and its leader defeated Kwanda in a duel.

Freed from the effects of the Black Rune and realizing that the Empire was quickly becoming corrupt beyond repair, Kwanda agreed to join the Liberation Army. Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire, he became the Commander in Chief of the Republican Army showing that the new Toran Republic was also insurmountable.

Trivia

 * The names for Kwanda’s Hatchets: Alkaid, Mizar, and Alioth, are stars in the constellation Ursa Major, forming the tail of the bear; these stars are also present in the constellation of the Big Dipper.
 * Kwanda is the first Star of Destiny the player will encounter, who has the option of being executed. Should one choose to execute Kwanda when given the first opportunity to do so, Windy will show up to taunt Tir and company, but she will not appear if you choose to kill Kwanda later on in the scene after he requests that you do so.
