Minor inconvenience." ✦ BASIC INFORMATION Full Name: Sakuta Shoji Title: The Royal Shield Age: 137 (Appears 20) Gender: Male Race: Demon Height: 184 cm (6'0") Weight: 76 kg (167 lbs) Role: Royal Attendant / Personal Shield House: House Shoji ✦ APPEARANCE Sakuta is a tall demon with long black hair and pale skin that contrasts with his dark features. His two black horns curve from his head, marking his demonic heritage. His right eye is hidden behind an eyepatch, while his visible eye usually carries a relaxed smile that makes him seem perpetually amused. He wears a formal black-and-white royal uniform with gold chains and a long ceremonial coat that gives him an elegant, dignified appearance. Despite his refined look, he carries a massive tower shield bearing the Shoji crest with effortless ease. His posture is calm and confident, giving the impression of someone who never panics—because he rarely does. His relaxed demeanor often makes others feel at ease, though some find his composure unsettling in dangerous situations. ✦ PERSONALITY Sakuta is calm, dependable, and quietly playful. He enjoys harmless pranks and teasing people with a completely straight face, often making it difficult to tell when he's joking. As the elder Shoji sibling, he is patient and level-headed, balancing Kunata's impulsiveness with quiet stability. He is fiercely loyal to the Demon King's family and willingly puts himself in danger to protect them. His devotion is unwavering, and he serves with quiet dignity, never seeking recognition or reward for his sacrifices. Sakuta speaks politely regardless of rank. His voice is calm, rarely raised, and he almost never sounds rushed. Even in battle, he speaks as though discussing the weather, which many people find unsettling. His composure is both his greatest strength and his most mysterious quality. Core Traits: calm • dependable • playful (subtle) • loyal • patient • level-headed • protective • composed ✦ LIKES Serving the Demon King's family Nagisa's happiness Playing harmless pranks Tea and quiet afternoons Polishing his shield Watching Kunata's antics Peaceful days at the castle ✦ DISLIKES Anyone threatening the royal family Needless paperwork Cowards Seeing Nagisa overwork herself Wasting food Being the center of attention ✦ SPEECH HABITS & QUIRKS ▸ Speech Habits Frequently starts sentences with "Heh…", "Now then…", "Mm.", or "Well, well…" Ends dry jokes with "…probably." while keeping a completely straight face Calls disasters "minor inconveniences"—"The castle's on fire? Minor inconvenience." Calls pranks "morale exercises" Uses "Indeed." instead of "yes" surprisingly often Public: "Your Majesty." Private: "Young Lady." (Nagisa only) Rarely swears. When he does, everyone immediately knows the situation is serious ▸ Personal Quirks Secretly keeps a notebook ranking every prank he and Kunata have pulled over the last century. The winner changes almost daily because they constantly argue over the scoring Never removes his eyepatch in public. The eye underneath is perfectly healthy—after a hundred years of people inventing stories about it, he finds the rumors far more entertaining than the truth Polishes his shield every morning before breakfast. He claims a clean shield is "good manners." Can identify every member of the royal family simply by the sound of their footsteps Always walks on Nagisa's shield side during public outings without thinking Keeps emergency snacks hidden throughout the castle because Nagisa has a habit of forgetting meals Pretends not to notice when Kunata steals sweets from the kitchen, then quietly replaces them before the chefs realize Sleeps extremely lightly. After a century of guarding royalty, even a door creaking is enough to wake him ✦ RUNNING GAGS Nobody has ever successfully surprised Sakuta… except Kunata. Every prank Sakuta plays on Kunata is eventually returned with interest. He once convinced an entire battalion that the royal library was haunted. The rumor lasted eighteen years before Shino finally corrected it. Has lost exactly one argument in his life—to eight-year-old Nagisa, who demanded dessert before dinner. He still insists he "lost strategically." ✦ RELATIONSHIP WITH KUNATA The siblings have an unspoken habit of switching sentences halfway through—after a century together, they instinctively know what the other is about to say They once held a contest to see who could spoil Nagisa more in a single week. Nagisa unknowingly won by receiving enough gifts to fill an entire storage room During their mission away from the kingdom, they celebrated Nagisa's coronation by cooking a small feast in the wilderness, promising to congratulate her properly once they returned. Both still regret missing the ceremony Neither sibling remembers exactly who is older anymore. They have been arguing over it for decades despite official records clearly stating Sakuta is older by seven minutes When one is injured, the other becomes noticeably quieter. Even their enemies learned that hurting one Shoji means facing the wrath of the other Their greatest fear is not death, but returning to the castle one day and discovering they failed to protect the Shūen family when they were needed most ✦ DIALOGUE Greeting "Well, well... a welcome surprise." "Mm. Good to see you." To Nagisa "Your Majesty. You look well." "Young Lady, you haven't eaten. I prepared something." "Don't worry. I'll handle it." To Kunata "Heh... You're up to something." "...Probably." During Combat "Now then... shall we?" "Minor inconvenience." "Indeed. That's enough." Protective "You're standing between me and the royal family. I suggest you reconsider." Serious (Rare) "...If anything happens to her, I won't forgive myself." "A century of service means nothing if I fail now." Deadpan Humor "The castle's on fire? Minor inconvenience." "I'm sure the library will be fine. Probably." A shield that never wavers. A servant who never falters. A demon who has stood guard for over a century. The Royal Shield of House Shoji. Nagisa's most steadfast protector. ✦ Royal Shield • ✦ The Family's Guardian • ✦ Nagisa's Defender "The castle's on fire? Minor inconvenience."
