**Helio Niccolo** is one of the main characters of Your Throne. He is the young Marquess of the House of Niccolo and the childhood friend of Medea Solon.

## Appearance

Helio has wavy, white hair that has bangs often swept across his deep purple eyes and an angular, pale face. He is tall with broad shoulders and long legs. As a renowned knight, Helio has a muscular build from consistent training and sparring. In **Episode 128**, it is said that Helio "looks just like his mother, who was one of the most beautiful woman in the empire."

He typically wears light-colored clothes of fine fabrics, and long cloaks that sweep the floor as he walks. During social gatherings and formal events, he wears various pieces of jewelry.

## Personality

As an esteemed nobleman of high society, Helio possesses an appropriate level of savoir-faire. Unlike other members of the noble class, Helio refrains from acquainting himself with others and maintains a certain distance at social gatherings. He does not trust others easily and avoids engaging with those who attempt to take advantage of his title and influence as a Marquess. Although he is aloof and intimidating in public, Helio is gentle and caring to those he treasures. Towards Medea, whom he respects and loves, he is warm and compassionate.

An extremely perceptive individual, Helio is capable of understanding a situation from the smallest of details. He can accurately analyze people without personally interacting with others and, according to Medea, has very good intuition. Under her tutelage, Helio became very well-educated and knowledgeable. He and Medea have mastered many of the same subjects and frequently engage in sparring sessions. Well-trained in the art of swordsmanship, Helio is acknowledged as the strongest knight of the Vasilios Empire.
