Bio: Born to a lesser known noble family of Alvion, Arthur grew up desiring to serve God and to be a knight. His time as a page aided him along the journey to knighthood, but he found himself called elsewhere. He found himself drawn more and more to the Order of the Templers, a religious order of knightly monks who vowed to serve God, their country, and their fellow man while also taking the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. At the age of sixteen then, he started as a novice, spending the last years continuing to learn from the older brethren and to discern fully if this is the right path for him before he becomes a full-fledged member of the order. So far though, his resolution to take his final vows has never wavered. And so he comes upon his last test, undergoing a quest that will test him against the outside world. It is for this quest that he ended up in Roh and meeting Lapis, and it is in this quest that he means to never falter.
