Chronus Carlyle

***This page contains spoilers! Read at your own risk!***

“...I'll be taking Alice with me. No one can have her..."
Chronus is a resident of the Kingdom of Time who resides in the Clock Tower.

### In-game description

Having little to say, he keeps stealing time from people. With such a mysterious aspect, his true feeling remains unknown. But things starts to change when...

## **Appearance**

Chronus has short golden sandy hair which appears to be wavy and combed towards the left, and has turquoise blue/green eyes. He wears a long black cloak with gold colored gear designs. Several pocket watches hang from his hip, and another pocket watch hangs from his neck. He appears to be a tall young man with a rather expressionless and unamused face.

## **Personality**

Chronus is an introverted person who rarely leaves the Clock tower, and hence isn't much knowledgeable about other events happening around him. Because of this, he's also not familiar with the daily routines and cultures of others living around him, and he never sleeps because of his role. Nevertheless, he's not a tired and worn out person, and diligently does his duties everyday. But he knows a lot about time since he's the Timekeeper, and is a dutiful and responsible person who is well-respected by others with major roles since he meticulously performs one of the most important roles in Wonderland.

He usually has an expressionless/unamused face, and rarely shows his emotions. He's also a quite straightforward person which can sometimes cause awkward situations, and he speaks whatever is on his mind without pre-thinking it's consequences, though he doesn't do it with ill intentions even though it may offend some. He seems to be lacking in intelligence and tactics, and his way of suggesting ideas without thinking about it's consequences clearly indicates it.

## **History**

Because of his role as the Timekeeper, Chronus steals time from the Real world using magic to prevent time from stopping in Wonderland. Since Wonderland can't generate time on it's own, he has to regularly replenish the consumed time in Wonderland by stealing time from the people of the Real world. Moreover, since the Spinner of Tales has allotted him that role, he's obliged to carry out his role's duties by compulsorily stealing others' time, and he's the only one in Wonderland permitted to take or give back someone's time. He is assisted by Sidd Rex who brings the time stolen by Chronus to the Clock tower, the place where Chronus works and stays.

Chronus resides in the topmost floor of the Clock tower where the Giant clock is located, and this is because all the stolen time from different places is stored in the Giant clock. He always monitors the Giant clock since time gets distributed throughout Wonderland from it, and hence he has to ensure that nothing goes wrong. Because of this, he never sleeps and mostly stays cooped up in the Clock tower, but nevertheless he remains healthy despite his complete lack of sleep. Though his job of stealing time is not known to many, there are false rumors that he steals time from people in Wonderland, and thus fellow residents of Wonderland see him as a villain and avoid him fearing that he would steal their time.

## **Abilities**

Chronus wields a golden cane with a bluish glass orb on top with small gear pieces inside it, and two golden light in an elliptical shape appear while circles which look like clocks having Roman numerals appear in the background when he uses magic. Since he's the Timekeeper, he's the only one who can use time magic, including stealing others' time and restoring it, though it's not known if he can steal time from Wonderland's residents.

But he can't reverse time, and neither can he go into the past and change things. He also can't see or go into the future, but he can see and show the past to others. He can also stop time, but it's quite draining to use that spell. Chronus also uses an hourglass kept in his pocket to cast magic, and the hourglass has a gold frame containing deep blue liquid like the sea and has golden stars in it. When he turns the hourglass upside-down, he can teleport anyone he wishes to along with himself to the Clock tower.

Even though he stays cooped up at the Giant Clock, his stamina and physical strength is pretty good.

## **Trivia**

* Since a lot of stairs has to be climbed before reaching the Giant Clock, Chronus uses Hourglass magic to teleport himself to the top floor if he gets tired.
* He is not as good as Airis in cooking, and prefers home-cooked food rather than eating out.
* He knows how to make hot chocolate.
