## Personality

Crimson claims to trust no one, even when collaborating closely with others. He's always one step ahead and he shows it by planning ahead and tricking anyone, whenever needed, successfully. Crimson doesn't lack knowledge either and in case he does he always tries first to get information by himself or through his servants before acting. Crimson's compassion only extends as far as himself; he cares not for neither dragon nor human. His ends justify the means, committing any cruelty or atrocity to accomplish his goals. Crimson's preferred method of action is through psychological warfare. In the rarest cases where his planning fails completely, he ends up in a tantrum unable to either understand where he failed or accept it.

Crimson talks on a condescending, authoritative manner and looks down on everyone. He doesn't mince his words and is brutally blunt when expressing himself, often times psychologically and emotionally torturing whoever is on the receiving end of his cruel, but still accurate words. His utter lack of tact makes him come across as a "jerk" in Ragna's view, something Crimson doesn't even try to deny and in fact takes immense pride on it.

Crimson is very secretive and manipulative, often times withholding information or being misleading. He extends this to his enemies as well, tactically weaponizing the Dragons' pride against them by hurling insults or provocations to lure them.

Although the full extent of his motives is not revealed, Crimson resents himself, and hates his inability to die on a very personal level. He was enraged towards Ragna when he believed he was cursed as a result of his own tragedies, which prompted Crimson to shot himself at point-blank, exposing his immortality and elaborating that his condition was much more of a curse and chastised Ragna into ever thinking he could be cursed like himself.

## Biography

### Background

A long time before the current events, Crimson was a Dragon and a member of the Winged Monarchs before he attempted to rebel against his own kind for unknown reasons and tried to kill the Dragon God.

However, this coup ultimately failed, ending with him defeated while the fate of most of his bloodline is unknown. Following this, Crimson went into hiding when everybody else believed he'd been killed, he didn't waste any time and spent it preparing thoroughly in order to not fail a second time.

### Main Timeline

#### Fall of Lese Arc

Through unknown events, Crimson disguised himself as a young maid who ended up in Temruogtaf's captivity with other maids. In the morning of March 1st, Temruogtaf attacked Ronabera with the Wriggling Shade, a forest combined with draconic magic that protects him from sunlight, because of the presence of the survivors but he didn't know of Grymwelte's failure and death. After trying a meal cooked by a chef he kidnapped before, Temruogtaf realized there's nothing better than human flesh thus he started eating, one after another, all his human staff and left the disguised Crimson last. Shortly after his killing spree, Ragna woke up from his slumber and run to the center of the forest with immense speed, drop kicked Temruogtaf and saved the last maid. Ragna, after being surprised to see the maid, didn't waste his time on Temruogtaf's request of surrender and quickly disposed him with a silver aura bomb which killed the superior dragon and the whole forest. Before going, Ragna officially departed from Leonica, his cherished companion as she wasn't strong enough to travel with him anymore but not before one of her tantrums which forced him to knock her out.

Now far away, the maid asked Ragna if he intended to depart from her like that, but Ragna replied it was fine like that as the only one who can travel with him are those whose death didn't matter to him or those who couldn't die. Crimson was perplexed to his answer and Ragna realized their meeting was pure coincidence, but it didn't matter as their accidental encounter saved him time. Ragna declared his intention of hunting all dragons and requested the help of Crimson but the maid was confused and tried to introduce herself but Ragna interrupted him before he could finish and completed his introduction: his cover up was Eliza Yorkshire, a maid from a farming village who went working in a mansion but after the dragons attacked he went missing, but his real identity was Crimson, the previous Winged Monarch of the Winged Bloodline who tried to kill the Dragon God for which he was branded as a traitor. He explained the future and how they fought together: it was him from the future which made possible the transfer of his power from his future self to his present. But his request was meet with a slap in the face from Eliza in tears who declared him a very rude person for his absurd declarations.

