Breath Of Fire

Hero

Age: 16

Weapon: Sword

Special ability: Guts

Magic specialty: Dragon magic

Field Action: Fishing

The Hero, or Ryu as his default name is, is exactly that, the hero,

or main protragonist of BoF2. Having lived in Gate as a child with is

Father, Ganer and his sister, Yua, he was mysteriously orphaned at 6

years old. Having taken his sister's advice, he fell asleep under the

guardian dragon. When he awoke, he found that his father and sister

were missing, and no one remembered him. Shaken and scared, he took up

shelter in the church, under the care of Father Hulk. There, he meets

his best buddy, Bow.

Hero's special ability is guts, the ability to call upon his inner

strength and spirit to heal his wounds. Of course, if you don't use

this ability often, its healing power is greater. This ability is best

used in a bad situation, when you need a quick boost.

His magic specialty is Dragon magic. Like the first BoF, Hero can

summon his strength, as a result of his human/dragon hybrid, to change

into a powerful dragon form. However, unlike the other BoFs, it's a

one shot deal, as it eats up all your AP, or Ability points. You can

restore his AP during battles for repeated use of the Dragon magic,

making this a powerful attack. The basis for damage total is the

difference between the MAX AP and the Current AP. The bigger the gap

between the numbers, the less powerful the Transformations are. A

42/50AP attack won't do as much damage as a 24/25AP attack, as the AP

is closer to Max.

The Hero's field action is fishing. Upon exiting a fight, you may

happen across a fishing spot, designated as a little fish hopping in

and out of the water. Hero must be in the lead, and have fishing gear,

rod and bait. More on fishing later.

BOW

Age: 16?

Weapon: Crossbow

Special Ability: Shot

Magic specialty: Healing Magic

Field Action: Hunting

Bow's past is mysterious... well, as mysterious as a walking, talking

dog can be. He met the Hero in Gate, and has been travelling ever

since. They made their way to Hometown, and have secured a job as

Rangers at the local Ranger's guild, a group of people who hire

themselves out for odd jobs.

Bow's special ability is Shot, an attack that is sometimes an instant

kill on the enemy. Although the chances are very slim, it still is

useful. You'll find out later on how useful. Bow is also in command

of
