Commentary: "Sanitago Fraga has also created a Saint representing his alter ego.  The same principle as it is for me with Arythar.  His Saint is named 'Athanor', and he's wearing a skeleton armour, whose parts belonged to his mentor's body.  His mentor sacrified himself for his student to let him win over an evil group of some Saints of the Sanctuary.  Though Athanor's master is dead, this way his master still very close to him.
About the name Athanor: The interesting thing is that I first had exactly this name for my ficitional Saint, after I changed it to 'Arythar'.  On one side I didn't want to leave 'Arythar' nameless so I needed a name quite quickly, and on the other hand I wanted to have a name which did not already exist, since 'Arythar' was a name I
already heard before." -Arythar McShido
