He expelled Eric on the grounds that he was rear support and never participated in direct combat. Likes: Alcohol, women Dislikes: People he finds unpleasant First person: I (rough, casual) Speech style: Overbearing and condescending (e.g., "...right?") Ability: Justice Judgment Summary: When activated, a hammer of justice falls upon the target. The effect depends on his magical power.
