'''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 can also be talked to at any time after [[Louie]]'s rescue in the [[Rescue Command Post]] to formally end the game by flying the Rescue Corps and any rescued [[castaway]]s home.

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 [[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 obscuring his eyes. However, his eyes can be seen from the correct angle when zoomed in.

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. Other characters note that Bernard speaks unusually loud.

==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).
