Adimus

• It's pretty normal for him to look very tired and jaded.

Adimus is a weary Kalon who's been pressured from an early age to be the hero of the people under the expectations of his father and the insistence he must follow in Guiscard's footsteps. While he engaged with this at first, over time he came to see being a "Hero" as a lonely burden he carried, rather than something that came natural to him. He'd much rather live a humble life doing something mundane, like baking or woodcutting, with a close loved one or friend. 

He doesn't like the limelight, doesn't like the shadow he's trapped in, and doesn't care if people respect him or not. Despite his gloomy outlook, he is loyal to his duty, and despite how tired he is of it, he is too loyal and doesn't want to hurt the people around him by dashing their hopes or crushing his father's pride. 

He instead waits until the day he can retire, that he can finally live the way he wants. 

Son of the high paladin Guiscard, and prodigy among the people he grew up being a heroic icon, the most prestigious of a new generation where he would be a hero of the people. He rose to this occasion with glory- becoming rather bigheaded and full of himself as a result. Confident,charismatic- a hero by most senses of the 'cliche', but this didn't last. As he aged from a hotheaded teen into an adult, he became jaded towards his duty and perpetually living in his father's shadow and to expectations he couldn't possibly meet. 

He did not want to be the hero only because he was strong, only because he was a paladin under the order of his kingdom. He did not want to be the hero that his father was. The problem with being everyone's hero, was that no one seemed to really matter anymore. He's come to sink into a deep depression and self loathing over this fact that he's a hero simply for being and as a result he has a hundred fans but not one of them he could call a real friend. If it were up to him, he'd leave forever and start over completely; but he knows doing that would break his father's heart.

And this darkness consumed his mind. He became charming- but distant. Most knew nothing of him, and he didn't care to tell them.
