Editing Bladud

'''Bladud''' ('''リバスト/Ribasuto''' in Japan, and '''Ruvas''' in the English {{NES}} release) is a minor character in {{DQ4}}.

The former owner of the {{Zenithian armour}}, he died defending the town of [[Bath]] from the monsters, and is now a ghost. According to the novel, which expands on his story, his full name is "Ribasuto Raru Kurutosu" and is considered a legendary [[hero]] with distant zenithian ancestry. He acquired all the [[Zenithian Equipment]] and stopped a monster revolt from destroying [[Casabranca]]. This explains the minor inconsistency of a seemingly normal person being able to use the heavenly equipment when [[Orifiela]] states that only those with [[Zenithia]]n blood can use them.

He is aware that his armour was stolen, and upon it's retrieval from [[Briny Lair]] by The {{Hero 4}}, he allowed him/her to keep it. He will then depart to the afterlife, but if the party reenters the town after this scene Bladud will still be there, likely due to a programming flag.
