ヒーローへと変身したターバックが身に纏うスーツは、動物の骨や羽毛を模した飾りのついた、故郷の祭祀が身に纏う儀式服がベースになっている。手にした杖の先端から伸びる「糸」がターバックのパラレルウェポンであり、淡い光を放ちながら戦場を舞うそれは見るものの視線を奪って離さない。しかしながら、糸の真価はその見た目ではなく、「繋ぐこと」にある。想いを繋げ、残すというターバックの夢の通り、その糸はふたつのものを繋いでいく。例えば崩れる建物と無事な建物を繋いで崩落を遅らせたり、ヒトと自分を繋いでヒトのつらい感情や記憶を受け止めて分かち合ったりと、器用に使いこなしている。

When Turbak transforms, he dons a suit decorated with imitation animal bones and feathers reminiscent of the ritual clothes of his homeland. The thread that issues from the tip of his staff is Turbak’s Parallel Weapon. It emits a dim light as it dances across the battlefield, stealing the attention of all who look at it. This visual distraction is not where the thread’s true value lies, however. It has the ability to connect. Much like Turbak’s dream of bringing hearts together and leaving memories within them, the thread pairs entities together. For example, he can connect a collapsing building with a standing one to slow the damage, or he can connect himself with another individual to share the burden of a painful experience or memory.

辺境の星で祭祀の家に生まれたターバックは、星とヒトを繋ぎ、残していく役目を負うものとして、幼少期から厳しい修行に明け暮れていた。周囲のヒトも自分も祭祀となることを疑わず過ごしてきたある日、故郷の様子は一変する。その土地で希少な鉱石が発見され、自然と共に生きてきた土地は、ほんの10年で都市へと姿を変えたのだ。そして父親の代で祭りは終わりになると告げられた日、ターバックは故郷を離れ、自分の道を歩むこととなる。自分が覚えていれば、そして誰かの記憶に残すことが出来れば。故郷の祭りは死なない、自分の生きた意味が消えることはないのだと。

Born to a shaman family on an obscure planet, Turbak had endured brutal training since childhood in preparation for his role of connecting people with the planet and preserving memories. There had not been a doubt in his mind that he would someday take his father’s place as shaman, until one day, his village changed entirely. Valuable minerals had been discovered in the land, and the village abruptly stopped living in tune with nature and turned into a great city in a mere ten years. On the day it was announced that the shaman’s festival would end with his father’s generation, Turbak left his homeland to walk his own path. As he took to the stars, he thought of his life and his culture. He concluded that as long as he remembered it, and it remained in the thoughts of others, the festival of his home would never die, and the meaning of his life until then would not fade.