#### Crimson and The First Hunt Arc

Crimson disguised as Eliza Yorkshire was walking towards no precise destination while Ragna was still following him. Crimson was quite annoyed by Ragna still following him and his pleas to stop following went unheard, he then asked him how it possible she was a dragon if the sun was up, and he replied that she simply sealed her dragon nature. She thanked him for saving her and wished him the best for his hunting on his own but remarked him she was a woman, but Ragna replied that she could change sex whenever she wanted, Eliza tired of him continued to walk. Crimson deep in thought found Ragna's silver aura and story interesting but one of his servants intruded his thinking by asking he was going to trust him, Crimson assured he would not as he was mostly curious on his silver aura. The servant asked what he would do if he found Ragna to be useless and Crimson replied he would just dispose him by tricking him into death. Eliza didn't notice but while she was deep in thought Ragna closed the distance with her face which scared her by the surprise, Ragna tried to convince Crimson by listing what he did for Leo he could do the same for him, but he only got a disgusted reply. Ragna then as last card decided to show Crimson his true power but before being able to do it he collapsed, Crimson took the opportunity and analyzed his body and discovered he fused his flesh with a silver sword and he didn't simply cover himself with silver aura but he exuded it, the potential of Ragna he though previously was way higher and he was unable to contain his excitement for testing it out as soon as possible. Crimson fixed some of his most chaotic flows of aura but was unable to understand how such boring figure was able to get such power and realized that maybe his claims of the future were real. Ragna woke up near a fireplace while it was already night and Eliza greeted him saying she couldn't just leave behind her savior. Eliza asked if what the dragon he previously killed claimed about the destruction of Kingdom was true and Ragna assured her it's the truth, because of their intention they need to hunt all dragons now including the Winged Monarch who leads them. Eliza asked if he was joking but Ragna explained they did it more than 20 years in the future but now they can do it way earlier. Shortly after Ragna heard noises coming from a nearby abandoned village in fire, he grabbed Eliza and run full speed towards it, Ragna asked Eliza what she wanted him doing and she replied to kill all dragons with a show of force. Ragna quickly kills all the dragons and a superior dragon with a barrage of silver swords. Eliza was able to grab a silver sword from the aftermath and test its edge realizing the possibility of creating an army equipped by Ragna's sword. Crimson released Slime from his stomach and ordered him to clean up the remaining dragons then Crimson reveled himself to Ragna showing interest in their alliance but because his powers can be a threat to him Crimson would accept the alliance if Ragna drunk a poison which would activate only the moment he rebelled against Crimson. Ragna didn't beat an eye and drunk the poison which left Crimson deluded by his lack of hesitation and asked him what was pushing him so much to kill all dragons, Ragna replied he wanted to protect what his future-self lost. Crimson found his intention extremely boring but he recognized Ragna as a tool had potential, so they allied for the destruction of the dragon race, the dragon god and himself lastly.

Crimson present himself as a magician and Ragna as the dragon slayer, Ragna the Reaper, to the dragon hunters' survivors and to their questions of what just happened he just replied it was just magic, a phenomenon widely known but not deeply enough to be questioned by anyone. Michael, the chief of the dragon hunters' group, thanked the duo and explained they flee away from Tortiere when a sudden violent Tornado hit and destroyed the city. Crimson recognized instantly it was done by Disaster Thrower, 3rd rank of the Winged Bloodline. Ragna decided to hunt him immediately but Crimson intervened and with a simple push made Ragna collapse, he didn't realize the fatigue of his muscles. Crimson suggested Ragna to take a 3-day break and leave all the work to him while showing his diabolical smile. Crimson refuses the request of the hunters to intervene, he first reminded them their uselessness but then he showed them there was a way: Ragna's silver swords. Truth was Crimson wanted to experiment Ragna's silver aura and weaponry on low level warriors and see their effectiveness.

