History
|
Kwanda Rosman was a powerful soldier and Great General who favors the use of the halberd in battle. Kwanda was born into a military family and his impressive armor had been handed down through his family for generations.
When the War of Succession broke out, Kwanda was an officer stationed at Pannu Yakuta Castle. He would become part of Barbarosa's forces when Barbarosa began to reorganize his forces from the region. Kwanda's force, which protected Barbarosa, became known as the Guard. Following the war, they would be reorganized into the Imperial Guard.
During the War of Succession, he once used his own body as a shield when Barbarossa was taken by surprise by a volley of archers. He wore his armor ever since. He became known as "Iron Wall Rosman" and "Kwanda the Insurmountable" for his invulnerable defense, heavy armor and dedication towards protecting Barbarosa's life during the war.
During the Gate Rune War, 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 initially requested to be executed as befitting a warrior. However, the hero would convince him to join the Liberation Army as his work was not finished. He wished to remonstrate with the emperor and be the wall that shielded him from the corrupt influences destroying the Empire.
As a former Great General, he was more comfortable spending time with his fellow former imperials at Toran Castle. Following the fall of the Scarlet Moon Empire, he became the Commander in Chief of the Republican Army, his dilligence making him best suited for uniting the former Liberation Army and the remaining remnants of the Imperial Army, showing that the new Toran Republic was also insurmountable.
