{{SpoilerEnd}}
=== Personality ===
Towa is a kind, cheerful, yet serious hard-working girl. She takes her role as Student Council President very seriously and is not afraid to chide others when she thinks they are doing the wrong thing. However, Towa also shows an independent streak and has the habit of over-working herself and taking on more jobs than a ordinary person can do by herself to the point that she sometimes forgoes sleep to do it. Despite this, Towa is universally liked by both students and faculty. She is friendly, kind-hearted, and generous with her time, even though she often finds herself swamped with tasks. Many regard her as a workaholic, and her friends often express concern for her. She is modest and humble despite her academic success and invaluable work ethic.
Towa cares a lot about her friends Angelica, Crow and George, having shown worry when Angelica is pulled from the academy and wonders how she is doing before they are reunited. She was shocked by Crow's betrayal, but expressed faith that he would return, before being saddened by his eventual death. Likewise, she finds it hard to believe George is a member of the Gnomes and his claim that he killed Angelica. Though this claim is later revealed to be false, she likewise still believes George would be able to redeem himself.
In Trails of Cold Steel II, Towa shows exemplary leadership skills as captain of the Courageous. However, during the course of her Bonding Events, Towa also shows doubts about whether she could be a good captain or not, as well as, concerns over her own lack of combat ability and power.
She is quite sensitive about her height. It is also implied that she is not very tolerant to alcoholic drinks.
=== Background ===
Towa grew up in the Herschel's General Store, located in [[Heimdallr/Vesta Street|Vesta Street]], [[Heimdallr]]. Towa's grandfather was a famous astronomer and director of the [[Imperial Museum]] in the [[Heimdallr/Leica District|Leica District]]. Both her parents were also scholars, but died during an aircraft accident on their way back from an international congress in [[Crossbell]]. Her grandfather and aunt, [[Herschel Family|Martha]], took over custody over the orphaned Towa. Her grandfather passed away a couple of years before the start of {{G|Sen III}}.
Due to her hate for war, Towa decided to enroll at Thors Military Academy. Her decision had also been seconded by her grandfather, who had influenced her to achieve her aspirations in her life.
On her first year at Thors on S.1203, Towa was selected to take part of a 'prototype Class VII' together with [[Angelica Rogner]], [[Crow Armbrust]], and [[George Nome]]. She was chosen with the reason that she excels well in analytics, communication and dissemination of information such as how she figured out the conspiracy happening inside the Reinford Group around September S.1204. As a member of Prototype Class VII, she also passed the required aptitude test for the Arcus Units.
Just like the Class VII, they were thrown out into the other parts of the country for their field studies. They exceeded the expectations of the academy's Board and resulted to the establishment of the first Class VII on s. 1204. After her first year at Thors, Towa earned the seat of Student Council President due to her influence and ability to work well in extra-curricular and academics, and earned the esteem of aristocrats and commoners. She was also keenly eyed by several agencies across the empire who were waiting for her graduation to have a chance to recruit her.
=== {{g|Sen I}} ===
Towa is first introduced as the student council president and one of Class VII's upper classmen. She has been friends with [[George Nome]], [[Crow Armbrust]] and [[Angelica Rogner]] since their first year. She accompanies George Nome at the entrance of the academy for the Opening Ceremony in which they greet the incoming freshmen including the entire Class VII.
She was quickly established as an extremely hard worker. As [[Rean Schwarzer]] did not choose a club to spend time at, he opted to work with the Student Council. Towa quickly set him off to work fulfilling requests in both the academy and around [[Trista]]. She appreciated all the work he did for her.
On the first day of the annual Summer festival held in Heimdallr on July 26, S.1204, Towa accompanied Angelica and both rode the latter's orbal bike from Trista. They later met up with Rean's group at Dreichels Plaza just to see the ongoing festival and Crow after he ate his fill at Vainqueur Street. As the time passed by, they noticed the rising water level of Anor River and the fountain's water overflow. The incident eventually evolved into the flooding of the plaza added by the panics of the tourists. Towa, Angelica, and Crow told the Class VII to head into the Crystal Palace to secure Princess Alfin while the trio will help evacuate the affected people at the plaza.