Crimson provided the hunters with advanced fire-guns he stored in a dimensional storage, while they trained with such guns Crimson used Ragna's silver aura to enhance the ammo. Ragna confided with Crimson that he was uncomfortable with him calling him "The Reaper" and having the hunters bowing to him. He didn't want other people following him as he still believes in his curse: those who can follow him are those whose death didn't matter to him of those who couldn't die. Crimson reminded him he abandoned Leo for that reason but before he could deny it he got interrupted by Crimson insisting it was true as he started this journey for Leonica only. Ragna admitted he was scared of leaving Leo behind alone, Crimson thanked him because he decided to open his heart to him and so he could understand him more. Crimson immediately and with a diabolical smile suggested confining Leonica into one of his dimensional spaces to keep her safe forever. Ragna tried to punch him, but his physical condition failed him, and Crimson replied by kicking him a few times. Crimson admitted he hated Ragna for acting so familiar with him and reminded him he didn't know anything about him truly, but he assured him that Disaster Thrower will be killed and that he wasn't planning wasting pawns. Lastly Crimson reminded Ragna that he wasn't cursed but he was, and he showed him how after blasting his head off he was alive again. The hunters investigated the tantrum and were shocked to see Crimson dead but he reminded them it was just a magic trick. Crimson went disposing his old body far away and met Slime who was doing reconnaissance on the ruins of Tortiere. Crimson rewarded Slime with his old body for his good job. Slime debriefed Crimson and showed how the 3rd rank dragon was hidden inside a wind vortex at the center of the city while several other dragons were hidden under the ruble, lastly, he found several limbless women floating in front of the vortex. Crimson remembered the dragon terrible habit, but he joyed because that would keep Disaster Thrower busy for the next few days. Finally Crimson proceeded to plan for the coming hunt.

When the group arrived via truck, Crimson taunted Disaster into following them and succeeded. The hunters were initially afraid again but then their strengthened their resolve and started shooting to the tornado following them. Crimson first part of the plan was making Disaster approach the rising sunlight which offset his defensive powers leaving only his regeneration. The first batch of bullets were able to freeze portion of the tornado to the surprise of the hunters, the truth was silver doesn't freeze dragon blood but the magical energy inside it just like it was happening with the tornado controlled by magic. Crimson expected Disaster of underestimating them after only a few lead bullets enhanced by Ragna, but at the same time he was joyous of the long-term impact of enhancing anything to fight dragons effectively which would result in a revolution in the war between humans and dragons. The second batch of ammo was silver bullets enhanced by Ragna and they resulted devastating by freezing whole portions of the tornado. Crimson drove the truck under a bridge and when the tornado just behind them touched the bridge it completely collapsed because the bridge was enhanced by Ragna too. Everything went according to Crimson plan and he got surprising results for future use. Disaster after falling got pierced by a pike, after an initial struggle by the dragon he got hit by the truck and finished off by the hunters.

Before departing, Crimson gifted the hunters with ammo, food and trucks. The hunters were perplexed by such generosity, but Crimson assured them it was all required for their safe escape. Crimson then casted a spell on them and made them completely forgot of him. The hunters, initially a bit dizzy, remembered Ragna and thanked him for all the help he gave them. Ragna was embarrassed but after Crimson's encouragement he reminded them it was a team effort. After the hunter's departure, Crimson brought out a radio and showed to Ragna how the Kingdom was instructing all citizens to reach the Capital for safe refuge. He realized by himself it was a trap and they both moved towards the Capital.

#### The Royal Capital Arc

Crimson and Ragna arrived at the Capital the 8th of March. Crimson had already foreseen that after the 3rd seat's death, Ultimatia will send the 2nd seat, Woltekamui, to investigate. Thus, now the Capital was left weaker and possibly the only occasion to kill Ultimatia for many years to come. He decided to execute this plan also so he can witness Ragna's full power and plan accordingly for his future plans. Arrived at the Capital, Crimson disguised himself as Lady Veronica. From the train station they were able to enter the Old District successfully even though Ragna was suffering from the presence of too many people, there Crimson left Ragna to Slime's care while he went searching for his other subordinate but not before reminding Ragna to not do anything rash. Crimson already concluded the Winged bloodline was already cleaning up the population secretly as the actual Capital's population was already higher then normal but not close to the number of refuges who should be actually present. Crimson arrived at a club where he found Golem using the identity of the Lieutenant General Rowan and enjoying his time with several women. When Golem saw Crimson he got a panic attack and got taken away by him in another room. Crimson was deluded seeing Golem who was ordered to take a high-ranking army officer position to gather information was instead wasting his time and possibly making his own subordinates suspicious of his actions. Golem tried to flatter Crimson unsuccessfully and to Crimson threats of changing him into something maybe not even human Golem immediately informed him he had already gathered information. Golem asked why Crimson suddenly appeared and he replied the plan changed and they were hunting Ultimatia now. Crimson ordered Chimera to show up and ordered them to make preparations for the incoming fight between Ragna and the Winged Monarch because the 2 remaining subordinates of the Monarch, Nebulim and Borgius, will interfere in the fight.

