Godrick Vorudigōdo

"Freedom is something that you need to actively acquire. It's not something that's given with no strings attached. To be free means to take responsibility, and to prepare yourself for what's to come."

- Godrick to Godrick Vorudigōdo (ゴドリック・ボロディゴド, Godrick Vorudigōdo) is currently fourth in line to the throne and one of the most powerful species of Dragon-Kin in the world. He is also one of the "Triumvirate" (The Big Three) along with Takeshi Hisagi & Yamashiro Hisagi.

Appearance & Personality
Godrick is described as someone with a charming visage, has a handsome aura that stands out and perfectly matches the description of a "young and handsome knight" in the archaic fashion. He stands near 6' 3" in height with a thick set of shoulders, compact waist and slender legs.

As described by his schoolmates in the Mage & Fighter Academy, he is a man whose physical appearance is popular with the ladies. None the less, he often shows interest with the opposite sex and usually the females would be the ones that try to approach him.

Godrick is a polite, soft-spoken intellectual, often addressing his subordinates by their given names. He rarely shows any sign of alarm or distress, and often has entire situations planned out well in advance. Whenever confronted, Godrick is casual and uncaring, attempting to draw out a conversation and make small talk, which often infuriates those he is talking to.

Godrick initially appeared to be a very kind, well-respected knight within the ranks of royalty and was looked up to by many, especially his underlings. However, this was just a mask to disguise his manipulative, and very dangerous, nature. In truth, he cares very little for his royalty name, and is willing to use almost everyone around him as pawns to achieve his goals. He is willing to stop at nothing to further his ambitions, including manipulating or killing anyone if he deems it to be necessary.

Early-Life
Godrick Vorudigōdo was born into the Vorudigōdo Clan, distinguished royalty Dragon-Kin clan that has produced superior spellswords-men for generations and holds a high position in the Magic-Knight Association. He is the 4th youngest son of the current Head Aelric Vorudigōdo and his unnamed mother, as well as the younger brother of Sigric Vorudigōdo. Unlike his siblings, Godrick was born as an imperfection and was discriminated against due to it by his family except for his younger sister who adored him, while his other family treated him as if he didn't exist. There was never a seat saved for him during any celebration and Godrick would be locked up inside his chambers where he would go for days without any food or interaction to the outside world. It was then on his ninth birthday, his father said, "You can't do anything, so don't try. You're worthless and a waste of our royalty name.", then he never said anything or looked in his direction. Unable to endure it anymore, Godrick ran from home during a thunderstorm where he had found himself lost in the deep forests that surrounded the kingdom. He cried realizing no one except his younger sister would be sad if he died. There Godrick encountered a Beast-Kin, Ouma Hisagi, a legendary warrior of Yamano. Ouma spoke with young Godrick about his problems and inspired him to pursue his dreams and never give up. Soon after leaving the Vorudigōdo Clan, Godrick and Ouma traveled to the far north back to main land of the Beast-Kin where he was introduced to the royalty family, The Hisagi Clan.
