Kurt Vander Husbando

Kurt Vander is an intermediate at the Vander school and a student at the Thors Branch Campus. Kurt is a young man with light blue hair, which he inherited from his mother. Unlike the other men in his family, he has a slender build. During the events of Trails of Cold Steel IV, Kurt wears a white sleeveless vest with a blue-sleeved shirt underneath. Like his older brother Mueller, Kurt was excited to protect Cedric Reise Arnor in a manner similar to how Mueller did for Olivert Reise Arnor. When this privilege was revoked, he fell into a depression. Despite this, he still cares for Cedric's well-being. Although he gets along well with his family, Kurt was initially plagued with doubts. He considered himself to be inferior because of his appearance and the fact that he had to settle for dual-wielding rather than the large swords the Vander school is known for. This changed after his experiences at the branch campus, in particular with his instructor, Rean. Kurt was born in Erebonia. He is the son of Matteus Vander and his second wife, Aurier. Until the age of 10, Kurt lived in Parm where his family ran the Vander Training Hall. When Matteus was appointed as guardian of Emperor Eugent III at the Valflame Palace, they moved to Heimdallr. Kurt is specialized in the Vander school twin blade techniques, making use of the agility of his slender body. Making it to the level of intermediate at a young age demonstrates his natural talent for swordmanship.
