Sage is known as the Warrior of Light. He wears the Armor of Halo. He is very cunning and intelligent and seems to be the complete opposite of Cale with respect to powers. The Armor of Halo draws power from the element of light, which is spiritually linked to him through the virtue of Wisdom(EV) and Grace(JV and OVA). His weapon is the No-Datchi, a massive battle sword. His armor has the power to heal others as well as the ability to create light. Sage's special attack is "THUNDERBOLT CUT!"(EV) or "Lightning Strike"(JV and OVA) which is a massive bolt of energy shot forth from his sword at an enemy. Sage has no real weaknesses. While he is intelligent he will sometimes spend to much time thinking which will leave him open to attack. Cale's powers over darkness seems to be able to fight Sage to a draw most of the time. Wisest of the Ronin Warriors, Sage figured out that although the Ronin armors came from Talpa, it was what was inside the wearer that made the armor a force of good or evil. Sage lives with his parents and helps his father run the family dojo.

Yayoi: Sage's older sister by five years. During the TV series she was a medical school student. She uses formal language like Sage, and is said to be a talented kendo practitioner as well. Yayoi teases Sage so much, that it makes it very hard
for him to talk with girls.

siblings, and doesn't seem to have much interest in Kendo. She calls Sage "Ni-Chan."
