Name: Arthur
Gender: Male
Age: Physically: Twenty Five
Spiritually: Thousands of years
Birthday: September 27th
Sexuality: Bisexual
Type: Heroic Spirit
Special Characteristics: ⚜ Somewhat ethereal due to how he appears fading away with particles of holy magic breaking away from him. However, this is just due to how he is constantly sustaining himself on the magic of Arcadia.
Personality: Normally with his students, he is a man of few words. However, due to the time that he spends being around Lilium has caused him to become more of an extroverted individual. He's rather cynical when speaking to her, making notes of her misdeeds and shortcomings. He makes fun of the holy mage quite a bit because he finds it fun where he can tease her as if he is her older brother, rather than a teacher regarding her magic. However, he feels a lot of pride the way he looks at how much she is growing as a person thanks to the circumstances that she is gaining due to becoming more powerful. Arthur rarely indulges her ego though but will tell her how proud he is of how far along she has come since the day in Arcadia where they met.
He enjoys doing the work of servant because he's never done it before due to being the one always being served in his life time. As opposed to complaining about the change, he finds fulfillment when he is cleaning and cooking as it's an easy way to see a result of his hard work without it being a long term fulfillment. He is prideful of his cooking and as such, when he cooks, he prepares a lot due to liking eating just as much. He has quite a broad palette as there isn't many foods where he openly dislikes. This extends to him in most settings. He quite enjoys trying new things and putting himself at risk to discover what he does and doesn't like.
Arthur also makes note of little things, resulting in him being a rather observant human being. This really forced his hand when he is interacting with his current student, as she isn't the most honest when she is talking about how she is feeling. He notices posture changes, breathing changes, facial expressions and more. It's all key in helping him understand those he interacts with because a lot of people are dishonest with how they are truly feeling. Arthur also enjoys teasing people to illicit reactions out of them because when prodded enough, people eventually just say their true thoughts, making it a lot easier on him.
In battle, the holy knight tries his best to fight fairly although he is certain that isn't always the case due to how some people are. He always strives to win and is extremely competitive when it comes to combat, after all, his combat and sword skills formed the roots of his legend. He doesn't lose himself in combat as he will always act accordingly to a plan to make sure that he is victorious in the end. After all, if he wants to win rather effortlessly, he can simply just follow someone's orders to make it easier on them in the end. As a leader, he shines brilliantly as he is able to create valid scenarios as to why a plan may fail or why they should go a different route. He has a tactical wit that is unique and uses it to present alternate options or reasons why they shouldn't go through with a plan. However, he takes a backseat from leading as he wants his current student to become more confident with herself again and begin to lead operations herself. He was already a king, he doesn't need to be renowned as a strategist when the holy mage is extremely good at making her own plans.
Likes: ⚜ Arcadia ► He is essentially still alive thanks to the magic from this realm and offers thanks to it whenever he can.
⚜ Athena ► Heavily indebted towards the Goddess of Arcadia and in all honesty, finds her presence amusing when she lets down her serious persona.
⚜ Writing ► The former king never was able to do much writing other than signing his name down on papers so when he gets the opportunity, he enjoys writing little things like poems and short stories.
Dislikes: ⚜ Two Faced People ► Dealing with people who don't show their true intentions with how they act really annoys the king because he isn't sure how he is supposed to deal with these types of people.
⚜ Attention Seekers ► He lived most of his life in the spotlight and finds it rather odd that people get fulfillment off of other people's attention and most people that do aren't pleasant to be around.
⚜ His Legend ► He feels as though he doesn't live up to the expectations people set up to him. The legends paint him almost god like however, they also forget he was also just a human like everyone else.
Motivations: ⚜ Lilium's Mission ► He was only originally meant to be a mentor and leave the holy mage to fulfill her mission of purifying the world's evils by herself, however once the two became closer, he decided to make it his mission to help her complete her task assigned by Athena.
⚜ Purification ► Arcadia gets a lot of tainted souls due to the nature of the souls that are housed there, being soldiers that died in vain primarily. He always works hard at purifying any souls that he comes across while he is on standby within Arcadia.
⚜ Purpose Fulfilled ► His purpose within the realm is to become that of a teacher to those who find themselves using the magic of Arcadia and he is only done when his most successful student is able to complete their mission and enter Arcadia as a Heroic Spirit.
Fears: ⚜ Death of Lilium ► It makes sense that his student's death is one of his greatest fears. She is the strongest wielder of Arcadia by far but if she dies, that means she hasn't completely fulfilled her mission and will simply remain a fallen soul within Arcadia.
⚜ Being Forgotten ► Despite him not liking his legend due to it building him up as something he's not, he's honoured that the world is still remembering who he is as a person and fears the day that his name will be uttered for the last time.
⚜ Lilium Remaining Alone ► He knows that she is thankful for his company but she really needs people around her, who are alive, that she can cherish and live for the sake of herself and for the sake of others that care about her. He doesn't want her to complete her mission with no one to congratulate her at the end of it all.
