** He's so nice, even Coco couldn't bring herself to tell him how horrendous his cooking is.

A noble of Vacuo who Luke's best friend.

* HealItWithFire: Literally. Guy's semblance grants him an immunity to fire and the ability to heal his injuries so long as he's making contact with it. The only downside is he '''isn't''' immune to the pain. [[spoiler: It's bad enough he has serious PTSD after being trapped inside a burning building as a child.]]

Guy suffers PTSD [[spoiler: after being trapped under the dead bodies of his sister and maids who died to protect him during the massacre of his family]].

Luke is a witness of the Bloody Winter and suffers from a debilitating condition [[spoiler: along with entire life has been a fabricated lie, seeing how he's a clone of Asch the Bloody]].
