Basgath

"Labyrinth guides ought to fear no man, only the labyrinth itself. Don't yeh know that?"

- Basgath, to Goyef

Goyef's father. Speaks with an accent. Is considered to be a pretty big deal.

Appearance
He's a stoic-looking old guy who'd look cool smoking a cigarette.

Personality
An elder guide who operates in the Great Elroe Labyrinth. Having more complete knowledge about the Upper Stratum of the Great Elroe Labyrinth than any other, he is a first-class warrior and resourceful guide. As a result of being a labyrinth guide who survived long enough to retire, Basgath is extremely cautious. He considers manners to be a waste of breath, and thinks that picking off more than you can chew is idiotic.

After encountering the Nightmare of the Labyrinth, that became a trauma for him and he retired as a guide.

Synopsis
Basgath leads a group of knights from Renxandt to investigate the unusual monster activity in the Great Elroe Labyrinth. He flees after encountering a terrifying Zoa Ele, and then refuses to join the follow-up expedition. Afterwards, feeling there was some kind of fate he became a guide for Shun and co. He considers Shun's bad dream to be a bad omen.

Abilities
Basgath fights with a sword, but can also use Dark Magic. He's strong enough to hold his own in Shun's party, and has the unusual ability to eavesdrop on telepathic conversations.
