Fukunosuke

What is a promise worth when measured against a mountain of magic crystals? Ask Fukunosuke, and their smile will tell you business is business. In The Crystal Highlands of Armaria, they are known as the merchant in the fine suit, a dealer in monolith shards and arcane catalysts. They move among wizards and scientists, their expressive flair closing deals under kaleidoscopic sunsets. But after the markets close and the great fortress grows quiet, the suit is folded away. The combat pole is not an ornament. Following a code of honor inspired by the wanderer Yukimura, Fukunosuke moves through the shadows to settle debts that have nothing to do with coin. The fallen leaf they wear is the only clue—a quiet, dying thing in a world of eternal, glittering stone.
