Member of the Gryphon Knights[]
Originally a lieutenant, Aliste fought alongside Beowulf who considered Aliste his most trusted soldier and a worthy rival. Aliste was overjoyed when Beowulf announced his engagement to Reis Duelar. However, when Beowulf was exiled by Celebrant Bremondt, he was promoted to captain.
Bremondt's plan[]
Aliste's defeat.
Aliste realized he was suffering from a terminal illness. Deciding he wanted to die fighting Beowulf, Aliste agreed to kidnap Reis for Celebrant Bremondt. When Beowulf and Reis visit Lionel with Ramza, Aliste kidnaps her, much to Beowulf's surprise. Aliste tells him to come to Lionel Castle if he wants to see her again.
Beowulf and Ramza arrive at the castle. When they see the open gate, they realize it is a trap, prompting Aliste to appear before them. A fight ensues between them, and Aliste is slain. In his dying breath, he explains to Beowulf how he wanted to die fighting him, before the disease could take his life. Beowulf, upset at his friend's death, proceeds onward to kill the man who had used his friend like this.
