Cahara

The Mercenary is a playable character from the game "Fear and Hunger". He will do whatever brings silver to his table. This character is mostly known for his dirty battle tactics and his crafty ways of gaining advantage.

The Mercenary a blue-haired and leather armored young man, who is keen on fighting with a short sword.

Gameplay
The Mercenary starts the game with a short sword (+10 Attack) and leather vest (+20 Defense) equipped. The mercenary has the endless soul, and can learn the Lockpick, Steal, Backstab, and Dash skills, although the mercenary encountered in-game doesn't have any of these skills. They can wear any type of armor and equip any weapon.

The skills that the Mercenary starts with are dependent on what choices the player makes during their introduction. They have the potential to learn Steal or Lockpick depending on what profession they choose: They also have the option to learn the Backstab skill when their brigade is ambushed. The final choice to rush towards the mission grants the Mercenary the Dash skill, but unlike the other starting characters, the Mercenary doesn't have to forgo any other rewards in their introduction to get this skill.
 * Becoming a pickpocket teaches them the Steal skill, which allows them to steal items in the middle of battle that can't be found otherwise.
 * Becoming a burglar teaches them the Lockpick skill, which allows them to open some locked doors or chests for free.
 * Living an an honest life gives them 30 silver coins.
 * Abandoning their comrades teaches them the Backstab skill. Pressing SHIFT to back-stab an enemy right behind them allows the Mercenary's party to ambush them, preventing them from attacking for the first turn in combat.
 * Fighting to the last breath rewards them with 30 silver coins.

These skills give the player an advantage in gathering resources in the first choice, or a major advantage in combat in the second choice. This combined with the option to replace those skills with coins provides the player with great versatility in how playing the Mercenary gives them an advantage over other characters, at the cost of risking an arm before they even set foot in the dungeon.

Lore
The Mercenary, called Cahara in-game, was born and grew up without parents in Jettaiah. They joined a band of mercenaries at some point. Cahara has a relationship with a woman named Celeste, who works at a brothel. Celeste is pregnant, which may be a factor in his decision to take the job of finding Le'garde. They're drawn to the dungeon when the kingdom of Rondon offers a steep bounty for the return of Le'garde.

Cahara can be found in the upper left cell in the level 3 prisons. He explains briefly that he's on a mission to find a man before asking to join your party. This seems to be a ruse; as soon as the player transitions to a new area, he'll leave, taking some of your supplies with him. He can be found again at the passageway from the mines to the level 7 catacombs. The player can either call him out on his trick to attack him, or let him join the party permanently.

Cahara doesn't seem to be strongly tied to the Dungeons of Fear & Hunger. True to his title, he's just a mercenary who was hired to find somebody while a much greater scheme was taking place.
