## Biography

### Early life

Jonathan was born in 22 November 2299 Imperiya Kalendar at Alexander Palace in St. Petersburg, Russia as **Ionafan Aleksandr Lavrentiy Fyodorovich Vasilyev**; the son of the 76th Emperor of the Eurasian Empire, Fyodor Andreyevich Vasilyev, and the Imperial Consort Josephine Carter, making Jonathan the Eleventh Prince of the Empire. He was in line to be the seventeenth heir to the throne at birth.

Due to the Emperor's many affairs with other women, his mother decided to bring him and his younger sister Marianne to the Elizaveta Palace owned by the imperial family, and given to his mother by his father a year before he was born. At five years old, by December 2304, Jonathan became acquainted with her mother's closest friends whom she had known during her years as a Knight of Honor: Lord Gregory Wilson and Lady Theresa Mortmain, the Duke and Duchess of the English House of Wessex. With that, he befriended the two's children: the six-year-old Athanasius and the four-year-old Vivienne. Since then, with his younger sister, they became close friends; having Athanasius as his childhood best friend and Vivienne as his childhood sweetheart.

On July 2306, when Jonathan was six years old, his mother was assigned to take his maternal cousin, Crown Prince Leon Tamaz Antkowiak of the Georgian Empire, under her care. The Crown Prince was exiled to the Eurasian Empire after accidentally killing a noble's son. He grew close with him, too, and treated him as a brother.

Jonathan was a cheerful and jubilant child, however, he was sickly that he was mostly on bed that worried his mother very much. On 31 May 2307, Jonathan suffered his "first" worst collapse that had led to a blood transfusion. Because of this, the Emperor who've been working hard to avoid his untimely death being his favored son through the creation of "Operation Livingston", had settled him to be part of the records. Along with him had been Athanasius, Vivienne and Leon. It was said that through Operation Livingston that he had undergone medication, which in reality had been Kaio experimentations; injecting him and the records with strange viruses and venoms that were dubbed alone as Kaio which, according to their earlier researches, boost immune systems and trigger the body's potential to a higher degree as such later awakening the power of Kaio.

On 25 July 2307, after the Emperor had also taken up with the experimentation and the success of such toward others, Jonathan then took himself the experimented drugs. Just right after, as expected of the experimentation, his body reacted to it to the merge line of almost dying. His condition, however, took far much longer in recovery than expected. And yet, it was due to his health's improvement that the Emperor's other imperial consorts start plotting on putting him on a disadvantage as heir to the throne.

On 17 January 2308, roughly six months after the experimentation, the Emperor announced Jonathan's engagement to Vivienne as part of the agreement between the Empire and the English House of Wessex. This had been a political move by the imperial consorts, suggested then to the Emperor in order to not allow him to have further advantage in the future by marrying. A year later, the two were married; and since they were both children at the time, with Jonathan being nine years old and his young wife an eight years old, the consummation practice was withheld until his bride turns fourteen years old.

### Exile in the Philippines

However, less than two months after the marriage, on 11 March 2309, his mother, Imperial Consort Josephine, was assassinated and his sister, Marianne, ended up crippled. The incident drove Jonathan to seek audience with his father, the Emperor, despite the plea of his father-in-law. He accused his father for leaving his mother defenseless, even going as far as renouncing his entitlement to the throne. In response, his father banished him to the Philippines with his sister and his cousin, where they were used as a political hostage in the Gold Diamond Mining Controversy and the Martial Law in the country as part of the Treaty of Donetsk. The English House of Wessex, due to their connection to him, had decided to follow after him. His father-in-law had decided to be placed as an intelligence of the USR in the Philippines, where the rest of his family had followed.

Jonathan, Marianne and Leon were brought to stay at the Ryu household. A few members of the USR, who were loyal to his mother for being able to work with her before and believed that Jonathan is the rightful heir to the Eurasian Empire's throne, along with the members of the English House of Wessex settled nearby as his bodyguards. During their stay with the Ryu, Jonathan met Akito Ryu, with whom he did not interact initially in a friendly manner. His sister Marianne and his cousin Leon easily got closed with Akito, which made him complain about it to his best friend Athanasius. Later on, with a few assurance and insistence between one another, they later become friends.

