Protagonist (Bladestorm)

In Bladestorm: The Hundred Years' War, edit characters are avatars of the players themselves created right before the beginning of the game. Each gender has eight different faces and three kinds of voices to choose from.

Joining England's side causes the color of their clothes to remain red whereas aligning with France changes it to blue. Any type of armor equipped also alters their overall appearance in battle. Though initially armed with swords, they may be provided with other weapons found as treasure or bought from the merchant.

Similar to Samurai Warriors Chronicles, these characters are silent protagonists whose choices are determined by the player. Their role is to earn fame and glory as mercenaries by winning battles and completing the various assigned tasks given to them. In time, their success enables them to meet many important figures from both sides of the war.
