Takt Alsaholn Faubrey (Spin-off)

Takt Alsaholn Faubrey (タクト＝アルサホルン＝フォブレイ) is the Vassal Whip Hero who resides in Shieldfreeden.

Appearance
Takt is described by Naofumi as having a well built and handsome face. His hair is gold, and his eyes are blue. He looks like a stereotypical westerner, closely resembling the old Motoyasu. His clothing consists of a rough jacket and pants which is unusual for the surrounding culture. Under his crown is a bandana, which doesn't suit him.

Due to Motoyasu's broken mental state, he sees Takt's face as a literal blurred face.

Personality
Takt is someone who has lived in constant praise throughout his life. While he follows proper etiquette and displays respect for others, he truly believes that he is above everyone else. As someone hand-picked as a vanguard of the waves, Takt possesses all of the common characteristics however they are a bit more subtle than most. He is arrogant and brutal. When he is winning, the world is as it should be through the survival of the fittest. However, if he starts losing, the opponent must be cheating in some way. Like other vanguards of the waves, he gets extremely angry when something or someone he "possesses" gets damaged.

Background
Takt was one of the reincarnated individuals selected from another world to be reincarnated in Raphtalia's World. He was given special powers by the organization behind the waves which allowed him to excel. He was considered a once-per-generation super genius and was able to master magic at the age of three.

When he was five, Takt reformed the paper-making process which provided his additional prestige and praise. At seven he focused on alchemy and magical machines. He eventually graduated top of the class in Faubrey's best academy and then left for Shieldfreeden for a martial arts tournament. He won the martial arts tournament and receive the Vassal Whip as his prize. Since then he has rebuilt ancient airships and gathered for himself a group of powerful female companions

In the original timeline, Takt had caused the Phoenix to explode which caused several of Naofumi's villagers and the defence force to be killed. He then attempted to take over the world which was eventually thwarted by the Heroes and King Aultcray.

Loop 4
As part of his mission to collect all of the Vassal Weapons secretly, Takt had installed Tulina to act as the late Vassal Claw hero in order to prevent suspicions from being raised. However, due to Motoyau's power, his spear was able to detect the deception and kill Tulina. An investigation was started to investigate the whereabouts of the true Vassal Claw wielder. Seemingly to help with the investigation, Takt offers to come to Siltvelt from Shieldfreeden. When he arrives, he exchanges pleasantries but asks to see the false Claw Hero's body. Due to Motoyasu's mental state, he could not see Takt's face or remember where he had seen him from.

The next day Naofumi and Motoyasu are invited onto Takt's airship. Takt ambushes them and tries to get revenge on Tulina but Motoyasu suddenly remembers him from the timeline and kills him in an instant. His harem try to retaliate but Motoyasu kills most of them before Naofumi can stop a total slaughter. One of the survivors heads to Shieldfreeden where she rallies forces to attack Siltvelt.
