## About the Character

### Official Description

Selphine (セルフィーネ) is a leading character in the series.

Princess Selphine Rughzenhaide is the sole heiress to the Kingdom of Rughzenhaide after her father, King Vhalar. Our energetic, active princess with a still-green personality sharply contrasting her steadfast heart. Her energetic and youthful demeanour would appear as that of any ordinary growing girl's but as heiress to the throne, Selphine had inherited a manakravte ability exclusive to the Royal Family of Rughzenhaide, the Path-Down manakravte. The Path-Down bestows the experiences, memories, and wisdom of the old kings and the present, unto the designated successor to the throne of Rughzenhaide. Currently, Selphine lacks the means to access this treasure trove of life lessons.

Her sense of justice is twice as strong as any other, leading her to hotheadedly rush headlong into things whenever it calls her to action on a frequent basis. She gives the impression of a resourceful young woman, but in fact still has much to learn about being a leader.

Selphine views her childhood friend and Royal Guardian, Ritona Reighnvhasta, as a role model worthy of her admiration, and the older sister she never had, though her nosy behavior easily ignites Ritona’s temper. If Selphine's obsessive curiosity ever got the best of her, Ritona would always be there to guide her back with a stern, yet affectionate lecture.

Being far from picky, Selphine loves good food; her favorite being pomegranates.

### StP Official Description

The ninth generation of the Rughzenhaides and future ruler of the kingdom. She has a vibrant and lively personality, yet has difficulty becoming close with people. She empathizes strongly with Ritona, who is a close childhood friend of hers, having lost her own mother to the same illness as Ritona's parents. Lately she has been having trouble concentrating, sleeping 16 hours or more in a day, and misplacing things, and is worried that this is due to the effects of the Path-down.

She has a bad habit of snatching away food to snack on, especially her favorite, pomegranates. Currently she is waging a fierce war with Mili, the head of the kitchen; Selphine tries to sneak pomegranates out to eat, while Mili does her best to stop her.
