Sebek Zigvolt

Sebek Zigvolt is a first-year in Diasomnia. He's very delighted to be able to enter Night Raven College with Malleus, whom he respects very much. He often butts heads with Silver over their differing opinions.

Appearance
Sebek is a tall, pale skin, sturdy-looking young boy with green hair and green eyes.

In his uniform outfit, he wears black and green hat and coat with white collar shirt and black tie inside. He also wears a pair of black gloves, black pants with green line and long black boots. He has several belts on his waist with two of them holding his wand and some accessory.

Personality
Sebek is extremely loud, hot-blooded, and prideful. Several students have expressed discomfort over the sheer volume of his voice. Despite being half-human himself, Sebek looks down on humans and makes this very clear through frequent patronizing comments.

However, he is also an honest person, and will openly acknowledge others (human or not) for their talents or other impressive skills. He is blunt and not afraid to express his thoughts. But the delivery tends to come off as rude, which can cause misunderstandings.

Sebek greatly respects Malleus and Lilia, whom he respectively calls Young Master (若様, Wakasama) and Master Lilia (リリア様, Lilia-sama). He becomes much more polite and meeker when addressing them. His ultimate goal is to someday become a suitable knight for Malleus, and he trains hard everyday for this sole purpose. Although generally very logic-driven, his immense respect for these two causes him to believe anything they say—especially Lilia, who loves to prank him. Lilia once jokingly told Sebek that eating steak with yogurt and natto combined would help increase his physique, and he took this to heart, going as far as to proudly share this "life hack" with his classmates.

Apparently, one of the reasons he admires Malleus so much is because "his ideas are so grand, that he [Sebek] can't even begin to understand them."

Background
Sebek's mother is a nocturnal faerie and his father is a magic-less human. He also has a grandfather and an older brother and sister. His dad works as a dentist in Briar Valley, which Sebek has always found weird because he's not even able to use magic (when the Valley practically runs on magic alone). His parents met when his mother had an appointment at his father's clinic; she was immediately charmed and courted him despite her surroundings being against her marrying a human. Currently, she works at the clinic as his assistant.

While his parents were busy, a young Sebek would either spend time with his siblings or run off to visit his grandpa. The reason salmon carpaccio is his favorite food is because his siblings would cook it for him when they'd go fishing together, so it reminds him of home. According to Malleus, Sebek's grandfather shares his hot temper.

Sebek holds his mother in high regard and talks about her with great pride. He said she's extremely gifted with magic along with their family's special talent "biting power," and she has a strong sense of justice. His opinion of his dad, on the other hand, is much different—his dad seems very loving and often showers his children in praises, sweets, and gifts, but it drives Sebek crazy. He doesn’t understand how his mother saw any appeal in him.
