The Trailblazer takes the resemblance of human with silver, grey hair and gold eyes. The male Trailblazer, Caelus, wears a light gray t-shirt, black pants, and a black long-sleeved jacket. The female Trailblazer, Stelle, wears a white inner shirt, a black short-sleeved jacket, and a black tight skirt. Both genders maintain the same clothing color palette and aesthetic.
Personality[]
When in battle, the Trailblazer is intense and passionate. It has been noted through their ultimate animations that Caelus (male) seems to have a more aggressive outward demeanor in battle, while Stelle (female) seems to be colder and more indifferent.
The Trailblazer's personality outside of battle is dependent on the player's own choices, but there are basic trends they can swing between. Their personality ranges from being composed and serious, humorous, sarcastic, lazy, pessimistic, hot-blooded, and so on. When the player interacts with the Trailblazer from the perspective of another character, they appear to be reticent, simply staring back without saying anything. Other characters interpret this as them just preferring not to talk. Due to the variety of interactions the player can perform in the game, they will often do questionable things like checking trash cans or wandering around aimlessly.
Due to their amnesia, they question themselves and their past.
Powers and Abilities[]
In general, the Trailblazer's abilities are derived from whichever Aeons have recognized their talent and glanced at them, allowing them to receive power as a Pathstrider, so long as they are actively following the tenets of that Aeon's Path. They have innate power due to the Stellaron sealed within them, although they are currently unable to harness it without endangering their own life.
- Destruction: The Trailblazer has an enhanced baseball. Receiving power from a glance of Nanook, the Aeon of Destruction, they swing the bat against multiple enemies with great force.
- Preservation: The Trailblazer receives a flaming lance after being stabbed in the final battle in Belobog and gaining the gaze of Qlipoth, the Aeon of Preservation. With the lance, they can drive themselves forward to pierce an enemy, resulting in a large explosion. Afterwards, they use it to defend their allies from enemy attacks.
- Harmony: The Trailblazer inherits the legacy of the Watchmaker, a Nameless hero who founded Penacony, along with his hat. In the final confrontation, they receive power from Xipe's gaze, the Aeon of Harmony. They can throw their hat at enemies and perform a dance (ft. the Watchmaker's fictional character, Clockie) to synchronize their allies and increase damage.
- Remembrance: The Trailblazer unlock some past memory with Stellaron Hunters while on Amphoreus. That they used to be friends with them but have to forget so they can join Astral Express as part of Elio script to defeat Nanook. With this power they can attack enemies with the quill and summon Mem to the feild.
