'''Bernard''' is the pilot of the [[Rescue Corps]]. Once the player has collected {{sparklium|p4|7,000}} and Bernard has been rescued, the player will gain access to [[Hero's Hideaway]].

'''Bernard''' is the only member of the [[Rescue Corps]] not found in a normal way, as he is actually found as a leafling, more specifically a purple leafling. He is always the third [[leafling]] from a [[Dandori Battle]] to be cured, meaning [[Minor characters#Dash|Dash]] and [[Minor characters#Corgwin|Corgwin]] must be cured first.

==Personality and Appearance==
Bernard is short and dark-skinned with a oval-shaped head, slicked-back and spiked purple hair with three points, pointy ears, and blue-lensed aviators completely obscuring his eyes. However, with the right camera angle, you can see his eyes.

Bernard is quite enthusiastic and usually upbeat. He is stated by Shepherd to be a scrupulous flier despite his boisterous personality. When the player speaks to Bernard, he's quick to dole out advice and compliment them on what they do well. He has a unique way of speaking, specifically capitalizing random words in the English version.

==Naming==
Bernard's name alludes to {{w|St. Bernard (dog)|St. Bernard}}s. [[Minor characters#Santi|Santi's]] does as well, with his name being an anagram of "saint." This double allusion references the fact that Bernard and Santi have been in close contact ever since birth (much to Santi's chagrin).

==Trivia==
*Bernard is stated by Yonny to be a rather picky eater.
*According to Collin, Bernard once piloted a 20,000-hour-long flight.
*Bernard earned his place on the Rescue Corps team after Shepherd witnessed Bernard proving himself to be a fast deliveryman, despite not being the actual person assigned this task.
