Igtenos

The person in Woodrow's Swordian Igtenos Minarde, former head of the Er'ther Army's intelligence unit. Igtenos, like Woodrow, is a calm, cool and logical man. Ever since his death, his soul resides in his Swordian, which became the royal symbol of the Phandarian royal family. In Tales of Destiny Remake, he is stolen by Grebaum after Grebaum kills the King of Phandaria. In a climatic battle between Grebaum and the Swordian Masters, Grebaum tries to use God's Eye to unleash his full power(he couldn't because he wasn't a Swordian Master, Igtenos refused to accept him) and lost control of God Eye. The power surge damaged his Core Crystal so he couldn't speak, though he could hear everything the party and Swordians said around him. As a result, he couldn't tap into his Swordian abilities. However, he is repaired in a Swordian Room after defeating Ilene at Helarios.
In the remake of Tales of Destiny, Igtenos' voice actor is Taiki Matsuno.
