~ Dart Feld
“
I have lived only for myself. I believed it was something I had to complete by myself, even if I had to leave Shana and the people of the village behind. But when I came back, look at this. I almost lost my hometown again! Lavitz. I am going to Hoax with you! I don't want to see anymore senseless bloodshed!
Dart Feld is the main protagonist of The Legend of Dragoon. As the son of Claire Feld and the legendary Dragoon, Zieg Feld, Dart was seemingly orphaned when a mysterious force known as the Black Monster attacked and burned-down his hometown of Neet. On his own and with nothing but the Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit left behind by his father, Dart was raised in Seles alongside a girl named Shana.
Dart eventually left Seles without word, determined to find and slay the Black Monster, out of a pure sense of revenge for the death of his parents. He has a strong sense of justice and hates anything that is not fair and honest. Although he is still young and makes mistakes, his faithful actions attract others, allowing for him to be a good leader to the Dragoons.

Tier: At least 9-B, Low 8-C as Red-Eyed Dragoon | 7-B, Higher as Red-Eyed Dragoon, 3-A as Divine Dragoon
Alignment:Chaotic Good (Dart is incredibly noble, but also entirely self-driven. Though he would never shy away at the chance to help those in need, he even admits himself that he had only been living for himself. The goal to find and kill the Black Monster overrode everything in Dart's mind, leading to the departure of his hometown. He has since learned to overcome this selfish desire, but still has many inclinations to save his friends above all else)

He does require sleep and can get exhausted after battle, notably if he uses his Dragoon powers to an extent beyond that which his body can handle. However, he is still fairly capable of battling for extended periods of time)

*Broad Sword: Dart's starting weapon. This is the blade he wielded during his training and then subsequent five year-long search for revenge against the Black Monster.
Broad Sword
Bastard Sword: A blade with nearly double the strength of its predecessor, the Broad Sword. Dart found it within a chest inside Limestone Cave.
Heat Blade: A sword that Dart found and bought in Kazas. It not only has more power than Dart's previous two swords, but is also accompanied by the fire element that burns with every slash.
Falchion: Bought in Fueno for 250 gold, the Falchion is more far more powerful than the Heat Blade, but has no special elemental effects accompanying it.
Mind Crush: Dart discovered this blade within the Forbidden Lands of Kadessa. Not only is the Mind Crush more powerful than the Falchion, but it also has the possibility of confusing a target.
Fairy Sword: Bought at Ulara's weapon shop for 400 gold, the Fairy Sword isn't much more powerful than the Mind Crush, but greatly increases his SP with each successful attack.
Claymore: Dart's second most powerful weapon, purchased within the Moon That Never Sets. Due to the drawbacks of Dart's ultimate weapon, this is often seen as his actual best option.
Soul Eater: Dart's ultimate weapon, which h received as reward for defeating the Polter Armor and Loner Knight. It is by far the most powerful weapon in Dart's arsenal, though it has the drawback of draining 10% of his health every turn.
*Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit: The Dragoon Spirit used to control the Red-Eyed Dragon, and transform its wielder into the Red-Eyed Dragoon. It was first used 11,000 years ago by Zieg Feld during the Dragon Campaign, which he used to defeat Melbu Frahma. Unbeknownst to Zieg, Melbu sealed himself away in the Spirit and possessed Zieg. After the destruction of Dart Feld's hometown of Neet, he recovered this Dragoon Spirit from the rubble and kept it as a memento of his father. Eighteen years later, Dart meets Rose, who activates the Dragoon Spirit and allows for Dart to become the Red-Eyed Dragoon.
Red-Eyed Dragoon Spirit
Divine Dragoon Spirit: The Dragoon Spirit used to control the most powerful of all Dragons, the Divine Dragon. After killing the Divine Dragon, Lloyd recovered this Spirit, which had never before been wielded by a Dragoon. Much as he expected, the Divine Dragoon did not react in Lloyd's hand, but he carried it with him until his loss at the hands of Melbu Frahma. Through pained breaths, Lloyd entrusted the Spirit to Dart, to whom it reacted and chose as its wielder.

