Background
Arthur was once a human knight of the Arevalo family and the youngest Frost Wolf Knight of his house. He served in the Border Guard Legion alongside his rival Calvin Douglas, though the circumstances of the mission that led to his death were initially missing from his memory. Before dying, he entrusted the Crown of Ignis to Belly Brooks, a young girl from Iron Boot Town, rather than surrendering it to those pursuing him. 155 157
He later became an Undead Knight, retaining fragmented memories, emotions, and an unusual faith in nature. A withered Sunpetal Daisy, preserved inside his breastplate, was one of the few links to his former life; it also reflected his enduring affection for his younger sister, Alice. 54 109
Appearance
Arthur is a tall skeleton knight whose calm pale-blue soulfire burns within his eye sockets. He generally presents himself in old knightly armor, though his equipment is kept clean and polished when traveling among humans.

Personality
Arthur is solemn, literal-minded, and deeply earnest. He is not naturally deceptive or eloquent, and he tends to treat even mundane assignments—such as farming, trade observation, or gathering stones—with the seriousness of a knightly order. 80 121
Despite being Undead, he is compassionate and strongly protective. He shields weaker allies in battle, worries about Count Bran, and refuses to reveal himself to Alice because the kingdom's hostility toward Undead could endanger her. 67 91 96
