William is a playable character in Eternal Return.

Play Tip[]

William can quickly move, sliding without missing a single ball and delivering powerful pitches befitting of a star pitcher.

Background[]

I won't let them off the hook.

A major league pitcher. William was always serious in his training, constantly improving himself.

Often clashed with his younger brother, who had the same dream but was in his shadow. It was enough to damage his image.

One day, he got into an argument with his brother that resulted in an unfortunate accident. William left baseball on his own, and no one knew where he was for the next three years.

He has a strong sense of responsibility and tries to take on everything, which often leads to friction. His serious demeanor makes it difficult for people to get to know him.

He seems to think that everything that happened to his brother was his fault.
