* Félix
* Argos
* Flairmidable

**Félix Fathom** is the maternal cousin of Adrien Agreste who lives in London, the son of the late American billionaire Colt Fathom and aristocrat Lady Amelie Graham de Vanily and the nephew of Emilie Agreste and Gabriel Agreste. He is first introduced in Season 3 in the episode of the same name.

The current Wielder of the Peacock Miraculous, of which he uses to transform into **Argos**, a Peacock-themed Superhero with the power of Amokization.

## Appearance

### Physical appearance

Félix is tall with blond, combed-down hair and bright green eyes. He is borderline identical to his cousin Adrien. The only noticeable differences are their clothes and the different ways they style their hair.

### Civilian attire

He wears a light gray, long-sleeved dress shirt with a black neck tie underneath a dark gray vest, dark gray dress pants, and black dress shoes.

### As Argos

Argos has a blue jumpsuit with light blue lines running each of his sides with a peacock-feather design (with dark blue feathers with light blue centers) running them with a turtle neck that has a peacock-feather-shapped zipper that is dark blue with a light blue center. Over it, he has a tailcoat of the same color and a pale yellow inside with three dark blue strapes with light blue buttons around his torso, similar strapes around his wrists, a five-pointed tail that resembles a peacock tail with the design of a dark blue peacock feather with a light blue center on each point and a hood that has two feather-like shapped strapes with light blue buttons, on on each side, and adorned with real peacock feathers. He uses dark blue gloves and blue high boots with a dark blue strape with a light blue button on each one. His skin is pale indigo and his eyes have light magenta irises and vivid violet sclera.

## Personality

Similar to Gabriel, Félix changed when his father passed away, meaning he wasn't always mischievous. Félix is complete opposite of his twin cousin. Unlike Adrien who is kind and gentle, Félix is rude, sneaky, and according to Ladybug, very pushy, especially when it comes to getting what he desires, even being willing to negotiate with Hawk Moth and put others in danger. Adrien, as Cat Noir, says to him, "I bet you don't have a lot of friends, acting the way you do", implying that, Félix doesn't get along well with others because of his mischievous. Despite these negative traits, Félix is shown to genuinely care for his family, as seen that he has a strong love for his mother, and steals Graham de Vanily ring to satisfy her.

Felix is perhaps best categorized by sneakiness, selfishness and a lack of culpability or concern for others as long as he gets what he wants. These traits become exacerbated when he becomes Flarirmidible, and he explains to Ladybug that the newfound power she's given him makes him feel invincible. His actions in offering an alliance with Hawk Moth in exchange for the twin rings and willingly giving out all but two active Miraculouses to his evil-intentioned uncle in exchange for the Peacock Miraculous indicates that he is not above nor has any hesitance or remorse in committing criminal acts or endangering innocent lives if it will advance his agenda.

In "Emotion", it's revealed that, under all the coldness and selfishness, he harbors great hate and resentment towards everyone that uses their authority to repress the freedom of others. This causes him to desire a world where everyone can be free and live as they want and goes to great lengths to do it, including betraying those who trusted him (like he did with Ladybug by stealing her yoyo, giving the magical portal to the Miracle Box, to his uncle, so he can get the Peacock Miraculous) or creating a sentimonster that allows him to destroy anyone he wants. However, despite his pure intentions of creating a free world, he did not perceive that, by using his powers vengefully, he is acting the same way as the ones he hates, something that Ladybug points out when she compares him to Monarch.

His vision of a world without oppressors also includes the ones he cares about and/or sympathizes with, as he spares Adrien and Kagami seeing them as equals who also experienced the same pain as him. He is even willing to spare the ones they care about, like Marinette Dupain-Cheng, who is the girl Adrien loves and Kagami's best friend. However, after perceiving how upset they became after seeing his actions and how he wasn't able to find Marinette, believing he erased her accidentally and was unable to bring her back, and how not everyone is like the ones he hates, he was able to realize the error of his ways and bring everyone else back.

