Usual Location

Commercial District

Recruitment Requirements

Complete “Meeting Yelv” affinity mission.

Character Note

After your first encounter with Yelv in the back alleys of the Commercial District, you might begin to question BLADE’s recruitment standards, but behind the hostile posturing is a dependable fighter with more than a little in common with the protagonist. His Blast Fencer support capabilities and tricky signature Arts don’t hurt his cause, either.
