Lieutenant Yuri Katana
Before Barbatos took Yugoth under his iron grip, Yuri was mentored and protected by General [Redacted] Blazer, the first and only guard of the Red Rose Palace. Blazer was the only person Yuri ever knew as family, thanks to Blazer taking them in. She has no memories of life before Blazer, until she fights Blazer’s arch nemesis.
Bio
Yuri Katana has no memory of her past before meeting General [Redacted] Blazer. She grew up learning the way of the sword and how to prepare for the inevitable war. But she didn't mind this as she enjoyed spending time with Blazer, or Blay to her. Blazer was like her protector and mentor, they taught Yuri everything they knew and they also gave her her surname, Katana, after seeing her skills with the artistic weapon.
She wasn't allowed in the Red Rose Palace as the King and Queen didn't approve of Blazer having a pupil, but this didn't stop Blazer. Yuri was kept hidden in Blazer's workshop behind the wind cellar, a place no one but Blazer ever visited.
After Barbatos' rise to power, Yuri now works for Viceroy Boleyn as the master swordswoman, lending her skills to many pupils, just like General [Redacted] Blazer would've wanted.
