Duke Pantarei

Duke is the hidden main antagonist in ''Tales of Vesperia. ''Once a renowned hero from The Great War, he began to resent humanity when his friend, an Entelexeia named Elucifur, was sacrificed for the sake of the future of humans. What's more, he found out that the Ancients had tried to destroy the Entelexeia in times past because they thought of them as enemies of the blastia, the technology used to convert aer into energy and grant people a better lifestyle, but all the Entelexeia wanted was to restore the balance of aer to avoid a cataclysm called the Adephagos that would manifest. Fed up with the mistreating of the natural spirits, Duke tried to wipe humanity from the planet.