When the Empire finally developed its Chevaliers fleet and decided to start its conquest to the remaining eastern countries, they had announced the start of the Third Pacific War on the 23 April 2310. On 10 June, the Eurasian Empire attacked and invaded the Philippines to finally seize control of the Gold Diamond mines, consequently discarding Jonathan's use as a diplomatic tool. At the outbreak of the war, Jonathan and his sister were separated from Leon who was taken by XXX, and Akito was also taken away by XXX after killing his own father. Jonathan and Marianne were protected by the English House of Wessex, wherein Lady Theresa Mortmain and his best friend Athanasius were murdered protecting them. They were then saved by Lord Gregory Wilson and surviving members of the USR.

The Third Pacific War ended on 4 July 2310 with the surrender of the Philippines. News was spread that Leon was recovered and sent back to the Eurasian Empire, and Akito was reported to be missing and acknowledged him as part of the casualty. Consumed with his own guilt and hatred for everything that happened since the death of his mother, the invasion of the Philippines, and the death of Athanasius, becoming then his resolve to seek revenge in the future, Jonathan collaborated with Gregory Wilson and the rest of the USR to have his name and Marianne's part of the casualty list. Fearing then for their safety, they hid their true identities and sought the help of the Ruslanov family, who were also part of his mother's strongest allies. This forced them to use their mother's maiden name, Carter.

His mother's murder, Athanasius and Lady Wilson's deaths, and his father's apparent lack of concern in regards to it were huge blows to Jonathan. He always felt that it was unfair for them, and therefore made it his goal to pursue a better world for Marianne. He also seeks to discover the true reason for his mother's death, as she was murdered in the Elizaveta Palace, a place terrorists would be unlikely to penetrate successfully without being noticed, if at all.

### Living as Jonathan Carter

Ever since the invasion of the Philippines, Jonathan had collaborated with his father-in-law, Lord Gregory Wilson of the English House of Wessex, and the rest of the USR loyal to his mother to begin his plans of claiming the Eurasian Empire's throne in the future. As early as 2315, just five years after, Jonathan's identity had been very well hidden and kept private by the USR's Southeast Asian Region. He basically controlled them and he was known among their circle as "Cerna Král". All of its members vowed to protect him and his sister Marianne with their lives and support his rise to the throne when the right time comes.

With the help of the Ruslanov family as well, both he and his sister managed to keep their identities hidden and enter the school owned by the family, the King Ivan the First Academy. The two live in the school's clubhouse, partially due to Marianne's disability but mostly in order to hide away from the prying eyes of the Empire and its army. Jonathan acted, for those years as an ordinary Eurasian student, all the while gaining intelligence and information about the workings of the Empire, especially in the Southeast Asian Region and that of Philipp with the USR. It had been dubbed by members of the USR as the long brewing plan of overthrowing and reforming the old and unjustly ways of the Empire.

However, even though he posed as a student and a hidden leader of the USR's Southeast Asian Region, Jonathan barely shown interest to his studies and the information that he gained. He usually skip his classes by spending the time reading or sleeping in the rooftop, or even to gamble with rich nobles and businessmen in a game of chess that earned him rewards that is beyond to the allowance that the Ruslanov family and USR offer to him. For him, the repetitive order of his life had tended him to lose interest of its commonality. He had also shown interest in pursuing higher education after high school with a forensic science course. It denotes that he had been planning to set forth his actions at any time, but had been waiting for the moment that the entire succession order is in chaos; like the death of the current emperor and his half-siblings started killing off one another. It resembles the moment that his father, the current emperor, had risen to the throne.

