Description
Percival is a supporting character in the anime series Divine Gate. He is a member of the Knights of the Round, the order of warriors serving under Arthur, and he comes from the Common World, one of the realms in the story's setting. He is a teenage boy with purple hair cut to ear length and red eyes.
In terms of personality, Percival is quiet and reserved. He is described as not talkative and is known for specializing in secretive missions, which suits his low-key and discreet nature. Despite his reserved demeanor, he shares a close bond with his fellow knight Ywain, and the two are frequently seen spending time together, suggesting a comfortable friendship built on mutual understanding. Arthur, the leader of the Knights of the Round, affectionately calls him Perci, which reflects a familiar and respectful relationship with his commander.
Percival's motivations are tied to his duties as a knight. He carries out missions on behalf of the Knights of the Round and supports Arthur's objectives, including the expedition to locate the Divine Gate. His personal background and private ambitions are not explored in great depth within the anime, and his role is defined primarily by his loyalty and his competence in carrying out the tasks assigned to him.
Within the story, Percival serves as a supporting figure among the Knights of the Round. When Arthur assembles the knights along with select adapters from the Academy to search for the Divine Gate, Percival is among those who take part in the expedition. He remains a steady and dependable presence throughout the events of the series rather than undergoing a major personal transformation.
In combat, Percival wields a driver called Dindrane, a gun-blade type weapon that combines a firearm with a blade, allowing him to fight effectively at both range and close quarters. His name and his weapon both carry references to Arthurian legend: Percival is the name of one of King Arthur's knights, and Dindrane is a name associated with Percival's sister in the Old French Arthurian romance Perlesvaus, connecting his character to the chivalric tradition that the Knights of the Round are modeled on. Additional profile details note that his special skill is darts, he prefers salty foods over sweets, and his birthday falls on August 3rd.
