</tabber>
==Appearance==
Cal is described to be a blonde half-elf that has, according to Embla, golden eyes. As a half-elf, Cal does not possess the tall stature that full elves do. He has pointed ears however, signifying his elven blood.
Like Embla, Cal wears a hunter's cloak. Underneath is a light grey shirt with a black undershirt underneath. He wears dark colored pants and boots. On his back is a quiver filled with dozens of arrows. On his left leg is a pouch filled with potions.
==Personality==
Cal is described by Embla as brash and cocky. He is extremely blunt and will not hesitate to say the first thing at the tip of his tongue. His first encounters with Embla involved shooting at her with an arrow and getting into petty conflicts with her. He is sarcastic and often times quite rude as noted by his twin.
However, despite this, Cal is also rather nice once one gets to know him. He cares a lot for the members of his party. An example of this is when he expressed worry for Embla after she injured herself using Refraction or when she tried to get up too quickly while she was injured. He is also portrayed to be a good brother to Pandora, looking for her after she stormed off during an argument when they were children. Cal appears to be able to relate a lot in terms of being an older sibling to Embla's older sister, Valentina, and appears to understand many of the reasons as to why she left.
Unlike his twin sister, Cal is more of the straight man. He isn't as perverted as Pandora, but can make rather snide remarks when the situation calls for it. He's definitely more grounded than his twin sister, who often entertains herself with delusions and fantasies.
According to both Embla and Pandora, Cal tends to hide his genuine worries and kindness behind thinly veiled insults and indifference. This is seen when Embla woke up and walked to the mayoral manor, causing Cal to worry. However, Cal hid his worry behind an air of indifference. He also expressed this when Yuki hid herself in her room after seeing her mother for the first time in three years. 
Cal is known to remain calm and collected under pressure, allowing him to make split second decisions during combat. He is also level-headed, not allowing to let his emotions get the better of him when Embla is taken as a battlefield hostage. Despite his calm demeanor, he still manages to retain his blunt and nonchalant way of speech which serves to tick the enemy off more as it does to keep him calm.
==History==
Caelum Izayoi was born in an unnamed village alongside his twin sister, Pandora. When they were young, Cal and Pandora got into an argument, resulting in her storming off. While the others searched for her, Cal was the only one who knew where she went. After a week of begging his father, Cal snuck out and went to go find her. Eventually, Cal found her huddled inside their tree house and returned with her hours later.

Intelligence: Average. Cal appears to be good at planning and can read more than one language like his sister. He is also rather knowledgeable in magic and tracking. He can also handle money rather well. Cal is also a highly adept combatant, forcing Embla to resort to dirty tactics during their first matchup when she arrived in Yggdrasil.

|-|Skills=
|-|Bursts=
Sun Piercer: Alternatively known as Light Piercer. Sun Piercer is a Burst Level Skill used exclusively by Cal. It is an upgraded version of the Martial Skill, Straight Shot. It utilizes both Mana and Prana, using an arrow enhanced by prana and infused by light affinity mana. The attack appears unimpressive but travels at an extremely high velocity and is capable of piercing through an Idunn Mutated Sabyr with great ease. Embla also states that a single shot is capable of causing severe organ damage.
Valkyrie Spear: Valkyrie Spear is a Light Element Burst Skill. It creates several spears made of golden light that relentlessly seeks their opponents in combat.
Radiant Spiral: A Dual-Cast Burst comprised of Wind and Light Elements. The user creates a vaccuum in their hand and gathers light into it. The vaccum's effects are strong enough to warp the light element mana into a swirling orb. Coupled with the high speed of the winds and the natural heat of the light, the burst produces a grinding and burning effect that can tear and sear away the flesh of their opponents.
|-|Arts=
====Arts====
Sol: While Cal hasn't revealed its name, Sol is the name of Cal's Arts. The exact mechanics behind this power is unknown but it is shown to produce powerful golden flames. The flames are strong enough to completely negate the regeneration of a Draugr as shown when Cal used it to kill the monster that William became. Cal attempted to use his Arts before during the Battle of the Unknown Fortress but was barred by Shirayuki. Due to the sheer destructive capability of the Arts, Yuki has restricted its use to emergency situations.
*Prominence Arrow: A highly destructive Arts. Cal creates a sphere of golden flames that he throws at his opponent. Once the opponent blocks or is swallowed by the sphere, Cal creates an arrow made of golden flames and fires it at the sphere. The sphere detonates, creating a massive blast capable of shaking the entire city of Yggdrasil.

==Trivia==
*Cal's name, Caelum, is derived from the Roman God of the Sky, Caelum, who was the father of Saturn and the grandfather of Jupiter.
*His last name was inspired by Sakuya Izayoi from Touhou Project.
**His last name also indicates that one of his parents is from Alfheim. However, Cal was born in Midgard.
**Izayoi means Moon of the Sixteenth Night. The last name's meaning is ironic considering what I have planned and the fact that Cal primarily uses Light Element Magic Skills.
*Like the other characters, Cal has Norse Motifs, being based on Sol, the Norse Goddess of the Sun, and the enemy of Skoll (meaning Treachery).
**He also has some motifs related to the God Baldur, mainly that of light.
**His Arts, Sol, is named after the Norse Goddess of the Sun, Sol. The golden flames of his Arts is reference to Gold being the most common color associated with the Sun in most world religions.
*Cal's birthday according to the Gregorian Calendar used in real life is June 29.
*Cal's overall character is inspired by Noah Wynknight from The Reason Raeliana Ended Up At the Duke's Mansion.
