We have already told you a lot about an upcoming tournament in Rigga and the deck they use, which you have likely missed because of Steam's malfunctions. Today we’d like to meet you with Finn’s companions—Kleta and Raylo. We’ve often mentioned these characters in our previous articles, and today we’re ready to tell a bit more about one of them.
It’s hard to imagine two people who are less alike. Raylo is a young and ambitious nobleman, a sarcastic snob, putting himself above others. And Kleta—a man of the people, straight and quite rude, and he has no warm feelings for prudish and pompous aristocrates. How hard will it be for these two to get along? But both of them have something in common—they both are never at a loss for words.
Kleta is a close friend and a comrade-in-arms of Eik, our main character’s foster father. It’s hard to believe that this unpretentious bloke is one of the best intelligence agents of Berkana and one of those who stole «The Way». Risking his life, he spent long years in Frisia, almost died there, and was happy to finally retire and go back to Berkana. Eik and Finn fin him in an old tavern.
Kleta hoped that he’d have a peaceful life now, but he has to take a new challenge soon. First he has to teach Finn tricks of the game, and then follow him in Frisia.
The old intelligence agent is definitely not happy about it—but his sense of duty doesn’t let him refuse. No matter how crazy Eik’s plan seems to him, he’s not the one who will hole up putting all responsibility on the shoulders of an inexperienced boy.
In the game Kleta is responsible for the deck management. It’s also him who gives Finn the First test after which he gives Eik’s foster son the first of the four commanders with special abilities.
Finn is definitely lucky to have such a companion. In spite of the fact that Kleta can push one away with his rudeness, you can hardly find a more devoted person. And the point is not only that his loyalty is always with Eik’s foster son and he’ll always support him with wise advice. He will never lie for the greater good and will speak out even the most unpleasant truth. But if things go completely wrong he will stay with his friends till the very end. And an unfavouravle outcome of their mission is definitely possible.
In the next post we’ll tell you about one more companion of Finn, Raylo. And now learn from Kleta in our demo, share your impressions in comments and be sure to add our game into your wishlist!
