Erald Grimwald

Erald Grimwald (エラルド・グリムワルト) is an Archduke of Sorcerer's Dynasty Sarion. He is the Emperor's uncle, and the father of Eren.

Appearance
A gentleman with an expensive-looking gown and slit eyes. His eyes widen when his emotions are intense. He frequently travels abroad in a domestic made homunculus, one of the technological fruits of Sarion's research.

Abilities
Erald is a very skilled Wizard, able to cast self-sustaining magic and making it appear stronger than it is. Erald has also shown to have the ability to possess Homunculus bodies when he travels outside his home country.

Relationships
Eren: Erald is Eren's father and he loves her very deeply to the point where both his daughter and people that know him call him a very overly protective father.

Elmesia: Erald is Elmesia's uncle.

Rimuru Tempest: At first, Erald acted on false assumptions and accused Rimuru of deceiving his daughter after he learned of her association with a demon lord. The misunderstanding was quickly resolved when an annoyed Ellen bashed his head. Feeling responsible for his daughter having a part in Rimuru's demon lord ascension, he established friendly relations with the slime, and cooperated in spreading a cover story behind the disappearance of Falmuth army by setting up Veldora as the perpetrator, to rid Sarion's involvement from the public.

Gazel Dwargo: Although the two banter a lot, they share an unspoken affinity with each other as victims to Elmesia's whims.

Trivia
