**Strelitz** is an arrogant young fiendkin who constantly get into trouble. He loves chaos and mayhem, and he is often bored with the quiet, peaceful nature of his home village. His playstyle involves making lots of moves very quickly, but not putting much thought into making chains.

In his story in Petal Crash, Strelitz is brooding over how boring he believes his life is. Upon learning that his village's treasure, a Bird of Paradise, is one of the Sacred Blossoms, he steals it and runs away from his village to collect the remaining seven Blossoms with the goal of wishing to become the King of Hell. During his journey, his inner confidence and bravery is constantly tested, but despite this, he ends up gathering the Blossoms at the Royal Garden in the end. He ultimately decides to wish not be feel small and weak anymore.

## Appearance

Strelitz is actually somewhat human-like in appearance, despite not being one. He looks like a small child with bright green eyes and spikey, orange hair. He has a single pointy fang in his mouth and small demon horns that curve slightly downward. It is implied that many of these physical characteristics could evolve if Strelitz gets involved in combat, as this happens to his mothers in his Story Mode.

Strelitz wears a green coat that drags down to his ankles and baggy black pants. Additionally, he has matching brown boots and a brown belt with a yellow buckle. He wears a black bracelet, which he uses to hold a Bird of Paradise, his Sacred Blossom.

## Personality

Strelitz is an easily agitated child. He gets very easily bored with his calm village life, which causes him to act out and do things that get him into trouble. Despite his insistence that he is a powerful and confident demon in the making, he does not appear to have much courage in him. On the inside, he is deeply insecure about whether or not people respect him and his lack of physical and magical power. He does change somewhat over the course of his story, such as when Yosoti helps him find his sense of direction, and he surprisingly accepts.

## Relationships

### People of His Village

Strelitz is known as a local troublemaker across his village. Despite this, most of the people actually care about him and find his antics rather charming. His moms specifically take measures to make sure that he is safe, like preventing him from using swords and following him when he runs away from the village to find the Sacred Blossoms. Strelitz puts on a front that he dislikes his village, but in actuality, he loves them deep down.
