Adam Kaos (MLIV)

"Whenever the curtain of darkness falls, there is always a ray of hope, shining bright in the face of the shadows. Even when the darkness seems impossible to ward away, one thing remains clear, for as long as we fight for the right side, for the right people. Justice and Light always prevail. And nothing can ever change that."- Adam Kaos"Hope is like a candle that can never be extinguished. Try as hard as you might, but there is no way you can make us feel despair, for our future is bright and golden."- Adam Kaos
 For Adam's appearances in "Miracula Luxia III" or "Miracula Luxia II- The Bond", please see Adam Kaos (MLIII) and Adam Kaos (MLII).
Adam Kaos (カオス アダム Kaosu Adamu) (Latin: Adamus Kaos) is the Protagonist of "Miracula Luxia IV", as well as one of its most prominent Main Characters. 
A young hero who has grown up way too early, he stumbled upon an unfortunate series of events that eventually led toward the defeat of Mordred Darkthrop and his forces of evil by his hand. Many of the wicked sorcerer's servants fell to his might and many more have yet to face it in its strongest form. 
And yet, he never managed to completely defeat Darkthrop, leaving his soul to linger in the shadows and await the right time for its return to the real world. 
In a world full of Chaos and Despair, this young samaritan has become a figure of absolute Order. His accomplishments have left many astonished by his incredible skill and unquestioned kindness, despite being seen as a young figure in his league of fellow heroes. Hope and faith shine wherever he goes, lighting up the road to a brighter future. And it is no doubt that it shall be made a reality, as long as he is here to help. 
As a true warrior of the omnipresent Light and the messenger of Destiny, his task is to finish what he started many years ago- defeat Darkthrop once and for all and rid the world of his evil influence before it is too late. 
He is the son of legendary hero Jared Kaos and his wife Meggy Kaos, brother of Akira Kaos and Alcander Kaos, as well as the nephew of John and Uma Braveheart- the King and Queen of the Kingdom of Thais and the husband of late Aalia Kaos. 
== Overview ==
The newest Protagonist of the "Miracula Luxia" series is finally back. And he is more determined than he has ever been before.
Haunted by the demise of his fellow companions in the past, the young hero made the hard decision to exile himself, living only with his sister and his mentor for nearly two years. And yet, he never stayed inert. He practiced and watched for enemies, eagerly accepting missions that would allow him to redeem himself... even though they often endangered his life in the process.
In the end, he became much stronger than before. He eagerly anticipated the return of the one who brought everything he loved to ruin and plans to trap him in the underworld, this time forever.
The prophets of the new world speak of a young hero who is unaware of his own potential. He works hard to achieve success, yet never feels happy about the results. Thus, it is clear that the eyes of destiny are turned toward this unsuspecting individual.
With few friends and allies left to answer his call, Adam leaves the safety of his new home to embark on another long adventure. This time, he will make the impossible happen and become the messenger of a new world, filled with light and hope.
It is time to be heroes!
== Personality ==
Adam is a very kind, altruistic, honest and helpful gem of a boy, having been this way ever since he was a child. Becoming a hero managed to amplify those traits and make them even more prominent than they already were.
Many would claim that this is just the attitude of heroes in general and that Adam is nothing special. And yet, they are wrong, because Adam (unlike most heroes) solely cares about the safety of every person around the world and often disregards the warnings of his companions, just to be a part of the creation of a new world that is free of evil and despair.
Adam is shown to truly care about those who are close to him, be they from his family, friend circle, or simple strangers on the street. His desire to be their savior has given him the motivation needed to fight the forces of darkness, protecting them from those who dare to inflict harm upon them and give them the chance to live better lives.
Like many Lawful Good characters in stories outside "Miracula Luxia", Adam promises to do the right thing, yet sometimes finds himself unable to act, due to the guilt of possibly doing the wrong thing. This is often a nuisance, but it has never been an obstacle in his way. In addition, unlike many characters who have been corrupted by the darkness at least once in their time here, Adam's heart has never been corrupted by the darkness. He has managed to exercise self-control that helps him supress his emotions and prevent himself from giving in to his darkest temptations, thus making him one of the few characters who are truly emotionally strong.
== Appearance ==
Adam's outfits vary between "Miracula Luxia IV" 's respective Chapters, although only the original two- the most prominent of them- are revealed.
In this Story, he is shown as a grown-up boy whose overall appearance has also changed since he was last seen in "Miracula Luxia III". His hair has grown much longer than before, now including a large ponytail, making the impression of a Japanese style, backed up by the weapon that is shown. The blue color of his eyes has changed to a lighter tone- a sign of his altruism and loyalty toward the Light and Order.
Chapter I introduces Adam's first outfit. It consists of the casual clothing that he often wears when adventuring- long pearl white jacket, complete with a silver collar and buttons, made of ancient gold. Underneath the jacket lies a orange-colored shirt, streaked with light red in-between. On his neck, he wears a small silver cross- proof of his unending hope and faith.
Chapter II shows that Adam has changed his style since the end of the first one, although his overall appearance remains the same. Although his hair has remained the same way, the ponytail styled on the back of it has grown even further. The silver color of his collar has faded away, being replaced by a white color that seemingly blends in with the rest of his jacket. A small, silver scarf is wrapped around his neck, hiding the cross that has become a sign of the future for him in the years since he acted as a hero (although it was never removed and still stands underneath). He has replaced his previous orange shirt, in favor of wearing a light blue blouse with a blue section underneath and a light blue collar that juts out in-between his jacket and scarf. In addition, he also dons two large white feathers- a sign of the young hero's free spirit, untainted by evil and the unbreakable bonds that she shares with his family and friends, never to be shattered by the guilt in his heart.