### Awakening of Kaio

Seven years after the war, Jonathan continued living in peace as a student all the while receiving information from the USR. On 25 February, he won a chess match against another corrupt noble of the Empire after a record of 8 minutes and 32 seconds. A game that had been played at the Alexander Hotel and Casino, with a winning money of half a million zlato. He took half of the money, while the remaining half was shared equally between XXX, and XXX, his high school classmate and friend. At that time, he received USR intelligence that a SIEGE "package" finally arrived to the Philippines that is personally funded by Second Prince Sergei Fyodorovich Vasilyev, and also a predicted terror attack in the Manila Settlement's nearby ghettos in the next few days.

The following day, Jonathan was with XXX as they picked up desserts that were ordered by XXX Ruslanovna when the operation of the Ma-I Ophir commenced throughout the Manila Settlement and to its nearby Ayala Ghetto. Jonathan who was separated by XXX during the terror attack was taken as hostage by Masque vigilantes, and later been accused of being a member of the terrorist group by the Eurasian Military's Delta-7 Squad. He begged to be spared, saying that he wasn't truly a terrorist, and before being caught in conflict, the USR had caused a diversion and he escaped with Vivienne Wilson. However, the two were found and were held at gunpoint that had coincidentally awakened his Kaio. Bearing the Kaio's power of Complete Submission, he had ordered the squad to die, resulting then to their suicides.

### Later life

Five decades after the end of Jonathan's dark reign, Jonathan called Vivienne, who was staring at one of his portraits as an emperor, and was asked if Emperor Jonathan, whom the masses called as the "Emperor of Changes and Miracles" will be able to make another miracle. He replied that the emperor will show another set of miracles; wherein truth, he'll continue making miracles as X Code. It was noted that he had visited Akito's grave (the one as Percival Fenette) as part of his first year's death anniversary, and that of Athanasius's. It was also revealed that three decades ago, Jonathan returned back to his work as X Code after faking his and Vivienne's deaths. The two then boarded a train from Manila heading to Quezon Province, trailing the places of where his rebellion had led, where he was asked by a young girl what he does. He then removed his sunglasses, revealing his right eye encompassed with Kaio, and answered while smiling, "I made bad people go away."

## Physical description

Jonathan is described to be a relatively handsome young man with unruly ebony hair that tapers his nape, enough to be tied, and striking dark blue amethyst-colored eyes, which he inherited from his mother and father, respectively. He also has a fair complexion, almost pale looking; somewhat scrawny, having little muscles, and being rather lanky and lean. In spite of this, he is considerably tall, apparently being slightly taller than the rest of the male characters around his age. He is also said to have beautiful hands; his hands are lean with long and slim fingers, clear joints and clear cut nails.

As part of the Operation Livingston which resulted to Kaio, Jonathan is mentioned to have a long stretch of scar from the corner of his left ear until the lower end of his spinal cord. According to his records, it is through this way that his body impulsively reacted to the injection and had resulted the scientists to use this method of transmitting their formula for his body to take in compared to simply through injection. It is also mentioned that this scar occasionally aches, especially when the Kaio power was awakened, reawakened, and had reached its momentum.

At the start of his use with Kaio, the power manifests onto his non-dominant left eye. Using it often had resulted for him to instantly lose control of it that it basically appears active or not uncontrollably, and until he manages to control its cause and be aware of its new nature, he had used contact lenses (an eye patch for Parsifal Wagner). Using his powers had also resulted for the Kaio to encompassed his other eye, and despite knowing the root of his Kaio becoming a runaway one, he continued using contact lenses. During the Great Shift, however, Arnelson de Anturgnia punctured his left eye that causes him to lose sight of it and the ability to use the Kaio on that eye. The wound never healed, and he decided to cover that "scarred" portion of his face with his hair as side bangs.

## Personality

Jonathan is a highly intelligent individual who is also calm, sophisticated, and arrogant due to his aristocratic upbringing. While at school, Jonathan conducts himself as a sociable, likeable, and often easy-going student. However, in reality, this is a mask to hide his true nature. While as X Code, his true nature is expressed. His charisma and beliefs in justice gain him the trust and respect of many soldiers and leaders.

