Bezaliel makes his entrance like a shadow.

Bezaliel is an applicable candidate for the Holy Knights, because:
 * Reputation: Among the Rune Knights, his reputation is noted to be quite well maintained as, despite his role as a scout and information gatherer, there is no trace of any deception in his words. He is a well-informed, but truthful man who reports all of his findings to the Magic Council and preserves the order and reputation of the organization, especially in these tough times.
 * Personality: Bezaliel is a calm, studious and devoted man who seeks to do anything within his power for the cause of promoting peace in the populace. However, he understands that (almost) all people deserve to atone for their sins and therefore never resorts to killing. Although an amicable person, due to being consistently exhausted as a result of his occupation, there is a comical avoidance of Bezaliel among the Holy Knights with the exception of those who know him well.
 * Contribution: Bezaliel has contributed significantly to the Rune Knights. It was initially his idea to split the Rune Knights into squadrons based on a Rune Knight's respective strengths, thus increasing their deploy-ability and efficiency in certain situations. In addition, he spearheaded the information gathering habits of the Rune Knights for years to come. Although he intended on these skills to be used for the correct purpose, the upper echelon of the Magic Council made the validity of his contributions somewhat difficult to observe.
 * Signature Skill: Outside of his general magical prowess, Bezaliel is an incredibly skilled informant, strategist and tactician. He has gathered a select number of Rune Knights that worked alongside him back during his days as a student, and uses them, along with the Holy Knight's resources, to gather necessary information about the movements of Dark Guilds and associated threats to Ishgar. He reports this information to the Magic Council and, thus, assists in the decisions made by the Magic Council regarding the Holy Knight's missions.
 * Magical Abilities: Bezaliel, although a skilled Knight, has a far greater level of skill in Magic of the obscure kind. His primary ability is in Illusion Magic. Otherwise, he makes use of Magic Seal-based fighting styles in a similar vein to by using daggers and knives as a medium. Finally, his most unique ability is to draw on the power of stories, that is, storybooks that have Magic within their writing. He can draw out the characters or setting of these stories by expending his own magical energy and, accordingly, manipulate them to his own end. A more limited version of Summoning, if you will.
