Samu Hassaru

"A young man, so young he could barely be called a man. His hair was black and white and he wore an open robe reavealing his youthful chest. In his hands he carried a most peculiar instrument; It appeared like a guitar only it had a blade like that of a scythe near the bottom. He was Samu Hassaru."

Samu Hassaru is an ambitious lord from Fate By Blades, initially part of the Allied Forces, before leaving to pursue his own ambitions following the death of Mitchu Higube.

Early Conquests
After leaving the allied forces, Samu joined with Kona Higube to defeat Damien Silverhawk, conquering Silvervale in the process. Upon Kona's suggestion, Samu adopted Arado as his son and settled Silvervale. He then warned Lucas Septis of the plot against him, gaining the approval of the northern lord to invade the River Heartlands. After sometime campaigning, Kona was married to Lucas's Ward, Samu temporarily losing Kona's services, but regaining them shortly afterwards.

Betrayal and Death
Following the advice of Ethan Brown, Lucas gave Kona governership of the provinces of Chengo and Hagun, which Samu had been planning to invade, with an imperial edict preventing Kona from deferring governance to any other person, unless specified by the Emperor. Enraged, Samu left Arado is Kona's care and left for the capital, with plans to assasinate the Emperor. However, Ethan had planned this, and had Rikon Alo prevent Samu from doing so at the last moment, increasing Lucas's power considerably. Samu was then executed, which caused Kona to join Lucas due to his marriage of Lucas's Ward. He was later resurrected by Ezra to face off against the Beowulf Forces, led by Kona. However, Samu refused to fight Kona and instead defected and joined Kona, despite knowing that Ezra's death would result in him fading away.

It was Samu who defeated Salseus Firth, casting him back to hell. Upon defeating Ezra, Samu bid Kona a tearful farewell and faded away, glad that he helped Kona build a land of peace.
