Description:
Beginning History:
- Owner of the rhoan training hall. Dresses like a traveler, but the scars all over his body prove he's no ordinary man. Valiant, but also values fairness above all else. The proof is in his two swords and the fact that he takes both boys and girls as his pupils.

- His "Eastern Sword" school is of the 4 Great Schools. You used to come here often, but haven't as of late.
Background:
Gustav is the father of the coward Duran and owner of the Training Hall in Rhoan. He's also the head of the "Eastern Sword" of the 4 Great Schools.
Appearance:
He has white, short hair and blue eyes and a brown beard. Gustav is wearing a blue crystal earring on his left ear. Although he wears a worn-out darkblue cape and typical clothes of a traveler, he is the head of the "Eastern Sword" of the 4 Great Schools. He wears brown boots and brown gloves as well as two swords.
Personality:
At the first glance, Gustav is just an middle-aged man who doesn't talk much and is strict to his students. But he treats his students (boys AND girls) equals and acts as a model when it comes to maintaining discipline, fairness and showing bravery. He works hard and seldom shows feelings. He wants to settle a score withHeath, the only man he has lost against. That's a reason why he trains harder than anyone else. He feels guilty that he wasn't able to save Rex's family when they were killed, although they were already dead when he arrived.
