109 Lloyd
A master of the composed sword, known as the “White Wolf.”
Known as the “White Wolf,” he is a master of the blade and strongest of the famous “Four Fangs” of the “Black Fang.” Along with his brother Linus, they are referred to as the “Brendan Brothers.”
They were strongly suspicious of their father’s second wife, Sonia, and her actions –but they were unable to make their suspicions known to their father Brendan and Nino, inadvertently allowing the secret manipulations to continue.

The “White Wolf” Lloyd is not simply a man with excellent sword skill. He has the kindness and discretion to avoid fighting within cities, and remains cool and calculating in fights. It can be said that Lloyd best embodies the soul of what the “Black Fang” was known for –being a chivalrous thief and a gentleman.
He challenged Eliwood’s group to a fair fight, following “Fang” tradition –and lost.
The last of the old, chivalrous “Black Fang” had died with him.
