Background / History
Obi-Wan was an orphan raised in Tinos by Alfred’s Hunter Organization. Alfred subjected children in the organization to prolonged brainwashing and trained them as expendable child soldiers; Obi-Wan endured this system for a decade. 43
Antonidas of the Dunhold Family recognized the compassion that remained in Obi-Wan and helped him escape Alfred’s influence. Obi-Wan entered Antonidas’s service, received the Dunhold surname, and became the family’s steward. 8 43
After learning that former companions were still dying under Alfred’s regime, Obi-Wan left the Dunhold Family alone to confront the Hunter Organization. He defeated Alfred, became its new leader, and abolished its brainwashing policies. His mercy in sparing Alfred allowed Alfred to survive and later organize his revenge. 43
Obi-Wan was away from the Dunhold Family when it was destroyed. On returning, he found Antonidas dead and believed that his former master had been framed. He rescued the surviving Aeneas at ruined Goldfish Port, then dedicated himself to raising and protecting Antonidas’s son. 8 10
He also adopted Rami, a shipwreck survivor with no memories, and spent years searching for treatment for her worsening illness. When Rami was captured by the Hunter Organization, Obi-Wan surrendered himself in exchange for her safety. 13 30 34
Appearance
Obi-Wan is a powerfully built, middle-aged man with an initially unkempt appearance. He carries himself like a veteran blade fighter rather than a conventional household steward. 8 34
- Bearded and middle-aged; described as being in his forties or fifties. 8 13
- Carries a long blade at his waist. 8 34
- His hair had begun graying after the strain of Rami’s worsening condition and betrayal by the Hunter Organization. 29
- His restrained aura can make the surrounding air feel cold when his anger surfaces. 34
Personality
Obi-Wan is profoundly loyal, compassionate, and duty-driven. Antonidas’s kindness remains the defining influence on his life: he views protecting Aeneas and clearing Antonidas’s name as debts he must repay. 8 10
As a mentor, he is strict, practical, and patient. He demands precise repetition, physical conditioning, survival knowledge, and disciplined routines rather than allowing Aeneas to depend on talent alone. 11 14 15
His greatest vulnerability is Rami. Obi-Wan will endure humiliation, imprisonment, and coercion to protect her, even when doing so forces him into decisions he considers unforgivable. 34 44 45
