Alva (Thracia 776)

"May...the flag of Nova...fly high and strong...!"

- Alva

Alva (アルバ Aruba, one fan translation Alba) is a twenty year old knight of Lenster. He is best friends with Kain. As with Robert and Kain, he has no speaking lines in the game, but he is described as a bright and cheerful character according to his description on the official website of Thracia 776, and in contrast to his friend Kain, who is more brooding and taciturn. This is supported by his ending, which states that when he went to Southern Thracia to restore public order, he eventually won over the people there, who had initially viewed him with distrust, by his good-will and affability.

Alva is the Cain archetype of Thracia 776, even though his name seems to suggest that he is the Abel archetype instead.
