"I wanted to trade treasure from every corner of this here world and bring people together. I lost sight of that dream after becomin' a pirate. But these days... it's all I be thinkin' about." —To Leon Bastralle


Baltazar is a character in Octopath Traveler. This famed pirate was Leon Bastralle's close friend and rival.

Profile[]

Appearance[]

Baltazar wore dark clothing and an eyepatch, with a hooded blue cloak draped over his shoulders.

Personality[]

Baltazar was once a greedy and daring pirate captain, challenging Leon to greater feats of daring. Eventually, however, Baltazar came to seek more than amassing treasure and fame, and he began to seek a "true" treasure of lasting value. In the end, he dreamed of setting aside the pirate's life and setting sail as a merchant instead, though he perished in a dangerous test of skill before he could enact these reforms.

Story[]

Baltazar and Leon Bastralle were formerly infamous pirate captains. The two were childhood friends, having grown up in poverty together. As a child Baltazar had dreamt of becoming a merchant, and he soon realized his life as a pirate was backwards from that goal.

13 years prior to the events of Octopath Traveler, after confessing to Leon about his dream, Baltazar challenged Leon to a race. If Leon won, he would claim the Eldrite, and if he lost, he had to give Baltazar "his most precious treasure." Leon lost the race; however, Baltazar died, his ship wrecked on the coast. Leon cast off his life as a pirate and rebuilt Baltazar's ship, becoming a merchant in his stead.

Etymology[]

"Baltazar" is a name of Akkadian origin, meaning "Bel protects the king." It has since come to mean simply "protect the king," and is often attributed to one of the Biblical magi (wise men). This name's connotations of grandeur reflect Baltazar's fame and association with precious treasure.

Trivia[]

  • According to Leon, Victors Hollow was Baltazar's home.
  • When Baltazar faces forward or to the left, his eyepatch is on his right eye. However, when he faces to the right, his eyepatch is on his left eye.
  • Both the Antique Dealer NPC and Leon in Tressa's Chapter 3 refer to Baltazar as "of the Eastern Seas," which is strange considering that Baltazar's hometown of Victors Hollow is located in the far west.
