Biography

---- Jowy Atriedes was born into the wealthy Atriedes Clan of Highland. However, there was a distinct lack of love and caring in his family, so Jowy tended to care little for them. He was much closer to two friends from his boyhood: two kids adopted by an old hero named Genkaku. The children were Riou and Nanami. Riou and Jowy were the best of friends and were inseparable. As kids, they did everything together: Kept secrets, harbored a crush for the beautiful Jillia, they defended each other's honor, and more. Eventually, the two boys decided to join the Highland Youth Brigade together.

During his training, Jowy and Riou witness a massacre. Although Prince Luca Blight of Highland amssacred the troops, it was passed off as an attack by the City-State of Jowston, so the people could be whipped into a frenzy and want war. Both boys were found out by Rowd, the captain of the Youth Brigade, and are ordered to death. Riou and Jowy jump into a river to escape.

Jowy was rescued by child named Pilika and her parents, Marx and Joanna. Jowy rested to recover his strength, but when he heard Riou was held captive by Flik and Viktor, mercenaries of the City-State, he breaks Riou out of jail.

The boys were able to return to Kyaro thanks to the aid of a traveling circus troupe, but they are both caught by Captain Rowd when they go to get Nanami.

The boys were sentenced to death, but before they are sent to the scaffold, Jowy speaks to Jillia, at how Highland betrayed him, and not the other way around.

Flik and Viktor came to the rescue, however. The boys and Nanami joined with them and went back to the City-State.

Jowy decides to introduce Pilika to Riou, and both boys are welcomed with open arms.Pilika informs Jowy that she went to Muse and saw a great gift for her father, and asks Jowy if he could walk to Muse and get it for her if she gave him the money. While Jowy is gone, however, Pilika's hometown of Toto Village is burned and pillaged. Pilika is the only survivor.

Jowy meets Apple, a strategist, and takes her to Viktor, where they decide they need to fight. Viktor gives Jowy and Riou the job to repair Fire Spears, old weapons made by the dwarves. Riou and Jowy find a man named Tsai who can fix them, but suring this time, Ryube Village, another small town, is ransacked.

Jowy decides he wants to fight, and he, Riou, and Nanami join Viktor in the battle. But Viktor's plan fails and they must all retreat to the capital of the City-State, Muse.

While going through to Toto Village, Pilika enters a shrine that her father used to take care of. Jowy examines the writing and is taken to a place where he relives his happy days with Riou. Riou is also with him, and the two boys are granted the power of the two pieces of the Rune of Beginning. Jowy recieves the Black Sword Rune, which grants him powerful offensive magic.