Unlike the other Peacock Miraculous holders that were showed so far, he cares very deeply for the sentimonsters that are created by its power, including his. One example is when he feels sorry for the sentimonster Strikeback and its clones when Ladybug and the other heroes send them to the sun. Another example is when he realized the error of creating Red Moon to satisfy his selfish desires, what caused him to act the same way as those before him. This leads him to free it from reality with great grief.

## Abilities

### As Félix

Félix is a master of magic tricks and a skilled pickpocket. He is also good at basketball, being able to score a basket while facing away from the hoop.

According to Adrien, he is also skilled in martial arts. This was seen when he was able to fight with three akumatized supervillains (Lady Wifi, Princess Fragrance and Reflekta) simultaneously, as well as when he easily kicked Lady Wifi's tablet right out of her hand.

Félix demonstrates ingenuity and psychological flexibility as he tends to come up with creative solutions and resist external pressure.

In "Multiplication" he is revealed to be a triple kung fu and horse riding medalist, chess prodigy, and Englands youngest graduate.

### As Argos

Argos is able to infuse a feather plucked from his hand fan with his power, transforming it into an amok, and send it out to possess an object owned by a chosen target, with whom he can communicate telepathically. While he is communicating, a blue curved peacock mask appears in front of him and his target's faces. His actions will then give an emotion from his target a physical form of that person's choosing, which would act as the target's ally until recalled via a snap of her fingers, which destroys it.

Even if he didn't create them, Argos can either bring back to life dormant sentimonsters or destroy them through their amoks.

## Relationships

### Adrien Agreste/Chat Noir

Félix and Adrien were very close during childhood. However, as seen in "Félix", their bond seems to be much weaker and it is revealed that Adrien did not attend Félix father's funeral because his father refused to let him. In the same episode, Félix takes Adrien's phone, dresses like his doppelganger, and impersonates him while insulting his friends. This is what leads to Alya, Juleka, and Rose's Akumatizations. Félix then claims to feel remorseful and apologizes to Adrien, calling him "his favorite cousin" and stating he's "really lucky to have him".

Félix might harbor some kind of jealousy towards Adrien as he was surrounded by friends while Félix was alone. He also called him an idiot.

In "Emotion", Félix captures Adrien with his sentimonster and goes in his place to his uncle's Diamond's Dance, flirting with Kagami, dancing with Marinette, and when the former fights him for making her loved ones disappear, Argos releases his cousin and revealed he was doing this for him, to free him from his father's control and to make him happy, to which Adrien tells him he couldn't be happy without his friends, father and the girl he loves, to which Argos revealed he didn't make Marinette disappear as he wanted him to be free to do what he wanted but when they didn't find Marinette, Argos worriedly thought he made disappear forever and regretfully complied with his cousin and Kagami's demand to restore everyone, which did make Marinette reappear and an ashamed Argos fled from the scene.}}

### Gabriel Agreste

Félix has been fooling his uncle and aunt since he and Adrien were kids as they are noticeably similar. Like Gabriel, Félix has also lost a person he loves and cares about: his father. Nevertheless, his relationship with Gabriel is explicitly strained and complicated. In "Félix", after arriving at the Agreste mansion with his mother, Félix attempts to greet his uncle with a handshake, but Gabriel doesn't move his hands. When Félix reaches for another handshake the same day just before departing, Gabriel reciprocates, unaware that Félix uses this as an opportunity to steal his ring. Right before Félix returns to London with his mother, he smiles deviously out the train window since he managed to fool his uncle.

Félix shows visible mistrust of Gabriel and goes on to become aware of his villain identity. In “Gabriel Agreste”, Félix gets suspicious of his uncle and listens in on his conversation with Nathalie. When he sneaks around in Gabriel's atelier, he comes across his uncle’s sentimonster. He accuses Gabriel's sentimonster of being Shadow Moth and is threatened by him, which almost leads to Félix's akumatization. Luckily, he manages to reject the akuma and rips the cuff of sentimonster's pants before running off. Félix then secretly keeps watch on his uncle and witnesses his pants unscathed, confirming his suspicions that Gabriel Agreste is Shadow Moth.

