The heroic… Hero Bowie is a mighty, powerful, and brave leader of the great Shining Force. He is on a quest to save his country, Grans, and to reveal the secrets of the past. While he isn’t successful in that regard, he does get a giant sword, gets to beat up on Krakens and giant robots, and gets all the beautiful ladies he wants. Isn’t that about all a man needs? Well, besides a kingdom to rule all on his own, and godlike status among the citizens of the world… not much. He can give his enemies a lightning bolt to the eyeballs or just hit them with his massive glowing sword. Either way, he knows how to inflict pain.