Chimera accepted gladly the order, but Golem refused it because they have been collecting info on the winged bloodline for a long time and now, he was suddenly throwing away the original plan. Golem reminded Crimson that a good subordinate it's one who shares their opinions, but Crimson utterly rejected it. Golem and Chimera started an argument on who was the best subordinate, but Crimson stopped them and reminded them that insulting each other was like insulting indirectly him. They returned on the original argument and Golem explained the reasons he didn't want to fight was because of the Winged Monarch magic, time magic. He showed them the recordings of what happened when Ultimatia sized the Kingdom inside the royal palace, and he believed there was no way to beat her even with the monstrous power of Ragna. Crimson simply replied by ordering Golem to self-destruct, Golem shocked didn't understand the reason but Crimson reminded him that he was implying Crimson himself was so stupid and so fixated on his new pawn that he was taking an unwinnable gamble.

Crimson explained that even Ultimatia had a weak point and Chimera shortly after realized that the Winged Monarch can use only one magic skill at the time. Golem still doubted if that alone would give them an advantage, but Crimson explained him that by ambushing her and attacking again every time, she will try to restore her state automatically she would eventually deplete her magical power. In the meantime, her 2 subordinates will interfere thus he reminded them the importance of their roles. Crimson understood their doubt towards his new pawn, but he wasn't worried because since he met Ragna, he planted suggestions in his mind so one day he would become the obedient subordinate. Shortly after he got contacted by Slime reveling that Ragna betrayed them.

Crimson became enraged by Ragna not following his orders but eventually he calmed down because his plan of testing Ragna's true power was still on and now he didn't need to worry on how to infiltrate the castle anymore. Chimera reveled the fight was moving outside the district, and it was going in Ragna's favor. Crimson guessed that Nebulime may have died as he felt the barrier around the capital suddenly disappeared but he didn't waste any more time and started ordering his subordinates. Crimson ordered Slime to go to the place that smelled good to him while Golem had to bring down Borgius who now showed up, before going he gave to Crimson the key to the instrument he prepared beforehand. Golem was able to ambush Borgius while Slime found the barely survived Nebulime and ate him.

While Crimson was explaining that even Ultimatia has weak points he suddenly the world's time has been rewinded. He immediately ordered Chimera to bring them all near where Ragna was while he ordered Golem to give him the key. Shortly after arriving the time got frozen for everyone but Crimson and he witnessed the events between Ragna being able to move while time was frozen and Ultimatia who got severally traumatized. When time moved again, Crimson saved Ragna at the last second before being obliterated by the King's Aurora beam. Crimson wasn't surprised by Ragna's lost because he didn't follow his orders, but he was surprised to discover that Ragna was able to move while time was stopped, perhaps caused by Ultimatia or by him or even by them both. While Ultimatia was still shaking from the trauma caused by Ragna, Crimson triggered explosives hidden around the Capital before which resulted in massive civilian casualties. Ultimatia was unable to think correctly anymore after seeing such tragedy tried to rewind time again, but she was stopped by Nebulime who reminded her that she would exhaust her energies and that was what their enemies wanted. Crimson disappeared from their eyes before there were able to learn his identity, Crimson approached the instrument prepared beforehand but he picked up a bottle and broken it on Golem's face. He reminded Golem that he ordered to place the explosives in every target, but they didn't explode but to Golem's excuses he stabbed him in the face with the broken bottle and reminded him that the value of life depends on the situation, if enough people died maybe Ultimatia may had tried to rewind time again. After Crimson entered the Globe's Void, he ordered Golem to stay back to dispose his body and to continue following the Winged Bloodline movements. To Golem protests he agreed it was a punishment, a punishment for those who tried to test their master, as Crimson already knew the actions of Golem were to test if he was still the same tyrannical being he always was. Crimson prepared to teleport towards his Moon base, he admitted his plan was ruined but he got precious data and in a few years with enough preparation they'll be able to exterminate the Winged Bloodline. Ragna suddenly woke up, he was unable to accept he had lost and requested Crimson to let him go fight again, Crimson tried to calm him down saying he did well, but Ragna got angry to his response as Ultimatia was still alive. Ragna tried to use his silver battle arts inside the Globe Void before being restrained but it was too late, Bebulime, now completely matured, was able to find where they were and tried to open the Globe's Void dimension. Crimson, now enraged that his tool was damaged, ordered Golem to snipe Nebulime but he failed and got destroyed by Borgius. Ragna joined too and with Nebulime from outside, while they try to fight again, they end up greatly damaging the Globe's Void.

