Aaron Wei (アーロン・ウェイ) is a young man and performer from Calvard's Langport introduced in Trails through Daybreak.
Profile[]
Appearance[]
Aaron is a young man with striking yellow eyes and bright crimson hair of considerable length, tied up in a single pony tail reaching his waist. He wears a loosely buttoned black shirt with the collar upturned, red trousers with a series of paired belts and black shoes with a scale embellishment. Aaron wears a cropped off-white jacket with a gold trim and ornate scale patterns on the white section and a red version along the hem. Golden cords are used throughout his outfit, including one around his waist acting as a belt accessory.
Aaron is armed with two twin fencers, ornate thin straight edged sword with scale patterns along the fullers. One of these fencers has a red gem in its pommel whereas the other has a blue.
Personality[]
Aaron is a playboy who had made a name for himself as a philanderer in the Eastern Quarter, and the leader of a hot-blooded youth group. Aaron is typically disrespectful to his seniors and lives a fairly hedonistic lifestyle. He is vengeful when those close to him have been wronged and will start a fight easily. He has a strong attachment to his hometown and an equally strong sense of loyalty which inspires those around him. He is successful at everything he tries his hand at.
While being a master of sword and fist of the Gekka Style[JP 1], one of three major martial art styles, he never stops attracting the attention of others with other feats such as earning heaps of money at a casino and performing sword dances in Eastern theatre as a onnagata. Because of his extravagant behavior, he earned the nicknames Prodigy[JP 2] and Crimson Khan.[JP 3]
Background[]

Aaron is the reincarnation of a demonic soul, the Tyrant, that appears in Langport every 40 years. This soul is said to be naturally full of power and charisma and a soldier, ruler, liberator, and leader. Aaron himself is unaware of this, but Gien Lu started to have suspicions and distanced himself from the boy because of them.
Aaron, born to Yuefa Wei, grew up in Langport, Calvard. After Yuefa passed away, Aaron was chiefly provided for by the Lu family, headed by Gien Lu. As a result, he had a strong connection with the Lu family of Heiyue and Ashen Lu was a childhood friend. For reasons unknown to Aaron, Gien began to distance himself from him. Aaron took up roles in the theatre, dressing up as a female whilst accruing great personality.He was also the ringleader of a gang of youths who were fiercely loyal of their hometown and did not look kindly upon those threatening the area. The actions of increasingly-active Almata in Langport caught Aaron's attention and the threat of a brawl led to a precarious situation where the underworld entered a war.
Trails through Daybreak[]
Aaron leads his gang into brawls with Almata members and hired thugs who have started make moves on Heiyue's turf in Langport under the name of the "Messeldam Trading Company". Aaron at this time is a very popular figure, and there were movements to appoint him as an executive in Heiyue despite his lack of interest in the organization. He is Fan Lu's top choice as a husband for Ashen. Cao Lee requests the services of Van Arkride to come to the city and help defuse the situation and avoid catastrophe upheaval should Heiyue loses its place as the moderators of the underworld. Van accepts due to the bribe of sweets and due to the flash of the Genesis which links it with his request from Agnès Claudel. Van first sights Aaron in the theatre.
Van and Aaron have a fractious beginning and the two quickly engage in a fight after Van intervenes in Aaron's business. Aaron is growing increasingly frustrated with Almata's actions and doubly so when they massacre several of his friends and members of his group. During a raid on a warehouse, Aaron and van cross paths again, but Aaron's foolhardy and arrogant nature means he is quickly heavily injured by Alexandre and Viola of Almata. After being healed due to the efforts of Heiyue, Aaron starts to see the value of cooperation and works with Van to stop Almata. Aaron's knowledge of the city is incredibly useful and they narrow down Almata's base of operations to the Heilong Cheng Zhai. They travel there, rescuing Maxim Lugan in the process.
In the stronghold they confront Viola and Alexandre, but realise that their goal was Aaron all along, having recognised him as the reincarnation of the Tyrant. Almata planned to unleash him on the city, destroying Heiyue as recompense for their part in sealing him away the last reincarnation. They toss the nearby Genesis to Aaron which overwhelms him with his previous incarnation's memories and turn him into the Tyrant. He immediately attacks Viola and Alexandre due to his rage at them for killing his friends, but they withdraw. Van and the party get through to him after a battle and Aaron confronts the Tyrant in his inner mind, overpowering him and taking back control.
Gien Lu and the Lu family's top xiongshou arrive and Aaron comes to the realization that Gien had set him up with Almata, and was intending for the Tyrant to be unleashed in order to lead Heiyue in the troubling times ahead. The rest of the Lu family disapprove and Cao and Yin intervene, having made it back from Crossbell ahead of plans. Gien steps down and Aaron laments the deterioration of his relationship with the elder. Aaron travels back to Edith and takes up employment with Van, who cannot get hold of Cao to prevent this.
Aaron joins the spriggan's efforts to hunt down the remaining Genesis units and thwart Almata's efforts across Calvard. Aaron makes himself at home in Edith's underworld and makes contact with local gangs. He makes frequent visits to the Blacklight District. Aaron proves to be skilled driver of both cars and motorcycles, and visits the strip club when investigating the town with Van in Tharbad. He quickly learns that treating Elaine Auclair with disrespect is a bad idea.
Aaron returns to Langport to honor the anniversary of his mother's death and visit her grave. he plans to stay, train and party for a bit but ultimately return to work with Van once again, to the latter's chagrin.
