von Kämpfer, Isaak Fernand

イザーク・フェルナンド・フォン・ケンプファー

Isaak, also known as Panzer Magier, is one of the founders of the Rosenkreuz Orden. He is the individual responsible for constructing Cain's current body, which had suffered permanent damage at the hands of Seth and Abel 900 years prior. Despite his numerous talents, Isaak remains somewhat of an enigma and has operated under various aliases throughout his life. He formerly studied at London University under the name Isaac Butler and was implicated in the incident that resulted in the death of William's fiancé, leading to their mutual expulsion. Since meeting Cain, Isaak has overseen Cain's regeneration and co-led the Orden alongside him, although his true motivations for these actions remain unknown. He enjoys smoking cigarillos and quoting literary works. Isaak rarely appears in public, preferring to delegate the execution of his plans to others. However, when he does engage directly in combat, he demonstrates exceptional prowess and is not easily defeated.
Isaak possesses a wide range of talents and is highly proficient in the application of Lost Technologies. His primary offensive capability is an attack known as the Arrow of Belial, which manifests as a massive sphere of light that fires a multitude of energy bolts at his opponent. He also has the ability to project a nearly impenetrable electromagnetic barrier, called the Shield of Asmoday, around his body. This defense can be deployed at will and is capable of blocking almost any assault. Additionally, Isaak created artificial demons that he can summon to assist him in battle. He commands two types of demons: dwarfs known as "Schatten Kobolds," which appear as small devils hiding within Kämpfer's shadow, and knomes, monstrous worm-like creatures capable of tunneling through the ground at remarkable speeds. The latter type appears only in the novels. His hair, composed of thin mono-carbon fibers, is strong enough to slice through the hardest diamond, serving as another formidable weapon.
According to the novels, Dietrich von Lohengrin is Isaak's protégé, and it is likely under Isaak's guidance that Dietrich acquired the knowledge necessary to create the Death Hunters. Isaak is last seen piloting the Orden's airship while leading an assault on the city of Londinium in Albion. Through the combined efforts of the Church and the Kingdom of Albion, the ship was destroyed, presumably killing him in the resulting explosion.
