The leader of a mercenary band based near Kahua. Though his physical strength is only slightly above average, due to his quick wit and skill in keeping his intentions unreadable, he is an expert mercenary with many great victories under his belt.He had once studied under the tutelage of a descendent of an ancient Kahuan warrior. In those days, he had been proud, reckless, and fully convinced he was unmatched in combat. After meeting the mercenary who gave him a lesson in humility and put him in his place, he trained under her, learning the combat style he practices today.Believing that, had he not met her, he would have perished long ago, he continues to observe her teachings even after she had passed on. Nanaue decided to fulfill her final wish—that the soul of her ancestor be freed from Rarohenga—and proceeded with a solo investigation.He has the ta moko of ancient Kahuan spellcraft inked into his left arm, which grants him the ability to temporarily incapacitate others or imbue bullets with cursed energy, but he rarely uses these powers.
