Pesmerga Bio
Pesmerga is a Black Knight in search of the Black Knight Yuber. His age, history and where he is from is all but a mystery. He joins the Toran Liberation Army and later the Dunan Unification Army in hopes of finding Yuber. At the final battle between Imperial Troops and the Liberation army outside Gregminster, Yuber leads the troops in the "Nine gates of the demon lords" formation, which proves to be impossible to penetrate even with Mathiu's genius. However, Pesmerga knew of the weakness of this particular formation and led the Liberation Army to victory. His name means "he who chases after death" in Kurdish.Yuber Bio
Yuber is a complete mystery. He is known as The Black Knight, but otherwise no one really knows who he is--or what he is. Actually, no one even knows whether Yuber is a he or a she. All that is known about him is that he owns a True Rune, the Eightfold Rune, which has unknown powers. Yuber himself possesses powers that are clearly beyond that of a human being. Yuber is often seen in the midst of conflicts, such as during the Gate Rune Wars and the Dunan Unification War. He has been a subordinate of Windy for centuries though, helping her find True Runes and destroying countless lives in the process. He was hired by the Highland Army during the Dunan Unification War mainly due to Leon Silverberg who knew Yuber for some reason. Yuber harbors a great hatred towards other True Runes and actively tries to destroy whoever wields their power. The cause for this is unknown as well. Only Pesmerga knows more about Yuber. Pesmerga himself is also a mystery, but he says that Yuber is like a shadow.
Skills/Abilities/Persona
Pesmerga and Yuber are very similar, Murayama said that they have the same faces when asked in an interview. They at first were drawn differently but then Junko Kouno (main designer) was told he can make them alot more similar. Pesmerga's hair is black while Yubers hair is blonde. Both have very similar armor and are presumed to be male.
Yuber, The Black Knight, this non-human being has been the cause of the destruction of the Village of the Hidden Rune which he set on fire, being Windy's subordinate at the time(300 years before the Gate Rune War) . He later on is found on the Scarlet Moon Empire's side of the Gate Rune War where he fights along with Windy against Tir, but once his army is defeated by the liberation army he escapes. He is then found in the Dunan Unification War after Leon Silverburg calls on him. Leon Silverbergs relationship to Yuber is not known though, but he joined Highland as a General for hire. He had no real attachment to the kingdom nor its people, that's why he escaped at the fall of L'Renouille. Yuber's involvement in these wars was due to mainly the fact that like Kage, he can be hired since he is a mercenary and he hates the Rune of the Beginning in particular. A very interesting fact though is that Yuber never mentions anything about Pesmerga.
Pesmerga, The Black Knight, has been seen in the the Gate Rune War first, nothing is known about his past. Pesmerga is a vengeful warrior, who masks himself behind his armor. Pesmerga is neither kind or caring, just silent. He was found by Tir in Neclord's castle. Pesmerga thought that by locating Neclord he could find Yuber, but to his surprise he found Neclord dead. He joins Tir's army in hopes that Yuber is still at the Scarlent Moon Empire. After the final battle Pesmerga finds Yuber and a duel commences but nothing happened and Pesmerga lost Yuber once again. Pesmerga is then later on found at the Cave of the Wind, where he thought he could track Yuber if he found the Zodiac Sword. Pesmerga joins Riou after hearing that Yuber is in the Highland Army.
The Eightfold Rune & Miscellaneous
The alchemical symbolism of Eightfold flowers is that of the "universe" and its centrality. The Ninefold Flower is the opposite of the Eightfold flower in traditional alchemy. In Daoist alchemy, the number 8 is the highest Yang value (order), while 9 is the highest Yin value (chaos).
The rune's power itself is a mystery , no one knows about it's power except Yuber himself. Although it is believed that it is the cause of Yubers affinity with monsters, his teleportation skill, and his immortal life.
No one knows whether Pesmerga has any true rune. It's been speculated about but nothing is certain. Peshmaerga is the name given to the frontline fighters of the PKK. They are known as fierce warriors and terrorists in Turkey. They name themselves Peshmaerga as it means "those who do not fear death."
Yuber meant "Shade" in Kurdish, and Pesmerga meant "He who stands in front of death"...
Yuber has similar armor to the Mirages and Phantom enemies. The Mirage and Phantom enemies are known for moving without actually moving. Pesmerga starts with 666 HP in Suikoden
