Introduction
|
Mikhail Renfred (ミハイル・レンフレッド, Mihairu Renfureddo) is a Sorcerer and mentor to Alice Swayne.
Appearance[]
Renfred is a tall man who keeps his black hair in a ponytail. He is missing his left arm and has a scar across his left eye. His face seems to be in a constant scowl -- a face only a mother could love. His most common outfit is a two-button white suit.
Personality[]
Renfred is serious and has some sort of grudge against Elias, but parallels him in more ways than one: he is standoffish yet deeply concerned for the one under his protection. He has a very low opinion in general on the supernatural creatures such as Elias as well, to the point of it being renowned. Elias also points out that while he is a talented sorcerer, he likely doesn't become one by choice and hates it.
He is also a solemn drunk when he has alcohol according to his friends.
History[]
Renfred met Alice in an alleyway, and he decided that she had enough magical affinity to become his apprentice. His scar is the work of saving Alice from a cursed book she had open. She, instead, decided to become his guardian.
His arm was lost after upsetting Cartaphilus. It was used as part of his Chimera.