After her successful involvement at the Summer Festival, Towa earned a spot as a representative assistant at the upcoming [[West Zemuria Trade Conference]] held at the former Crossbell State. She never expected it to happen and it was a source of mild anxiety. She also reveals to Rean that she had also helped out with other major government and business projects before. Towa is then later seen seated in the imperial family's train heading to Crossbell. During the terrorist attacks on Crossbell and [[Garrelia Fortress]], Towa helps out with the evacuation at the conference.
Later on, as the ILF was attempting to fire the Railway Guns at Garrelia Fortress, the conference was interrupted by the ILF and other minor terrorist groups. The turmoil was later resolved by the [[Special Support Section]] and Class VII at Garrelia Fortress. She would later on personally thanked the Class VII especially Rean for their efforts on stopping the terrorist at the fortress. She stated that if not for them, she would not be there talking to him.
After the presumed end of the ILF, Towa focused more on the organization of the School Festival. Her expression was even seen brighter than usual since it will be their last year. When Class VII has trouble deciding on what to do, Towa shows Rean a video clip of what she and her friends did for the festival the previous year - a rock concert. During the school festival preparations, Towa later becomes shocked when a barrier suddenly erupts around the [[Old Schoolhouse]] and waits while Class VII deal with it. Yet at the end of its first day, she was prepared to shut down the festival if the anomalies at the Old Schoolhouse was not resolved before midnight, which fortunately did not happen. She then becomes one of the few privy to see the [[Divine Knight]], [[Valimar]]. After the events with Valimar's discovery, Towa is seen as one of the audience members at Class VII's live concert and can even be one of Rean's dance partners, if the player so chooses.
Towa and George would later blockade the gate of the academy at the start of the civil war. She was ordered by the staff not to let the students go out as they intercept the Noble Alliance's forces in the west of Trista. Yet she permitted the Class VII to help their instructors, but after that, she along with the other students of the academy, was brought into custody by the Alliance.
=== {{g|Sen II}} ===
{{Main|Erebonian Civil War}}
During [[Giliath Osborne]]'s national address regarding the disappearance of Garrelia Fortress, Towa along with the rest of the school watches Crow assassinates Osborne. She then becomes shocked as she sees that Crow had been working for the [[Imperial Liberation Front]] this whole time. When Trista is about to be invaded by the [[Noble Alliance]]'s [[Panzer Soldat]] units, Towa and George help gather and evacuate Trista's citizens into the main school building. She is then last seen wishing Class VII good luck as they run off to help save the town.
In October 29, S.1204, Thors Military Academy was finally captured by the Noble Alliance. Towa, George, and other students and faculty were able to escape the academy. Some managed on the day of the assault while Towa and George were assisted by Principal Vandyke who somehow was able to communicate with Prince Olivert and the Courageous and took the duo on board.
Towa would later assist the crew since they don't have sufficient numbers to operate the ship. On her tenure, Viscount Arseid saw her potential to commandeer the ship in his stead and she held the position momentarily on their rescue for Rean Schwarzer and Princess Alfin Reise Arnor in December 13, S.1204.
Later that day, she along with George and the Class VII were asked for what would be their role in the war. They responded and sought to eliminate it completely and then the Prince decided to hand over the Courageous to the Thors students. Victor relinquishes control of the [[Courageous]] to Towa and makes her the new captain. Towa then serves as the captain of the Courageous until she participates in the battle to reclaim Trista and Thors Military Academy. During Class VII's assault on the [[Infernal Castle]], Towa assisted the group by distracting the [[Pantagruel]] for them.
With the conclusion of the civil war, Towa meets with Rean and has a talk with him about Crow's death. She then comforts and consoles Rean as he finally cries and lets out all of the pain and sorrow that he had been holding back since Crow's death; and also forgives Rean for not being able to save Crow. Towa then cheers him by offering him helpful advice that allows Rean to get over his problems. Calming him down, Towa reveals to Rean that while she has been given many wonderful opportunities as a result of her role in the civil war, she wants to take a year to explore her options before picking a permanent career. Towa then becomes a potential party member for the final dungeon and graduates from Thors at the end of the game.
=== {{g|Sen III}} ===
Following her graduation, Towa is scouted by numerous organisations, starting with the [[Railway Military Police]], hoping to make use of her brilliance. She decides to garner experience by working for numerous NGOs instead. It is the political unrest in [[Erebonia]] that motivates her to continue her professional career as the Instructor of Class IX at [[Thors Branch Campus]], where she wishes to spread the original spirit of her own alma mater, [[Thors Military Academy]].