He is known for having a very stoic personality. He never cared about schoolwork, seeing the entire thing as trivial, even though his intellect would make it easy for him. He enjoys seeking out challenges, often playing chess against nobility and rich businessmen. In general, Jonathan takes most day-to-day affairs with open disinterest, often not even noticing the affection of others, especially Anthea, his fellow classmate; though it may highly due to his faithfulness to his marriage vows despite he and Vivienne had been young during their marriage and divorce is an option.

In battle, Jonathan is very cold and tactical. He is willing to sacrifice anyone, civilians and military alike, if that is what it takes to achieve the objective. He often puts the outcome as a simple "mathematical overestimation". But thanks to Marianne and Vivienne, Jonathan is able not to go to such lust for blood.

Many characters have noted that Jonathan is also quite selfish, as his desire to recreate the world comes from his desire to avenge his mother's and Athanasius's apparent death, and Marianne's sake. However, in time, he realizes that this goal is not just for them, but for the entire world.

Despite his coldness and ruthlessness in battle, he can be a rather compassionate person to his friends and loved ones. To Marianne, he is an overprotective older brother; to Vivienne and their children, he is a faithful, loving and protective husband and doting father; and to Akito, a loyal friend despite the fact that the two are enemies. Jonathan, at first glance, seems to have relatively little concern for the well-being of his subordinates; but in reality, he does care about them, seeing them as valuable allies. In truth, Jonathan values the relationship between a leader and subordinate very much that he didn't force anyone from them to follow him with the use of his Kaio, and he let them join him on their own free-will; though, in times, he has shown preference on occasion, especially with Leila and Jules.

## Skills & abilities

### Kaio

Jonathan's Kaio, which he receives from the experiments conducted to him during the Operation Livingston when he was young and after his close encounter with death, gives him the "Power of Complete Submission", allowing him to plant commands within a person's mind upon eye contact in a manner comparable to hypnosis. The activation of his Kaio is visually represented to be manifested in his non-dominant left eye, making his eye bloody red in color with a circling silver halo outlining the pupil. Commands dictated in this state are written into the minds of the designated targets once the Kaio projects from his eye to theirs.

Aside from such, the excessive Kaio virus that had been experimented on his body had caused for his original Power of Complete Submission to be tied with a sense of temporal warping, a combination of time manipulation and reality warping. Though it has a much greater limitation than the other one, Jonathan is only one of the few who had done so. In the end, it plays a pivotal strength of his for the odds to favor him most of the time. Also, his temporal warping had allowed him to shape both the present and the future. His temporal warping ability is denoted as "Power of the Present", contrary to his father's "Power of the Past" and Vivienne's "Power of the Future".

Jonathan could initially toggle Kaio activation at will, but subsequently lost this control and suffered from an affliction known as "runaway Kaio". Later on, he had learned to manage it and again activating it in his will but not completely as there are hints of his struggles to do so.

In order to avoid randomly commanding anyone, Vivienne gives Jonathan a special contact lens that will block his Kaio. This, however, indicates that his Kaio will eventually grow powerful enough to render it almost ineffective. His Kaio evolves to cover both of his eyes by pushing his Kaio to the limit. He receives a second contact lens to cover it later. Again, just like the first instance of his runaway Kaio, he also learned to control it but still struggling to completely have full control like the first times.

### Immortality

Due to his sub-Kaio ability of Power of the Present that had a strong connection with time manipulation, it is not a surprising feat for Jonathan to achieve immortality. Aside from having a Kaio ability linked with time, he had also reached the maximum limit of his power as a Kaio user as it encompassed both of his eyes and he had experienced death then to be revived by the Kaio virus coursing his veins at the same time as of his temporal warping. Since experiencing a mortal death, Jonathan stops showing signs of aging and remains youthful. His intellectual capability also excels and he heals from any wound much faster, even to the extent of a death kill that he could recover from in a given amount of time.