#### Escape From Lese Arc

After the Globe Chamber's destruction, Crimson and the unconscious Ragna ended up inside a fortress controlled by the Argentum Corps, in the northeast of the country. Crimson was brought in front of the Argentum Corps commander, Starlia Lese, but he already realized the situation because tricking her is extremely complicated even for him. After the princess was debriefed on how Crimson suddenly appeared in the fortress teleportation circle and that he was with another person but he was unconscious but they confirmed he wasn't a disguised dragon, Starlia offered Crimson some meat but even though he was reluctant because he already realized it was dragon meat he took a bite anyway to not raise suspicions. Starlia showed the meat was from a dragon which made Crimson puke while she was laughing. Starlia quickly changed her mood and questioned Crimson who he was and how did he arrive there, but not before warning him that lies don't work with her. Crimson went over his knowledge of her, anything has its own aura, and she can see its flown thanks to her gifted eyesight which no one else can. The entire thought lasted only two seconds but Starlia questioned him if his silence was his final answer, but Crimson quickly apologized and realized he was able to lie to her by manipulating his aura flow and not showing his irritation. Crimson, using all his acting skills, reveled his dragonic left eye and presented himself as Crish Weiss, a thaumaturge. Crimson faked a background as a herbalist living the Capital, which was peaceful until that same day when sudden explosions appeared, he tried to escape the Capital with his injured assistant through a teleportation circle to outside the country but instead he ended up in the fortress without him knowing the cause. The Argentum Corps Chief Thaumaturge, Fu, asked Crish where he learned to use magic because such skills required a lot of resources, so he inferred he was a Solarian defector and Crimson played with him by confirming it indirectly. Starlia intervened and called out Crimson's lying skills as everything he said was lies mixed with truths. Starlia revealed how she was able to detect lies, as Crimson already knew, but that was only what the public knows. She admitted that with sufficient training one could manipulate their own aura flow, and this was the reason why she didn't look for the flow but the color of the aura. Starlia revealed that even by the color he was telling the truth, but his aura color smelled weird, Crimson realized his mistake but before he could say anything Starlia launched her silver sword close to Crimson's face and invited him to wield it. But even after he wielded it, she was still unsatisfied. She then reveled how she's able to see directly to the nature of people, which is the accumulated history and way of life of someone, but Crimson nature was a foul pitch black of mass of death. Starlia immediately called all the Argentum Corps member present to draw their swords, Crimson tried to defend himself from the accuses but Starlia didn't want to listen him, whatever he was even Dornia's nature was more respectable and by eliminating him she would make a favor to the world. In a split second, Crimson started to plan what to do after she killed him because he couldn't die anyway so he decided to hide until he could find Ragna, escape the fortress and leaving the Argentum Corps' fate to the Winged Bloodline. But before he could be hit, he was saved by Ragna, to his irritation as he ruined his plans again. Shortly after Starlia collapsed after seeing Ragna's true nature and Crimson tried to imagine what Starlia could have seen with her eyes. The Argentum Corps tried to attack Ragna but they were disposed quickly. Crimson quickly seized the opportunity to use Ragna to reach an agreement, if they sparred Crimson the two would follow their orders.

