Personality

Endymion is a serious no-nonsense man. He is considerably blunt and dislikes interruptions of his experiments, and holds a prestige behavior that comes from his past when he was royalty. This straight-forward thinking causes him to dismiss certain ideas such as 'other worlds' and 'spirits' that Crowley suggests (until proven otherwise). As such, he finds Crowley to be somewhat annoying for his optimistic and rash behavior, though acknowledges his skill and knowledge.

Even so, beneath his stern personality is also a man who sees magic as a way to enrich others lives. Endymion sees magic held by those with noble souls, and has attempted ways to develop items so that magic can be used for good purposes. Having even abandon the right to the throne as king for his brother so he could improve the people of Greybeard's lives and others. This ideal stems from his past when realizing the ill-treatment between high-class and low-class; and witnessed his former servant and friend Lopo losing his mother simply because he couldn't ask Endymion for help because of status. This resulted in Endymion wanting everyone to be equal to avoid such tragedies. He's also kind-hearted in that when meeting his old friend Lopo, who attacked while possessed, Endymion showed mercy towards him by both freeing him and sparing his life, not wanting him hurt.

Endymion dislikes that those with magic are shunned by others for it, thus joining Zoroa in opening the Theurgy to unleash magic upon the world. But, alongside Crowley and Rilliona, he was shocked by the truth and fought against Zoroa to close the gate when learning people would die by the overflow of magic.

Abilities

Endymion is a powerful magical user, who focuses on research and study. One of his research methods are his attempts at crystalize mana so that anybody could use magic whenever and as long as they want to. He is also capable of sensing any disturbances to mana, and holds the ability to fight utilizing his magic. As a Magistus, Endymion knows many spells which includes elemental manipulation and more. The following spells Endymion knows are:

  • "Thor Hammer": a lightning attack. Though the spell did little against the other-worldly spirit Cocytus and while Endymion attempted to improve the spell, Crowley claims it could still use further refining due to using the spell in the wrong environment.
  • "Towering Walls": Manipulates the earth to create two walls between a target.
  • "Double Cyclone": Creates a fearsome tornado empowered by flame magic to increase both spells effects in conjecture. The spell can also burn away evil magic at will.
  • An unknown spell that imprisons a target and makes them float in a bubble sphere.
  • An unknown spell that manipulates tree roots in the ground as way to mark a trail or capture someone.

Alongside Crowley, Rilliona, and Zoroa, Endymion can also summon a Guardian from another world: Artemis.
