Also known as: The Olesm, The Drake, nephew, blue-scaled Drake, the blue Drake, the Drake Tactician, Olesm Swifttail
A polite, blue-scaled Drake who is the highest-leveled [Tactician] in Liscor. He is roped into playing a high-stakes chess game against Erin by his uncle, Lism.
He is a Drake with scales, claws, and a tail that thrashes wildly when he is panicked.
Lism's nephew, a blue-scaled [Tactician] employed by the Council. He arrogantly assumes he will easily beat Erin at chess, but finds himself constantly put in check by her aggressive plays.
Olesm loses a public chess match to Erin Solstice, humbly apologizes for doubting her, and expresses eagerness to learn more strategy games and potentially advance to the [Strategist] class.
Greets Erin near the market street and tries to invite her to a game, but she ignores him due to her severe menstrual cramps.
Draws a game of chess against Erin, voices concerns about the Antinium Workers to Klbkch, and ultimately levels up his [Tactician] class.
Olesm arrives to witness Erin's final chess game and is moved to tears by its sheer beauty and complexity.
Brings Erin a chess puzzle sent by the Titan of Baleros, and agrees to send her counter-puzzle back.
The blue Drake rushes into the inn exhausted but ecstatic, announcing that he spent nearly a week solving Erin's chess puzzle and leveled twice as a result.
Yields his chess game to Erin so she can play Pawn, and later resumes playing with Pawn while Erin sings.
Olesm approaches the expedition leaders at the Guild, introducing himself as a Level 24 Tactician and asking to join, but is turned down for lacking gear.
Olesm unexpectedly joins the expedition to gain combat experience and level up, nervously chattering with Ceria and Gerial to manage his fear as they delve into the dungeon.
The Drake [Tactician] uses [Rapid Retreat] to help the mages escape the ambush safely. During the counterattack, he uses [Attack Formation] to significantly boost the party's combat abilities.
Participates eagerly in the treasure hunt, fails to recognize the tomb's language, deduces that Drakes wrote the warning to hide their bones from Skinner, and suffers extreme fear during the retreat.
Zevara demands that Olesm be found to use his Skills, but Tkrn reports he hasn't been seen.
“But I still think you might be willing to take me. I have valuable skills I could contribute, and I—I’d like to improve myself.”
“I may not be a good fighter, but my Skills should help quite a bit. Believe me, I will come back better than ever. And perhaps then I’ll win a game against you.”
“It—it could be something written in the past. Like I said, it’s vaguely similar. But I never knew if we changed written languages. I certainly can’t read it.”
“I’ve never felt anything like that. When I was a child and the Necromancer attacked ten years back—that was the closest. But this is different. I am afraid, and [Dangersense] doesn’t convey fear. We have to go.”
