Vesture Kloff Di Laufen

Vesture Kloff Di Laufen (ヴェスチャー・クロフ・ディ・ローファン) is a retired adamantite-ranked adventurer who keeps a swordsmanship school in the Re-Estize Kingdom, and the man who taught Gazef Stronoff. He is old, white-haired to the last strand, and unmistakably a fighter: the arms are thin with age but they do not sag, they read like steel, and his eyes are the perceptive eyes of an animal. He wears ordinary dojo dress, black below the waist and light blue above. Thirty years ago he went into the depths of the northern Tob Forests with his own adamantite team and two mithril teams to bring back a rare herb from Zy'tl Q'ae. Since retiring he has chosen his pupils himself, among them a mercenary out of a frontier village whom he put through a punishing course of drill and lecture. He has worked out a technique beyond the Fourfold Slash of Light, and since his years keep him from using it, what he passes on is the theory.
