General Personality:
Born within the nation-kingdom of Fiore, Edward Von Aurence was raised alone by his mother in Lavanitir Port City until he was five years old. At the age of five, he lost his mother to an incurable illness and was forced to live on the streets of Lavanitir Port City for half a year. While the amount of time he spent living on the streets within the city was not long, Edward Von Aurence was shown parts of society that would follow him for many years to come. He watched people with an excess amount of wealth, food, and power only care for themselves. He watched people who barely had anything attempt to help others. It was at that time, Edward decided if he could ever help other people he would. It was later on that Edward was found by a member of the Church of Lorelei and brought to a small abbey where he learned about the teachings of Lorelei and the goals of the Church. They resonated within him and crafted him into the young man Edward is today.
Devoted To Teachings Of Lorelei And Loyal To The Church
Edward Von Aurence is a devoted follower of the teachings of Lorelei and a dedicated member of the Church of Lorelei. This devotion is linked to the fact Edward felt the teachings of Lorelei resonate within himself along with the goals of the Church. It is also linked to the fact that the Church of Lorelei took him in when he had lost his mother and there was no one else in the world that cared about him. His devotion and loyalty to both the God, Lorelei, and the Church of Loyalty are without equal and he will follow their orders without fail and without question.
Moral and Truthful
Edward Von Aurence possesses a very strong moral compass differentiating between right and wrong. Good and evil. Light and dark. It is because of his strong moral compass, Edward tends to think things through before he acts on them making sure they don't go against his own values along with the values taught to him by the Church of Lorelei. This trait also causes him to stay on the light side of the spectrum such as taking responsibility for an error and not trying to cover it up or returning something that another person has lost.
Independent And Skillful
Despite the fact Edward Von Aurence is a member and a priest of the Church of Lorelei, he has developed an independent and somewhat assertive attitude regarding his work and his own life. He depends on the teachings of Lorelei for spiritual and moral support, but he works to change the world for the better through his own effort and ability. Edward has taught himself a number of skills such as cooking, cleaning, first-aid, herbology, gardening, hunting, and etc.
Respect And Value For Life
Edward Von Aurence places a great deal of value and respect toward his own life and the lives of others. This value in life was taught to him by the teachings of Lorelei. However, it also stems from his work with the Church of Lorelei where Edward has seen numerous of villages ransacked and destroyed by humans with evil in their hearts, smooth-talking demons, malevolent spirits, and mindless hordes of the undead. This value of life leads Edward to attempt every method to resort issues peacefully and try not to end a life, but he also values his own life and if it is endangered then he has no problem ending another's life. His value of life also extends to the food that he eats which leads him to always give thanks for the fauna's and flora's sacrifice to become his dinner.
Combat Personality:
As an individual, Edward Von Aurence dislikes violence and fighting, however, he does understand that it is necessary when protecting oneself or protecting others from harm. When it comes to engaging in combat, Edward generally attempts to remove his enemies' desire to fight through pain which causes him to use lethal or excessive force for the most part. However, he can be completely brutal when it comes to individuals that he knows there is no reasoning with or who have committed crimes that cannot be forgiven by any means. Edward's fighting style mixes a range of close combat, mid-range combat, and long-range combat influences meaning, for the most part, he is capable of fighting in any situation without too much of a problem. He remains composed and merciful if a person hasn't committed any true taboos in his eyes for the most part but since he uses the magic of angels his own personality can become cold, cruel, and heartless.
As A Follower And A Leader
When working underneath an another individual, Edward Von Aurence is, for the most part, the ideal follower since he understands that a leader has a lot to deal with in regards to assuring the safety of the group. But if something goes against his own morals or the teachings of Lorelei, he will openly object and refuse to take part in the action and attempt to stop it. While working as the leader of a group, Edward Von Aurence attempts to lead the group to the best of the ability and ensure that no one is left behind. However, his morals and the teachings of Lorelei can lead him to take unnecessary risks such as saving the life of an injured person.
Likes:
Food: Ever since Edward Von Aurence was a young child growing up in an abbey, which belonged to the Church of Lorelei, he has always possessed an odd love for tasting different kinds of culinary dishes along with a huge appetite. His appetite is so enormous that it has earned him the nickname 'The Glutton of Lorelei' among his fellow members of the church. Despite his enormous appetite, Edward seems to never truly gain weight no matter how much he eats. Some members of the church link this large appetite to the unique magic he uses and Edward's unknown bloodline. While he does enjoy tasting different types of food, he always makes sure to give his thanks to the animals and plants used to make his meal along with a prayer to Lorelei.
Helping Others: While assisting the less fortunate is a fundamental teaching of the Church of Lorelei, Edward Von Aurence has developed his own fondness for the act. Edward has never been able to truly explain why he enjoys helping the less fortunate besides the fact that it makes him feel warm inside and seeing the smiles on another person's face fills him with joy. He also uses the fact assisting those less fortunate is part of the teachings of Lorelei. Because of this inability to explain his own actions completely, some people say that it is only egotism that drives him to help or because of his church's teachings. However, Edward doesn't allow those words to bother him or stop him from helping others.
Nature: Edward Von Aurence spent his childhood and teenage years at a small abbey, which belonged to the Church of Lorelei. The abbey was situated in the center of a lush forest far away from the strife and bloodshed of the outside world. When he was not in the middle of teachings from the Abbot of the Abbey or his Archangel mentor, Edward Von Aurence would spend time out in the beautiful forest enjoying the scenery and the sound of nature. This love of nature and its beauty has extended to his late teenage years. Even now, Edward will attempt to find an isolated area free from the strife of the world and partake in nature's beauty.
Dislikes:
Pointless Bloodshed: Steeming from Edward Von Aurence's devotion to the teachings of Lorelei as well as his personal experience as a priest of The Chruch of Lorelei, Edward has developed a deep-seated disdain toward pointless bloodshed and brutality. During his work for the church, he has come across numerous villages which had been burnt to the ground and villagers on the brink of death because of bandits who simply desired to spill the blood of innocent people. It is because of this that this particular dislike extends to people who have no moral compass or regard for the precious life bestowed to the individuals of Earthland by Lorelei.
Selfishness: Having lost his own mother at the age of five, Edward Von Aurence has dealt with living at the bottom of society without anyone to take care of him or even assist him. During this time, he has seen people who had plenty and didn't wish to share even a little bit with someone who was suffering. He also saw people who barely had anything and give what the little they had to help others. It is because of this and teaching of the Church of Lorelei that Edward dislikes people who are selfish and refuse to help others when they are able to assist them.
Enemies Of The Church And Lorelei: As a priest of the Church of Lorelei and a devout follower of Lorelei, Edward Von Aurence possesses a disdain for the enemies of the Church. His particular dislike is not only founded on the Church's beliefs but his own experience in dealing with these enemies which consist of humans with evil in their hearts, smooth-talking demons, malevolent spirits, and mindless hordes of the undead. There are other enemies branded by the Church such as heretics who have abused the Church's position for personal profit or used it to commit horrible acts. These individuals have earned Edward's personal disdain and hatred for the horrible atrocious he has witnessed and the suffering they have forced on the innocent citizens of Earthland.
Motivations:
To Become A Priest Worthy Of Lorelei: Steeming from his devotion to the teachings of Lorelei, Edward Von Aurence wishes to become a full-fledged priest worthy of Lorelei and her infinite blessing.

