Werther Ortis

Werther Ortis (ウェルター オルティス; Uerutā Orutisu) is a member of the Holy Knights, the Elite Unit of the Rune Knight tasked by the Magic Council to eliminate the most dangerous Dark Mages the world has the offer. Called the Bile Knight (胆汁騎士;Tanjū kishi) for is choice of attire and his extremely sour and unpleasant disposition, Werther is man loved by few but feared by many, and he has cemented himself as possibly the most efficient and ruthless hunter within the unity short of his boss Azriel.

Werther does not use nor he cares about learning Caster Mage. Instead, he fights only with his own trusted shield Kethaka, a legendary weapon which nullify any magical attack at the cost of his magic. From that, he gained the codename Castiel. Such weapon is directly linked to his own grim view of the world: when he was a kid, he was kidnapped by many Zeref cultists who sought to unveil the secret of the weapon, and used many kids with magical power to unlock its strength. He was the only one found compatible, but at the cost of years of tortures and hellish experiment. Werther, however, was not broken by such treatment: with his own weapon he fought his way to freedom though a path of cultists bodies. After few years as a wander mercenary, he joined the ranks of the Rune Knights and climbed their ranks until he became an Holy Knight. From that position, he seeks to make pay every dark mages he can for having ruined his life, and preventing them to do on others what he suffered.