In "Emotion, Félix disguised as Adrien crashes his uncle's Diamond's Dance, by exposing his true identity and the Peacock Miraculous, and when Gabriel tries to confront him, Félix as Argos uses his new sentimonster to make him disappear to stop him from controlling him, his mother and Adrien. And when Ladybug accuses him of working for Monarch, Argos states he works for no one.

### Amelie Graham de Vanily

Félix has a strong bond with his mother, as he cares and loves her a lot. He would do anything to make her happy; in "Félix", he even goes as far as to team up with Hawk Moth or steal to get her one of the Graham de Vanily Twin Rings that she wanted. It is later revealed at the end of the episode that she only wanted the ring to give it to Félix, which indicates her deep love for him, too.

In "Gabriel Agreste", he gets angry when the Gabriel sentimonster remarks that on how upset his mother would be if he makes him disappear.

In "Emotion" Félix instructs his mother to pretend he's missing in front of Gabriel to prove how cruel he is, as he shows indifference at his sister-in-law's worry and throws her from his Diamond's Dance, which was seen by Félix, who was impersonating Adrien. And later Amelie admits to Félix that he was right about his uncle being a monster and that everyone in his house were, to which Argos detransformed and embraced his mother, telling her that not all of them was a monster.

### Emilie Agreste

Félix has been fooling his uncle and aunt since he and Adrien were kids as they are noticeably similar.

In "Gabriel Agreste", Félix seems to care for his aunt as he is seen smiling at her portrait in his uncle's atelier. In "Risk", Félix discovers his aunt in the glass coffin when he was taken to the repository during his investigation of his uncle's secret identity as Shadow Moth. Shocked and flabbergasted by this discovery, Félix retreats to his uncle's atelier, where he was confronted by his uncle and Nathalie while under a guise of his cousin.

### Marinette Dupain-Cheng/Ladybug

Félix and Marinette have never met each other personally, but Félix dislikes Marinette, discarding her declaration of love to Adrien and deleting it along with everyone else's video messages to Adrien.

In "Emotion", Félix pretends to be Adrien and becomes uncomfortable around Marinette. Later in the Diamond's Dance, after Marinette infiltrates in the party to confess her love for him, believing him to be Adrien, he takes her hand and dances with her, while calling the other guests monsters with a smirk, which makes Marinette realize he's not Adrien, and he transforms into Argos and takes Marinette away while making everyone else disappear, locking her into a trash container to keep her safe from his sentimonster, and when a restored Adrien accuses Félix of making disappear the girl he loves, Félix replied he's not that cruel and takes him and Kagami to the container he put Marinette inside, only to see to his horror that she wasn't there and didn't reappear when he snapped his fingers, making Félix fear he disappeared her forever and filled with remorse, he restores all the people he made disappear, which also made Marinette reappear and after seeing her hug Adrien and Kagami, a guilt ridden Argos leaves the scene.

As Ladybug, they are both on bad terms with each other. While Félix is pretending to be Adrien and tries to kiss her, she quickly notices something is wrong and attacks him out of self-defense. He is not afraid of her, however, since, as seen in "Félix", he is confident in winning the battle against her and Cat Noir.

In "Emotion", Ladybug angrily confronts Argos, blaming him of stealing all the other Miraculouses and give them to Monarch, thus endangering innocent people in Paris, which Argos confirms that he only did that to get the Peacock Miraculous and free the world of oppressive people, which he wanted to do with the Ladybug and Cat Miraculouses, but when Ladybug refused to surrender her Miraculous and compared him to Monarch, he decided to use his own power to make his wish come true and disappeared Ladybug as well, but soon released her when Adrien and Kagami made him see the error of his ways.

### Chloé Bourgeois

Félix knows Chloé as a friend of his cousin, always taking the opportunity to express his displeasure of her as he's always found her irritating to be around. Félix thinks of her as a 'brat', which he calls her in a video he sends back to Adrien's friends while pretending to be Adrien.

