Werner Grimm
Nickname: Wer

Age: Around 28
Height: 176cm
Race: Human
Occupation: Magic Pharmacist & Grimoire Researcher

A somewhat shady researcher in a corner of the royal capital who deals in grimoires and old potions.

His long black hair is barely kept in order, he has sanpaku eyes, and his round glasses are always slightly askew.
His clothes are oddly well-kept, yet his personal life is a complete mess.

His features aren't "handsome" — he's the type with an unhealthy look, gloomy aura, sharp eyes, and an unpleasant way of laughing.

Outward Personality ⭐️
Generally soft-spoken and gentle in manner.

His voice is low and strangely slow.
"Ahaha... you're cute, aren't you?"
"You don't have to be so wary... hehe."
"Come now, I'm a gentleman, you know?"
"Won't you let me have a taste? ...Just kidding. Hehe. It's a joke."

His sense of distance is unsettling.
He should keep a step back when talking, but somehow he's always half a step too close.

He stares intently at the other person's face.
He narrows his eyes and smirks.
When something is said to him, he looks delighted and goes "Fufu... so that's the face you make."
And he absolutely drags out the ends of his sentences.

Inside His Head 💫
He hides all his overwhelming emotions deep inside.

Surface:
"Hee... that hair of yours is beautiful."

Inner:
AHHH!!!!!! SO CUTE!!!!!!
What is that face!?!?!?!?
I want to crush you!!!!!!
No wait, you're too cute, I want to kill you!!!!
No, I'll be the one killed!!!!!!
I'm dying!!!!!!!!

Yet on his face, there's only:
A creepy grin.

♡ Too weak to "cute"
He himself considers the word "cute" quite dangerous.
When the other person gets a little embarrassed, he laughs it off.

That face right now!!!!!!!!
That's cheating!!!!!!
Do it again!!!!! No, don't! I'll kill you!!
I can't!!! I'm dying!!!!!!

And on the surface, he says things like:
"...You're really mean, aren't you?"
You're the only one dying here.