Towa is the instructor of Class IX - Military Finance. She accompanies the rest of the students on board the [[Derfflinger]] on their field studies around the empire. Towa participates in the battle at the [[Gral of Erebos]] where she takes on [[George Nome|her former friend]].
=== {{g|Sen IV}} ===
Following the start of the [[Great Twilight]], Towa was placed into custody and held at the Cayenne mansion at [[Ordis]]. She had felt a connection to Rean when Class VII reached out to him through their ARCUS orbments, but shook it off as a dream. She was relieved that Rean and the others were fine, before noticing Crow among them. After a brief fight, Rossweise returned to Angelica, and Towa was happy to see that another friend had returned to her, departing with Class VII on Gaius' Merkabah.
When Class VII went to reclaim the branch campus from the main academy, Towa was contacted by Jessica and Wayne, who proceeded to contact the remaining branch students to arrive at the campus as support.
She later witnessed George and Sharon's fight against Class VII. Towa witnessed George's attempted suicide and Angelica's interception. She told George that he was her friend, and that she would restrain him to make him carry his burdens if necessary.
The day before the [[Great War]], Towa arrived at [[Mishelam Wonderland]] with her friends, where she was annoyed with Angelica for not sharing information with her regarding Crow's disappearance. She then scolded George and Crow for not being up to shape as Thors graduates. When Crow stated that he was exempt as he had not graduated, Towa slyly told him that he could be readmitted and that it would be best if she and Rean taught him.
She later attended the wedding of [[Olivert Reise Arnor]] and [[Scherazard Harvey]].
=== {{g|Hajimari}} ===
Towa is conflicted over whether to stay in her position as an instructor at the branch campus or take up a job offer working for an unnamed NGO. She attends a reunion organised by Angelica for the Thors upperclassmen and wanders around the campus. After a trip with Rean on orbal motorbike, she makes her her mind to take a third path and ends up working for both organizations.
As part of her work with the NGO, Towa is present in Crossbell for the re-independence signing ceremony. She witnesses Rufus Albarea launch a coup and soon after joins the resistance efforts with [[Machias Regnitz]]. She is part of the operation to help relieve [[Sonya Baelz]] at the [[Moon Temple]]. Towa would also take part in the battle of [[Retributive Tower]] as part of the infiltration team.
=== {{g|Kuro II}} ===
Towa's NGO is named as Zemuria Opinion.
Two years after Babel, Towa takes up the role of a teacher at [[Aramis High School]] after being assigned there as part of an international exchange with neighbouring countries and her own personal interest. It is Towa who introduces short-term exchnage students [[Nadia Rayne]] and [[Swin Abel]] to the class as part of their investigation into happenings at Aramis after a message from 'C'. Towa informs them that she knew the original C and does not know who the new one might be. Towa has been relying on [[Bermotti]] for information.
When anti-immigration terrorists take over the school, Towa tries to negotiate, using her status as part of Zemuria Opinion to offer them a chance for their concerns to be heard and the situation resolved peacefully. The leader agrees on the basis of wanting to make their ideals known to the world, and plans to release half of the students whilst keeping the rest hostage. One terrorist refuses to negotiate and shoots a captive Chignon. Towa dives in the path of the bullet and succumbs to her wounds, mentioning Rean, Crow and Class VII in her last moments. Due to the use of the [[Oct-Genesis]] in [[Agnes Claudel]]'s possession, this version of events doesn't come to pass.

The homeroom teacher for Thors' branch campus' Class IX, Towa was an upperclassman to the old Class VII and student council president during her time at Thors. Exceptionally hardworking, she is often relied on by her peers. During the civil war, she played a large role in the Crimson Wings, serving as acting captain of the Courageous. Since becoming Rean's colleague at the branch campus, she has continued to guide her pupils with her special brand of compassion. With the disappearance of Angelica, the reapparance of Crow, and George's involvement with both events, she is now filled with worry over her three closest friends.<ref>{{g|Sen IV}}, Official Website Page ([https://www.nisamerica.com/tocs4/character/towa.php EN]-[https://www.falcom.co.jp/sen4/character/towa.html JP])</ref>

Outside of her work as a teacher, Towa also belongs to an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) where she is engaged in addressing issues like poverty and environmental concerns throughout Zemuria. Although her short stature often leads to her being mistaken for a child, she's extremely intelligent and responsible, to the point where she's been put in charge of numerous operations and negotiations all the way back from her time as a student to the present day. Alongside her old schoolmates, she's been involved in a number of major events and mysterious incidents that took place in western Zemuria, including the Erebonian Civil War.

