Malleus Draconia/Background

Childhood
Malleus is the Crown Prince of Briar Valley and grew up in the Royal Castle surrounded by magic. Because of his position, he was not allowed to go out much and spent a lot of time alone in the castle. He ate most of his meals alone, even on his birthdays. He ate whole birthday cakes because he never had anyone to share it with but his grandmother would send him a birthday card every year with rose seeds that he would add to his rose garden. Having to eat cakes whole lead to Malleus disliking them because of the heartburn he got after finishing everything.

Lilia was his caretaker since Malleus was young. Lilia mentioned Malleus had an eggshell on his face when he was young, implying he was born from a dragon egg. At some point, Lilia gave Malleus a palm-sized virtual pet known as "Gao Gao Drakon-kun" as a souvenir. He seems to treasure it dearly, and continues to take care of his pet in Night Raven College. His grandmother is the queen of Briar Valley. He's stated that her magic surpasses his own. According to Malleus, she is his "only blood relative," (although he was likely referring to his living relatives in this instance). He mentioned his parents during his trip in Scalding Sands as he ponders over past and present.

Malleus once set Briar Valley ablaze during a Halloween lantern lighting ceremony in his youth, as he did not know how to adjust his magical output.

At Night Raven College
