Description
Rufus Brode, whose true identity is Sora Smith, serves as a butler to the Berg household under his alias before revealing his origins as an orphan from Ethenell's slums. A foreign mentor named him "Sora" for his sky-like light blue hair and eyes, but after stealing medicine for the ailing man, Sora was captured and enslaved. Purchased by Marquis David Mason, he endured forced dark magic experiments that granted him unnatural abilities during unconsciousness.
Sora bears light blue hair—typically tied in a ponytail—and matching eyes, accented by a beauty mark on his right cheek. As Rufus Brode, he presents a refined butler persona, though his natural demeanor is casual. Later, at the Ministry of Magic, he dons standard work attire. Charismatic and adaptable, he maintains a positive, forward-looking attitude despite past trauma, prioritizing money and female companionship while leveraging resourcefulness, lies, or charm to survive conflicts.
Magically weak, Sora possesses only level-one innate fire magic and limited artificial dark magic due to low aptitude. However, his physical strength ranks highest among his peers, honed by a harsh upbringing. Under Mason’s orders, he infiltrated the Bergs to manipulate Selena Berg using dark magic and her insecurities, aiming to sabotage Princes Ian and Geordo Stuart’s succession claims. He orchestrated Katarina Claes’s kidnapping but abandoned his mission after bonding with her during captivity, aiding her escape and surrendering.
Post-arrest, Larna Smith (Suzanna Randall) recruited him into the Ministry’s Magic Tools Department, bestowing the surname "Smith" to replace his nameless status. He now learns administrative tasks from Raphael Walt and shares relaxed rapport with Dewey Percy. Routinely escorting Katarina home and collaborating on assignments, he faces Prince Geordo’s animosity over their mutual romantic interest. Sora harbors deep, unrequited feelings for Katarina, often flirting subtly to her obliviousness, and views Maria Campbell as his chief rival for her affections. A brooch from Katarina—shifting between their eye colors—symbolizes their bond and his hope to someday travel with her.