The student council president of the Military Academy, she is a small senior who looks younger than her age. Although she is of commoner origin, she is extremely hardworking and kind, and suprisingly, even the arrogant noble students tender up when they see her behaviour. She was voted unanimously to become student council president and could not refuse. Although she looks young, she is Rean's senior, and when going through difficult moments she carefully listen to his concerns and give him advice.[4]
The current student council president of the Thors Military Academy, she is quite small and looks younger than her actual age. She is well behaved, has excellent grades, and is recognized by everyone as a hard worker, earning her a lot of respect from those around her, nobles and commoners alike. Her talents were highly praised by the Imperial Government, and she was selected as an attendant on the administrative staff at the West Zemuria Trade Conference held in Crossbell, despite still being a student. As the civil war intensifies, Towa is entrusted with an important mission by a certain person...[5]
A talented and diligent instructor at the branch campus who is far more capable than her especially young appearance suggests. She's the homeroom teacher for Class IX: Military Finance. When she was a student at Thors Military Academy, she was president of the student council. She helped restore order in Heimdallr during the Summer Festival and her talents even got her invited to attend the West Zemuria Trade Conference in Crossbell. During the civil war, she was acting captain of the Courageous. With her leadership qualities, she was a key contributor in the emancipation of the imperial capital. Upon graduating, she received countless job offers, but she instead chose to join various NGO efforts across the Empire in order to better understand the direction the country was headed. Ultimately, her desire to carry on the Thors spirit combined with her fears for the empire's future led her to join Thors' branch campus as one of its instructors.[6]
The homeroom teacher for Thors' branch campus' Class IX, Towa was an upperclassman to the old Class VII and student council president during her time at Thors. Exceptionally hardworking, she is often relied on by her peers. During the civil war, she played a large role in the Crimson Wings, serving as acting captain of the Courageous. Since becoming Rean's colleague at the branch campus, she has continued to guide her pupils with her special brand of compassion. With the disappearance of Angelica, the reapparance of Crow, and George's involvement with both events, she is now filled with worry over her three closest friends.[7]
A young instructor from Thors Military Academy in the Erebonian Empire who has been assigned to a temporary lecturer role at Aramis Academy. Outside of her work as a teacher, Towa also belongs to an NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) where she is engaged in addressing issues like poverty and environmental concerns throughout Zemuria. Although her short stature often leads to her being mistaken for a child, she's extremely intelligent and responsible, to the point where she's been put in charge of numerous operations and negotiations all the way back from her time as a student to the present day. Alongside her old schoolmates, she's been involved in a number of major events and mysterious incidents that took place in western Zemuria, including the Erebonian Civil War. Considering that background, it would be fair to assume that her trip to the Republic is about more than just educational exchange...[8]
An instructor from Erebonia's Thors Military Academy who has been temporarily assigned to teach at Aramis Academy. While petite enough to be mistaken for a student, her remarkable intelligence and operational skills speak to the experience gained since her tenure as Thors' Student Council president, during which she handled fair share of paperwork and negotiations—and at one point, even commanded an airship. Though primarily an educator, she also works with an international non-governmental organization (NGO), where she continues to demonstrate her know-how by tackling issues involving conflict zones and poverty, among others. Recently, she's joined up with her former Thors schoolmates to provide support on their trip to a place her grandfather, a famed astronomer, once visited.[9]
Appearance
Towa is a somewhat petite young woman, who wears her long brown hair tied in a ponytail accented with a blue ribbon. In Trails of Cold Steel and Trails of Cold Steel II, she wears the standard green Thors uniform for commoner students, with the student council armband on her left arm. This uniform is a green blazer with a large white horizontal stripe down the middle when buttoned with a bow-tie on the collar. On the bottom half, she wears a light brown plaid skirt, black tights, and brown shoes.
