- "Am I too young to be taken seriously? Why are my actions always considered wrong to adults? I wanna be a hero too!"
Characteristics - Forrest is the overly ecstatic archetype in the main group. If there is some innocence needed, Forrest is there to fill the void. Although he is twelve years old, he has the mindset of a ten-year-old due to the fact that he became an orphan seven years prior. No adult was able to take care of him besides his young peers. He loves guns and anything involving ammunition, but due to being underaged, he's only allowed a BB gun and a toy bazooka. His favorite activity is acting like a hero for unspoken reasons until later in the story.
Appearance - Forrest's main color scheme is blue. He likes to wear short, tattered attire because it is easier to run around with them. He has goggles dangling around his neck although he rarely uses them now that they're too small. Later, he gains a cubed bazooka that can inflate just as large as him. One highly notable garment that he has is his yellow cape that was given by Jess. It represents a future fortune that he must conquer to become a true hero.

Story plot (contains spoilers) -
Forrest appears after the first arc within the Village of Saradeli. He meets Felix and Rina in an alleyway in Kyrie, begging for food. However, his innocent face was completely fake as he only used it to get food easier. Felix learns about Forrest and his group's past and he offered to get leftover bread from the store nearby.
Waking up the next morning, Forrest forced himself to join Felix to find Jess. He considered this another heroic game, but Sydney mocked him. When finding Jess at the central tree, Forrest hears stories about how Felix is a fugitive. Forrest tells him that Felix is no hero after all, and so Forrest runs away in agony.
Later when Felix's group returns to Kyrie, Forrest attempts to turn him in to the Gammel soldiers. The strategy backfires when Floir decided to take Forrest captive as well. The group was set free (kind off) with the help of Jess and the large, angry bear. She tells him that Felix is no fugitive, and that he should be trusted.
Down at the waterfall of Silver Forest, Forrest opens up to Felix for the first time as they bond throughout their walk in the forest. He thoroughly tells Felix, Lydia, and Rina about his past, still unsure about what happened to his parents seven years ago. Besides Jess, Sydney, and Spencer, Forrest was the only other child to make it through their long walk past the Silver Forest and up the waterfall. Jess gives each person a cape, and states that Forrest's yellow cape indicated: "Yellow stabilizes between the heart of what is right and what is wrong. However, what seems wrong can be the right thing to do. When your most loved one may fall, like a crackle in the ground, you will learn to pick yourself up no matter what."
At the Isolated House, Forrest is the first to get frightened by Leo's armor.
On the train ride, Forrest rejoices with Felix and the two of them save Garnett from the train fire. They took her to her house at Ouli Brye, and then the boys left to regroup with Lydia, Rina, and Leo.
At the Ouli Brye market, Forrest begs for a toy bazooka but Rina said nobody has money. Leo sneaks money into the stall and buys the toy bazooka, requesting that Felix should give it to him later in the day.
When arriving at the capital of Ouli Brye, Rina commanded that Forrest and Lydia should hide somewhere hidden until they returned after asking the king important questions. However, Garnett kidnapped both him and Lydia and they were sent to the capital's basement.
In the basement, Lieutenant Floir appeared and offered to train Forrest and she would hand over two shards. This seems like a win-win situation for Forrest.
Forrest uses his newly infused toy bazooka and destroys several parts of the capital docks, causing a division between each of the main group, the Gammel army, and the Lennox army.
After the separation of the main group, Forrest becomes wary of the destruction that he's able to cause with a cubed bazooka. Leo quickly cheers him up.
At the Lake City Prima, character development ensues, revealing that Forrest would prefer poorer food than fancier food, and that he would prefer more dangerous roller coaster rides although he is underaged. He has no interest in auction houses, however.
After the auction house when the group tries to chase after Floir, Forrest accidentally crashes into Bailey, then persistently tries to invite the child to join his adventure. Bailey refuses, and Forrest is forced to keep moving forward to catch Floir.
Upon reaching Floir, she states that she has Forrest's friends captive, causing complete turmoil to Forrest.
In the Aria River, Forrest struggles to fight against one of the soldiers down a mud path while helping pass down the green shard of Instinct.
During the Troiya and Bafuul arcs, Forrest acts as a son towards Rina in order to enter Troiya. After the laboratory, his cubed bazooka was temporarily broken until it dried up in the Bafuulian jail cell. He helped knock out a guard from within the cell with the support of his cubed bazooka. Inflating itself out of the jail cell, the cubed bazooka was also used to destroy the nearby cameras. Stealing the keys from the guard, the group freed themselves.
Forrest is also responsible for saving Warren and his three friends, Jess, Sydney, and Spencer. Still, he persistently invites Bailey to join his group.
At the Grandine Hillage, Forrest takes an interest in Luna and Orlando's history because of their heroism.
When reaching the Hollow Cavern, Jess gives him the talk about saving Bailey. From here on, Forrest finally realizes that Bailey is the person from his yellow cape fortune. Now he must save Bailey or else it's too late!
In the Village of Saradeli, Forrest finds Jess and Bailey talking to each other. As Bailey escapes from surprise, Forrest becomes frustrated with Jess for not letting him know sooner that Bailey had arrived in the village.
Forrest gets left behind at the village, but he eavesdrops on the main group's next plan. At Vector, Forrest makes a surprise reappearance in an attempt to save Bailey.
Once Viola joined, Forrest became entirely afraid of Viola and agrees with Rina's distrust in Viola without any of his own valid reasons.
At the Li'Opa Jungles, Forrest makes new tapir friends named Billy and Booby.
In Lament, Forrest struggles to persuade Bailey to stray away from the Gammel government. In an attempt to do so, he almost gets injured in the process by Bailey, ironically.
In the City of Celestia, Forrest pairs up with Warren, learning that Warren had an even worse childhood than Forrest. In an attempt to make him feel better, Forrest decides to give Warren another chance to experience what it's like to be a kid again.
Forrest returns from the Celestia separation as a maid... wearing a maid outfit in Phardia. He gets set free after Viola gives a fake kiss to the mayor.
After seeing the Frolix Volcano, Forrest becomes upset that Warren wanted to sacrifice himself, especially thinking that his group of friends had died during the Celestia separation.
During the Wiserheim coliseum tournament, Forrest creates the name of "Unicorn Party" for the main group's team.
Futher into the story, Forrest discovers that Jess journeyed to Magnus' tower on her own. Forrest becomes antsy and vows to follow her to the top, only to find out that it was too late. He watches as Bailey uncontrollably stabs Jess by the stomach and she says her goodbyes to him, telling him that this was the foretelling of his cape.
From the aftermath, Forrest returns to the Village of Saradeli, devastated and upset, but in the end, he forces himself to smile and move on.
At the battle of Lament, Forrest continuously watches as mutants and human beings kill one another. This was the turning point for him in order to push forward, and to not look back to his fears. He also participates in fighting against the large octopus monster which had Igor's face.
As he returns to Saradeli again, he is prompt against a battle with the giant bear that went rampage in the beginning of the story.
In the end after Zozna, Forrest makes it out alive and decides to live in the Village of Saradeli with his friends, including Lydia and all of the adults in order to bring youth and life to the village.