Chapter V reveals that Adam has managed to retain most of the things that define his previous look. However, despite the fact that the color of his second line of clothing remains the same, he is now wearing a simple-looking light blue shirt with black buttons. In addition to that, he has also replaced the cross around his neck with a Star Symbol- a universal sign of true hope and unquestioned faith in the future, signifying that he has changed a lot, both physically and mentally, since he acted as a hero for the very first time.
== Family Members ==
 Below is a list of all Kaos family members, who have served as notable inspirations in Adam's life and/or made notable appearances alongside him throughout the course of the Story. It is worth noting that not all family members mentioned in the template above are mentioned in here as well, as they either did not appear in the Story or simply played a role too insignificant to be noted here.
* Father- Jared Kaos
Adam's father is a tender person with a outstanding sense of honor, something which has been passed down to his son as he started to help people himself and has served him well for many years. Exceptionally powerful, immensely talented and noticably loyal, Jared has served as a role model for his son ever since he learned about his father's acts of heroism for the first time, receiving admiration from him even in the present. The apex of his career as a world-renowned hero was when he was 18- the time when he faced an ancient demonic creature known as Grah-Hoth and defeated it, despite nearly losing his own life in the process- something which made Adam wish to be like him ever since their family lived a more peaceful life.
Although Adam does not have the chance to see his father very often and the last time they properly talked to each other was back in the previous Story, Adam still loves him deeply (Jared also does, but twice as much) and aspires to be like him and have his name known throughout the known world (and maybe even beyond that). All this time, he has done good deeds, but not just for everyone who lives on planet Earth. He has done it for his father, even though he never had the chance to help him out. Somewhere in the distance, Jared is still watching his son fulfill his destiny. And the young hero wants his father to know that he has not lost his hope and faith. Knowing that his father would be very proud of him makes Adam content enough to continue fighting in the name of the Order and Light.
* Mother- Meggy Kaos
Adam's good-natured and indulgent mother has always been a ray of hope in the young hero's life. Her benign and loving attitude brought joy in his heart when he thought everything was lost and her thoughtful advice has helped him conquer the fears that he once deemed undefeatable.
For many years, Meggy has been standing by her son's side, selflessly putting her own fears aside in order to give him a chance to forge a better future for himself. Alongside her husband, this woman with a clear heart has been watching her son make a name for himself in this world filled with chaos, admiring his courage and feeling overjoyed whenever he returned home to see them. She never stopped loving him, even when he had to leave them for good.
Nowadays, Meggy is suffering from the mistake that Adam made years ago. Even so, she still believes in her only son, trying to use whatever energy she has left to tell him that she will always love him and that he should focus on saving the world instead of her, showing how she is willing to waste her own life away, just to see her child become the savior of the people she once protected herself and to guide him toward the right path, despite the sorrow that still remains in his broken heart.
* Sister- Akira Kaos (Formerly Half-Sister)
Although Akira is not Adam's de-facto sister and that she has always had pessimistic tendencies that led her into the world of darkness, the young woman still loves him deeply and would do anything to save him, even if it means that she must betray her people's trust.
Not too long ago, Akira used to be a cold-blooded villain. She killed her enemies without remorse and sent those under her command to kill many more. And yet, her only desire was to build a world where she and her brother would live peacefully, away from any kinds of danger and turmoil. Back then, she still felt guilty of causing him so much pain with her actions and her desire to make an actual difference eventually turned her into a hero to her former allies once again, reuniting with her brother and saving his life once again, promising that she will always stand by his side... even in death.
Adam himself has felt ashamed of his sister's actions as a Queen of Darkness. He despised her for causing the deaths of many innocent people and even refused to see her again when their father suggested that she could reunite with them soon enough. And yet he never felt any actual hatred toward her. He never blamed her for anything that happened to them, knowing that she was forced to survive on her own. He still loved her and cared about her a lot, never daring to attack her... even as she tried to kill their father. Her act of redemption at the end of the last Story made him believe in her again and thanks to her, he finally remember what was still missing in his life- hope.
To this day, Akira is still standing loyally by her little brother's side, serving as his guardian angel and most trusted ally. In the lands of chaos, she stands by his side, eagerly slaying all of those who dare to lay a hand on the person whom she cares about more than anyone else and protecting the innocents alongside him, tirelessly working to keep the law intact. The light inside her soul has finally returned in its rightful place and Adam is glad to see that people can indeed change.

== Trivia ==
* In addition to being the Protagonist of "Miracula Luxia IV", Adam was also the Protagonist of its prequel- "Miracula Luxia III"
* Interestingly, Adam's first kill in the Story is done out of mercy, rather than being intentional like almost every kill that he has done during his time as a Protagonist.
**In addition, it is interesting to note that both Adam's first and last kills are done out of mercy. He is the only Protagonist (and character overall) who finishes a Story in such a way.
*Adam is one of the two members of the Kaos family who kills a General of Darkthrop's Army directly (Namely Joseph Clarke). The first one is his late brother- Alcander Kaos.
* It is clear that Adam has knowledge of the ancient arts, due to the fact that he understands the language that the people of old used to communicate. This makes him the first character with such notable qualities in "Miracula Luxia IV" and the first one in the entire series, as well.
**Normally, his father- Jared- should be the first one in the list. However, due to the fact that he forgot the knowledge that he once knew, he does not count.
*Adam's favorite Elements are Light and Water.
