Description
Julius Rapha Holfort is a tall, striking young man with dark blue hair trimmed to medium length and piercing eyes of the same hue, his appearance punctuated by three small ahoges that jut unpredictably from his crown. Born crown prince of the Holfort Kingdom, he was molded by royal expectations into a figure of pride and aloofness, maintaining emotional distance through a blunt communication style. His resentment toward the gilded constraints of royalty became entwined with his fiancée, Angelica Rapha Redgrave, whom he saw as an emblem of the life he yearned to flee.

Financially reckless, Julius viewed wealth as an inexhaustible birthright, his sheltered existence fostering reckless spending and fiscal naivety. This detachment from reality birthed ludicrous schemes, from covert academy chicken farms to disguises funded by official budgets.

A transformative struggle emerged during his time in the Alzer Republic, where near-bankruptcy and the grind of survival stripped away his illusions. Humbled, he cultivated responsibility and empathy, finding unexpected fulfillment in manual labor and relinquishing his title to embrace a simpler existence—devouring skewers and pursuing Marie Fou Lafan free from courtly chains.

In the original otome narrative, Julius stood as a central romance option. Academy events like dungeon explorations and the End-of-Term Party duel traced his shifting bonds: cold dismissal of Angelica, whose loyalty he misread as ambition, and growing attachment to Marie, who seemed to grasp his unvarnished self. His defeat by Leon Fou Bartfort, Angelica’s champion, cost him his princely status, sparking introspection and a reckoning with past selfishness.

Alternate paths unveiled darker depths. Obsessive protection of Olivia—unaware she was possessed—drove him to brutality, compromising the kingdom’s security. Familial ties further shaped his arc: Queen Mylene’s reproach for spurning wise counsel, and his sister Erica, later revealed as the reincarnated daughter of Marie’s past life, weaving his legacy into the tangled web of Leon’s lineage. Through these trials, Julius evolved from a pampered heir into a man learning the weight of accountability and the quiet worth of ordinary joys.
