Shida's childhood storyline seems interesting. I don't think he's on CM territory though although I'm still abstaining it. Also spoiler alert for his storyline (Thanks to /u/Reylee):

Light unit is a dude (Trap frontier confirmed :3) from Shida's academy and he's a pretty exceptionally brilliant honours student and his original lore is a pretty tragic one and his lore is basically how the tragedy didn't happen

And Earth unit is a girl (Flat chested girl :3) from Shida's academy and basically a key character of this lore and she was researching something and then got taught about techniques manipulating people's souls and got Shida's involved. And because of this. Shida ended up in Bariura to become a mage there. Her OE lore is basically what if she didn't learn about that soul manipulation technique

The Dark unit is a Demon from Ishgria (Maybe he could be related to Graham after all) and has a skill to manipulate souls but he accidentaly got into Grand Gaia and due to no food that isn't suitable for him in there. He ended up weakening and almost dying in Grand Gaia. And his OE lore is actually what if he survive. (Aah....No Graham indication. Allwell)

And lastly, The Thunder unit is basically Shida's first experiment when he was using that technique. Since he's his first experiment, He wasn't really that great. But his OE lore is basically if Shida learned further more about the Soul Manipulation technique and enhanced him even further.

So they're kind of interesting though.........Kind of wanting to see how they're skillsets looks like and I'm still unsure if Shida's a Complete Monster or not Hmmmm.............
