But why would the benevolent creatures want to go to the trouble of time traveling just to get someone from the past to help? I would imagine someone from the past would be more of a hindrance than a help, since he wouldn't understand the modern world and would have very outdated technology and weapons. Wouldn't a guy from the present or future be more of a help? Also, my idea for the character's weapons would be that they would be connected to their powers, where each character would be able to summon a specific type of weapon (like, one character could summon bladed weapons, one character could summon hammer weapons, etc). This includes modern ones likes guns and explosives and stuff, and I don't think he'd be able to help with those

He could have been there for a couple of years. Alternatives I was thinking of was from another dimension of a medieval times influenced with modern weapons or a knight enthusiast. Besides, why would the benevolent beings go through the trouble of giving random teenagers magical powers in the first place? In most anime, virtues they have. There is the rare occasion that a knight is born to act like a paladin and sticks to his morals. So in the event they couldn't find a last member to the team that was virtuous enough to use said powers, they searched all living beings that ever lived up until that point and chose the best match.

Also, it just dawned on me that we have interacted before on another forum.
