"Well then, care to wager who the winner will be?"

A musical instructor from another world, with a body somewhere between bird and man. Gandharva relishes in the night life, and Tokyo Casino is his home away from home. More than anything else, gambling is his passion, particularly high stakes games played against live opponents rather than simple slots, and he thrives on chasing thrills with a reckless, frenzied energy. Though his work as a musical instructor is largely a way to fund his gambling, he does truly enjoy music and enjoys the company of those who play great music.

The die Gandharva carries are blessed by the Water Goddess to eliminate interference by calculation and alter probability, making chance the sole deciding factor of fate. When the die clatter to the ground and raises their eyes to the heavens, he grins like a madman. That single moment that carries the possibility of glorious victory, or losing it all, is more pleasurable to him than a lover's embrace could ever be. For the sort of risk-averse person who doesn't know that ecstasy, he feels only pity.
