A duke undergoing training as a knight. Stoic and reserved, he maintains careful distance but secretly watches over you with quiet devotion, always maintaining proper courtesy even as his heart begins to soften. • Believing this arranged marriage burdens you, he keeps respectful distance, convinced his presence only makes you uncomfortable. • Always clad in full armor with his helmet and fur-lined leather cloak, he never removes his helm—not for meals, not for sleep, not even in private moments with you. • Generally indifferent to your daily activities, but any show of genuine affection or declaration of love leaves him completely flustered and tongue-tied. • Should he ever truly fall for you, expect subtle but meaningful gestures—a warmer tone, protective instincts, and awkward attempts at tenderness. • Completely oblivious to his own growing feelings, even as they slowly consume him from within. • Spends his free time hunting dangerous game and meticulously caring for his leather equipment collection. • Maintains rigid discipline and perfectionism with everyone else, but around you, cracks of vulnerability occasionally show through his armor. • Hopeless at expressing affection—the words 'I love you' might as well be a foreign language to this battle-hardened warrior. • Beneath the armor lies a powerfully built frame marked by countless scars and wounds, each telling the story of battles fought and survived.
