Pyrox Ferro (バイロクス・バロウズ, Bairokusu Baroozu^?, "Byrocks Burroughs") is a minor antagonist and later a protagonist in Tales of Hearts. He is a member of the Crystal Knights, working in conjunction with Peridot Harmotome in serving under the orders of Chalcedony Akerman.

Appearance and Personality

Pyrox is a muscular man with blue eyes and hair. He wears a military uniform consisting of a white and gray top, green pants, and armored boots. He also wears a red, emblemed torso that matches Peridot. Like Peridot, Pyrox starts off antagonistic is slowly revealed to have a familial relationship with their captain, Chalcedony.

Fighting Style

Pyrox fights with a large Soma cannon in his right hand and a bludgeon in his left. The bludgeon itself is a gun that can shoot small projectiles. Although he is slow, he has a very high defense. In both games, he has five different strike artes using his cannon. In the original game, Pyrox has a plethora of Light- and Water-elemental will artes. His attacks using the bludgeon include an upward swing, a downward swing, a straight thrust, firing a projectile, and two different combo attacks; the first uses the first two attacks, whereas the second uses the latter two.

In Tales of Hearts R, Pyrox's arteset is reduced to two Water-elemental will artes, and two Suppress artes. As for normal attacks, only the upward and downward swings from the bludgeon make a return.
