## Biographical information

### Birth

Gustave, sometime in summer

**Johannes Alexis Eckhart Valdemar**, first of his name, also known as **John** or the **Sun of Valdemar** (발데마르의 태양) is the male lead of the series. He is Giovinetta Valdemar's twin and the older brother of Winfried Valdemar, and the son of Duke Valdemar and Duchess Gustave. At 23, he became the duke of Gustave.

## Appearance

Johannes is a handsome young man, with short blonde hair, light skin, dark brows, and blue eyes. He bears close resemblance to his twin, Giovinetta.

## Personality

Johannes is a bright young man and a promising knight, celebrated as the "shining sun of Valdemar". He is usually cheerful, even smiling at times during war, but he can also be stern about propriety. Although there are rumors about even his father having mistresses awaiting his inspection of Valdemar lands, there has been no talk about Johannes taking any lovers nor fathering any illegitimate children.

As a child, Johannes was sweet and caring, enjoying his time with Giovinetta. Others noted Johannes was remarkably mature and skilled in combat despite his early age. Although Johannes deeply adored and were inseparable from his twin sister, Giovinetta, he began avoiding his sister during her second confinement to the tower.

After his mother's wish for a beautiful human son, his consciousness was split from the Devil. However, he still experienced nightmares that disrupted his sleep from an early age, where he relives the devil's experiences as a third-party. Despite his mother's hostility towards him, he attempted to reconcile their relationship as a child.[?]

## Biography

Johannes bears the Devil, who has been part of the Ducommun line. Since childhood, the Valdemar servants noted Johannes was unusually close to Giovinetta, one maid noting his uncanny gaze towards his sister. After Giovinetta started being confined at 6, Johannes committed himself to honing his excellent physical skills, including archery and swordsmanship.

## Abilities

* **Shapeshifting**: Johannes's may involuntarily or voluntarily transform as the Devil, either into his full or composite form (e.g. only transforming his horns, tail, wings). In his full form as the Devil, he has leathery gray skin, powerful wings, horns, large claws with black talons, wide slanted eyes, and a towering muscular body twice the size of his human form.
* **Flight**: As the Devil, Johannes's can essentially fly infinitely with his bat-like wings.
* **Regeneration**: Johannes's can sustain severe and fatal injuries that require time to recover from, during which his body can be visibly seen mending. For lethal injuries caused by weapons, Johannes repeatedly resurrects until the obstruction is removed. Afterwards, no visible injuries can be seen.
* **Supernatural Strength**: Capable of massacring an entire castle and ripping a person apart with his bare hands, Johannes's strength is enhanced as the Devil; in his full form, Johannes's strength becomes unparalleled.
* **Supernatural Speed**: Incredibly fast flying and on foot, Johannes's movements can be nearly impossible to follow with the human eye.
* **Supernatural Senses**: Johannes's sense of smell, sight, and hearing are exceptional, as he can detect traces of Giovinetta from miles away. This also allows him to learn and master weapons and martial arts much quicker than his predecessors.
