Clavius

Story[]

Clavius became king when his older brother Eltrio renounced his claim to the throne and disappeared. With this, Clavius was forced to fulfill the promise of peace left by his older brother, which was to wed his son with the daughter of the Kingdom of Trodain. His son, Prince Charmles, is spoiled and selfish, something that greatly disappoints Clavius to no end.

He originally asks Hero (who he says reminds him someone) to help his son get an Argon Heart in the trial (which is a rite of passage for all heirs to the Argonian throne) in exchange for use of the Magic Mirror to find Dhoulmagus. He almost finds pride in his son, until he witnesses Charmles buying a larger heart from a merchant and presenting it to him instead of the heart he already had. When the hero presents him with the real Argon heart, Clavius says that he would not have cared how big it was. Although not explicitly stated as such, this might also have been part of the test. This, however, proves that Charmles is too immature to take the throne and a wife. Nevertheless, he allows the hero to use the Magic Mirror as per the agreement.

In the original ending of the story, he scolds the Prince for his deception after The Hero and his friends crash the wedding and rescue Medea from his clutches, revealing that he knows the truth. However, in the special ending, which can be obtained by completing the Dragovian Trials and learning that the Hero is the son of Eltrio, thereby making him Clavius' nephew by birthright, the hero can then reveal his lineage on the eve of Charmles and Medea's wedding, and although he wishes he could he can't make the Hero the new prince, the pact is indeed sealed after long last.
