Bio and story: Once a sacred knight devoted to the Holy Order of Nordenland, the young knight was exiled after his kingdom fell under the charms of a new mathriarchal order ruled by the Motherly Amazons. Andrew started a new life as an adventurer on hire, lending his fighting skills and anti-demon abilities to villages in need, usaually under payment of the right fee but always on a path of straightening the wrongs.
His travels have lead him to this Far East corner of the world where, oddly, most of the demons, monsters, evil mages and bad guys in general appears to be, in fact, bad ladies. And sultry seductive ladies at it. Not a good thing for a young hero who is more flustered than he would like to admit around women. Not good news for the wannabe-tough young hero, who is resolute but still an easily flustered boy around women, not to mention around heavenly or evil seductresses.
Being champions of the same fighting style as Ryu, and very similar job too, Andy considered the younf Dragon as his rival for a period of time, until they both played a main role the lucky-sensational defeat of the dreaded Demon King, which cemented a new friendship with Ryu, Ataru and Okami. As they say, the best friends are found on a battlefield.

Personality: A strong looking young guy, Andrew is valiant an generous... and totally too brave and adventurous for his own good. Surprisingly for a wandering knight, the young guy is quite awkward around women, some of them finding it actually cute, some others finding it just... well awkward.
Not the typical soldier of fortune, Andy will always try to find peaceful solutions to fights, persuaded (exhausted) by Ryu into believing that pacific coexistence between humans, angels, demons, witches, monstergirls is possible.
He is still a man of action though, quick to anger and quick to forgiveness. At war or even in some inn rumble, he will always stand on the side of the weak and innocent. Still a true knight at heart, though a relativily easily deceived one because of his hot temper.

Abilities:  As expected from a knight, Andy is a skillful swordman, but what made him a name around the Fighters Guilds is his peculiar ability in bare handed combat. Trained as he was, since childhood, to become the future master of Westerlands in the ancient art of spiritual pressure fighting style that uses a warrior's spiritual energy to enhance his attacking speed and strenght.
-Main downfall to this strong technique: it requires a particular concentration technique known as serene mind state. A seduced wielder won't be able to use the technique properly, and a seductive opponent might easily sway the spiritual pressure from his fist to...other body parts.
But after all, how many chances are there that your enemy will try to seduce you during a fight? o///o
