Overview
Dalsin is a decent character if used, being a stereotypical Knight who has good growths in Strength, HP, and Build, and a decent one in Defense. Coupled with high bases in most of these stats, he ends up becoming a good defensive wall. Unfortunately, his Magic, Speed, and Luck bases are quite terrible, and he will most likely be doubled and hit by the majority of the units he faces. His Skill is an odd case, as he starts with a low skill stat, but with a 40% growth he still ends up gaining it often, usually capping it (or coming close) by the end of the game. The only way to make up for many of these weaknesses is to use the Crusader scrolls that give large amounts of Speed, Luck, and Magic, such as the Sety, Ulir, and Heim.

Due to his innately high axe rank, he is able of using most axes very early in the game, with a B enabling him to use his equipped Battle Axe right away, which helps some of his innate accuracy problems. When he promotes into a General, he does gain access to Bows, Swords, and most importantly Lances. Unfortunately, all of these are only E rank, and a heavy amount of effort is needed to level any of them up. His Pursuit Critical Coefficient is 1, and he has no innate skills, giving him some disadvantages over other axe users. Despite this, he can still be a viable unit on your team.

Ending
Dalsin - A Knight of Passion (熱き情熱の男 Atsuki jōnetsu no otoko)

After the war, Dalsin was stationed at Fort Kelves, requesting the new post himself. He fought day and night to protect the nearby villages from thieves and bandits, and it didn't take long for him to completely eliminate the thieves roaming the area around the fort. Eventually, "the place more frightening than Hell" came to be known as "the place safer than Heaven itself."
