![]() This motivated Adol to go to the island of Esteria to investigate. Rumors were starting to spread that Esteria had become overrun by monsters. ![]() Once a peaceful hub of trade, a veil of storms suddenly appeared out of nowhere, cutting off all shipping. Upon the arrival at the port town of Promalock, he heard about the island of Esteria. Having absolutely no desire to be caught in the middle of a war, he made an abrupt change of plans and headed west instead. He learned that war had broken out between the Mercantile Kingdom of Altago and the Romun Empire. While resting in a tavern halfway to Promalock, Adol overheard local merchants talking. However, fate threw a spanner into his plans. The first destination he had in mind was the largely unexplored continent of Afroca. He continued to dream of far-off lands, and when he turned 16, left his home village to begin his own adventures. Between this, and his father's bedtime stories of dragon-slaying heroes, Adol decided to one day become an adventurer. His stories of far off lands captured Adol's imagination early on. Sometime later, an elderly traveling merchant came to his village. It's shown in the intro of Ys I that during his childhood, he was taught the basics of swordsmanship by his father, a skill that he excelled in and made his own. Adol came from a humble background, born to a peasant family, but still managed to live a normal daily life. Not much is known about Adol's past, except that he was born in a small nameless mountain village in the northeast of the Europe region. In that sense, Adol has become a character that has been fostered and molded by the players. Throughout the Ys series, players have been able to imagine who Adol is, and their common thoughts have shaped the character's development. Fans of the series have come to know and love Adol in the same way as a popular historical figure, with their own interpretations of who he is and what he stands for. ĭespite his lack of dialogue, Adol's character has grown and developed over the years through his actions and adventures. Over time, this signature red look became synonymous with the "red-haired adventurer" and has since become a defining characteristic of Adol's appearance. With the limited color palette of the PC-8801, the team chose red as the primary color for the character's design. The iconic red-haired appearance of Adol was born out of the technical limitations faced by the development team during the creation of Ys I: Ancient Ys Vanished: Omen. Being a man of adventure and of few words, he never stays in the same place for long and always expresses himself through motivation and his will to fight and help those in need.Īdol is a young adventurer who is portrayed as a silent protagonist, allowing players to project themselves onto him and experience the adventure through his eyes. Known to many as a master swordsman, he also carries the nickname "Adol the Red" due to his fiery-red hair a rather unique trait among those he visits during his travels, thus earning him that title. Despite being a silent protagonist throughout the entire series, he is shown to be the type of person who can never leave those in trouble and will try to help him or her in any way he can. He is an adventurer and a swordsman who has a knack for arriving at the right place at the wrong time. I intend to write many, many volumes of travelogue during my journeys, hopefully leaving behind a legacy of discovery for future generations to discuss."Īdol Christin ( アドル・クリスティン ?) is the main protagonist of the Ys series.
