Profile

Dagdar first appears in Chapter 1, where he, along with Tanya and Marty, takes up arms to assist Eyvel in quelling Raydrik's invasion of Fiana.

Dagdar, along with the rest of the Freeblades of Fiana, is later separated from Leif and Eyvel in Chapter 3, as the prince is captured by Raydrik. He then retreats back to Mount Violdrake to plan an assault on Munster.

After Leif is reunited with the Freeblades of Fiana, he makes his way to Mount Violdrake in Chapter 8, where he finds that Dagdar had been betrayed by Gomes, a member of the Mount Violdrake bandits.

Leif then storms Dagdar's mansion in Chapter 8x, where he finds Dagdar and Tanya overwhelmed by the bandits under Gomes' command. Dagdar reunites with Leif here, and although shocked by the news of Eyvel's capture, resolves to aid Leif in rescuing her.

After Leif's army successfully secures control over Munster in Chapter 24, they embark on a mission to rescue Eyvel in Chapter 24x. Here, Sara uses the Kia Staff to undo Eyvel's petrification, reuniting Dagdar with Eyvel.

Dagdar then goes on to continue supporting Leif in his cause to liberate Northern Thracia from the Grannvale Empire in the Final Chapter. Dagdar returns back to Mount Violdrake thereafter, rallying his brigand underlings to continue farming the wastelands, eventually transforming them into a land rich with nutrition.

If Dagdar dies, he becomes the Deadlordss Tigris who is fought in the Final Chapter.

Personality

Though uncouth in his mannerisms due to having spent much of his life as a brigand, Dagdar has a heart of gold, one that sees him willing to lend his aid to people whom he cares for. This can be seen in Chapter 1, where he chooses to help Eyvel to quell Raydrik's invasion of his own free will, worried that she is unable to stave off the advancing troops on her own.

While he may be coarse in his speech, Dagdar is not prone to anger easily, as he initially attempts to parley with Gomes in Chapter 8x. He is only provoked to retaliate against Gomes with violence when the latter refuses to talk and insults him.

Subjective: The following part of this article is based upon the editor's personal experiences and opinions, and therefore may not be applicable for all readers.

Thracia 776 is unique in featuring two Jagens, and unlike Eyvel, Dagdar sticks around. His longevity comes from strong stats and Brave Axe access, making him a powerhouse despite his occasional speed and accuracy issues. The Brave Axe is especially crucial in Chapter 8, where Dagdar must handle waves of enemies while contending with Thracia's unforgiving RNG. With 60 uses, the weapon remains useful all the way into Endgame.

Compared to Osian, Dagdar's 1-2 range is worse due to his D-rank Bows, limiting him to Iron Bows. While still a better bow user than most, he rarely benefits from it. However, he makes up for this with better bulk and capture utility, particularly indoors. His high constitution lets him capture Bishops for staves in the indoor chapters midgame, and he plays a key role in Chapter 14, where Charge indirectly helps grind Salem and Tina's staff ranks.

Like many units, Dagdar is somewhat undermined by Warp, but he still contributes meaningfully. He's a primary Warp target in Chapters 11 and 11x, helps against Ballistae in Chapter 14, and provides ferrying support in Chapters 16 and 23. He even sees solid Endgame combat. While Charge can occasionally put him in danger, it's usually manageable.

Overall, Dagdar is one of Thracia's most consistent units, with strong early- and mid-game performance and only a few weak chapters.
