Sturm Addison

"Sturm Addison"

- loyally following the commands of his prince.

About
Sturm Addison is the son of Rick Addison. While the identity of his mother is unknown, it is assumed to be Leila Grecni, who became engaged to Rick during the 2nd Dark Lord War in the year LP0007, and with whom Sturm shares a common hair and eye color.

Very little is known about Sturm beyond the fact that he is shown to have succeeded Prince Zance Leazas as the general of the Leazas Red Corps during the 20th year of the Blank Era, following his father's legacy.

Sturm makes a very small appearance during the epilogue of Rance X: Part 2 where he, along with Almond Sharp, is ordered by an agitated Zance to assist in removing his mother, Queen Lia Parapara Leazas, from the throne.

Personality and Appearance
Sturm is a young man with shoulder-length red hair, red eyes and fair, feminine features. His clothing consists of a variation of the standard armor of the Red Corps that features extended shoulder pauldrons. Overall, Sturm strongly resembles his father in appearance.

Due to his limited screen time, Sturm's character is largely unknown. He is suggested to be very similar to his father in terms of general personality and temperament, as he responds to Zance's orders in an obedient, formal and polite manner. Notably, he does not wear a helmet with his armor, implying that he did not inherit his father's timidity.

Abilities
Nothing is known about Sturm's capabilities as an individual, though it can be inferred from his position as general of the Leazas Red Corps that he is a skilled warrior in a similar vein to his father. As the general of the Red Corps, Sturm is also the owner of the enchanted sword Byroad, though it is unknown if he possesses the talent for swordsmanship necessary to wield it effectively in battle.