To Travel And See The World: While Edward Von Aurence puts his devotion and duty to the Church of Lorelei and God Lorelei first and foremost in his daily life.

He also wishes to taste the amazing food unique to each country and engage in the culture of each country.
To Serve The Will Of Lorelei: Edward Von Aurence ended up losing his parental mother to an incurable illness at the young age of five. It was after losing his mother and living on the streets for six months that he was found by a member of the Church of Lorelei who took him to the Abbey where he spent the next twelve years of his life. Edward believes he owes his current life to the church and the God, Lorelei. A life in which he is able to live without scurrying in the streets and having to resort to crime to survive. It is in order to repay the debt he owes to Lorelei and the church along with their teaching that he wishes to serve the will of Lorelei. It is to this end that he trains under his mentor, an archangel, to carry out his God's will rather it is conveying messages of Lorelei's love to uninformed masses, helping the less fortunate, or ridding the world of evil humans, demons, spirits, and the undead.
Fears:

Failing His Duty: Edward Von Aurence was taken in by the Church of Lorelei when he was a child and after his mother had died from an incurable illness. The Church of Lorelei clothed him, feed him, and educated him about the world around him. Lorelei gave his heart hope when he had lost it all and gave him meaning. The Church showed him that there were people who cared about others and wished to save him. Edward fears that failing his duty as a priest will not only displease the Church and Lorelei, but it will also mean that failed those who needed his assistance.
