Biography
Early Years
Toshiro Hakunetsu was born in Yamato. He became a member of the Clergy of Mardük and followed Mardük's teachings closely. He eventually rose to the rank of Abbot. By the time of the Yamatian Invasion, High Cleric Distreyd Thanadar XII sent him to Libaterra with the Yamato Empire's army to act as the clergy's representative.
Distreyd Era
- "I am a servant of Mardük, but my work as such is not befitting. Neither is the work of quarrelling welcomed at this time. Finish this: Trinity Gask and the Rebels within. They should fall apart soon after, neh? We have most of the surrounding country land in our hands, so there should be no escape. Then settle this dispute as it needs be done."
- —Toshiro Hakunetsu to Chouwa Kyouko and Yousei Kaizoku
Hakunetsu accompanied General Chouwa Kyouko and Admiral Yousei Kaizoku to Libaterra and participated in the battles there, acting as the commanders' advisor. When Trinity Gask proved to be difficult to conquer due to the actions of a mysterious hooded man and Kyouko and Kaizoku began quarrelling, Hakunetsu acted as a mediator in their dispute. He reminded the commanders of how imperative it was to work together to subdue the resisting kingdoms. He suggested that after the conflict was over, the two commanders could fight against each other to their heart's content.
Libaterra was eventually conquered by the Yamatian forces, and Hakunetsu remained in the conquered kingdom, acting as General Kyouko's advisor while secretly promoting the dark clergy's agenda.
The Great War began later, and the army of Yamato faced the Grand Alliance. When the Alliance came to liberate Libaterra, Hakunetsu was planning a way to subjugate the Sarquil. However, as word spread of the Reactor Core Explosion and the Faerfolc Rampage, Hakunetsu chose to abandon General Kyouko and headed back to Yamato, only to see the Alliance's army invade his homeland not long after.
When the Cataclysm struck and Yamato fell into chaos as demons appeared and began conquering it, Hakunetsu fled. He was injured and ended up adrift, eventually waking up in what turned out to be Shipwreck Cove. He was driven to despair now that his god Mardük and the clergy he had once served was gone, so he chose to live among the pirates who mistreated him. He found solace by drinking sake, and eventually joined the only notable clergy in the cove, the Clergy of Tiamat.