### Intellect and Chess

Even without his Kaio, Jonathan is a formidable opponent. His greatest weapon is his prodigious mind, possessing a genius-level intellect, and is capable of devising and executing strategies with incredible speed and precision. As a child, he was a brilliant chess player, besting any opponent who played against him. However, there are only two person that he was unable to defeat his older brother Sergei and his childhood best friend Athanasius, where their games always end as a tie or a stalemate. As a teenager, he utilized his masterful skills in real combat, leading a small band of terrorists to victory against overwhelming odds. He could manipulate people and factions with well-spoken speeches and clever deceptions.

Jonathan's mental acuity had been repeatedly demonstrated throughout the series; ranging from his superb skills in playing chess to instantly coming up with counteractions and very well good predictions, where one will always be correct. It might be hinted that the odds does favor him due to his temporal warping ability. Akito once stated that Jonathan had written a book filled with more than a hundred theories of his guesses on what will happen fifty years after the execution of Refrain that are written until the very last detail. His intellect is also shown when he was able to program the countermeasure of FELEIRA in nineteen seconds, typing then at an incredibly fast speed.

Jonathan also devised a secret sign language containing more than five hundred words. He also has a very good memory that he was able to memorize every essential details in all students of King Ivan the First Academy just as he had said to Henrique Leite on their first meeting. He also proves his tactical ability by predicting the Prime's actions exactly thanks to his study of past battles.

### Physical

Physically, Jonathan is underwhelming. He possesses the physical prowess of a teenager who engages in little to no strenuous physical ability. Thus, one of Jonathan's traits is the inability to run very fast or for any substantial period of time. This is usually played for comedic effect, as Jonathan is constantly outpaced by his classmates in every situation, and even the most simple tasks requiring manual labor exhaust him before he manages to accomplish anything significant. This joke is taken to its logical conclusion, when he is supposed to attend remedial physical education classes, but skips them as often as possible. This creates problems when Eva and Jules pose as Jonathan where the two are more athletic than Jonathan himself; lamenting the problem and decides to have the two attend his gym classes to fix it.

However, this weakness is much more of a farce that he puts in the face of others in his fear of being the center of attention. In reality, he is a capable runner and had been trained in hand combat. His reaction time is also impressive.

It was revealed that Jonathan had been sickly and was week as a child. He was diagnosed to have a psychogenic dyspnea that had linked for majority of his organs almost failing back then. It was thanks to the Kaio's experimental drugs that make him less sickly and had allowed to be a little athletic; for it wasn't the drugs, he might be long dead already.

Jonathan is also shown to be very talented at most domestic skills including cooking, sewing, laundry and etc.; it has been stated that this comes as a result of taking care of himself and Marianne for seven years. He has been shown to be an excellent cook, and is usually the one cooking the food for the parties held by the Student Council.

### Fighting style

Jonathan also has some skills with firearms and had been trained in hand combat as mentioned above. He usually brandishes a Eurasian Empire's pistol when threatening someone, a pistol that he surely had commissioned from Gregory or Vivienne Wilson. He seems to be a very sharpshooter as well that even if he is almost more than two to three meters away from Eleanora, he was able to shot her straight to shot her straight to his intent. Basically, it may be because of his intellectual calculations that he was able to do so or he had been trained with it as well, the latter being most likely.

His Chevalier piloting skills though has been shown only above average. It was revealed that his mother, Josephine, taught him a few of its concept as a child. While Jonathan uses Chevaliers that have superior specs, he tends to be overwhelmed by Akito and other skilled pilots with faster models. That's why, even Jonathan usually pilots his own Chevalier, the Simoun series, he is typically accompanied by either Leila, Jules or Vivienne, who were both elite Chevalier pilots and members of his personal squad. After commandeering the Elder, Jonathan co-pilots it with Vivienne, controlling the weapons and command functions while Vivienne handles navigation and flight. He is mostly seen piloting a new generation of the Simoun because it was mostly destroyed in battles, to Rizalyn's dismay that sometimes he intentionally needs to destroy the Chevalier. Though, his own Chevalier, the Simoun, has the most powerful defense of any Chevalier. He also shows a level of ambidexterity as he is able to control either side of the Simoun's keyboard-based controls with both hands. Though he could not defeat them, Jonathan managed to hold his own against the Knights of Olimp during most battles that involve them.