As seen in "Gabriel Agreste", the two still have a strained relationship. In their brief interaction in this episode, when Félix visits the Agreste mansion for a celebration, Chloé insults him by calling him 'the fake Adrien'. Félix gets back at Chloé, however, by fooling her into believing that he really is Adrien, commenting that she's 'just as foolish as ever'.

In "Emotion", when crashing the Diamond's Dance, Félix as Argos reveals his power to everyone present which Chloé calls ridiculous and thus he makes her disappear first.

### Kagami Tsurugi

Their relationship is currently unknown, but in the "episode of Gabriel Agreste", when they're in Adrien's room, Félix and Kagami glare at each other coldly, showing their strained relationship.

In "Emotion", while impersonating Adrien, he flirts with Kagami at the Diamond's Dance, while empathizing with her feelings about being controlled by her mother, and when he reveals his true identity and transforms into Argos, one of the things he did was using his sentimonster to make disappear her mother to free her, much to Kagami's anger, who furiously fought Argos and called him a monster, much to his confusion as he didn't understand why she wasn't happy for that.

### Duusu

In "Multiplication", when Félix wears the Peacock Miraculous, he meets Duusu, who asks him if he's the new owner. Félix ambiguously answers that he's way more than being Duusu's owner.

### Notes

* Emilie Agreste mysteriously disappeared before the events of Season 1. She's later revealed to have passed from using the damaged Peacock Miraculous, and that she's kept in a glass coffin in a garden under the Agreste mansion.
* In "Félix", it is said that Gabriel did not let Adrien go to his uncle's funeral.

## Trivia

* Félix was the original name of the Cat Noir character in the PV, who was later replaced by Adrien.
	+ This character was discarded as Thomas Astruc believed Félix was not purposeful to the series, as he came off as an anime cliché, and no one was convinced his dynamic with Ladybug as a couple of heroes to be appropriate.
	+ For a while, Thomas considered bringing Félix back at some point, but since then, he did not have intentions to use him, eventually outright stating that PV Félix will never appear.

 File:PV HQ (8).png
* Despite the fact that Félix as Cat Noir was scrapped, his design and name were reused to create Félix Fathom, Adrien's cousin. The most notable differences between the two are PV Félix's eye color being steely grey instead of green and his hair being combed in the opposite direction.
* Félix's name was inspired by the Latin word for happy/lucky.
* So far, Félix is the 2nd person after Lila Rossi, other than Plagg, to know about Adrien's crush on Ladybug.
* He is the 3rd person to resist akumatization, following Chloé and Alya.
* He's the 2nd person after Nathalie Sancoeur, other than Nooroo, Duusu, and Bunnyx, who finds out about Gabriel's identity as Hawk Moth/Shadow Moth.
* Félix having the Dog Miraculous and Adrien the Cat Miraculous symbolize their counterpart dynamic with Cats and Dogs often being considered opposites.
	+ Interestingly, both boys possess traits of the other's Miraculous animal, as Félix is shown to be solitary and self-centered (traits associated to cats), while Adrien is faithful and loves being with his friends (traits associated to dogs).
* Félix is the first occasional superhero to not return a Miraculous after a mission,
	+ the third not wanting to return the Miraculous (after Alya Césaire and Chloé Bourgeois), and
	+ the second to use it for selfish reasons (after Chloé Bourgeois).
* Flairmidable is the first named Miraculous holder whose superhero name isn't a direct reference to his Miraculous' animal.
	+ Instead, his name is a combination of "Flair" (meaning style, poise or finesse) and "Formidable" (meaning great, talented or mighty).
* Thanks to Félix, Gabriel has access to almost all the Miraculous in the Chinese Miracle Box.
	+ The only miraculouses Félix didn't give to Gabriel in their exchange are the Peacock Miraculous (which Félix owns from the exchange), the Ladybug Miraculous, and the Black Cat Miraculous.
