* TheMentor: He proves a surprisingly good teacher for Corrin. Most adults keep warning Corrin off from doing anything reckless to enhance his power and tell him to just stick with traditional methods. Keras tells him to be careful, but is happy to help with all those reckless things, and helps him develop a unique fighting style that will fit Corrin's own abilities.
