Description
Ludis Mergas stands as a Noble clan leader of Lukedonia, commanding the Mergas Clan and bearing the title Guardian of Lukedonia, charged with its security and protection. Despite his age exceeding five centuries, Ludis presents a remarkably youthful visage compared to his peers, marked by grey hair that completely obscures his right eye and the characteristic red eyes of his kind. He favors formal noble attire.

His demeanor radiates calm patience and kindness towards comrades, yet shifts to cold efficiency against enemies. Unwaveringly loyal to the Lord and Lukedonia, Ludis executes commands decisively, such as annihilating invading human fleets. He exhibits notable tolerance, enduring Karias' behavior where other leaders react angrily, and maintains respect for Gejutel, reminding the Lord of his past loyalty even under suspicion. While his clan extends kindness to humans, evidenced by their care for Tao, Takeo, and M-21 after a crash in his territory, Ludis prioritizes security, investigating potential links between such incidents and intruders.

As leader, Ludis commands the Central Order knights, receiving reports and issuing reinforcements and operational directives. He directly implements the Lord's orders concerning this force. His duties include investigating breaches, like missing knights, leading to confrontations such as his battle against Gradeus during the traitor nobles' invasion. Discovering Gradeus slaughtering Central Order knights ignited their conflict, showcasing Ludis' defensive mastery against Gradeus' offense. Enraged by Gradeus' insults toward the fallen and false claims about Rajak's death, Ludis unleashed his ultimate technique: a barrier of golden crosses consuming his life force to entomb an opponent eternally, a sacrifice halted only by Lagus' arrival.

Ludis wields formidable clan leader power. His Soul Weapon, Izarok, manifests as a sword radiating a green aura, capable of cleaving military ships, and a shield that generates powerful barriers, including one protecting Lukedonia's shrine during Raizel and Raskreia's duel. His aura manipulation crafts three-dimensional force fields blocking naval artillery and redirecting enemy attacks. He developed unique techniques like the sealing barrier of golden crosses, though it demands his life force.
