Rufus Albarea

Rufus Albarea (ルーファス・アルバレア) is considered to be one of the major pillars within the Four Great Noble Families, Rufus is the eldest son in the Albarea family and is as such one of the most prominent noble figures, dominating high society conversations alongside Prince Olivert. Highly trusted by his younger brother Jusis, he also happens to be fencing instructor at the imperial court. He works at the military academy as an able member of the board of directors, candidly able to mingle with commoners well. Nevertheless, as someone deemed to exist at the very center of the aristocracy, reformists regard him as a dangerous element that must be watched over carefully. In order to reestablish the imperial social order that places commoners under the rule of aristocrats, he teams up with Lord Cayenne as a General Staff Officer within the aristocratic alliance to take hold of all of the imperial dominion.
