Profile
Berkut is a noble who places great importance on social status. He guided the coup d’etat in Zofia by luring Desaix into betraying. Berkut also convinces Fernand to join the Rigelian army and leave the Deliverance. He is vying to be the next emperor and commands the invasion of Zofia to prove his military prowess. He is also engaged to Linea, who cares for him during the ongoing war.

Berkut loses a battle against Alm and is forced to retreat, and becomes enraged when he discovers Alm is the heir to the Rigelian throne. Linea assures Berkut that it's okay that he failed, as she does not have significant interest in ascending the throne. Berkut thinks she is mocking him and is dead set on preventing Alm from stealing his rulership. Berkut makes a pact for ultimate power to defeat the Deliverance with Duma, however, Duma forces him to sacrifice Linea. After Alm defeats Rudolf, he encounters Berkut who is now blessed with Duma's power. After the battle, as Berkut lies dying, Linea appears to him and tells him to come with her to the other side. Before dying, Berkut tells Alm to make Valentia a world free from gods.
