Ring of the Holy Knight augments his already high mobility and adds a few additional tricks. Ring of the Sage Lord lets him equip the weapon with the best match-ups to foes that attack him and can give him a wide assortment of weapon proficiencies. Ring wise, Vander is mainly best as a defensive unit, thus Ring of the Radiant Hero provides the powerful Great Aether engage skill to reduce damage, damage enemies in a field with the most powerful Greataxe available, and can restore health. If looking to use Vander longterm, the Great Knight class obtained through a Second Seal also can be worth moving him into to capitalize on his two strongest non-HP stats. Vander overall is best suited to remain in his default class as he is competent enough when he is in the chapters where he is one of your only options. He is a powerful support in the early game when paired with Alear but due to the effect only supporting if Alear is deployed, it can be an empty skill if they are not in the battle. His Personal Skill Alabaster Duty grants Crit+5 to both himself and Alear if he is adjacent to them. Vander starts off as a Paladin giving him the Cavalry Battle Style, which equates to more movement. As such, Vander quickly falls off and with only 19 levels to work with before he hits the natural cap and requires a Second Seal to continue forward, he also becomes something of a EXP sponge, giving him far less returns on kills for the maps where he is one of the stronger units base wise and has greater difficulty keeping up with other units who when invested give more consistent returns in the later game. With that said, he suffers from the trope's greatest flaw of having some of the lowest growths in the game with his starting growths for Speed and Defense stats having Growth Rates of 35 and are his highest aside from a Growth Rate of 60 for his HP. Vander is similar to those of the Jagen Archetype being a strong starting unit already in an advanced class with slightly higher starting stats making him a valuable damage soaker for some of the initial maps of the game.

He is strict with both Framme and Clanne as they are his successors when he eventually leaves his role. Vander takes great pride in his role as the Steward of the Dragon and as such approaches his care with Queen Lumera and Alear with the highest of decorum, scolding Framme and Clanne for their childish outbursts in the presence of the Divine Dragon.
