Yuri comes across as sarcastic and cynical, possibly due to the way the nobility treated the people of the Lower Quarter. He seems to enjoy teasing others, especially Karol and Rita, although he does develop a strong bond of friendship with the former, becoming something of an older brother figure. Unlike many main characters in the Tales series, Yuri's has a more fully-formed personality. He is an empathic young man who prefers to solve smaller problems from individuals rather than the larger, more political ones. Yuri grew up in the Lower Quarter of Zaphias with Flynn, and according to many of the residents there such as Ted they were the best of friends and shared everything, such as the first sword that they bought together. Growing up as a commoner caused Yuri to develop a dislike for the empire's nobility due to their haughty nature towards anyone less fortunate than they and their tendency to turn a blind eye to the suffering, and so throughout his adventure he takes the side of normal, average people over them.

What sets Yuri apart from many other RPG protagonists, particularly those in the Tales series, is the fact that as the second-oldest member of the party, he already has some awareness and knowledge of the world around him. Also, unlike other protagonists, whom usually grow up over the course of their story, Yuri is quite comfortable with the person he is, already having an established mindset and personality that changes and develops very little over the course of the story. This manifests mostly as mocking quips directed at Boccos and Adecor during tutorials, but is also apparent during discussions about the nobles and their treatment of the lower classes. This also makes Yuri less prone to depression and hesitation. He is not afraid to take difficult matters into his own hands, and throughout his travels comes to decide that taking the law into his own hands is the only way to ensure that the villains of the world are punished. However, as shown by his conversation with Flynn in Mantaic, he is fully aware, and to some extent even worried, that in doing so he risks becoming a person that, in a sense, is just as bad as those whom he despises.

Fighting Style__________________________________________________

Yuri is capable of using both swords and axes in battle, though axes usually reduce his attack speed while providing more damage. He uses his fists and feet in combination with his weapons, often punching the enemy with his gauntlets instead of using his main weapon. His Fell Arm is Blazor Edge Abyssion, and the sword he is seen with in official art is Second Star, the sword received by completing the Secret Mission during the battle with Estelle.

Well, what do you think, Yuri?

(/bends over a little and cups hands behind back)

Don't you think this new outfit suits me?

Or perhaps you prefer that stuffy old armor?

Estelle, taken by surprise, let out a cute squeak. She had been mindlessly reading while walking around the castle before being swept off her feet. Noticing her husband's attire she blushed a bit, but covered the bottom half of her face with the book in her hand. "Oh... you look quite ravishing, Darling." The princess cooed. She really did love seeing him wear that outfit, he looked so distinguished and manly. Estellise batted her eyes then said, "You really are my dashing Knight." It was odd... how she could act so confident, when in reality she was blushing like mad. Thank goodness she had that book with her.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"Y-You look...---" She stared at Yuri, taking in his appearance for a second, then made herself respond to him, "Oh? B-But wont that be too much trouble on Yurimi?" Regardless of this last statement, Estellise grabbed a hold of Yuri's hand. Her heart began to pound as she did so, and she could feel her face get noticeably hotter, which wasn't the best thing to happen in this heat. She hoped that her hand didn't feel gross in his, or that he didn't think she looked weird. What was she thinking? Of course he wouldn't think something like that... Yuri was... "Perfect." She thought out loud. Estellise then clapped her hand over her mouth. "I-I mean.. You're perfect." -- Wait... did she REALLY just say that? "I-I mean you look perfect." AGAIN? "O-Oh... never mind..." The princess looked away, and blushed. She felt so stupid, like how she felt around Yuri all the time before they had even discussed their feelings to one another.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"J-J-Just us?!" Estelle's face flushed at the idea. The girl slowly turned around to face her husband, hoping that he wouldn't notice the new tinge of pink across her cheeks. Or if he did notice, hopefully he would think it was just because it was extremely hot today.. She wondered how it was that after all this time, she still could feel so nervous, anxious, and excited around Yuri. "U-Uhm well..." Estelle let her mind wander for a second. What would this 'alone time' entail, exactly? If they were going to swim together, that meant that Yuri would see her in a swimsuit... Making her feel nervous, and self-conscious. But she would get to see him as well... The princess weighed her options very carefully, thinking of every pro and con to this activity. "I-I'd love to go swimming-- j-just the two of us." She stuttered when she finally made her mind up.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxEstelle walked casually into the room Yuri was currently sitting in. "Yuuuri~" She sang out, taking a seat next to her husband. The princess slouched over a bit, and began fanning herself with her hand. "It's so hot today..." She sighed, then looked towards Yuri. "I think... I'd like to go for a swim." The princess stated out loud, deciding it would be best to move away from her husband and sit near where the fan was. Why did the air conditioner have the break on the hottest day of the year? Estelle wasn't sure, she just knew she had to cool off fast.
