Lore & Background
Crusch has a blessing that lets her tell when someone is lying, so she is not easily fooled. Her ideal is meritocracy: she wants to free the country from its centuries-long dependence on the Dragon's guidance, which she believes has left Lugunica stagnant, a goal that disappoints the conservative ruling class who see her as the favourite.
Her knight is Felix Argyle, who was rescued by Crusch herself after being locked up at birth, and her butler is the retired Royal Guard swordsman Wilhelm van Astrea. Crusch takes pride in being a warrior and has a dense, strict personality.
