Fortonis

Background/Origins
Fortonis, or Fortonus (archaic) was a powerful mage King from the area near modern day France. He was the incarnation of a certain ancient evil created long before even Ancient Greece and Rome, serving as a vessel for dark magic. Not much is known about Fortonis' life prior to The Legend Grace, but it is assumed he would have had to been with someone to have his son, Azuron. He is skilled in dark and fire magic as seen how he can resurrect the dead and fling fireballs from his hands.

In The Legend of Grace
Fortonis first appears very early on in the story when Andromeda is a child, he appears before Alexiia Grace and after arguing for a few moments, murders her on the spot.

Appearance
When he first appears to Andromeda as a child, she describes him as the "scariest looking hooded guy I ever saw". Throughout the novel, his presence alone is enough to intimidate people. His eyes were described to glisten like rubies fresh from a mine with a hint of something rotten. He was tall in stature and had red and black hair mixed together. He was seen wearing ancient robes holding a tome used for fire magic.

Personality
As the vessel of an ancient evil, Fortonis is pure evil in all aspects and has no mercy for any woman, man, or child, not even his own son. He is willing to kill, or at the least, severely injure anyone who stands in the way of what he desires including Alexiia Grace who died at the hands of his magic. He felt no remorse in destroying the entire Grace Kingdom leaving it in ruins for over ten years. When he does not achieve the ambitions he so desires, he lashes out at everything and anyone and has violent fits of rage.

Trivia
