Description
Gerard Augre is a supporting character from the anime Lord Marksman and Vanadis, known for serving as a key strategist and logistician. He is the son of Hughes Augre, the Viscount of Territoire, a territory in the kingdom of Brune. As a young man in his early to mid-twenties, Gerard is noted for his tall stature and handsome features, with short, messy hazel-colored hair that appears longer in the anime adaptation. His typical attire consists of noble red clothing and hazel pants, reflecting his status as a member of the Brune nobility.
Personality-wise, Gerard is characterized by his sharp intelligence and a logical approach to problem-solving. He relies on reason and calculation to address any situation, making him a rational and dependable individual in times of crisis. Despite his noble upbringing and well-mannered demeanor, he has a sarcastic and crude side that often emerges in his interactions with others. He does not hesitate to engage in arguments with those who disagree with his methods and frequently uses wisecracking sarcasm as a retort, even in high-pressure situations where the army faces extreme disadvantages. This stands in contrast to his father's more reserved nature, and Gerard dislikes being compared to him. Nevertheless, beneath his abrasive exterior, he is a reliable ally who holds deep respect for certain peers, including Tigrevurmud Vorn, his father Hughes, and Queen Regin.
Gerard's primary motivation stems from his family's longstanding connection to the Vorn family. Because of his father's acquaintance with Tigrevurmud Vorn, also known as Tigre, Gerard is deeply loyal and committed to assisting him. He joins Tigre's insurgency after the young earl subjugates the Belfort bandits, taking on the vital role of tactician and logistics officer for the Silver Meteor Army. In this capacity, he is responsible for managing the army's supplies, calculating provisions, and providing critical tactical advice to the commanders. His precision in counting and calculations is a standout attribute, and he works to avoid any possible danger, no matter how trivial, to ensure the army's success.
Gerard's role in the story is that of a key supporting strategist. He participates in major campaigns, including the battle against the invading Muozinel Army, where he helps Tigre and the Vanadis Eleonora Viltaria coordinate their forces. He also joins Tigre's quest to secure Queen Regin's proof of heritage during the conflict with Felix Aaron Thenardier. Following the end of Brune's civil war and Regin's enthronement as queen, Gerard is appointed as the Royal Secretary, a political role in which he handles internal and external affairs, with a particular focus on diplomatic relations between Brune and Zhcted.
Gerard shares several key relationships that define his place in the narrative. His respect for Tigre is significant; although he sometimes tests the young commander's leadership with pointed questions and sarcastic remarks about his good-natured personality, he remains unfailingly supportive. He shares an uneasy friendship with Rurick, a hot-headed general from Zhcted serving under Elen. Gerard finds Ruricks brutish behavior unrefined, often calling him the bald man of Zhcted, and the two engage in frequent squabbles despite their mutual loyalty to Tigre and Elen. He is also one of the few people who can tolerate Queen Regin during her initial hostility toward others, and after her coronation, he becomes a staunch supporter and her Royal Secretary. His interactions with Eleonora Viltaria, the Vanadis of Leitmeritz, include moments where his flattery is met with her suspicion, advising him to keep his compliments in check.
Throughout the story, Gerard demonstrates notable development from a nobleman's son assisting a family ally to a trusted tactician and, ultimately, a key political figure in the new kingdom. His abilities extend beyond the battlefield. He is an expert tactician, relying on his intellect and witty characteristics to formulate strategies for the Silver Meteor Army. He is also a political expert, a talent that becomes essential in his role as Royal Secretary to Queen Regin, where he manages diplomatic affairs. His most prominent skill, however, is his ability to perform precise calculations, allowing him to count nearly everything without missing a single figure, a talent that proves invaluable for logistics and planning.