Notable Techniques
*Double Slash: Dart's initial Addition. This is one powerful slash, followed up by an identical slash in the opposite direction.
Double Slash
Volcano: Dart attacks four consecutive times. He leads with an overhead strike, then a diagonal slash, before spinning into his third attack, and finishing with an upward jump-strike.
Volcano
Burning Rush: A three-hit combo. Dart once again leads with his overhead sword slash, but then follows it up with a kick, and finishes with a vertically upwards sword strike.
Burning Rush
Crush Dance: A five-hit combo, starting with an overhead slash, followed by a spinning-horizontal swipe. Dart then attacks horizontally in the other direction, spinning after he does, then performing a lunge stab, and finally finishing with an upwards jump-strike.
Crush Dance
Madness Hero: A six-hit combo, where Dart charges at his opponent and attacks them with a quick flurry of powerful strikes.
Madness Hero
Moon Strike: A seven-hit flurry of consecutive strikes. Dart attacks overhead, horizontally to the right, and then diagonal down twice in an X formation. He lunges the sword forwards into the enemy two times, before finally plunging the sword into their head, and taking a second to yank it back out.
Moon Strike
Blazing Dynamo: The most powerful of Dart's regular Additions, consisting of an eight-hit combo. Dart uses an overhead strike, slashes twice in an X formation before striking downwards, using a spin-attack, then slashes upwards and takes advantage of the air-time to kick off of his enemy. Dart finishes by performing a front-flip, and slashing down as he lands.
Blazing Dynamo
*Flameshot: Dart throws his sword up high into the air, and then begins to yell as he charges all of his power into one concentrated ball of fire. With a shout, he thwacks the flaming ball towards his opponent, which soars towards them and explodes on contact. Dart then catches his sword at the end of the attack.
Flameshot
Explosion: Howling the name of the attack, Dart flies high into the air with his sword raised above his head. He then rockets down to the ground, plunging the sword into the earth, which creates a massive fiery fissure that travels over towards his enemies. Flames erupt out of the ground in the form of a slew of fireballs, which themselves create explosions once they hit the ground.
Explosion
Final Burst: Dart crosses his arms together, gathering power which amasses as a large fiery aura surrounding him. As the aura takes the form of a sort of red bubble around him, he lets out a scream and then extends his arms outwards, dispelling the energy in a massive wave. His Dragoon wings turn into wings of pure flame, before he puts his sword in front of him and energy engulfs it. After he yells the attack name, Dart rushes forwards with incredible speed, straight through the enemy, leaving only a blazing trail behind.
Final Burst
Red-Eyed Dragon: The most powerful of Dart's special attacks as the Red-Eyed Dragoon. After Dart activates the attack, he disappears, leaving only a raging pillar of flame behind. From within the pillar emerges a gigantic draconic figure, made entire of flames; the Red-Eyed Dragon itself. It shifts from its fiery form to a physical form, before getting into position and blasting-off like a rocket at the opponent. The resulting collision leaves behind a nuclear-esque explosion, obliterating the foe.
Red-Eyed Dragon
*Divine DG Ball: Dart firmly plants his feet on the ground as a pool of red energy spills out around him. He then lifts himself into the air, thrusting his shoulder forwards showing off the armor plating, which then moves and reveals a set of turrets beneath it. Dart lets out a howl as a red electricity powers-up the turrets, and then fires off a slew of consecutive energy blasts. The explosion that results from the blasts shaped like a nuclear mushroom cloud.
Divine DG Ball
Divine DG Cannon: Dart's most powerful attack. A heavenly light appears in the sky above, appearing as a sort of vortex that culminates to a point over Dart's head. A beam of light then shoots out of the vortex and engulfs Dart, with him absorbing all of said light energy into his arm-cannon. Dart points the arm-cannon directly at his foe, shouting the name of his attack before letting out a scream and unleashing a gigantic white beam of energy.
Divine DG Cannon
Other
Weaknesses: As a Fire Elemental, Dart deals less damage to other Fire Elementals, and receives extra damage from Water attacks. Items cannot be used while in Dragoon form.