After the due returned to their cell, Ragna questioned Crimson why he tried to run away while Crimson questioned asked him why he ruined his plan. Ragna replied that for any second Ultimatia lived more people would die but Crimson reminded him he lost, and he was saving him. Crimson asked him how he would make up for the losses and he replied he would hunt Ultimatia. Crimson realized he already knew he was stupid, but he thought he was the spineless type and not a ticking bomb for dragons, so Crimson recognized that a part of the fault was his too and decided to forgive him. Shortly after Ragna asked if Slime died and Crimson, who just noticed his absence, reanimated him.

Crimson, followed by Ragna, intervened in the Argentum Corps escape briefing, to the members' surprise. Crimson reveled even them wanted to escape, if they could help with the escape, he would give information on the enemy and lend Ragna's power. If they don't collaborate, they'll only die together.

But Starlia fiercely refused his proposal as she saw him only as a deceitful creature thus, she doesn't trust him. Regardless of what Crimson said Starlia refused even after sharing deep knowledge on one of the two superior dragons who will attack them, Orto Zora. Left without choice, Crimson forced Ragna to intervene as the princess was weak to him, Ragna doubted he was able to do it, but Crimson remembered him he already explained which will be their fate if they don't collaborate. Ragna reveled he too thought that Crimson was a deceitful disgusting person but one thing that was sure was his desire to exterminate all dragons and that was why they were working together. Ragna declared himself as the best dragon hunter and she could use him. After a moment of suspense from the conflicted princess, she accepted their help while Crimson laughed to her shy reply. Crimson congratulated her on her wise decision, but Starlia reminded him she would make the plans while he would only provide information, and lastly she asked what happened to the superior dragons who were besieging them, and Crimson reveled they attacked the Winged Monarch in the Capital.

Before Ragna started preparing for the battle, Crimson ordered him to use only half of his aura while the other half he had to use it to enhance the Argentum Corps' weapons. Immediately after Crimson was forced to return to his cell by Starlia. Sometime later, Crimson evaded from his cell again and joined unobserved the thaumaturge team. Fu was surprised when he realized Crimson's presence and asked him why he was there, Crimson reveled the reason they weren't able to make the teleportation circle work was the lack of information and ingenuity and he could help him.

Sometime later, Crimson met Ragna and reveled him the reason why he shouldn't use all his power. The Winged Bloodline now knew their existence and they would immediately call Woltekamui to deal with him but as Ragna wasn't able to recover, he would never be able to fight him. Crimson explained that now they lost their surprise element so the incoming battle will be brutal without being able to use all his power.

Crimson met Ragna again sometime later in his cell, and after receiving confirmation that he followed his previous order Crimson ordered Ragna to put all his remaining aura inside a single weapon that will be used by him, preferably one of the princess swords. Shortly after Starlia came and asked Crimson what he was doing but he simply answered that he was staying in his cell but Starlia noticed the refugees calmed down and thought it was Crimson's work but he negated any intervention with a grin on his face. Starlia then took Ragna away as she wanted to speak with him privately.

After the battle started, the dragons were able to enter the fortress thanks to a mature dragon who was able to use time magic. After the Argentum Corps lost many members, they tried a suicide attack led by Major Isaac, but it failed because the time magic dragon was followed by a barrier magic mature dragon too. In a desperate move Isaac and two other members were able to bring down the barrier and from a split second from death they were saved by Crimson who used a solar grenade which was triggered by the time magic and resulted in the mature dragon being subjected to and endless wave of sunlight which killed it. Isaac, and the survivors, were blinded but he recognized Crimson voice but also many voices who weren't familiar. Crimson reveled he recruited all the refugee to fight but in truth he hypnotized them slowly while he was away from his cell previously. To Isaac's protest of using the refugees as soldiers, Crimson hypnotized the remaining members of the Argentum Corps and Isaac. After witnessing Fu's power, Crimson realized the talents of the Argentum Corps members and wanted to keep them all with the minimun amount of damage. Crimson, the refugees and the thaumaturges quickly escaped to the teleportation circle room to reinforce it.
