Vance G. Anhauser

A genius gunsmith, he became the lead gunsmith of the Order at the age of 17. He is considered the father of the current gunpowder technology, as he was the first gunsmith to be able to replicate the original Legendary Arms, Through his interpretation of the ancient Eincrad schematics, he was able to make a replica of these which became known as Forbidden Arms. However, after going into a dispute with how the higher ups from the Order wanted to use the Forbidden Arms, he refused to make more and retired.

Before he retired, he was able to create around 50 Forbidden Arms. Up to date, he is the only one known to be able to make Forbidden Arms, since he has long destroyed their schematics, committing them all to memory. The level of gunpowder technology currently being used is the result of mere attempts at copying his work with the Forbidden Arms.

When he left the Order, he took one of the original Legendary Arm, the revolver Peacemaker, with him, and later gave it to the current owner, Clive. He also told him a secret that only he knows about Peacemaker and its true identity.