## Possessions

* Chevaliers
* Weapons
* Others

One of the noteworthy possession that Jonathan has was the shoelace bracelet. It was a black shoelace with red pattern. There is no mention if it is a survival bracelet like a paracord, but it is very much inclined to resemble a rastaclat one. However, it was said to be made and actually owned by Athanasius Wilson, but was then given to Jonathan before the previous' death.

## Relationships

### Romance

* Vivienne Wilson
* Leila Izlar
* Anthea Stavra

Jonathan first met Vivienne Wilson on 16 December 2304; when Lord Gregory Wilson and Lady Theresa Mortmain, Duke and Duchess of he English House of Wessex, had visited his mother, Imperial Consort Josephine, in their home at the Elizaveta Palace, St. Petersburg, Russia. At that time, he also befriended Vivienne's older brother Athanasius; and since then, along with Jonathan's younger sister Marianne, the four of them had been the closest of friends. A year later, both Athanasius and Vivienne, along with Jonathan's maternal cousin, Crown Prince Leon Tamaz Antkowiak of the Gregorian Empire, became patent experiments for the Operation Livingston; and on 31 May 2307, Jonathan also followed right after his first worst collapse and blood transfusion. It had been noted through Vivienne's memory that due to her and her brother's blood compatibility with Jonathan, they are usually together, and two months later, with the success of Jonathan's recovery, they were also released.

Roughly six months after, on 17 January 2308, Emperor Fyodor Andreyevich Vasilyev of the Eurasian Empire announced Jonathan and Vivienne's engagement, which was a political move made by the imperial consorts to not allow Jonathan have a marriage of advantage in the future when he had recovered from his illness. A year later, the two of them were married but due to their age, the consummation practice was withheld until they were of age.

They remained as friends even during the time that Jonathan was exiled to the Philippines with his sister and cousin, one that the English House of Wessex condemned and marked to be their devotion and protection of him. It had been mentioned that they were childhood sweethearts. Right after the end of the Empire's invasion of the Philippines, the two remained in contact and had entered school at King Ivan the First Academy, becoming part of the Student Council at the same time. It was also revealed that around their time as junior high schools, the two had finally consummated their engagement and had been sexual active. It had been evident as the Student Council would tease the two of them about taking things slowly.

It was also revealed that all throughout, Jonathan never calls her by her first name and preferred to call her "Lhoudevhic". They were seen to be quite too close to one another, despite Jonathan showing displeasure most of the time due to their public display of affection. And their relationship had been tested countless of times throughout the series; as it had been both seen as a contractual one or been forced to since they share the same goal as with avenging Athanasius and seeing the Empire fall, or because of them being forced to marry at a young age. No matter what the case is, it had been shown countless of times as well that they truly love one another.

During the one year time skip that happens during the so-called Blank Year, it was revealed that Vivienne disguised as Ella O'Connor, who becomes his fiancée, with him as Parsifal Wagner. At that time, she decided to find him in order to save him from the manipulation of the Empire. Their relationship strengthen as they became protective of one another.

After Jonathan seized and ascended to the throne, the two of them renewed their marriage vows and she was crowned as his Empress Consort instead of being the Imperial Consort. She never stood up against the Refrain but always try to stop it from happening. A month before the completion of Refrain, Vivienne decided to separate ways to not bear that pain of seeing him slowly counting the days. Refrain though never happened when Akito found out that she was pregnant with Jonathan's child.

The two of them have five children: Mikhail, Anastasya, the twins Vladimir and Veronika, and Pavel. According to Mikhail, their love strengthens each passing day.

Two decades after his reign as Emperor with her, the two decided to fake their deaths in order to fulfill Jonathan's "contract" with Akito, and in order not to raise suspicions of their age. Until the end, it was shown that they are still together and deeply in love where Jonathan stated that, "If you are a witch, then I'll be your warlock. Just as how the sun has her moon and stars."
