Toroito Loyd

Toroito is a former Imperial Shadow and oldest child of House Loyd. He defected from the Imperial Shadows after they decided to erase him. And was later hunted by the Shadows until he died in the arms of Mitsu Flora, the ECHO Supply Command Division 1 Captain.

Background
As a child, Toroito had a strong sense of justice and believed that the government held the ultimate form of justice. He decided not to become the next head of House Loyd and decided to pursue a military career instead. He rose up in the ranks of ECHO and was selected to become a 1st generation Imperial Shadow at the age of 18. He underwent through the grueling program and graduated with 10 others. One of his first missions occurred during the Vermillion Rebellion of 9987. During the end of the mission, he decided to save a little girl, who had lost her parents in the conflict. This little girl was named Mitsu Flora and she would later dedicate her life to trying to catch up to Toroito. Ten years later, in Imperial Year 9997, Toroito was on a rescue mission with two other Imperial Shadows. During the mission, his Shadow allies tried to assassinate him, he questioned them and they were under orders to kill him. He killed them, but felt that the justice he had believed all of his life was a lie. As he killed more and more Shadows that came to kill him, rumors spread that he had become a mindless killer. The members of House Loyd had arrest warrants issued and most went into hiding. During the final attempt on his life, Toroito became heavily wounded, but he managed to capture Mitsu Flora. Recognizing her as the girl he had saved ten years prior, Toroito questioned why she had joined the military. She admitted that it was to follow the purpose she had laid for herself. Without questioning further, Toroito confessed to her the truth of the matter. He felt his time was nearing and did not want to be written in the annals of history as a traitor. He wanted someone to know that it was the Council that betrayed him. After his confession, he died in the arms of Mitsu Flora, the woman that devoted her life until then to him.
