Derrick Berg is a Beyonder of the Sun Pathway. Codename The Sun in the Tarot Club. He was a teenager that lives in the City of Silver which resides in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. He hopes he can lead the City of Silver out of the Forsaken Land of the Gods, restore sunlight, and bring normal lives back to his people. He is the youngest Elder of Six-member Council.
His dream came true with The Fool's help in 1352 of the Fifth Epoch; the City of Silver left the Forsaken Land of the Gods. They settle the new home in the Rorsted Archipelago, near Bayam, and found the Church of the Fool. Derrick became one of the Archbishops responsible for the church. By 1358, he is the Pope of the Church of the Fool.

Personality[]
Derrick Berg is a naïve and honest person. Because of his youthfulness, he is not particularly cunning, leading him to be taken advantage of by Alger during Tarot Club interactions. He is inexperienced with navigating complex political and social situations, often leaking valuable information for free that he could have sold for a good price.
Honest and eager, Derrick always strives to do the right thing. He wants to become the sun and restore sunlight back to his home.
Since the first Tarot Club meetings, he has been taught by other Tarot Club members, especially The Hanged Man. He has now become maturer, and able to think deeper when facing complicated situations. However, this didn't change him being an honest and sincere person. He always thinks of the good side of everyone and is very grateful for all the help he received from Tarot Club members, especially Mr. Hanged Man, and not to mention Mr. Fool.

He becomes a member of the Tarot Club.[1] He provides the club with historical records of the past epochs which are hard to find for peoples in the current era. He also provides the club with various Beyonder materials from monsters around the City of Silver which are difficult to procure elsewhere. Through the transactions in the club, he became a Beyonder of the Sun Pathway, advancing in Sequence.
