Viktor Celebrant

**Viktor Celebrant** is the leader of the Order of Celebrant. He is essentially the commander of all of Odyss' forces, based in Bismuth, and he only ever appears when Odyss does. He is known to be one of the most powerful Vampires of Bismuth.

Near the conclusion of Carokiiv's Prophecy of the End, he, along with Velaren and Ordecius, died defending Odyss and the Author of the End to buy them time to escape from the False Emperor. He and the other Knights were later remembered as protectors of Carokiiv after their true history was uncovered at the conclusion of the Prophecy of the End.

## Characteristics

The leader, founder and commander of the Order, Celebrant. Celebrant is known to be very mysterious, other than the fact he revealed his true name to the Near Humans, which didn't really reveal anything about him.

Celebrant is only famous among Near Humans as a sort of twisted demonic legend due to his immense magical capacity, and little is known about him in general other than how many lives he takes whenever he had appeared.

Celebrant seems to confide in his fellow knight and subordinate Velaren even on the battlefield, but even then he doesn't tell her everything. They are very close and are suspected to be related in some way, although this is not certain. Celebrant never ever tasks Velaren with any important military action, though.

Celebrant cannot stand a lot of the knights in actuality, and puts up with them simply because of their skills. He tends to bully Gilder a lot, especially after the latter almost sold out Bismuth. Celebrant is known to only trust Hawthorne and Ordecius with anything major, since they tend to be the least governed by emotion and most rational.

Celebrant is shown to be the only one who can successfully instruct Emirion without provoking rebellious behavior from the latter. He knows how Emirion actually looks.