After returning to teach at Thors Branch Campus in Trails of Cold Steel III, she wears a white instructors' uniform consisting of a white blazer atop a black shirt, a blue neck tie, white skirt, black tights with a short military cadet cap and black gloves.
Two years later, Towa is now slightly taller and wears her now longer hair tied up in a high ponytail. She has blue half-frame glasses and wears a white frilled blouse, cord tie with a yellow gemstone, lime green jacket, matching green slippers and tight-fitting black trousers.
Personality
Towa is a kind, cheerful, yet serious hard-working girl. She takes her role as Student Council President very seriously and is not afraid to chide others when she thinks they are doing the wrong thing. However, Towa also shows an independent streak and has the habit of over-working herself and taking on more jobs than a ordinary person can do by herself to the point that she sometimes forgoes sleep to do it. Despite this, Towa is universally liked by both students and faculty. She is friendly, kind-hearted, and generous with her time, even though she often finds herself swamped with tasks. Many regard her as a workaholic, and her friends often express concern for her. She is modest and humble despite her academic success and invaluable work ethic.
Towa cares a lot about her friends Angelica, Crow and George, having shown worry when Angelica is pulled from the academy and wonders how she is doing before they are reunited. She was shocked by Crow's betrayal, but expressed faith that he would return, before being saddened by his eventual death. Likewise, she finds it hard to believe George is a member of the Gnomes and his claim that he killed Angelica. Though this claim is later revealed to be false, she likewise still believes George would be able to redeem himself.
In the Erebonian Civil War, Towa shows exemplary leadership skills as captain of the Courageous. However, during the course of her Bonding Events, Towa also shows doubts about whether she could be a good captain or not, as well as, concerns over her own lack of combat ability and power.
She is quite sensitive about her height which often make other mistaken her actual age which often make her mad when someone bring the subject about wishing to grow taller and often drink milk. It is also implied that she is not very tolerant to alcoholic drinks.
Trivia
Of the group of second-year friends to Class VII in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 (Towa, George, Angelica and Crow), Towa is the only one who was never adversarial towards Class VII for one reason or another; she is never faced as a boss in any of the games.
Towa Kokonoe from Tokyo Xanadu. In the game Tokyo Xanadu, the protagonist's cousin is named "Towa Kokonoe". This Towa has the exact same physical appearance and a largely identical personality to the Towa in the Kiseki series. Like her Kiseki counterpart, this Towa is also an instructor at a high school. In Japanese her name is written as 永遠 (see above). Tokyo Xanadu also has the fictional video game Magical Alisa in it, which contains Towa Herschel in it, so there are two Towas, for some reason.
Her Brave Order's Japanese name (九重陣/Kokonoe Jin) makes a reference to the last name of this version of Towa.
During the school festival in Trails of Cold Steel, Towa states that "[stargazing] was one of [her] grandpa's hobbies, so [she] kind of picked it up from him." It is also one of Nayuta's favourite hobbies; the game even starts with him peering through a telescope at the sky.
Towa's ultimate weapon in Trails of Cold Steel II is called 'Boundless Trails'; in the Japanse version, the weapon's name is literally 'Nayuta' (星霊銃「那由多」).
Towa means 'eternity; perpetuity; immortality' in Japanese (永遠); the Buddhist term nayuta (那由他, means literally a numeral, meaning one hundred thousand, one million, or ten million) holds the same meaning conceptually.
In 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III, Towa's Brave Order is called Kokonoe Formation, referring to her last name in Tokyo Xanadu.
The Eternity Charm (久遠の御守り) you're rewarded for maximising her bond in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III is a play on her name, which is phonetically identical to 'eternity' (永久).
Towa's bonding trophy in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 is titled "Mentorship".
Towa's bonding trophy in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II is titled "You're Atowable".
Towa's bonding trophy in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III is titled "Faculty Romance".
Towa's bonding trophy in 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 IV is titled "Him & Herschel".
↑On March 31, S.1204 (start of 영웅전설 섬의 궤적), Towa was 18 years old. On October 29, S.1204 (start of 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 II), Towa was still 18 years old. In April S.1206, the start of 영웅전설 섬의 궤적 III, Towa is 21 years old.
