He is a travelling [[martial artist]] and the first to join the {{Hero 6}} on his quest. The two of them work together as a part of the [[Somnia (Upper World)|Somnian military]] in the war against [[Murdaw]] before discovering the mystery of the [[Lower World|Lower]] and [[Upper World]]s.

{{spoiler|start}}Carver appears in the cold opening alongside the hero and [[Milly]]. Their assault on Murdaw ends in disaster when the leathery wizard turns them to stone, resulting in the Hero falling out of bed and awakening from a nightmare.  
{{spoiler|start}}Carver appears in the cold opening alongside the {{Hero 6}} and [[Milly]]. Their assault on Murdaw ends in disaster when the leathery wizard turns them to stone, resulting in the Hero falling out of bed and awakening from a nightmare.  


The {{Hero 6}} next encounters Carver in {{Somnia U}} after bumping into him and again during the initiation trial at [[Gardsbane Tower]]. Carver wishes the Hero good luck and hopes the best man wins, which is noticed by the test supervisors as the kind of cooperation the Somnian military is looking for. Newly pressed into service, Carver and the {{Hero 6}} are first sent to investigate rumors of a ferocious mustang menacing the countryside, which results in the duo gaining ownership of Peggy Sue and the castle's finest [[Wagon]]. The duo's next assignment has them search for any clues as to the location of [[Ra's Mirror]]: the journey gives insight into Carver's excellent carpentry skill, and results in a reunion with [[Milly]] in a [[Lower World]].

Carver wishes the Hero good luck and hopes the best man wins, which is noticed by the test supervisors as the kind of cooperation the {{Somnia U}}n military is looking for. Newly pressed into service, Carver and the {{Hero 6}} are first sent to investigate rumors of a ferocious mustang menacing the countryside, which results in the duo gaining ownership of Peggy Sue and the castle's finest [[Wagon]]. The duo's next assignment has them search for any clues as to the location of [[Ra's Mirror]]: the journey gives insight into Carver's excellent carpentry skill, and results in a reunion with [[Milly]] in a [[Lower World]].


After a lengthy discourse with [[Madame Luca Luminesta]], joining with [[Ashlynn]], fighting fake [[Murdaw]], and getting ownership of a legendary vessel through the help of [[Nevan]], Carver joins the {{Hero 6}} in the second siege of [[Murdaw's Keep]]. In the castle Carver discovers a statue of his exact likeness, and upon touching it fuses with the stone--his original body [[Murdaw]] stripped from him in the game's opening. Realizing that "he" was the idealized version of himself, Carver comes to terms with the reality of the situation and his past as the runaway son of a master craftsman who dreamed of becoming a legendary martial artist. Carver's inner fire burns brighter after becoming whole, and learns [[Knuckle Sandwich]].

The player will receive the special [[Accolade]] '''Punk-Haired Pugilist''' if the {{Hero 9}} wears all parts of Carver's costume. However, it is only possible for a male Hero to earn this Accolade because Carver's Vest and Shorts are marked as male only and not even the [[Wear-with-all award]].

*Carver's syntax is significantly different between {{IX}}, where he speaks with a Cockney accent similar to [[Yangus]], and {{VI}} were he speaks with no discernible accent but peppers his sentences with nautical phrases and terms used in carpentry. This discrepancy can be attributed to the two games being localized by [[Plus-Alpha]] and [[8-4 ltd]], respectively.
