Open the official release announcement ↗Coen is the named protagonist caught between humanity and vampirism. Brencis and his court rule Vale Sangora, while Coen’s family makes his decisions personal. This is not an anonymous adventurer without ties to the people around him. Official Bandai Namco game page.
Coen grew up in Laslea, a village in Vale Sangora. As the eldest sibling, he helped support his family and worked in the silver mines with his father. He also secretly studied Latin, imagining a different future. These details come from the publisher’s Coen’s Roots bulletin. Bandai Namco: Coen’s Roots.
| Name | Relationship | Background |
|---|---|---|
| Pieter | Father | Former mercenary who taught Coen basic swordsmanship |
| Esme | Mother | Her declining health puts strain on the family |
| Yanna | Younger sibling; second oldest | Helps care for Mirto and Lunka |
| Mirto | Younger sibling | Becomes restless as the family struggles |
| Lunka | Youngest sibling | Shares a particularly close bond with Coen |
This is the family introduced in Bandai Namco: Coen’s Roots, not an account of their endings. The bulletin calls Coen a young man but does not give an exact age, so this page does not infer one from his appearance.
| Character | Connection | Pay attention to |
|---|---|---|
| Anca | Teacher and herbalist | What she knows beyond everyday village life |
| Lacra | An ally with a private agenda | Whether your aims really align |
| Marat | Resistance leader | Trust earned through actions |
These are spoiler-light roles from Bandai Namco: Forging Connections, not a guarantee that every alliance ends well.
