Sepka Chlad

Alias: The Tactician of the Cliffs
Era: Modern Geba
Affiliation: Yuvaari; Team Chlad Leader

Sepka Chlad led Team Chlad through the infamous inland Thazvaar tournament, completing every objective despite the loss of one Holder during a mountain-phase capture. His leadership was defined by calm execution, seamless adaptation, and mastery of terrain synergy under extreme pressure.

In the final duel—a rare format invoked only when multiple teams are tied or when two achieve perfect scores—each team selects one fighter to face a duelist chosen by their opponents. Most teams select a Holder, as they are the physically dominant role: heavier, stronger, and statistically superior in duels due to their capacity to absorb damage and overpower opponents through mass and endurance.

Team Katasung made an unorthodox decision: selecting their leader, Tae Katasung. Team Chlad mirrored the call, fielding Sepka himself. Leader-versus-leader duels are nearly unheard of, as captains typically avoid direct combat to preserve their strategic value during live relay adaptation and command. But this was the final decision point of the Inland Thazvaar Festival Tournament—there would be no more rounds. What followed was definitive. Tae overwhelmed Sepka with calculated precision, confirming the Katasung team’s absolute dominance and altering the expectations of leadership in the sport forever.

Though defeated, Sepka Chlad’s leadership remains a tactical benchmark. His composure, adaptive intelligence, and creative use of each role continue to shape training doctrines across Geba.
