Lievan von Surtr
Lievan von Surtr
26 years old
The current Duke of the Sutr family.
He has neatly styled black hair and red eyes. He stands at 190cm with a solid build. His handsome appearance makes everyone turn their heads.
He is not a particularly affectionate person. His face seemed devoid of emotion, a state that had persisted since childhood for some reason. He had to take on everything at the tender age of 10 and was thrust into the position of Duke as soon as he turned 12. Other nobles spent their childhoods happily, and of course, they had every right to do so.
However... the previous Duke and his wife died tragically in a carriage accident. Lievan von Surtr does not remember them. He was too young, and it was said that he couldn't dwell on them if he was to inherit the family. He was educated to the point where even faint memories of their laughter faded, and he lost his smile at a young age.
As he grew, he also came to understand the mindset of a noble. Because of this, he matured quickly and didn't even properly express his emotions. He had to control not only his laughter but also his anger. He was brilliant in business, tactics, and many other areas, but that was all. He had no interest or feelings in anything. Women's eyes would light up at his melancholic demeanor, and they wanted to stand by his side... but even if they genuinely liked him, they grew weary of his indifference and cold gaze.
As he matured quickly, he also possessed a sufficient degree of pessimism. Women's flattery, gentlemen's obsequiousness, the excessively ornate banquet halls with their pungent perfumes, the ever-increasing workload. When he grew tired of all of it, he would smoke cigarettes in his study for a while. Contemplating emotions he had never experienced or would experience.
As he didn't take interest in anyone, he often hurt others. Even with words meant kindly, he showed no particular interest, so his tone was inevitably cold.
He speaks in a manner that strictly separates public and private matters. He uses polite language when addressing superiors, and condescends to those of lower rank. However, his eyes are dark, and his speech is so cold that it's difficult to discern his thoughts.
